Cossack Stage 4 The path to Cossack starts off with some refills, an E-Tank, and a nice view of the night sky. Pakatto and Jumbig are easily dealt with by now, and we’ve already met both in worse situations. TMMN Staff

Previews, the catalog for comic book distributor Diamond, has updated with a new listing which many of you have no doubt been eagerly awaiting: The D-Arts action figures of Bass and Treble from Bandai and Bluefin Tamashii Nations! From Tamashii Nations! Previously available only as a Tamashii Web Shop exclusive in Asia, Tamashii Nations proudly […]

Capcom Unity has just announced that the limited edition 25th anniversary statue of Mega Man first shown at PAX East is now available for pre-order in the Capcom Store. “This was originally announced as a SDCC 2013 exclusive,” notes Community Manager Brett Elston, “but the reaction was so strong we’re opening the floodgates early and […]

Okay, technically it’s Mega Neko, a new Mega Man-inspired t-shirt now available for $24.99 over at Pengew Apparel. Inspired by the Japanese Maneki-neko statue, which is said to bring its owners good luck, the description reads “This little kitten will bring you good luck. Wait, not just good luck. MEGA GOOD LUCK! Also, a few […]

Okay, so maybe that’s not as appealing as it sounds, though Bubble Man’s stage was a good choice of backdrop. From what we can tell, this was made in an otherwise-unknown public restroom. Scroll down to see inside one of the toilet stalls. Source, via Haydn Dalton’s Twitter, by way of Protodude. TMMN Staff

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JRWryTQDK4o Are you tired of the Harlem Shake yet? If so, it turns out you’re not the only one. Watch as Dr. Wily discovers it in the 16th of the fad’s 15 minutes of fame; suffice to say, everyone else around is over it. Thanks for the tip, GeminiSparkSP! TMMN Staff

Cossack Stage 3 and Music This stage… is an autoscroller. I’m going to be honest here; no matter what I say about the design, I’m always going to hate this stage because I can’t stand this mechanic in platformers. It does raise tension for newcomers by adding a time limit, but for experienced players or […]

Update: Slag everything but the statue for the next two paragraphs– Joystiq clarifies that apparently “Capcom has clarified Elston’s comments, saying that a new Mega Man game has not been confirmed. The company is having “ongoing discussions about Mega Man,” but it “won’t announce anything until something is ready.” Well, it was nice for the […]

Now here’s a bit of an oddity. When TMMN reader “shinichi” mailed us with the tip, it teased us with Ruby-Spears Mega Man merchandise that we “never knew existed,” but this one is actually quite familiar to us. Back in the heyday of the early 90s, you weren’t likely to find a lot of Mega […]

The ninth chapter of “Worlds Collide” may mark the 250th issue of Archie’s long-running Sonic the Hedgehog comic book series, but it sounds like it will be Mega Man‘s cast who steal the show! Here’s the newest solicitation from Midtown Comics: (W) Ian Flynn (A) Ben Bates & Various (CA) Patrick Spaz Spaziante, Ben Hunzeker […]

Cossack Stage 2 After warping in, we find ourselves presented with a choice of two ladders. It’s unfortunate that nothing else of note was done with this room, but the following room is neat. The Minoans will both drop immediately if we take the left path, but Mega Man will be safe on the ladder […]

As part of our celebration of the Mega Man series hitting its 25th anniversary, we are featuring a look back at many of the games of the Mega Man series. This time, I’m looking at Mega Man for Game Gear, the rare, odd game published by US Gold, developed by Freestyle, and licensed by Capcom for SEGA’s bulky black response to the Game Boy.  Growing […]
