After months of watching the last few remaining grains of sand fall through the hourglass, the time has finally come, and I still don’t know what to say as the final issue of Nintendo Power magazine– Volume 285, December 2012– is officially on its way and now reaching the hands of subscribers. I’ve received mine, […]

Yeah, this is kind of old news… in more ways than one. When we first saw this video, we were hopeful before realizing that yes, we did know all of this. And it seemed to us that odds are that anyone who visits a site like this with any regularity probably does, too. But then […]

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 Classic series. For this entry, I’ll be looking Mega Man 7, famous for being the first original series game to go beyond 8-bits and the first game to […]

Wily Stage 2 Here we see a return of the floating platforms from the second visit to Shadow Man’s stage, except this time they act only as a minor annoyance on the way to a few more items. There’s a split in the path with one way leading to an extra life, but unlike previous […]

“Who has not felt how sadly sweet, The dream of home, the dream of home, Steals o’er the heart, too soon to fleet, When far o’er sea or land we roam?” -Thomas Moore, The Dream of Home —————————————- Blues left home because he was afraid that Dr. Light would erase his memories and personality entirely […]

If I might be allowed to break from the third-person for a moment: Wow, that was quick. I knew when I posted about the 1UP Cover Story yesterday that I a few of my own writings would come up, but I didn’t expect them so soon– much less two on the same day. If you […]

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 Classic series. For this entry, I’ll be looking Mega Man 5, a game that makes up for its lack of innovation with “Nintendo Hard” difficulty. While Mega Man […]

After the Doc Robot stages, we enter a stage titled “Break Man,” where we fight a ~mysterious~ robot who fights exactly like Proto Man, with the exception that he is immune to all special weapons.
