A Small Glimpse at the Origins of Mega Man X

This preview image of Mega Man X comes from GameFan Vol. 1 issue 9. It’s been thrown around here and there, but my buddy AWD! just tossed this high quality scan at me. The issue probably came out close to the middle of 1993. From the looks of the screenshot shown the game was pretty […]

The Great Mega Man Finger Phenomenon

This is a curious tale I’ve been thinking of writing up for some time now, and was inspired by yesterday’s Press The Buttons article about the “Capcom Turnaround.” I referenced this account at the end of the report, and amazingly enough, more of you were interested in that last line than in the PTB article!
