Here’s a nice little treat you weren’t expecting. While not a new Mega Man album entirely, the game arrangement album “Zoku Fami Compi” (meaning Continued Famicom Compilation) is set to include some work from Mega Man and Mega Man 2.

After skirting the razor’s edge in Cut Man’s stage, we blaze forward to Fire Man’s stage (with its music). We start off going through a few corridors with Screwdrivers. There’s not much to these when they’re all level with you, but they at least make you walk over one of them. The next part is […]

Why does it seem like everyone wants Mega Man dead? Dr. Wily, fanfic authors… some would say Capcom… and now, these guys. That’s right, after about a month and a half wait, Mega Man Dies at the End has finally premiered on Machinima’s YouTube channel! …we just hadn’t gotten around to posting it, what with […]

Just a few items of note regarding Street Fighter x Tekken we wanted to get out there, for those of you interested in or considering purchasing the game.

After blasting through Bomb Man‘s stage, we now arrive at Cut Man’s stage (Music). Cut Man starts of with a few platforms and Helis. The stage is also filled with blocks that can be picked up with the Super Arm, strongly hinting at the boss’s weakness. The next section is defended by two Mambus, one […]

Getting to be kind of a Street Fighter x Tekken weekend here on TMMN. We’ve been downing donuts and pizza the whole time, getting into the “Mega Man” spirit. Above’s a COIN-OP interview with Yoshinori Ono and Seth Killian. Around the 3:40 mark, Ono begins to talk about Pac-Man and Mega Man. This time, he […]
