Proto Hood

A few days ago, we brought you a pretty cool concept for a Mega Man hoodie. But where would Mega Man be without his prototypical older brother, Proto Man? Hence the following work from bmansnuggles: While the first one was definitely cool, how can anyone not love this one? It features all the little details […]

Mega Mosaic

Things are feeling rather artsy here at The Mega Man Network, as yesterday saw a cool pixel art image of the Blue Bomber posted on the grounds of the University of North Carolina Charlotte campus. Today, the creativity continues with a rather impressive mosaic made by Jarosh of the NeoGAF: The work above is comprised […]

Mega Man: The College Years

No, the Blue Bomber has not opted to further his education after his latest victory over the nefarious Dr. Wily, but he has been spotted at the Charlotte campus of the University of North Carolina: Click to enlarge. Those who happen to be in the UNCC area can spot this bit of artistic expression as […]

“Dr. Wily! What Does the Scouter Say About His Power Level?!”

As some of you may well know, the era of the original PlayStation saw numerous Rockman releases in Japan which never made their way Westward, and among those releases were the Rockman Complete Works titles. Each of the six games in the Complete Works series was a re-release of one of the classic NES games […]

GameSpot Reveals Mega Man Deconstructed

As we all know, April 1st is not simply a day, but a day when things happen. Right? Well, at any rate, we brought you a story earlier in which Capcom of Japan and the 100-year old Japanese Maeda Corporation collaborated to look into what would go into the construction of several Mega Man 10 […]

Mega Man Powered Up Doesn’t Make the Cut for PSN in North America

Those who have been a little late to the PlayStation Portable party and hoped to get their hands on Mega Man Powered Up by way of the PlayStation Network should probably start making other plans. According to Capcom’s Vice President of Strategic Planning & Corporate Development, Christian Svensson: There are techinical problems that neither we […]

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!

It’s Just a Jump to the Left, and then a Step to the Right

TMMN resident Maverick-Jin brought my attention to an interesting article on Press The Buttons today. It’s a little feature in many Mega Man games I never thought much about, but immediately recognized its persistence when it was brought to light. So you’re playing a Mega Man game, when you drop down to a lower level. […]

Price Glitch Affects UDON Books, but Should Be Cleared Up Soon

Last weekend, Amazon and other online book retailers began offering books like Mega Man Official Complete Works for the cutthroat price of $14.99. A pretty good deal, but not a deal that was intended to happen. And while Amazon honored the orders at first, it seems that may not be the case anymore. Staffer Maverick-Jin […]

Pictures Aplenty from Mega Man 10’s Launch Party at the Nintendo World Store

Last week, we reported that Capcom and Nintendo would be celebrating the March 1st WiiWare release of Mega Man 10 after-the-fact at the Nintendo World Store at Rockefeller Plaza in New York. Of course, save for the most devoted (with plenty of spare cash and the ability to make long road-trips on short notice), there […]

GameSpite Examines Mega Man

Following their “Welcome to 20XX” article from earlier last week, GameSpite Quarterly 3 has added a new article about Mega Man to their character profiles, which give a sort of VH1 Behind the Music-styled look at the history of some of gaming’s greatest (and not-so great) characters. This time, in the odd company of Frogger […]
