Story Time with Rockman

As many of us will be busy gorging ourselves with patriotism and grilled meats tomorrow, here’s a little something easy going: a storybook with Rockman!

Imagine Furnishing Your Room with Rockman

Truth be told, this doesn’t really count as “news,” since the subject of the story is actually rather old. Nonetheless, it seemed interesting enough to write about. To your right (click to enlarge) is a piece of kids furniture manufactured by Itoki Design in 1994. But don’t try to sit in this chair; odds are […]

Mega Man Sewn Up

That’s right; this rendition of the Blue Bomber and the devious doctor aren’t Powered Up, they’re all sewn up! By way of the Capcom Unity come these two plush adversaries that could give Sackboy a run for his money. More pics can be seen there, as well as on lostdawill’s Flickr account. If this doesn’t […]

Mega Man 2 on 3DS? (Update)

While the past few days have been chock-full of E3 excitement (would that make it E4?), odds are that if you visit this site, you’ve noticed a clear lack of presence from the Blue Bomber at the show. Yeah, we know. And God help poor Heat Man’s credit card bill if something doesn’t surface in […]
