p>Thanks to the fine folks at Inti Creates and 8-4 Ltd., The Mega Man Network has been able to play through and dissect much of what could be called the first post-Capcom Mega Man game–Mega Man without Mega Man, as it were. But defining Azure Striker Gunvolt in that way would do an injustice to one of the best platformers of this generation.

Six days and over 180 comments later, one has been chosen…

MegAugust (or whatever we decided to call this thing) continues on today with the release of the final NES chapter of the Blue Bomber’s adventures, Mega Man 6.

As of August 20th, 2014, Azure Striker Gunvolt has just been released in Japan. However, the fine folks at 8-4 and Inti Creates have been courteous enough to not only allow us to give you an idea of what’s to come in North America on the 29th, but something more as well.

As you might have noticed, we have a section for news separate from the usual Mega Man fun here called “Mega Man-esque,” for games and such which fall in the spirit of Mega Man, but aren’t actually Mega Man. And let us tell you, they don’t get much more “Mega Man-esque” than this!

Pretty much just what the title says.

Though not as good as Europe’s bounty, at least Mega Man Battle Network has arrived in the Nintendo eShop on Wii U. But, there is exciting news ahead!

Earlier this week, we noted that Europe would be releasing a triple-whammy Final Strike of Nintendo eShop Mega Man goodness. Should you happen to be into checking out trailers for such releases, then we’ve got just the thing here.

Have a minute? (Or 16?)

Thanks to the release list announced last month, we knew that Mega Man Battle Chip Challenge was on its way to the Wii U Virtual Console, but we didn’t know when.

Blue! Blue! Blue! Three Mega Man games arrive on the Wii U Virtual Console this week.

Midtown Comics is on top of things once again as they bring to us two new covers and the solicitation for Mega Man #42, and we must say, one of these covers looks simply Smashing.
