Month: December 2009

About a week ago, Heat Man came to me and said “you know, it’s going to be the year 20XX soon. You should write something reflecting that.” And then he went and wrote his own article, so now you get two of these things. With that said, let us take a look back on the […]

Have you heard of the Video Game Memorabilia Museum? If not, then know this: it is like the ultimate embodiment of video game merchandise, a nirvana of geekish delights for fans of numerous video game franchises. Don’t believe me? Don’t think such a place exists? Check out their front page, then answer those questions again. […]

If you’re anything of a Mega Man fan, the ambiguous dating system of the series should be very familiar to you. For example, the Battle Network series takes place in 200X. The X series occurs through 21XX. Star Force kicks in at 22XX. Legends… honestly, I don’t really know; I think they used the Mayan […]

A short while back, we were introduced to some videos that attempted to dispel the idea that the weapon Top Spin in fact sucked. Today Redmage1987 attempts to prove that same fact, but now about Mega Man 5’s Charge Kick. The video above is the first in a series of eight stages played entirely with […]

Rumor has it that rather than risk sinking money into a DS port-plus version of Mega Man Battle Network in Operate Shooting Star, Capcom may instead simply lift the multiplayer mode from the title and release it independently on Nintendo’s DSiWare downloadable video game service. The mini-game, known as “Star Colosseum,” allows six players to […]

Personally, I’ve always felt that Mega Man 6 was underrated among the NES titles in the series. And apparently, someone at Destructoid feels the same way. Okay, so I think that Mega Man 2 and 3 might be better, but I still think 6 was a good addition to the series, and I’m glad Nintendo […]

In the spirit of the day, here’s a little more bizarre Mega Man Christmas joy for you to partake in from the OAV mini-series Upon a Star, which is now available on iTunes: As it turns out, Protodude had the same idea I did, though he took it to a rather north polar-extreme, and has […]

Well today is that spirited, festive day. Hopefully you are having a great time celebrating with family, getting presents, eating delicious food and playing some awesome games. But if you do have some free time in all that, and just happen to be stumbling over this site today, then here’s a little something else to […]

Once you’re done graciously accepting Aunt Edna’s yearly fruitcake and sorting out all of your newly-received socks and underwear, Mega Man fans may want to take whatever Christmas cash they’ve received this year and book it to Hot Topic on the 26th, as they have some new Capcom-themed apparel featuring the Blue Bomber (and Street […]

Earlier this month, the long-awaited cellphone game Mega Man: Rush Marine was at last released. Then, Mega Man 10 was announced, and everyone promptly forgot about propulsion-powered red robodogs swimming through the tide. Well, almost everyone. On our forums, Duckaiser has posted his thoughts on the game in the form of a review, which conclusively […]

It’s been quite some time since Mega Man last took to the race track in Mega Man Battle & Chase; over a decade, in fact, in a game which North America never even got to lay its hands on until 2006’s Mega Man X Collection for the PlayStation 2 and Nintendo GameCube. Since then, Capcom […]

Rockman EXE Official Complete Works, the latest continuation of the uber-big Rockman artwork books, has released in Japan this week. And for those wanting a nice look inside, Nigoli has got you covered. His photographic report of the book contains a lot of nice pages with content not commonly found in what’s been released on […]
