Indeed, you did not misread that headline; James Rolfe, aka the Angry Video Game Nerd, known for his vulgar and sometimes grotesque (albeit humorously so) reviews of some of the worst games the hobby has to offer, is not performing his regular run-of-the-mill duties for the Capcom franchise’s best-selling hit. Rather, he is reading the […]

Over Mega Man‘s twenty-plus years in the video game business, a lot of his games have made it to the shores of North America. Heck, some have even gone to Europe. Despite this, however, there are also a number of Mega Man titles we haven’t seen, or have been held back until new opportunities had […]

Just a reminder for those interested, Capcom Unity has opened the polls for judging of this week’s Mega Man 10 Robot Master fan art contest, which features the pick of the flock, Sheep Man. You can find all the entries in Capcom’s photo gallery, and cast your vote (one per person) here. The poll also […]

At least, it definitely is in Japan. GoNintendo is reporting that Rockman 4 is slated for release on Japan’s Wii Virtual Console sometime in February. I expect we’ll hear confirmation for Western regions soon, as this is likely a promotional effort for Mega Man 10. News Credit: GoNintendo TMMN Staff

Capcom of Japan’s Rockman 10 website has updated with some lovely new screenshots, showing off the Time Attack Mode and Blues (Proto Man) Mode. Of course we’ve known for a while these modes would be included, and Time Attack Mode seems identical to Mega Man 9’s, but now you can check out images of them […]

Online game retailer Gamestar has some details about Mega Man Zero Collection on their product listing for the game. Most notably this includes the two main modes that hold the game’s contents. The first mode is the Easy Scenario Mode, which lets you experience Zero’s story. The classic action games are revived here with the […]

Remember earlier, when Capcom said “We’ve already seen that you folks really want that Mega Man Zero collection and believe me, we’re listening”? Well, as it turns out, they weren’t kidding. We had a feeling they would announce Mega Man Zero Collection for a North American release, we just didn’t know when– or that it […]

Remember these guys? We brought you word of the Kubrick and BearBrick figures of Mega Man and robo-bro Proto Man back in October, but there was one small catch to getting these figures. Like so many other pieces of Blue Bomber merchandise, it was only available in Japan– and not cheap, either, at around $30.90 […]

If you spend any good amount of time on the internet, then there is a good chance you’ve come across the “Sparta!” meme which sprang from a movie which shall remain nameless, suffice to say that it came out more than three-hundred days ago. The meme has since died down somewhat, but that wasn’t enough […]

I’m sure some of you know this now with Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars being out and all, but Roll’s longtime theme song, “Kaze yo Tsutaete” (roughly “Bequeath the Wind”) has been translated and localized for this title. Originally written for the 1997 game Mega Man Battle & Chase, the song has also been featured […]

Our website has been running into issues with memory consumption this past week. So what better to do than deliver you this big honkin’ artwork. But is it not lovely? Sure we’ve seen this promotional artwork before, again produced by i am 8-bit’s Gerald de Jesus, in other media. But today Capcom has released the […]

Today ESRB’s rating for Mega Man 10 has been published. Naturally the game has been rated E for everyone. Not much other information is revealed about the title, but it’s nice to know MM10 won’t have any extreme violence or nudity. Megaman 10 Platform: PlayStation 3, Wii, Xbox 360 Rating: Everyone Content descriptors: Mild Cartoon […]
