X series Zero got his reveal earlier this week, but don’t forget that Zero series Zero is in the works at Kotobukiya. The prototype model kit is presently being shown off at an in-store event. The prototype is still uncolored, but now we can see it various angles as well as its accessories, which look […]

Grizzly Slash. Duff McWhalen. The Skiver. These were just three of the eight highly-unusual names which greeted fans when the Mega Man X series made its return to the PlayStation in 2001’s Mega Man X5, and which contributed to plenty of subsequent controversy. Some were okay with the names, feeling that they fit the recurring […]

Just a heads-up, for those of you who like watching other people talk about games while playing games: 1UP is hosting a Mega Man X edition of their Retronauts call-in program tonight at 3:45 p.m. Pacific time/6:45 p.m. Eastern. Following their podcast, Jeremy “Toastyfrog” Parish, Christian Nutt of Gamasutra, and Scott “Solid” Sharkey will talk […]

Our final stop on our trip back through Mega Man‘s adventures into the North American mainstream comes not from the United States, but Canada, and a small comic book company once known as Dreamwave. Though Archie’s first issue of Mega Man will be available in comic shops next week, this will not be the first […]

Following the posting of the preview pages for Mega Man #1 earlier, MMN reader Lamarfll pointed out that Comic Book Resources has an interesting animated trailer for the book, which you can see below, or find here. As promotion for a comic book, this is kind of neat– to say nothing of unexpected. No telling […]

While our countdown doesn’t end until tonight and the first issue doesn’t come out until next week, we have the preview pages for Archie’s Mega Man comic right here, right now. It feels like it has taken forever to get here, since the announcement at the New York Comic-Con in October of last year. It […]

Well technically they are Rockman DASH 3 screens, but who’s minding! Today we catch a few more glimpses from the game, including Barrett trying out a new gatling gun style weapon, a big bad biker standing in the way, and an appearance from sweet Miss Tron! Considering the pictures still seem to be Barrett-centric, we […]

To date, Mega Man‘s biggest excursion into the mainstream (mind, the video game industry wasn’t quite the same then as it is today) came to be in 1994, thanks to the animation company Ruby-Spears Productions*.   Together with Capcom Productions, they were able to create a highly-successful animated series which ran for three seasons**, and even […]

Another call has been made for fans to vote on Mega Man Legends 3 content. While MML3 is bound to have plenty of new Reaverbots, the mysterious and sometimes frightening automatons that inhabit the worlds’ ruins, the developers are interested in knowing which ones we’d like to see return as well. Thus, a large scale […]

It begins! OverClocked ReMix’s second annual Robot Master Remix Battle is upon us. Just like last year, artists from around the internet will choose one robot master theme to rule them all and attempt to fight their way through fellow remixers for that number one spot. How does it work? After choosing a stage theme […]

With X coming out this week, it’s natural his partner should come to light. While we’ve known it was coming for some time, Big Bad Toy Store offers us our first real look at Bandai’s D-Arts Zero! According to the site: Following the popular D-Arts launch of Megaman X will be the popular Megaman Zero! […]

It’s been a little quiet on the Bandai front lately, but don’t be fooled. Their D-Arts Rockman X figure should be releasing in Japan this week! Not to mention we ought to be getting it here in May. Given this, overviews of the figure are beginning to surface. First, Blog-like Review Place has a general […]
