Mega Man X2 Finally Hits North American Wii VC
Posted on June 14th, 2012 by Heat Man
Better late than never, wouldn’t you say? Japan having received the game late last year, and Europe getting a hold just a couple weeks ago, now folks in North America can finally enjoy Mega Man X2 on the Wii’s Virtual Console service. Like many SNES games, just drop 800 Wii Points and it’s yours.
To commemorate the release, you can comment over at Capcom Unity for a chance to win 2,000 Wii Points!
Perhaps Mega Man X3 will be coming before long? It still hasn’t even released in Japan yet. But I do wonder, with the release of Wii U approaching, perhaps the schedule and method of classic games distribution will change

Well, for one second i tought there was an announcement or some informations leak when I saw the screen… too bad!
Anyway, glad to see it’s coming finally!
Inb4 irrational complainting.
Good stuff. Glad to see this happening finally.
I’m now waiting for Mega Man X3, Mega Man 6, and Mega Mega 7 to get released on the Wii VC.
Man, I wish this stuff was coming to the 3DS! I play that much more than any other system I own.
Just give me Mega Man 7 and i’ll be happy…..and new games (course that should be obvious).
Everyone buy it so Capcom knows that these are the kinds of games we want
Don’t forget to update the release dates section at the top right of the site.
Honkin’ A!

It’ll be pretty depressing to see nothing under Release Dates : (
Really glad they’re releasing X2. I guess these releases will continue into the WiiU era.
Here’s hoping for a badass port of some Battle Network games onto the WiiU.
U-pad as a PET. Oh my god it’s a dream.
But yes, thanks for the heads up on that comment lottery. I left one praising X1, as per my nature.
Nothing has been done with the RMFG yet, so X2 is probably safe for now.
Eeeeeeee. SO HAPPY.
Yay! While I won’t be picking this up since I bought the PS2 X Collection back when it was re-released crazy cheap, I’m glad that others can now enjoy my favorite SNES Mega Man game. (Probably because it’s the only one I owned)
I second the U-pad as a PET idea. It would be perfect.
No, no, no. All wrong.
Why would you ever use Speed Burner against Crystal Snail?! It only does 1 point of damage!
Agreed, FINALLY!!!

I dunno, for a challenge? Like doing 3 heart runs in Zelda games?
As long as Mega Man X3 is the SNES version……
I’m sorry I’ve played the other version on the Mega Man X collection disc, and…. yeah I don’t care if there was animated sequences and such, the SNES version is the best one.
