Fan-Made Mega Man 9 HD Remix

For those out there who bemoan the 8-bit retro chic look of Mega Man 9 and 10, I’d just like to point this out to you: it could be worse. Of course I don’t mean to disparage the work of Eric Ruth, the man behind this fan-made HD remake of Mega Man 9, and also known for doing an 8-bit rendition of Left 4 Dead (I’m starting to see a theme here). Having watched the video, I can attest this is a pretty skillfully made recreation of Galaxy Man’s stage.

Eric is not planning on finishing this project, having concern about legal repercussions from Capcom. I don’t see too much of an issue, although I think Mega Man 9 is pretty much fine the way it is. But I know there are those who want it in HD regardless. Of course to be truly HD, it’d need a lot more cut scenes.
