If you happen to live in New York City, you’ll want to head to Nintendo World this Sunday, the 7th. According to Capcom*Unity, starting at 11 AM they will be giving away Mega Man 10 shirts and posters, while supplies last, with the purchase of a 2,000 point Wii Point card. Capcom*Unity also invites you to take pictures there and then submit them via private message on the Unity boards. A selected image will nab the sender a mysterious Mega Man gift. Sounds intriguing!

Details on MM10, Zero Collection from World Hobby Fair

The World Hobby Fair Winter 2010 is running in Japan right now, and attendees at the event have been able to Net Battle in OSS, try out Mega Man 10 and hear a little about the Mega Man Zero Collection. Here are some of the details we have from the event:

MegaMan 10

  • Unlike the CES demo, this demo featured both Strike Man’s and Blade Man’s stages playable to completion (though it’s not mentioned if they had Robot Masters).
  • Proto Man was playable for the demo in both easy and normal modes.
  • Strike Man’s stage midboss is called Goalie Keeper.
  • Blade Man’s stage midboss is a castle-like robot (as seen in the promotional video). Its eyes are its weak point, and when defeated it throws up a white flag.
  • 200 Mega Man 10 caps were given out to attendees.

Mega Man Zero Collection

  • Was formally announced at the event right after the OSS Survival NEO Net Battle tournament, with screens of the game shown. There was also a one page ad for it in the event pamphlet.
  • A promotional movie featured both artwork from the games and official character illustrations.
  • A new feature to called the Collection Mode for now was announced. Details about it are unclear, but it may be gallery mode to view character artwork and such.

We’ll keep you posted with more info as it comes.

Rockman EXE OSS trial play event coming to stores on Nov. 3rd

pic_trial_ss1Here’s another one of those if-you-happen-to-be-in-Japan stories. How it begins… ah, yes. If you happen to be in Japan, specifically in the Chiyoda area of Tokyo, on November 3rd you can head to either Sofmap or Messe Sanoh for an “over the counter trial play” meet-up for Rockman EXE Operate Shooting Star. What’s not specifically mentioned is what kind of trial version will be available for trying out (would be odd if it’s the demo already available on the Everyone’s Nintendo Channel). Aside from that, though, special sticker sets that were available at the Tokyo Game Show will also be given out at this event. In fact, the sticker set differs depending on which store you go to!

‘Course, if you don’t live in Japan, then uh… well… hey, did you check out this video with Turbo Man yet?
