ITT: Mega Man Stuff

You joke but their Mega Man comic is so reference prone I could easily see that happening.

In other Mega Man news, the Ruby Spears cartoon is getting a new DVD printing. This will also mark the first time the second season even is getting a DVD.

Also a bunch of NES Mega Man games got dumped on the Wii U and 3DS virtual consoles following the Smash 4 reveal.

[UHMEEEEBA]

All the Game Boy games are coming to the 3DS Virtual Console, even Xtreme 1 which nobody ever asked for.

IV, V and Xtreme 2 are the only ones really worth talking about.

Also while I'm bumping this, in regards to a certain fan game that came out this week, I'd sooner play X6 because that has more sensible level design.

....It's a start at least?  :fpeng:

[UHMEEEEBA]

A board game that requires a kickstarter. After they already got the license.

Between that and the fact their card game is just reused stock art, this does not bode well for a quality product.

[Jesuszilla]

"Quality?" Surely, you jest.

[UHMEEEEBA]

If we redefine quality temporarily for the sake of this conversation to mean "even worth the paper and cardboard it's printed on" would that be better?

[UHMEEEEBA]

Inafune just announced a Kickstarter for a spiritual Mega Man clone at PAX called Mighty No. 9, being done by various former Mega Man staff members and being made by Inti Creates.

Have some music,

Mighty No. 9 Main Theme

The second enemy illustration, aka "Not Dr. Weil."


Still, this game has an amazing team. The original composer for Mega Man AND the guy who designed the characters in DS3 and Warzard holy shit.

[UHMEEEEBA]

A lot of the designs are fairly blatant expies to the point I half think it's them taking the piss out of things (like the Blader that's just like a Blader but is a cube instead of a bisected sphere and the Cut Man with horizontal scissors in his head).

Reaction I've seen from the Mega Man community has been fairly positive minus a few people who won't play it because it's too similar or it doesn't actually have Mega Man.

It's almost 25 % funded and it hasn't even been a day yet.

[Jesuszilla]

Oh it hit 100k in less than one hour. This thing is getting funded very well.

But yeah this is Inafune pretty much telling Capcom to eat a dick.

Wait seriously

ho shit i might actually fund this

[UHMEEEEBA]

Mighty No. 9 has been funded with 28.5 days to work on stretch goals.

People are now retweeting this 2 year-old tweet.

This is precious.
