Hell yeah. It's finally happening.

All I have to say is, Splash Woman.

I raise you a Plug Man.

Happy to see this one too. It's looking good.

it's about time, but what i'm wondering is; where is mega man on the virtual console?!

Nintendo says 1 and 2 will be coming out in the US when 9 does. It's long overdue.

E3 trailer of the game (http://www.gamevideos.com/video/id/19908)

Love the music, and they've improved some animation in levels.

As long as there's slowdown when Mega Man gets hit and does the transparent thing then I'll buy two copies.

it's crazy they are using that retro look.

but i didn't realize it was just a wii ware release, i guess that makes more sense. (although i read that it will be on ps3 and xbox, too)

interesting...

i wonder how much this will cost, esp on the supposed 360 and ps3 releases, anyone know?

ive only ever played megaman x games... the earlier ones to be specific. i was told that megaman < megaman x so i never bothered with them but i dont know what the difference is :confused:

It'll be for Wiiware, PSN, and XBL. That was confirmed recently. And I think I read it'll cost roughly 10USD.

Boxart has been revealed. (http://img508.imageshack.us/img508/1369/1216275718302wa9.jpg)

insertnamehere: The difference between Mega Man Classic and Mega Man X, is Mega Man Classic is 1000x better. All kidding aside, Mega Man Classic is the original series, and Mega Man X takes place in the future, with a new robot creation named X.

That's a fucking sweet picture, but... it doesn't come in boxes.

I highly doubt that's the official box art. Probably a fan-made work.

Edit: Holy shit, it IS (http://wii.ign.com/dor/objects/14260822/mega-man-9/images/mega-man-9-20080717020802013.html) the official box art.

I love both the original and X series but I played a few more of the X series when I was a kid so I always got to go with that. They both had some really mediocre games though :(

Oh yeah, saw it the other day. They are seriously dedicated to making this as old school as possible (y) Loving the box art.

haha that box art is awesome. before i clicked it i was like "i hope they purposely made it as lame as the mega man 1 box art" and then, well, they were one step ahead of me

anyway it's a cool idea but i probably won't play it because the old school megaman games are too hard for me and they make me frustrated and quit. i for one enjoy how much easier games have become
