Mega Man Legends 3 cancelled
Site news, by Dr. Cossack on 18 July 2011 at 23:06

Like an echo from a close past, it was officially announced today that Mega Man Legends 3 has been cancelled. This includes the Prototype version that was originally supposed to launch alongside the 3DS's eShop.

This comes as quite a surprise to many, especially since this project had been aiming from the beginning to involve the fan base. While updates on that front had slowed down a bit lately, it could have easily being justified by the work required for E3 alongside preparations for the launch of the Prototype.

Where does this leave the future of Mega Man games? As you can tell from looking at the current list of release dates, nothing is currently known outside of merchandise and books. The upcoming Tokyo Game Show 2011, from September 15 to 18, could shed some light on what to expect for the future.

In a rare hindsight into the inner workings of the company, Capcom's Sven has posted a detailed explanation on the way that PC games are considered within the group, and how their support for the platform is set to be expanded.

I know that several of you like to play games on your PC, and this makes for an interesting read. If you'd like Capcom to spend more time on PC versions of their games, including of course the Mega Man series, you might want to use their suggestion box to make your voice heard.

Eleventh Anniversary!
Site news, by Dr. Cossack on 6 May 2011 at 9:28

That's right folks, this site is now eleven years old! The past year saw the announcement... and subsequent cancellation of Mega Man Universe, along with the surprise release of the first few Rockman Complete Works games on the PSN. More importantly, Mega Man Legends 3 was finally announced after 10 years of waiting! There haven't been a lot of game releases, but the merchandising front has been doing well with several new figurines and books released and upcoming to the North American market, a rare occurrence nowadays. Site updates have included the ability for you to comment news posts and FanArt, while work steadily continues behind the scenes on a major project.

As always, thank you for visiting and being part of this community!

Mega Man Legends 3: Prototype announced
Legends Series, by Dr. Cossack on 21 April 2011 at 12:06

Once thought to be a mere demo set to be available in select events, Capcom announced today on their blog that an early version of Mega Man Legends 3 will be available for everyone to download as soon as the Nintendo 3DS eShop is available!

The blog post includes for the first time several screenshots of the game in action, including actual gameplay. As dark as the future of the game looked to some people, this Prototype version shows that solid progress is being made toward an actual release.

The actual opening date of the 3DS eShop is still unknown, but is expected to happen within the next month or so in North America. Soon enough, you'll get a chance to play this by yourself!

Mega Man Universe cancelled
Original Series, by Dr. Cossack on 31 March 2011 at 7:23

The news fell today: on the Japanese site for Mega Man Universe, a message explains that the game has been cancelled and as such won't be released. Considering how it had been several months since the last news update, several people assumed that the game was being retooled after it's initial display.

This means that the only Mega Man title currently set for an international release is Legends 3, although that still has to be confirmed. With the usual set of Spring press events coming up, including E3, it's entirely possible that Capcom will reveal something new in the coming weeks.

Rockboard soundtrack available
Site news, by Dr. Cossack on 28 February 2011 at 22:25

I've added to the Music section something that should have been there a long time ago: the Rockboard soundtrack. At 15 items, it isn't the longest or most impressive score of the Mega Man series, but it does have a few catchy themes that you might want to listen to.

Happy download!

Rockman Complete Works (1) on the PSN
Original Series, by Dr. Cossack on 17 January 2011 at 23:09

In a surprising move, it was announced today that the Rockman Complete Works version of Mega Man 1 will be hitting the Playstation Network in North America tomorrow. Set at 5.99$, this is the improved port of Mega Man 1 that was released in Japan a decade ago on the Playstation One. The game will most likely be untranslated from it's original Japanese, but this should be no big deal for a platformer.

It has been my firm opinion over the past several years that the Rockman Complete Works versions of the six first games are the definite ones to own, thanks to their extra features and minor tweaks (saves!) that improve the overall experience without losing anything. If the five other games also make it, we're in for a treat.
