Mega Man 10

[Raikirik]

I was always wondering, what is it with that artwork that makes Megaman look like an actual MAN instead of a little boy?

how is the new mega man? worth getting?

Nothing will ever top...

!!!!!

I'm partial to the classic Mega Man myself, but X is great as well! I have the X collection for Gamecube but it won't play on my Wii using component cables, and I have no idea where I put the composite cables.

I can still play the remake on PSP though!

It was just poor marketing to the west back in the day. Now it's there for joke/nostalgia purposes.

I love it so far, but I'm a Mega Man freak. If you liked 9, you'll like 10. You get more bang for your buck than 9 since Protoman is included with 10 whereas in 9 he was DLC. And if you get too frustrated, you can go through the game on easy mode (a first for Mega Man)

This game should be on a consoles by the end of the month (it's only on Wii as of today). Honestly, for $10, I feel like I'm robbing Capcom.

He was a man in the north american releases and an anime boy in Japan.

Heck they didn't even give him the "buster arm" until MM3 box art.

I don't know whether to thank you or curse you for showing me those pictures . Yuck.

Here are the newer ones for your amusement/annoyment:

Mega Man9:

Mega Man 10:

The press kit for Mega Man 9 had that artwork on an NES box. Inside that box was an NES cart that would open up containing a Gamecube disc. There is also a t-shirt with the artwork.

AFAIK, they didn't do that for Mega Man 10.

'Thanks' for that . The idea for 9 is pretty cool but I really cannot look at Megaman in that form! Protoman looks alright though.

Protoman looks like Magneto in 10...

That was incredible. I think they even used a musical track from Mega Man X (or maybe X2?) and added cheesy lyrics for that fake 80's commercial.

I haven't even finished MM9 yet. sigh...but I feel like I should buy MM10 anyway.
