Mega Man 9 coming to WiiWare!

This is exciting and I thought it deserved its own thread, but if it needs to be merged in the WW one, I'd understand.

That's fucking awesome. I gave up on the franchise after Mega Man 3 and Mega Man X2. It's been a while.


With Mega Man 2 as the most highly regarded of the series, Inafune states that he'd like to surpass that with this game, and hopefully be able to make "a whole lot more."

And finally, to the Mega Man fans, he says: "The moment you've been waiting for is here! We're not just giving you Mega Man 9, we're giving you a new NES game. This is a game that brings back the fun of the old games, and I hope you all enjoy it!"

When the scans were posted at the Capcom*Unity, Corporate Officer and Vice-president of Strategic Planning & Business Development Christian Svensson stated "I will also say, NP only has part of the story. More to be learned later."
More to be learned later probably means a Live and PSN release as well.

We're not just giving you Mega Man 9, we're giving you a new NES game.
*head explodes*

This is my favorite news in a long, long time. I want more NES/SNES type games, yes, a million times yes.

Looks like this is the case. PSN and Live release happening as well.

I'd ask for a thread title name change, but waiting for a more reputable news source would probably be good.

Hmm... now decisions... go with the 360 with a demo, achievement points, not to mention I have a ton of marketplace points and live with a shitty d-pad or go out and buy Wii points at full price to play with a superior d-pad?

steebo777 06-30-08 11:20 AM

Awesome!

slop101 06-30-08 11:23 AM

Well, since 360 arcade games are required to be in HiDef, I think that's the version I'll go with, that, and my Wii is quickly running out of hard-drive space.

lordwow 06-30-08 11:23 AM

I'd probably get the 360 version.

Groucho 06-30-08 11:28 AM

If this is going to have 8-bit graphics, it had better have an 8-bit price. I'm thinking 400pts on XBLA.

pinata242 06-30-08 11:41 AM

I'd be torn between WiiWare (where it belongs) and XBL (where I get added content benefits). Price wouldn't be much of a factor to me, just the superior experience. HD & achievements would factor as would controls.

Link doesn't work.

Michael Corvin 07-07-08 10:25 AM

Ooops. Try it now.

XavierMike 07-07-08 11:14 AM

Still broken.

Groucho 07-07-08 11:41 AM

It's a banned site of some kind, so the url is getting changed by the forum.

shumway 07-07-08 12:00 PM

I googled the url from /video on and the first choice led me to the video.

steebo777 07-08-08 09:17 AM

Good lookin stuff!

Decker 07-10-08 10:14 PM

Apparently, it's not a Wii exclusive anymore.

I'll be buying this on release date. I still play the Anniversery Collection from time to time. Man this will bring back memories.

Goldberg74 07-14-08 08:59 AM

Dang!

Ho ho ho. The Wii has worse graphics than the PS3 and 360. Ho ho ho.
