Mega Man 20th anniversary - Image 1 A poster in a Rock Man (more commonly known to non-Japanese as Mega Man) fan forum reported that according to a source connected to Capcom, there will be a Mega Man title in store for the Wii, and have already considered making one in the future. However, no details are available as of this moment.


Turian, the Rock Man fan forum poster who provided the juicy tidbit also mentioned that there was a surprisingly high turnout present in the Rock Man 20th Anniversary event recently held in Japan, and the Rock Man store was wiped clean of every merchandise to the point that fans had to be told that everything was sold out. Because of this, Rock Man character designer Keiji Inafune said he will consider making a new Rock Man game within five years.

We sure do hope that this report is true. We'll be keeping tabs on this one until we get a good confirmation. Until then, do check this space often for more updates!


ERRATUM: In our unabashed glee over the news of a possible Wii Mega Man in the works, we have misquoted Turian, the source of the news. The article has been corrected accordingly. Our heartfelt apologies to Turian.

I SERIOUSLY hope we get another real game. No more of this alternate universe kiddy crap. The real fans grew up, and we want DASH 3 and Rockman 9. Salvaging the X series would work, but only if Axl were killed in a Mortal Kombat-esque fatality.

Axl will never be killed. As long as there are fans of the "blue bomber's comrades; Zero & Axl. Then the designer will continue to roll out with games including Mega Man, Zero or Axl. There won't be any of that "Mortal Kombat" stuff. Just pure Mega Man action that fans have grown to like over the years.
