and i thought rockman and forte was 9

[bobrocks95]

$2,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 says GamesRadar didn't get their "hands on" Megaman 9 first, Nintendo Power did(When they're basically first-party, why wouldn't they get it first?), even all those screenshots they have are copies from the most recent issue.

And Mega Man & Bass was NOT Mega Man 9. If it were Mega Man 9, it would say Mega Man 9 on the box and title screen. And it doesn't, does it now?

[cel123]

i posted this for news purposes only , and yes i thought R&F was 9 because capcom didnt made another rockman title for 10yrs and i was expecting that this new rockman game will be a link to the X series, but i guess not

[Dennemark]

Megaman 9 eh ? Well, its good that its gfx are like the old school nes, however i wish for the sound to be kinda epic: the option to have newer sounds, or sounds of which you'd think that its nes...i would take the latter one

[Kaiser Sigma]

Making a MM game based on the Nes gfx when they had better options like R&F's gfx or MM8's, which would have made the game feel retro as well, is pretty much dumb.

[Carmofin]

hardly, this is about a retro trend currently going on in japan, retro meaning 8bit or less. megaman is famous for its 8bit roots, everything that came after was merely a constant odyssey for redefinition and never worked out particularly well in my opinion, as MMX did everything that could be expected form a solid transition.
the 8bit sprites are cult, the 8bit sounds are cult and so is the music. I dont know, since you probably still feel like arguing just go to OC Remixes and see what megaman tunes egt remixed msot often.
i wonder though... is this really a nes game technically, or is it just an engine emulating the feel?

[cel123]

i think its cool that theyre gonna use 8-bit style, megaman 2 gave me good memories , 8 felt the weakest for me

[Kaiser Sigma]

I don't neglect the value of nostalgia. Just seem retarded to be using a 300+ bucks system to play a Nes cartdridge~.

[Dennemark]

back then it costed 300+ bucks . Well, most of em atleast...

[bobrocks95]

How's the Wii 300+ dollars? 250 + 500-1500 Wii Points(No clue how much it will be) = $255-265 for a Wii and Mega Man 9. Where's the extra 50 coming in?

[Gladiator@]

It's 250 dollars there, in the US, but not in other countries. Here, in Brazil (for example), it is US$ 750,00 - 1250,00.

Add to the price in North America about a 60% more to calculate the price in the rest of the world. And besides, the point is..while I understand the whole nostalgia thing, no matter how you look at it having a next-gen system to play Nes carts (even if they were free) is pretty much dumb. People shouldn't really encourage this practice, imo~.

It's like buying the most powerful PC designed for games just to use Microsoft Office~.

well if you need the most powerfull PC to get off thats your thing.
the wii is neither powerfull, nor expensive and quite frankly, the perfect platform to be flooded with interesting experiments like this one. it costs next to nothing to make the game and it will be very cheap to buy. i honestly dont see why every single professional game needs to be a full 5 year developmentcycle multimillion dollar poject when its very fun and satisfying to have a small, fun game now and then. personally i hope this paves the road for other games like this, even though i will probably hate the game itself.
and nostalgia aside, nes games do have a certain apeal, though i admit its hard to put the finger on the reason. i recently played kid icarus for the first time for instance and thouroughly enjoyed it, since i have never seen the game before in my life, theres soemthing else at work then nostalgia.

lol, i didnt mean the wii, i meant console prices back in the 80's and early 90's. Things didnt change really..

[cottonvibes]

yay megaman 9!!!

i hope they don't mess up the series.

and its a shame its only for the wii; it would be really awesome if they released an old-school NES cartridge of it.
i would definitely buy it!

[RockmanForte]

I am surprise that they go back to 8 bit from 32 bit of Megaman 8. It is kinda strange, really.

it would be disastrous for capcom if they did

[cottonvibes]

why would it be disastrous for Capcom if they also released the game on a NES cartridge?

i bet a ton of fans would buy it just to complete their collection.
