The Damned Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 http://www.destructoid.com/the-blue-bomber-is-coming-to-virtual-console-97968.phtml Maybe we will see the entire main series at this rate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diseased Project Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Only thing that amazes me, is the fact it took this long for them to release it on the Virtual Console. Oh well, now I'll just hope the classics would some time hit XBLA too (I don't own a Wii). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UnforgivingEdges Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Or you could buy the GCN version of Mega Man Anniversary Collection for 15-20 bucks and have all 8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate using the Gamecube controller for NES games. Hate hate hate hate it. I already have working copies of the last two. No need to buy those. I don't really like each and every one of the first six. No need to buy them all. There are more emulation/port issues with that version than I care to count.

Malaki-LEGEND.sys Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Why does this seem so counter productive? I mean I guess this is what Miyamoto and Iwata meant when they said that they haven't forgotten the core gamers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirby Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Should I stop holding my breath for Earthbound? Actually, I heard that Earthbound is coming to VC. So don't worry, folks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XZero Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 I liked all of the original Mega Man games (though I never cared as much for 2 *dodges stone*), but the GCN controller never quite worked for the Anniversary Collection. The GCN SNES style controller was perfect for the X collection (you could also set it up to play like the Zero games when played through the GB Player), but the 1-8 collection was uniquely bad compared to the PS2 and XBox versions of the same. At any rate, I will be downloading Mega Man tomorrow if only to show support for future Mega Man releases on the Virtual Console. Mega Man 2 should be next month, as well as Mega Man 9. I'd love for Inafune to release a Mega Man X9 in the Mega Man X1-3 style at some point if Mega Man 9 goes over as well as it probably will. Short version? Support such Capcom releases to secure even better future ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleck Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Yes, Earthbound is coming to VC. Earthbound has been on that list for almost a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin Agent Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 my nostalgia will kick in when i see mm3. the top man stage is the most addicting mega man theme ever. and astroman from 7, but i'm not greedy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benprunty Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 I'm happy that the Wii is finally finding some relevance for me now. Aside from Smash Bros, there wasn't a whole lot for me to get excited about. Now I play Dr. Mario Online all the time and I can't wait for all the Mega Man goodness. Bring it!

X Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Or you could buy the GCN version of Mega Man Anniversary Collection for 15-20 bucks and have all 8. Never mind the fact that some of the games got seriously butchered, of course. ... Bah. Who am I kidding? Yeah, I got a copy of the Mega Man AC for PS2 (not GC). Despite all the glitchy crap and missing stuff, it's still a keeper, though why anyone would want GC versions of the original or X collections at all is beyond me... (infernal GC controller).

Dopple Boppler Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Earthbound has been on that list for almost a year. It's been on the list for a while, but it was actually rated by the ESRB just a month or two ago. So, while that still doesn't mean it's definitely coming, there's an infinitely better chance of it than there was a year ago. And yes, Mega Man is definitely a purchase for me tomorrow; the first Virtual Console game I'll have bought since Kirby 64 back in March. Granted I don't like the first Mega Man nearly as much as 2 or 3, but still, the first three games are just awesomeness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdgeCrusher Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 I got the AC and X collection for ps2, so Im good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nohbody Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Why would I buy a wii and then buy any of these games on VC when I could legally obtain legal roms and play them on an emulator? I dont need a wii no sir. Perfectly fine without it, corking actually quite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
