Mega Man 9 intro cinematic and item store revealed

OK, I totally lied. Here’s more Mega Man 9 goodness in the form of the official English intro and the item store, which has a retro look but was actually inspired by Mega Man titles post-Mega Man 2.
I’m excusing my broken promise about no more Mega Man 9 posts with a new justification: Hopefully all this neo-retro coverage inspires other big name publishers to revisit old 8-bit titles with a similar treatment. Basically anything from Konami’s 8-bit catalogue would do fine. An explainer for the store can be found at WiiFanboy in the link above.

i love the fact it says “swiss bank account” on the card and has the number for deposits.

That’s….so….awesome!
I’m even more anxious now!

that bank account number is wrong! I tried to donate and the swiss just looked at me funny

It’s too long, and the music isn’t rockin’ enough. Mega Man two had the perfect into: Short and sweet with kick-ass music.

Yeah, I’m pretty positive that was Chun Li.
