Mega Man 9 intro cinematic and item store revealed

Thursday, August 14th, 2008 at 1:21pm by Jack


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.

    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.

  8. EmThree says...

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