Oh, Wow. I...Want...This!

*Whoa, my first First Comment. I'm movin' up in the world!

me want. lol

Cool, Megaman 9 can't get more retro than this, who wouldn't want one. I hope this is a sign that we will get the game next monday.

yeah i saw that, cant get any radder than that! lol

The price tag was a nice touch. I wish they sold it on the company site or offered it in a game contest.

Hey, Corbie, can't decide on a new avatar or just fond of change?

That NES cartridge shaped case is pretty neat. It will probably be pretty hard to find one though. Too bad it's not an actual working cartridge. It would be nice to put it in with my box of old games right next to my Mega man 1-6 cartridges. I wonder If It would still fit in the NES even though it won't actually play the game?

Man, that is too cool! I'd love to own that.

What is this avatar from, Corbie?
@Press kit
Too funny/awesome for words. CAPCOM is such a great company.

Where do I buy this!!!!, Eventually it will be worth about oh, $30 in a few months on ebay or Amazon, just like Elctroplankton, but I got that too.....

That looks so awesome. Too bad only media organizations get it. Unless......*joins ABC for one day.

awesome i want one =DDD

Haha, I would just want that for the increase in value..
They are really bringing back the retro feel. I wouldn't be surprised if they handed out actual nes controls that attacted to the wii remote to finally bring every thing back

@ Corbie
It that avatar from Super Fantasy Zone?

ALso I really like the way Capcom is connecting with video game fans who grew up in the 80's. I am hoping this game will be very successful and bring more retro themed goodness.

Capcom's blog does say it is looking to make a limited number available through their store. But the store is North America only btw. Just as well I have a US address logged on my account. I'll be gunning to see if I am lucky if they put it up...

Oh man, that's awesome. I love it.

When this game does get reviewed, can you mention how steep the difficulty is? Or if the game has adjustable difficulty? I am just curious

The price tag should be at a full $10, since the WiiWare game is definitely not costing 999 WP!

Awsome!!
Hopefully they will make more retro-style games, and i have some suggestions..... Tecmo Bowl 3, Bionic Commando 2, and an NHL hockey would be great too.

I would pay a bazillion dollars for the game on a working NES cart.
Well, if I had a bazillion dollars, and the amount existed.

That NES cartridge-style casing looks awesome! I want it! I think I'll go steal one from NBC!

@Corbie. I don't see what's wrong with Greg the grim reaper...

Wow, old-school Nintendo Seal of Quality too...back when it actually meant something.

I'd laugh if this turned out to be rubbish now.

Looks pretty sweet. I'd definately get one if I could.

When I saw Corbie's avatar, I immediately thought of Ooga Booga for the Dreamcast. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ooga_Booga)

I'm Geeking out

Seriously, that would be awesome to own one of those.

@Objection_Blaster & Tony
Looks to me like another foe from the DQ series ( forget it's name though, I've only encountered it in DWM)

I think capsoft are just going too far now.
1st it was an 8bit game, then the game cover, now this.
This is just completely pointless, (apart from it being a collectors item).
Its like celebrating star wars by bringing out a lightsaber, but it isnt a laser, its made out if plastic and completely pointless.
I bet the only reason they're doing this is to raise hype.
Almost every week, more news about megaman 9 is updated, they're just raising hype.
Although, the game is appealing to me, more and more because of the news, but that could also be their weakness.
I didnt even hear of strongbad before, yet I still bought the game and enjoy it a lot (SB 2 next friday!)/
I've heard of megaman before, (Havent played any games of it before though), and I havent bought a game of it yet.
I'm seriously considering buying it, but depends of review.

I thought your current avatar looked like an (Even More) deformed Andross. No Offence Corbie.

i cant wait until monday im buying a wii points card tomorow just in case it does. you guys think i should get mega man 2 and/or strongbad 2 i dont know they look good in all i just want your guys opinion

I want to know what the back of the box says!

wait what kind of media gets it? Video game reporting media or news media?

"I bet the only reason they're doing this is to raise hype."

Of course they're doing it for hype, why else would they do it?

This is the type of game that will pretty much sell itself, but Capcom want's to rake in as much as they can with it, hense the hype. Considering that it's a huge franchise, and mega man fans are already aware of how the gameplay will be, it has a very low probability of being a flop. Capcom can hype this as much as they want to make as many people buy it as possible.

Unlike, say, certain other games that I won't bother to mention, and how they were hyped before anyone knew anything of their gameplay, and then flopped because they didn't meet expectations.

Me want!

Okay, I agree....

ME WANT! >

Corbie your new avatar creaps me out .

Now the next time i read a review from you i would picture a guy with a human version of that face typing out the review .
That would creap me out .

I want that game now!!

Wow, more reason to work for a video game media outlet. Awesomeness.

In addition to this awesomeness, I think Kirby Super Star Ultra comes out next week too!

Kind of dumb... but at first sight I though it was a real NES limited edition game.

I mean this is nice, but a real NES limited edition would really be a top collectible.

0_o

I'm not even that big a fan of Mega Man, but I want it I want it I want it!!!

@ Supermarioman — actually, if they only release 200 or so, it'll be worth far, far more than $30 on eBay.

Corbie-san: And you said that your Dragon Warrior monster avatar was scary... At least I liked all of your avatars...

By the way... all this talk about avatar-changing motivated me to change mine. I already got a few ideas...

I have GOT to be the only person who won't kill for this game. I already have Mega Man Anniversary Collection, so yeah… Flame me all ya want for that by the way.

@Corbie: You know, this new avatar looks creepier than the Skullarach.

they should give 50 of them to wii-ware world so everyone who wants one enough to post here so far gets one.

@ dr.mario: They should give 51!

But that's a neat idea they did. I really hope this comes out Monday. And I hope the week after is Bomberman for North America.

Can you imagine if more game companies noticed the importance of retro box art?
