"Ever wonder what it’d be like if the original Mega Man had that fancy pants sound chip that the Japanese version of Castlevania III: Dracula’s Curse had? Well, even if you didn’t, Chiptune artist RushJet1 has done just that with a new album entitled “Mega Man Remade.”
The album, available on Bandcamp for “Name Your Price,” features enhanced versions of all the classic tunes from the original NES game, which was originally composed by Mighty No. 9 co-composer Manami Matsumae . These tunes were redone in the audio style of those few Famicom titles like Castlevania III: Dracula’s Curse (Akumajo Densetsu in Japan) and Esper Dream II that utilized the Konami-produced VRC6 micro-processor chip." - Patrick Kulikowski
Capcom is planning to develop brand new titles in the Mega Man franchise on an ongoing basis in the future.
Question is always going to be what are you going to do with it? Capcom has burnt mega man fans many a time and trust is low overall so I think a bold new direction may not be the best idea unless it's backed with a sonic mania style project alongside it.
I could see a bold new 3d take on the Willy wars alongside a mania style game being very popular.
Just keep it far away from Live services and loot boxes
Sounds like a plan Capcom. Just don't forget the disc. Also I think alot of the mega man base would love to see a return of the rpg
You know... I realy think a MM game that plays like ratchet and clank can work great! Mega Man can be very light hearted and family friendly, something for everyone If they use a formula similar to Ratchet and Clank, i realy want to see Capcom giving It a try.
Capcom says it wants to take 'great care' in new Mega Man games, is not interested in rushing new products out in order to maximize repeated sales.
Good good good. Take your time... But don't wait too long.. lol. Need some Mega Man 202X
5 years was than enough time for a new Mega Man game. The RE franchise had 3 remakes and RE8 in the last five years. Mega Man ain't that deep Capcom. Get it done. 🤣
The first brand spanking new megaman I really want them to make is... actually revive and continue the Legends 3 game. Realistically though, the next would probably be megaman 12, then a new battle network game.
Can we get an X reboot in 2-D with anime cutscenes?
I like Megaman but always thought X was cooler.
Capcom has unveiled and listed new Mega Man merchandise for pre-order to celebrate the multi-faceted franchise's 35th Anniversary...
