Recently, Famitsu published a big interview with a couple of the developers working on Mega Man 11. The Japanese magazine caught up with producer Kazuhiro Tsuchiya and director Koji Oda. There was a lot of interesting discussion in the lengthy interview.
A new Capcom sale is up and running on the Nintendo Switch eShop, and it includes the lowest prices ever for games like Mega Man 11 and Monster Hunter Rise. You can also save on Devil May Cry and Resident Evil titles.
This would hardly be the first time either of these franchises attempted to reinvent themselves, but the execution and timing of these releases makes them especially compelling. In the case of Super Mario Bros. Wonder, it's set to be the first new entry in the series in over ten years, introducing a bold new art direction in the process. For Sonic Superstars, it's coming at a time when Sonic Team is on a bit of a hot streak, riding the success of Sonic Frontiers. It's enough to make some gamers consider what other 2D platforming icons deserve a bold new entry, and there's one robot-busting character who is long overdue: Mega Man.
The Humble Capcom Heroic Collection Bundle just launched recently. It has ten items including Monster Hunter Rise, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy, Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection, and more.
I took advantage of the $1 deal for lost planet 3, strider, bionic commando and mega man. 3 of them run great on my steam deck. bionic commando sadly does not.
ive left humble bundle long time ago the pricimng is now off as well as game collection. humble monthly used to be excellent but thasts also downhill
“This is the first game in the series since Mega Man 10, eight years ago.”
This is also the first game in the classic series since Mega Man 8 to push the franchise forward in 21 years instead of retreading old ground.
On a side note Mega Man X Legacy Collection 1 & 2 will be the first solely internally developed Mega Man project since Mega Man Star Force 3, 9 years ago.
Mega Man's English voice in this game has received quite a bit of flack, with many fans commenting how oddly and inappropriately deep it sounds, especially since he's generally had a much younger and boyish-sounding voice in games like Mega Man 8, Marvel Vs Capcom, and Mega Man Powered Up (which wasn't as deep by comparison).
I don’t get how they can get the range of the voice so right with his Japanese voice, which sounds younger and closer to that of the three aforementioned games, yet go in the polar opposite direction with his western voice.
I can't wait for this!
