This is the obligatory Megaman 9 topic.

What's everyone's opinion on the upcoming Megaman 9?

From the videos released, it looks simply amazing to me. Some of the robot names are a little silly (Concreteman? <_<) but I feel that Megaman 9 is going to be a good entry in the series.

I'm definitely going to get this, and the cheaper price of it is a plus.

I'm looking forward to playing this game, hopefully it won't be as hard as some other original Megaman's such as 1 & 2. Also I like the variety with the robot master names, Splash Woman sounds kinky and interesting.

Also, I'll pay a max price of 1200 Wii points for this game.

Well, it is already priced for 1000 WP for the Japanese version, and I think Capcom of America already stablished that as the American Version price. So I guess you are able to afford it with your statement. =D

Really? Good to hear.

Here's a sneak peak at Megaman 9 from E3, it shows part of Plugman's stage, and part of Concreteman's stage.

It also tells us that Megaman 9 will NOT have a charge attack or slide ability. (Freaking stupid right?)

New information about Megaman 9 has just been released!

It contains details about three of the robot masters featured in Megaman 9.

Concreteman

Created to construct a dam, Concrete Man has an integral knowledge of the process and the tools to make it happen. He has a stubborn personality and has been known to tell off any lazy robots. Stupid, lazy robots.





Weapon: Concrete Shot
Creates a temporary foothold as soon as it touches the ground. It can also be used to stop enemies in their tracks.



Tornadoman

Works for the Weather Manipulation Office to help control and stop the formation of large storms all over the world.





Weapon: Tornado Blow
Launches a huge tornado that covers the entire game area. Heavy enemies will take damage, but lighter ones will be blown entirely off-screen.



Magmaman

Magma Man serves as the safety control robot at a large geothermal power plant. He is able to work in incredibly hot environments and loves to visit hot spas.





Weapon: Magma Bazooka
Shoots a cluster of fireballs that spread out after launching. It can also be charged by holding down the shot button.

I dunno but they look like recolor-edits of other previous bosses. XD


Oh well, I'm flipping out for this game, the only con I have now is that there's no Charge and Slide.

I know it sucks, but Magmaman's ability is chargeable, and it seems like one of the other robot masters gives you an ability that allows you to slide, even if it does consume weapon energy.

First off, in this picture you can see the heads of all the Megaman 9 bosses. The order from left to right is:

Galaxyman, Magmaman, Hornetman, Splashwoman, Plugman, Jewelman, Tornadoman, and then Concreteman.




Three new robot master official artwork pictures have been spoiled for the public, along with their special abilities that Megaman can learn.

Galaxyman - Looks pretty cool



Learned Move: Black Hole Bomb





Hornetman - Probably the coolest looking robot master next to Knightman IMO.



Learned Move: Hornet Chaser






Caption Queer .... Jewelman



Learned Move: Jewel Satellite
