It’s finally here!  Mega Man returns to his 8-bit roots in this 9th entry of the original storyline.  It only makes sense, since Mega Man had his start on the NES, that Mega Man 9 is available first on Nintendo’s WiiWare. (That and the fact that NOA releases content on Mondays)  🙂

Go ahead and download it now, play for about 30 minutes and come back here and give me your first impressions.  Is it too difficult?  Are your reflexes still as sharp as they were 21 years ago?  Are you too young to appreciate the old school goodness of this new NES title?  What game in the series does this most resemble?

If you have any questions, I’ll try my best to answer them.  If I don’t know, I’ll get the info.

This game, from the cheesy marketing to the disappearing blocks, is a love letter to the hard core fans.  (Awww…love letter).  I’m honored to be a part of this game that has the potential to start a new trend in the industry.  On behalf of Capcom, I appreciate all your support for this game. Without further ado, I introduce to the world Mega Man 9.  (Wow, now THAT was cheesy)
