Happy New Year everyone! Today we all got back to the office after our holiday break, and what a nice surprise to see this lovely animation by  ultimatemaverickx ( or UMX ). Keep reading to see a Servbot from  Megaman Legends megamerge into Model X, from  Mega Man ZX  in an awesome parody animation.

Yea, I know  MMLegends is GregaMan ‘s department, but I’m definitely the biggest  ZX fan in the team here… and doing a quick ” background check ” on this UMX person (aka: going through  deviantart  and YouTube ), we can clearly see their love for both  MMZero and   MMZX , with some  MMX here and there too.

And did I mention UMX’s amazing animation skills?

Well, the video above should be proof of it, but here’s some more:

Today Mega Man X2 joins its predecessor (and Mega Man 1~4) on Nintendo’s Wii U eShop. It comes with all the usual trimmings, such as Miiverse support, creeping save states and, of course, Bubble Crab.

B-Crab isn’t my favorite jam from X2, but I lovvve the opening notes. So cave-y and water-y, really sets the mood.

Anywho, y’all Wii U owners can grab the game today – and yes, the aforementioned Game Boy titles are still coming to 3DS, I just don’t have a hard date yet.
