you just found out now NN? i have known at least for two weeks, it was recently confirmed it will be all 3 systems.

That's correct tails...I had no clue. I would have known sooner if I looked at my August issue of Nintendo Power magazine sooner.

[tails]

I knew about it before seemingly someone found it leaked on the internet.

Wonder what Bass will look like 8-bit?

[NintendoNerds]

What are these pictures of tails?

[tails]

The bosses of MM9.

[NintendoNerds]

Why are they black and white though?

[tails]

Best I could find.

In nintendo Power they revealed with color.

Apparently Galaxyman is the creators favorite.

[NintendoNerds]

CRAP!!! This is out now...as of today!! See you guys later!! I'll let everyone know what it's like tomorrow. I forgot all about this today!! ..later!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Haha, my roommate is obsessed with getting this game. He's a hardcore Mega Man fan.

NN sound like hes on speed.

Have fun NN.

[NintendoNerds]

As far as being on speed...I was...I immediately downloaded it and started playing it. I'd say it is well worth the 10 bucks. A new 8-bit Mega Man title!? This game is preety sweet. It has a nice variety of "new things," which I might reveal later on. I managed to beat Splash Women and then saved the game for the evening. Ahhh yes...the melodic 8-bit midi music is one that remains vivid my my mind

This is an awesome game!

Anyone else grab it?
