Most of the Mega Man games on MMAC also were PSX titles at one time in Japan, the games were retitled Rockman Complete Works 1-6, apparently RMCW had more options in the option menu, but not all options carried over to the MMAC collection.

yup and I hate how it never got a release outside of Japan with as big as rockman is in the rest of the world as well. Seeing the old games rereleased for the PS1 when it was at it's peak would have been tight. No reason to make us wait another 8 years.

Konami, may I remind you, made Contra 4 possible. And that game actually had good graphics.

And in good Contra tradition, it is extremely fking hard to beat. Playing Contra 4 in hard mode will make you a man.

True, though after a ton of playthroughs, I can now regularly beat the game on Hard without using continues.

Just the other day I managed to clear Hard mode with 17 lives in tow, and with only one death to speak of. (one of the projectiles from the fish boss miraculously managed to get through my upgraded Spread Shot...)

Well, Rockman 9 IS coming, but not only to WiiWare, but PSN and XBox Live Arcade too.

THAT is one KICKASS trailier!!!!!, and this game looks like it has everything that made the other ones so epic including it's own unique superbly konami level of quality soundtrack!!!! It reminds me of being six againa nd popping in megaman 2. And I'm so glad it's not just coming out for WII as I'd probably have to resort to an online purchase at  this point if I could even find one close to it's retail price. I've been thinking about getting a PS3 and this clenches it, I HAVE to have this game.

That's funny.  Buying a PS3 for an 8-bit game?  :P

I wonder...  If its going to be available through PSN --would that not also make Megaman 9 available for PSP?

ya know the newest model psp has video out plugs on it so you can just hook it up to a tv. I played SoTN from DracX Chronicles like that for about... 12 hours straight.

Yeah if this were made in the 80's the boxart would have probably totally looked like that.
