Title: Mega Man 9
Post by: robot_god on October 05, 2008, 08:49:59 pm: Is so crazy, man.

Nintendo released for Wii Ware Mega Man 9 recently. It's an 8-bit game released in 2008. NES graphics, music, everything, it is an NES game. If you fit it technologically into the Mega Man series it would be between MM2 and 3.

Absolute genius. I'd love to see more of this kind of game development. ~~Probably~~Definitely the most fun game I've played this year. Just the Wii Ware in general is really brilliant (e.g. Dr. Mario, and probably the new multi-player only Bomberman that just dropped this week). I think it's the saving grace of a system whose full-production titles have been mostly disappointing.

Ya got to buy that shit, ten bucks.

Bonus Material: Penny Arcade. (http://penny-arcade.com/comic/2008/10/1/)

Yes, Mega Man 9 is sweet. It is 100% a time machine. And it is $9.99.

Tangentially related: Kirby Superstar Ultra was released for the DS recently. If you were a SNES gamer, you may remember how awesome Kirby Superstar was. Kirby Superstar Ultra is Kirby Superstar plus a bunch of neat additions that I had hoped but not expected to see in a rerelease, mainly in the form of new games that fit absolutely seamlessly with the feel of Superstar.

World of Goo is possibly the best game ever. The only good flash game ever. Too-innovative (maybe not). Very un-Japanese. Puzzle/physics simulation. It makes me weep for my sisters of the primordial ooze. Scored.

It'll make you feel like August West if he was an architect. On acid.
