Missed any of the action from the Mega Man 30th anniversary celebration live stream? If so, don’t fret. We have the full recording attached below.

Had history taken a different direction, the first Resident Evil could have ended up as a very different game. Capcom’s Koji Oda told Game Informer that it was originally in development for the SNES.

Some of you may know that Resident Evil was inspired by the horror title Sweet Home, and was a spiritual successor of sorts. It makes sense then that it started off on the SNES. But as Oda mentioned, when the PlayStation came into the picture, Capcom shifted to that platform.

Capcom is hosting a 30th anniversary celebration for Mega Man today. The main festivities begin at 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET / 7 PM in the the UK / 8 PM in Europe. However, a “Streamer Showdown” pre-shown is actually starting now.

As for what this event will actually entail, we’re not quite sure at the moment. Nintendo of America has retweeted the event, and fans have been told that it’s something they won’t want to miss. A game announcement isn’t guaranteed, but that would certainly be nice.

In any case, you can watch the live stream as it happens below. If something notable happens to come out of this, we’ll be sure to share the news.
