A Mega Man movie looks to be on the way. Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman, who were responsible for the film Catfish, are “in final negotiations to write and direct,” according to Hollywood Reporter. The Mega Man movie was rumored as early as 2015.
Chernin Entertainment is said to be producing the movie with Heroes actor Masi Oka. Hollywood Reporter adds that 20th Century Fox attempted to acquire the rights for more than two years. Earlier in 2017, they finally managed to make that happen.
Specific details about the Mega Man movie have not yet been made known.

Rumor: Dataminers find text about the end of Miiverse from new Wii U update
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, Rumors | 65 Comments
Miiverse launched with Wii U back in 2012. It expanded to 3DS in later years, but the service as a whole could be coming to an end soon.
As we reported earlier, Nintendo pushed out a new update for Wii U tonight. We don’t really have any specifics, though dataminers appear to have made an interesting discovery.
This text was apparently changed with version 5.5.2:
“The Miiverse service has ended. Miiverse and any software features that make use of Miiverse are now unavailable.”
Miiverse isn’t a part of Switch at all, so it wouldn’t be entirely surprising to see the service end at some point soon. Some community members likely wouldn’t be too happy though.
