Another new Mega Man: Fully Charged character surfaces
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
A couple of months ago, new art surfaced for the Mega Man animated series – now known as Mega Man: Fully Charged. It offered a glimpse at five different Robot Masters.
Thanks to the the latest Licensing Source Book, we have a new look at one of the unrecognizable characters shown in the art. It’s a yellow-looking design who is drawing comparisons to Starscream from Transformers – at least based on the somewhat blurry appearance above. Whether he’s a reinterpretation of a classic Robot Master or someone entirely new is unknown.
Rockman Corner reports that we should be getting more details about Mega Man: Fully Charged this summer or possibly sooner. Since the show is debuting on Cartoon Network this year, we do need to start hearing more.

Earlier in the month, Nicalis announced that Ikaruga is coming to Switch. The reveal was made through social media as well as an official press release.
Had Nicalis had its way, the announcement would have gone down slightly differently. The company actually reached out to Nintendo about revealing the news in a Nintendo Direct, but the Big N “wasn’t interested.”

Okami HD physical release up for pre-order on Play-Asia
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
As things stand now, Okami HD won’t have a physical release on Switch in the west. But in Japan, the situation is different. Capcom confirmed this week that Japanese fans will have access to a retail version.
If you’re interested, you can pre-order a copy on Play-Asia here. We don’t have official confirmation that English will be included, but we do believe it will happen given Capcom’s other games on Switch and the fact that it’s a simultaneous worldwide launch. If we hear otherwise, we’ll be sure to let you know.
