The Humble Nindie Bundle offer has now come to an end. All in all, it did quite well.

Just before the bundle offer ended and the main page refreshed, I noticed that nearly 82,500 digital packages were sold. Additionally, the average price paid came in at $9.18. Based on that information, the Humble Nindie Bundle should have generated somewhere around $750,000.

Nintendo of America’s Damon Baker was the top contributor with $500. PlayEveryWare came in second with $225, followed by Choice Provisions at $200.

You could say that this initiative was a success, so hopefully we’ll see more Humble Nindie Bundles in the future.

Last week, Renegade Kid said that it hopes to have Xeodrifter out in Europe on June 18. That date is now final. A listing for Xeodrifter on 3DS has gone up on the eShop, which comes with an official June 18 launch date. Xeodrifter will cost €8.99 in Europe.

Next up for Xeodrifter is the game’s Wii U version. It’s unclear when it’ll be coming to Nintendo’s console, but it should happen in the somewhat near future.

Capcom sent out several screenshots from the just-announced Mega Man Legacy Collection. The full set can be seen below.

Capcom has announced Mega Man Legacy Collection, a new digital package that celebrates the Blue Bomber’s 8-bit history.

Mega Man Legacy Collection features the original six Mega Man games. It’ll also offer two new modes: Challenge Mode and Museum Mode.

According to Capcom, “Challenge Mode remixes gameplay segments from all six games, with plenty of scaling difficulty objectives for experienced players to conquer yet serving as a good starting point for new players, too.” In Museum Mode, players can view “a comprehensive collection of history, high-res art and original concept pieces”.

Mega Man Legacy Collection is out on 3DS this winter. Check out the debut trailer below. Lots of additional information is posted after the break.
