Despite the fact that Capcom canned the project, some hardcore fans of the now-unreleased Mega Man Legends 3 have decided to go ahead and make their own version of the game in 8bit, classic Mega Man style. That’s not all though: They’re also getting help from two former Capcom employees that worked on the Legends series, Hideki Ishikawa and Makoto Tomozawa. Ishikawa was the character designer for the series and Tomozawa composed the music. Both will be helping out by contributing box art and music to the game.

Nintendo’s official website listings aren’t always the most accurate, but one such entry suggests that Vampire Master of Darkness will be heading to the 3DS eShop this week. The classic game will supposedly be available on the Virtual Console this Thursday for $4.99. We’ll know in a few days if the listing is spot on or another error on Nintendo’s part.

In the early-to-mid 2000s, if you ever had a class in school that was in the computer lab, chances are everyone was doing one thing — playing addicting Flash games. Such games were so addicting because they would provide plenty of levels, challenge, and frustration, and everyone was trying to get farther than their friends, or asking “if you got past that one part,” and if so, “HOW DID YOU DO IT?!”

Why am I mentioning flash games in a review for a 3DS game? Because Urban Trial Freestyle— like the games it takes obvious inspiration from, Trials Evolution and Trials HD— is heavily based on those old physics-challenge motocross flash games, which drew influence from the Motocross Maniacs games before that. I’m not going to be throwing around legal terms or calling anything a “blatant rip-off,” however, because regardless of originality, Urban Trial Freestyle is a very fun game.

The Virtual Boy would seem like a perfect fit for the 3DS Virtual Console. It was the company’s first 3D console, so its games could potentially see new life on Nintendo’s handheld.

One investor asked Nintendo president Satoru Iwata about the possibility of introducing Virtual Boy games for the 3DS VC service during the company’s latest financial meeting.

Iwata responded by saying that investor Q&As aren’t the place for new announcements. However, he did note that even though the Virtual Boy didn’t go so well, some consumers liked it for its uniqueness.
