An official description for “The World of Capcom Games” Comic-Con panel teased Mega Man 25th anniversary news. Yet for some strange reason, the franchise barely had a presence at the event. Other than a brief mention of a comic-related initiative that we had heard about previously, Mega Man’s name wasn’t even brought up.
So what on earth happened? As it turns out, the big news was the announcement of new Mega Man Game Boy games for the 3DS Virtual Console. Capcom community manager Brett Elston recently clarified the situation and explained why the news wasn’t shared during the actual panel:
LEGO Movie The Videogame made its playable debut at Comic-Con following last week’s announcement. For a few details about the title, check out the summary below.
– Game uses a stop-motion kind of effect for Emmet’s animation (like jumping, punching, etc.)
– TT Games originally toyed with this sort of idea for LEGO Star Wars
– Demo level takes place in a construction site in Bricksburg
– Everything is built on LEGOs (buildings, backgrounds, ground, etc.)
– Explosions are also made up of translucent bricks and fire-shaped elements
– Players can also get to experience some of the sensations that come with building with actual LEGO sets in gameplay sections that incorporate the familiar Lego instruction sheets
– Will be prompted to choose the right element in a series of steps using a radial menu
– Emmet and Vitruvius are the only confirmed characters
– Over 90 characters will be included
