Capcom is hosting a 30th anniversary celebration for Mega Man today. The main festivities begin at 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET / 7 PM in the the UK / 8 PM in Europe. However, a “Streamer Showdown” pre-shown is actually starting now.
As for what this event will actually entail, we’re not quite sure at the moment. Nintendo of America has retweeted the event, and fans have been told that it’s something they won’t want to miss. A game announcement isn’t guaranteed, but that would certainly be nice.
In any case, you can watch the live stream as it happens below. If something notable happens to come out of this, we’ll be sure to share the news.
Nintendo of America retweets news about Mega Man 30th anniversary live stream
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 23 Comments
Capcom is hosting a special 30th anniversary stream for Mega Man on Monday. Right now, we don’t know too much about it. Capcom has only said that it’s something you “won’t want to miss”.
Making things more interesting, Nintendo of America retweeted the news about the upcoming live stream. Could the reveal of a new game be happening? A new compilation that would hopefully be on Switch? Or is Capcom just stringing everyone along and a new stuffed toy will be shown instead?
No matter what happens, we’ll be there to watch over things in case anything is announced. Something game-related would be fantastic, but there are definitely no guarantees.

Posted on 6 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in General Gaming, News | 24 Comments
Capcom has announced that they will be holding a 30th anniversary Mega Man live stream on December 4th, from 11 AM to 12 PM PST on Twitch. We don’t really have any further details at this moment, other than Capcom’s insistence that “you won’t want to miss it”. The Mega Man franchise hasn’t exactly been booming lately, so it’s quite possible that this event won’t have any gaming-related news at all (or nothing Nintendo-related). In any case, if there are any big announcements during that live stream, you will hear about it from us.

Capcom hasn’t done a whole lot with Mega Man in recent years. The series has seen a couple of retro collections, but not much else. Fans might be concerned about Mega Man’s future, but Mega Man Legacy Collection 2 producer Kazuhiro Tsuchiya recently tried to put those fears to rest.
Tsuchiya said at the Tokyo Game Show last week:
