We really didn't have to wait long for it as Mega Man 1 - 6 hits out on mobile this week in Japan and the US.


You may remember us talking about it last month but Capcom is bringing the entire Mega Man classic collection to iOS. As you could expect, the news has received a mixed reception ranging from excitement to calls for a new game instead of releasing the old ones.

Ported and revamped for touch screen (complete with touch controls) we'll have to wait and see how they fit into the mobile market. Though we're stoked to be able to carry around Mega Man in our pockets, it's got a lot of expectations to live up to and judging on the first bit of footage, play seems a bit jittery.

Whether its performance is down to the actual game or the recording software remains to be seen - I guess we've only got to wait a couple of days.

Pre-register for the game now. It'll be out on Android and iOS in the US January 5th and Japan January 6th. Most likely the rest of the world'll be close behind but we'll wait and see.
