Yeah, NT tides you over :P . Personally I kind of liked Starforce better because it was a little more classic styled, taking on superhero-like aspects. Later portions of the Battle Network based anime incorporated original content not based on the games and also revitalized the superhero aspects (by having Lan and Megaman.EXE fuse together in certain areas), but that was never dubbed.

But see you just there give even more reason for the classic Mega Man to have an anime series of his own. Oh and not only can he take off his helmet, he can in fact take off his armour too. Plus Mega Man and Astro getting the other's medium would let Astro Boy play on Mega Man's popularity perhaps. See the ideas this generation comes up with?

Hmmm saw a bit of Star Force clips and that looks quite good also. I'll have to check it out sometime - the character designs for that is definitely something I hadn't seen before =)

I like the medium exchange idea with high quality studios for both the anime Mega Man treatment and Astro Boy vid games. (Mmm...I'd love the same team [Treasure/Hitmaker/Sega] that did Omega Factor to do a series - heh).

cysdown, I'm not sure what that file is (ROM of some kind?) - I played the original game (retail). You can tell it is if its specifically for the DS (and produced by D3 and Art Co. along with Imagi).

I've heard you can unlock the classic costume (which I'm assuming means green and black undies and red boots) - assuming you've found the way, is this true? (I guess there's a possible cheat code to do this too, though I'm not sure if there's a legitimate way). Thanks.


I haven't tried it yet, but I unlocked some kind of costume cheat and so I assume that's it. Cheats are unlocked by going slightly off the beaten path, so to speak, in the game and collecting an item. Then you can enter in some kind of button code to make it happen whenever you want.

The costume cheat is unlocked very early in the game. Within the first minute or so. It's not too hard to find. Don't immediately go where you think you're supposed to and just look around for a bit, and you'll find it.

Cool. Thanks for sharing. Don't have this version yet but plan to play it (probably right after I beat Omega Factor hehe).
