Hack 'n Slash Fan-Game "Reploid Zero" Coming Later This Week

For your consideration, here's a brief look at "Reploid Zero" -- a mobile fan-game from Chateau Studios due later this week. The premise is simple: cut down as many Pantheon foot soldiers as you can while staying alive. Pantheons will retaliate with close-quarters weapons. Zero can guard against these attacks... but do it too much and they'll beat the scrap out of you.

It may not be the extensive Devil May Cry-esque Zero game some fans have longed for, but it seems fun! Check out more gameplay at Chateau's YouTube Channel here.

Is This The Logo For The New Mega Man Cartoon?

Dentsu Entertainment has whet our appetites for next year's new Mega Man cartoon with what might be the show's logo. The above image appeared on Dentsu USA's expertise landing page, where they describe everything we know so far about the project. It's certainly attuned to the familiar, right down to the classic color composition.

With little other information available about the 2017 series, it's hard to say if this is the logo or something temporarily put together. Either way, it's something to chew on. Fingers crossed for more news soon!

Keiji Inafune Makes a Super Mario Maker Level

Taking a break from wrapping Mighty No. 9, a procrastination-positive Keiji Inafune whipped up an exclusive level for Super Mario Maker. The trials players will face, he says, adhere closely to Mega Man (and Mighty No. 9) design philosophy. You'll encounter terrain with a huge emphasis on precision jumping and single-bound pitfalls. It's nostalgic, almost. The level code is: 780C-0000-020E-166A

So yeah, thanks for this one, Inafune. Now get back to work.

Mega Man Legends 2 Soars to PSN Today (Updated x2)

Residents of North American can grab Mega Man Legends 2 from PSN right now for a cool $9.99. The game is playable on PS3... but there appears to be an error on Vita and PSP. Trying to download the game on Vita results in the message "cannot download using this system." Uh-oh?

Hopefully it's just a small hiccup that will be rectified soon. I'll keep an ear to the ground; more news on this soon.

UPDATE: PSP works if you connect directly to a PS3. It appears Vita is incompatible entirely, for one reason or another

UPDATE 2: Vita works! All you need to do is buy it from your browser on PS3, then check your download list on Vita. Alternatively, try searching for MML2 from the Vita Store.

Zero Awakens in "The Legendary Reploid"
