Got $10 bucks? That's what it will cost to play Mega Man 9 this fall on WiiWare, says Famitsu of Japan -- but the game is an NES title.
Funny to think this screen was designed in 2008, not 1985.
According to Famitsu, the all-new NES game is priced at one Alexander Hamilton, at least in Japan.
As previously revealed, Mega Man 9 will be exclusive to WiiWare, Nintendo's downloadable new game service, and is expected to debut in America shortly after its September release in Japan.
In addition to pricing and dates, Famitsu also revealed six new screenshots for the game, which was jointly announced by Capcom and Nintendo power last month.
I'll be perfectly honest: while I'm thrilled with the idea of an all-new NES game in the form of Mega Man 9, I'd rather see it done in stylized 16-bit graphics -- som'n like Minish Cap or another.

Oh, and Mega Man better be able to charge his shot. I remember playing the NES titles and I think most (if not all) of them didn't have the charge shot technique.

For 10$, it's a pretty good deal. The best Megaman games were all 8-bit, so it just makes sense to stick with 8-bit. Hope it sells well and devs keep making more of these new retro games.

Mega Man games are always fun, I can't wait to play it. . . But I would also like to see a full blown next-gen reboot, and see what they can do with it
