  • Mega Man/Sonic Crossover

    The webmaster of the Offical Mega Man Homepage (also her novel series simply titled "Mega Man the Series Homepage" ) has written a novel-length epic called "Of Flesh and of Steel". I hate to disappoint you Knuckles fans but the only Sonic characters appearing are Sonic, Tails and Eggman.

    The Interactive Digital Software Association, which includes every major game publisher in the industry, has made a proposal to the the U.S. Federal Trade Commission. It includes restrictions on the marketing of M-rated games. Some restrictions have been summarized on GameCenter.

    Print (including game publications): Ads for Mature-rated games may not be placed in magazines where 45 percent or more of the readers are under 17.
    Analysis: By our count, there are only three magazines in the industry whose audience does not fit this profile.
    TV advertising: Ads for Mature-rated games may not be placed on programs where 35 percent or more of the viewers are under 17.
    Analysis: By this definition, a game such as Resident Evil could not be advertised on MTV.
    Internet ads: Paid ads for M-rated games shall not be placed on Web sites where 45 percent or more of the visitors are under 17.
    Analysis: The document states that Media Metrix data will be used to establish the demographic of Web site audiences. Considering how many fan sites are too small for Media Metrix to measure, this could make it impossible for any independent sites to secure advertising revenue.

    Mega Man’s Designer – Keili Inafune?

    From Peter Jenkins on the Mega Man mailing list:

    I remember some discussion in the past where people were trying to decide WHO it was that originally envisioned our fave little hero. All of the names listed in the credits of the N.E.S. games are strange little pun-names, almost nick-names, and offer no helpful insight. Well, in the latest Hyper magazine (which is easily the best gaming mag in Australia) they interviewed a man called Keili Inafune about his upcoming game, Onimusha. ("Ogre Samurai," is apparently a translation of the title) Anyway, in one of the questions, Hyper say to Inafune-san "You are the creator of Mega Man. To create Onimusha, did you work to some specs given to you, or did you create the game idea and present it to Capcom?"

    Perhaps this man is Capcom's Shigeru Miyamoto - the ideas man... Whether they meant that HE was the person who invented Mega Man or they were talking about Capcom in general is not specifically clear, but still... It turns out that this is actually Inafking, producer of many of the MM games. Considering how many he's been listed in, it seems pretty likely that he did design MM.
