Classic Mega Man was about as "realistically optimistic" as I'd dare think when it came to, well, the fate of Mega Man at all this year. I'd have much rather seen X or Trigger.
But DAMN, did they ever pull out all the stops. Just like last time, Nintendo struts their stuff and shows the rest of the world how to make a fallen-from-grace blue guy awesome again, with a trailer you could watch 40 times and not get anywhere near tired of it. Also, lesson that Mega Man 9 needed to know: If you're going to whore MM2 nostalgia, at LEAST do it with the right music tracks. They're overused, yes, but they're overused for a reason.
I love the "HOLY SH*#!" expression on Mario's face when the Metal Blades start flying.
Pfft, I love when they put characters that are more for comedy than anything else in.
I'd say she beats the hell out of ROB...
Funny, I actually like the 3DS visuals better. The outline provides nice contrast, and the WiiU looks, I dunno, a little "washed out" in terms of its brightness. Or at least Mario does.
