Interesting...I'd probably only do the Proto Man just to sayI have him.
Kryptinite's Destructoid Blog
booooooooo! Would be awesome if they included all of this with the game.
NotAZombie's Destructoid Blog
Umm, this is bullshit. Hero and Superhero mode? Get the fuck out Capcom. You did great with BC:Rearmed but this is horrible.
Dead Movie Star's Destructoid Blog
Scam-com?
power-glove's Destructoid Blog
3 dollars just for something that eliminates the three shot minimum, Japanese developers really don't have a clue on how DLC works. That is pathetic.
ZekeThePlumber's Destructoid Blog
I'm not sure if I'll go for the extra difficulties but if you think about it, most people (myself included) would have easily paid more for MM9, so MM9 + Proroman for $12 doesn't seem too bad an offer.
power-glove's Destructoid Blog
My mistake, I didn't read the description of Endless attack. But,still, overall that is poor showing for DLC.
Knives's Destructoid Blog
I'll probably get the protoman one, but I'll have to see vids of the level ones before deciding on those.
king3vbo's Destructoid Blog
That should all be included in the game. Freakin lame
P3T3Y's Destructoid Blog
If you compare it to the price of the old Mega Man games when they came out, MM9 + all this DLC (and the potential for more) is a steal.

I think I can live without Protoman, but sign me up for Endless Attack and the Special Stage. I'll be on the fence about new difficulties until I've had some time with it.

. . source?

THe more I think about it, the more Hero and Super Hero mode seem like a very interesting concept. Extreme amounts of enemies could prove to be a lot of fun, if it isn't incredibly cheap.
Torzelan's Destructoid Blog
It shall all be mine. Funny how a couple of relatively small bonus thingies cost nearly the same as the entire game though.

@Tubatic

The information comes straight from the 'Mega Man 9' entry on the Wii Shop Channel.

sweeeeet

All you guys talking shit about this are fags. If you don't want it, don't buy it you pussies. STFUAJPG.
Sharpless's Destructoid Blog
You know, this isn't even worth complaining about anymore. This is just full-on DLC abuse. There's no saving this title. They're going to rape you retro fanatics senseless, and you'll be smiling the whole way. Sigh.

@SantanaClaus
"STFUAJPG" does not, not, NOT apply here. We just happen to care about the integrity and quality of the industry that we love. That's why we complain. We don't want to see developers skimping on content in the final game, while pumping out DLC immediately after release. I have no intention of going anywhere near this shitty franchise, but I have every intention of being pissed at the developers and annoyed with the people who suck this crap up happily.
Brilliam's Destructoid Blog
Why would anyone complain about this? The people who are casually going ot play the game pay less than the psychos who want to beat it in every way possible. I am all for this if it keeps the cost of new games down at $10. I'll gladly put up another $10 if I like a game so much I've exhausted it and want more!
SantanaClaus89's Destructoid Blog
@ Brilliam

You're absolutely correct. It's a shame that people like Sharpless who want everything handed to them on a silver platter for free can't seem to understand your point.

Did Mega Man 1-6 have multiple playable characters? Did they have multiple difficulties? (other than MM2, no) Did they have endless levels?

NO!

So you're not really being skimped on any content now are you? Also, MM1-6 cost $50 apiece. MM9 costs $10.
Wexx's Destructoid Blog
I'd rather pay $15 and have them include this. really capcom?
Sharpless's Destructoid Blog
@SantanaClaus89
Oh, I see. So, wanting companies to put some effort into their games and not try to milk their fans for every cent they can is wanting everything handed to me on a silver platter for free? Not wanting to pay for content that every other developer would have put in the final version of their game is wrong? Well, boy, that's sure news to me. But I guess you'll make up any excuse to excuse your blind fanboy tendencies.

You are the reason that developers and companies like Microsoft are allowed to put bullshit DLC out there, like Oblivion's horse armor, Ninja Gaiden 2's costumes, and Beautiful Katamari's "extra" levels. Congrats, bud. You're inheriting a shitty, charge-for-everything industry that you helped create. Hope you enjoy it, because it's only going to get worse from here on out.
