That link just goes to a deleted blog post or w/e. But I really want one.

Best box art ever. It really takes me back to the days when a game's box art had absolutely nothing to do with the game it contained. Wow, Capcom really went all out on this one.

I still have to wonder, why is the game on Xbox 360 and PS3? It's essentially a new NES game (with non of those fancy HD super-realistic graphics you PS3 and Xbox gamers love so much), so it should be exclusive to the Wii.

And yes, they should do more "classic-style" games. Sonic 4, Super Mario Bros. 5, Metroid, anything!
People who like video games should also like Nintendo. People who don't like Nintendo obviously don't like video games.

Remember that your first Goomba boldly you walk? When Mario touched that mushroom being brought up more largely remember that you are surprised? Miscalculate your jump that pit remember that it falls?

The game was originally developed solely with WiiWare in mind, but they threw it up on Ecksbocks Live as an afterthought. General consensus is that the WiiWare version is better.

Better...how? As in, Wii does simple graphics better, or what?

Well, there's that, but a sideways Wiimote also imitates an NES controller better.

Graphics, graphics, graphics. Why is the argument always about graphics? Sheesh. And this game was practically made just to destroy those arguments. I must agree about the controller, though.

Holy. Snap. I thought MM was trapped in the hole I dug. Ah well. Nice to meet ya.

Anyways, I'm best with Wiimote on NES games.

WiiWare Mega Man 9: 480p

360/PS3 Mega Man 9: 1080p


It's not better on Wii. It's blurrier on Wii.

High resolution doesn't work for NES games anyway, plus I don't see how that automatically makes a game "better".

Unfortunately my TV does not have HDMI input and can only display 1080i.  If it could display full 1080p HD I'd consider the PS3 version, but as is MM9 has black bars on each side when playing on my PS3.  I could probably set the PS3 to show MM9 full screen, but that would be a hassle since the PS3 doesn't remember settings for each game.  My Wii at 480p displays full screen.  While this is a lower resolution than the PS3 version I'd rather play full screen with an NES styled Wiimote.  The PS3 controller isn't necessarily bad; I'm just trained to roll my thumb on side-by-side buttons from the NES Mega Man days.

So, a good game with good graphics on PS3 or 360 is bad, but the same game with worse graphics on Wii is good?

I gotta clean off the wall behind my head, 'cause that just blew my mind.

It's pretty much irrelevant with MM9 unless you want your pixels to have slightly sharper edges (and be made of more pixels). As it is, it looks the same as an NES game on my Wii, and I believe that was the intended effect.
That was a joke.
