Currently revealed is the ability to play as Proto Man from the start, as well as announcing the existence of a 3rd mystery playable character.

I'm not sure you'll ever get it, but with any luck Needlemouse will turn out to be the next best thing.

Who am I kidding?

But in all honesty I would have been much more interested in Megaman 10 if it went for hand-drawn visuals.

For the Sonic Part- Depressing Ain't it. Smilie

Rush Adventure was ok, but... I think the Sonic team don't get it. RA was really fast but they need to do better level design, Like how Sonic 2 or even 1 was. Those were brilliant hence why Sonic and Mario use to compete in the same level but, Mario is just so ahead of Sonic in terms of everything nowadays.

I really hope Sonic could stand side by side with Mario in terms of greatness once more. Smilie

Meh, Mega Man 9 cost far too much for what it was (even without the premium expansions). Mega Man 10 is set to be just as much of a raw deal for anyone who buys it, so it can fuck off as far as I'm concerned. It should not cost as much as far more technically-accomplished games.

@Martin_: Really? 10 bucks is too much for a great retro-style game? I paid $50 back in the day for each of the Megaman NES releases so being able to enjoy Megaman 9 in Wiiware for $10+DLC is just great and the price is right.
