Another Mega Man game coming to DS
According to DSX-2, the successor to the Rockman.EXE series (Mega Man Battle Network to the rest of the world) has been formally announced as Ryusei no Rockman and will be shipping to Japanese gamers come this winter. The new hero will be named Seiga Subaru. Nothing else in the way of actual info can be gleamed from the source (Corocoro magazine), so keep an eye on DS Fanboy for future updates.
Mega Man ZX interacts with Zero 3 and 4
It looks like the first side-scrolling Mega Man for the DS, Mega Man ZX, has some functionality with Mega Man Zero 3 and Mega Man Zero 4. Japanese gamers obviously already know this, likely already having difficulties quelling a robotic revolution, but for us gamers outside those islands, this is news. Right now, the only confirmed feature is the ability to revive bosses from Zero 3 and 4, should the player have either of those GBA games in the slot on his/her DS while playing ZX.[Via Go Nintendo]
Mega Man ZX screenshots and artwork
There's a plethora of gameplay screenshots and artwork for the upcoming Mega Man ZX over at ITmedia. The sprites aren't looking too great, yet that can be largely attributed to the fact that the gameplay screenshots are not actual size. Some of the artwork looks very good, along with the backgrounds. The current word on the net is that the player can choose either Van or Eile who, upon collecting some form of "living metal" throughout the game, augment their armor in various ways. [Via QJ.net]
