I dunno, it's kinda like the worst of what mega man art could be stepped up just enought to be almost acceptable. Doesn't make me want to buy the game... Not quite craptacular, but slightly craptoriffic?

It's like the other ones, but they tried to hard on Wily.

I saw it on I-Mockery, and I guess some place was giving them away.

I think they're really trying too hard to cash in on the retro craze, and this poster only adds to it.  But if it's a good game, I won't care.

I would hang it up on my wall, but I would never pay more than $15 for it(if it's a full size poster at that) and even that price is pushing it. I like it but not for that kind of price :-\

I think it's hilarious and I desperately want a t-shirt of that.

Mega Man 9 is the last Wii game of the year I'm looking forward to.

Oh, won't somebody appreciate the irony  :D

The MM9 poster is bad on purpose, and is a throwback to the awful US artwork of MM1.  Of course the Rockman 9 poster is better (and more fitting to the series), but if you're selling a game by telling everyone it's like a Famicom/NES game, you might as well sell the whole experience.  If they're including the sprite-flicker and slowdown of the NES games, why not include the bad artwork as well?

The Rockman poster follows the traditional Famicom art -- so it's both a throwback AND much nicer. So, according to your statement of "selling the whole experience"...they are both here and in Japan!

I actually like it, looks like they were trying to mix the styles of all the boxes.  Sucky though it may be, I have fond memories of the first game's art.  I remember, even back then when it was released, thinking 'who drew this?'

I had no idea that a Mega Man 9 game had been (or is being) made?  Is this "official" or someone's *dream project*  ??? It mentions 8-BITs, so I'd assume it's a fan made NES game?  Seriously I'm in the dark on this, though I think that poster is worlds cooler than it deserves to be, considering  how the original Mega Man NES cover had him as some old dude with Captain Power like armor on.

Its an official game from capcom, all 8-bit graphics. Its available now for download on Wii, Xbox 360, and PS3 for $10. And its a great game.

Oh.  Thanks for clearing that up, but I was kinda hoping there'd be a tangible cart I could buy.  Yet another game I'll miss out on simply because I see no point in buying any of the so called "Next Gen" systems.  I should've guessed it was a *downloadable* game and not a real product.   :(  Guess it's cool that Capcom would even bother doing it in 8-BIT graphics though, I'm assuming it's high res (glossy) 8-BITS?  Or does it retain an actual Famicom/NES "look" to it?

Yes, there's a very nice Rockman Poster. I have two of it (bought on Rockman Summer Festival). Thinking to trade with some good NES game.

This is the art, but the poster is slightly different, this image is just missing the logo.
