Oh god. Mega Man 8's robot's names are horrendous. Clown man? Grenade man? SWORD man?! What is this randomness I'm smelling? What I do remember from MM8 was the difficulty. That damn difficulty.

Mega Man 6 is just as bad.
Plant Man
Centaur Man
Yamato Man

And don't forget about Mega Man 10!
Nitro Man
Sheep Man
Strike Man
Pump Man

@WaveBoy

Mega Man 4's music is nowhere near as bad as Mega Man 6. The only good song from Mega Man 6 is Wind Man.

Here's a sample of Mega Man 4 and 5. Tell me if you hate that music.

MEGA MAN 4 - Skull Man

MEGA MAN 5 - Napalm Man

MEGA MAN 5 - Gyro Man

Mega Man 3 and 4 were composed by the same person, BUN BUN. That's why their music sounds so similar. Whoever composed Mega Man 5 must have taken inspiration from those games.

I will just go ahead and say that the US Wii VC games are done... When the Sega Master System started taking games back... It was dead!!! ""Like the red blinking light on our NES""

Stark- Throw on some hot rod red...

Jarvis- Yes, that will help you keep a low profile...

I hate the fact the Wii VC is dead and buried, but it does save me money now that I no longer need buy Wii Point cards.

Here is "some news regarding the state of the Wii VC." As long VC games are available from redeeming your Club Nintendo coins, Ryno is going to download them. You guys wanted some new news right?

Reggie says the Wii VC isn't dead but there hasn't been a single release since. Here we are two weeks left in the year and still nothing. VC Must be in a coma then. If we don't get something before christmas I'm sending a very strongly worded E-mail.

Does anyone know if Nintendo is aloud to put up DK64 or is it because of Rare.

Did Rare not develop the orginal SNES Donkey Kong Country games that are currently on the VC?

I love answering a question with a question.

They haven't put it up not because of copyright issues, but because Rare used a certain chip or something in the game (and most of their other N64 games) that makes it hard to emulate, and also hard to put on the VC.

Like the SNES version of Starfox that had the FX chip. So 2D polygons can give the appearance of rotation in a 3D frame... Or a ship can turn left! LOL

you know what they say, talk is cheap and actions speak louder than words.

this hiatus has gone on for too long and i don't get why they release V.C games for the 3ds, which is great but not for the wii V.C as well.

While we're at it let's ask them why Castlevania Bloodlines never got released.
I mean come on dammit give us something. Wii U won't be out for another year probably.
Let's add something to the current system as long as it's still breathing.
Reggie can talk all he wants about the VC not being dead but until something has been added it's dead.

I would love more Arcade games like a 4 player Teenage Mutant Turtles 1 & 2, X-Men, Simpsons, 1 player Stryder and many other Arcade games.

Konami stopped caring about the VC long before the VC died. Their last game in America was Rondo of Blood and I'm not aware of any of their games released in Japan after that.

Perhaps before they stopped releasing games that the likes of NES Contra and Bloodlines were going to come at some point. Then something happened and Konami lost interest.

Edgey, Gumshoe, Godot, Sissel, Larry, then Mia, Franziska, Maggie, Kay and Lynne.

I'm throwing my money at the screen but nothing happens!
