Mega Man 9's newest boss: Plug Man

With just a week left until the Japanese release, Capcom has released character art and new screens of another of Mega Man 9's bosses, Plug Man. Before he was turned to eeevil, Plug Man supervised a factory's production of televisions. Now he jumps and shoots. His weapon, which imbues Mega Man with a white and light pink color scheme, is the Plug Ball, an electrical projectile that follows the contours of the terrain, even going up walls. Basically, it's the Search Snake.

Apparently, the famitsu.com writer testing the game was so enthused that the site ran pictures of him playing it, complete with the standard arms-raised victory pose. That's a pretty good sign.
