Capcom granting Mega Man 9 swag to worthy fans

by JC Fletcher { Oct 3rd 2008 at 5:15PM }

Remember the Mega Man 9 press kit? Of course you do -- a better question may be "Have you been able to drive the Mega Man 9 press kit out of your thoughts for even a single, restful second?" Well, if you're freaking out about this item, you should take your nervous energy and put it to good use on Capcom's Mega Man forum.

The Capcom Unity staffers are picking worthy fans and handing them redemption codes for free press kits. The item is apparently hidden in the store somewhere, priced exorbitantly, but we haven't been able to find it. If you are in the mood to spend money on one of these, there's always eBay.

Eh, I'm just glad to have the game.

THIS JUST IN:
I finished Mega Man 1 and it only took me 20 years!

As for the press kit, I'm a bit disappointed that it's just a CD with stuff; it'd be far more interesting if it were actually MM9 on a Wii disc.

I thought it would be cool if it had all the DLC and like Ummmmm Stuff. . .

And now I just finished MM2 for the first time - sweet.

I've already started MM9 now too and, uh, yep, died in 10 seconds! Good times =]

Watch: The Press Kit will be on The Pirate Bay five to fifteen minutes after someone gets theirs.

The actual disc is just various assets. That's nothing particularly interesting. The fun part is the NES cartridge case in the NES-style box.

If someone manages to upload physical objects to a torrent site, that'll be the most interesting thing ever. :P

Hmmm...I might've been interested in trying to win a copy...if I thought I'd ever get it if I won.

To this day, I still have not received the Phoenix Wright plushie and signed poster I was supposed to have won for placing in the Phoenix Wright LOLcat-ish contest they had a while back.

And I've tried all sorts of ways to contact them and have never received a response.

So yeah, if any of you guys 'win'...don't expect anything.
