Supposed “image” taken by a cell phone “camera” of “Mega Man 9″ by a “beta tester”

Let’s get one thing straight: the game IS coming in some way, shape, or form. That’s ALL we know for sure. That said, this is just too juicy not to post. A man claiming to be a beta tester for Mega Man 9 snapped this photo with his girlfriend’s phone. That’s the best he claims he could get, and you can read up on why in his letter after the break. The letter states that it wasn’t sent to the larger websites for fear that he could get in trouble, but we all know news spreads like wildfires on these gaming sites.

The letter also reconfirms the rumors we’ve heard, stating the game will sport classic, 8-bit graphics, will not have anything to do with the X series, and now brings to the table that the game supports 480p resolution and will eventually be in widescreen.

Dear Rockman Perfect Memories,

I’m a beta tester for Capcom, and it’s been a lot of fun reading all these posts about Rockman 9!

I’m one of the people who gets to test it! :D

Ever since I started playing it, I’ve wanted to take pictures and post them online, but they check you for cameras every time before you go into the room to play. Well I thought I’d try something tricky after a few months of beta testing, so I borrowed my girl friend’s phone. The guys there trust me enough not to pat me down anymore and they’ll let me hand them my phone. So, I took a quick picture of the screen with my girl friend’s phone! Sorry it’s so blurry and dark, but she’s got a really old phone.

I want to just send it to you guys because I don’t want it to get too much attention (Which is why I’m not sending it to Kotaku, or 1-Up.). But I’ll confirm a few things about the game:

- You can play as Blues.
- The graphics are in the 8-bit sprite style, but not the classic Famicom/NES one.
- It doesn’t have anything to do with the X series.
- Tango is in it, and works just like the Rockman World Game Boy version.
- The game doesn’t support full wide screen YET, but it will.
- It does support 480p.

Also, PLEASE don’t reveal my alias, e-mail name, or e-mail address! I don’t want anyone to know I’m the one who sent this in!

  • Meh. I seriously doubt this is legit.

    What does he mean by classic 8-bit style? That screenshot certainly doesn't look "8-bit", unless he just means 2D or something. I don't know why they'd go with 8 bit anyways.
