Refreshed look for the Battle Network pages
Site news, by Dr. Cossack on 8 April 2023 at 15:35

With the upcoming release of the Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection, featuring all the mainline Battle Network titles, I've taken the opportunity to refresh the appearance of their information pages. One of the main attractions of this site today are the maps for the series, as the games often have maze-like layouts. No new information is added today, but the pages now have a clearer display and links that are easier to hit. This will be especially useful to those hoping to use their phones or tablets to browse the maps as they play through the series, maybe for the first time!

I also revised the Battle Network 6 page to clarify the status of the areas. Some were cut from the international releases back in the day, but they are expected to be restored in the collection. They are identified as such.

Happy battling!

Mega Man: the Wily Wars getting a physical release
Original Series, by Dr. Cossack on 19 May 2021 at 20:21

You thought that Mega Man: the Wily Wars getting included in the Sega Genesis Mini was a surprise? I've got something to one-up this: the game is getting a physical, North American release, this year.

For those not in a know, Wily Wars is a compilation of Mega Man 1 to 3, remade for the Sega Genesis. If you're familiar with Super Mario All-Stars, which compiled and remade the NES Mario games for the SNES, Wily Wars essentially did the same with the first three Mega Man titles. A solid effort, it never received a physical release in North America, so it went unknown to a lot of potential players.

Thanks to Retro-Bit, this oversight is finally getting rectified! With the blessing of Capcom, the game is getting a physical release as a Sega Genesis cartridge, fully compatible with the original console for those that still have one. This package is a collector's edition with additional goodies, such as a certificate of authenticity, an instruction manual, cards, a poster and more.

This limited release will begin pre-orders this Friday at 10am, Eastern time, and will run for a month. The entire package will sell for $69.99 / €69,99. If you're interested in the game, this is an opportunity that you won't want to miss!

Twenty-first anniversary!
Site news, by Dr. Cossack on 6 May 2021 at 21:56

Still here, still holding the fort! Happy 21st, Dr. Cossack's Lab!

News have been slow about new games and website updates, but I have been busy in the meantime. The parent website, Interordi, received a major overhaul last summer while other sections have taken major leaps forward. Would you like to be notified when there's something new on the Interordi network? Then sign-up for the Interordi mailing list! Messages will be sent only for major updates and additions, likely a few times a year at most, so you won't get spammed by this.

If you want to stay in touch, the forums are always open and our Discord server is often busy! Thank you for visiting!

Twentieth anniversary!
Site news, by Dr. Cossack on 6 May 2020 at 22:12

What started as a simple web page to hold information about a wannabe Mega Man 5 remake gradually turned into an all-purpose Mega Man fansite, aiming to be a reference in news, playable games on PC and other things. Well, that reference is 20 years old as of today!

The franchise itself had a peak in activity around 2004. While things have slowed down, there have still been interesting releases recently, such as the Sega Genesis Mini being packaged with the long-lost Wily Wars, or the recent multiplatform Zero/ZX Legacy Collection.

While this place isn't my main focus anymore, I still make sure that it remains in good working order for anyone who would like to visit. You might be surprised at how much traffic some pages get even today, especially the maps for the Battle Network series!

With a visual refresh only three days ago, the site is in good standing to remain available as a reference for some years still.

As always, thanks for visiting!

Presenting Dr. Cossack's Lab, v6!
Site news, by Dr. Cossack on 3 May 2020 at 23:54

Many, many long years since the last major website revamp, it's time to move forward by introducing you to the sixth major version of this website!

This isn't a revolution as much as it is a big step forward, done in continuity with what has come before it. This refresh follows newer web standards to a degree, improves on usability and adds some much-needed mobile compatibility. For what is meant to be a reference, having the site scale for a variety of devices is important! A few older design elements remain and will be smoothed out over time.

With this comes a partial rebranding of the website, as I'm putting the Dr. Cossack's Lab name forward. This lines up better with the other components of the Interordi network and is shorter to memorize. If you prefer to call it MMPC still, don't worry: the subtitle Mega Man PC Website remains!

As a bonus, the news are now reposted on our Discord server, in the #news channel, as you might have already seen for our Minecraft community at the Creeper's Lab.

Don't hesitate to let me know if you have any comments on this!

The Sega Genesis Mini comes with the Wily Wars!
Site news, by Dr. Cossack on 16 May 2019 at 10:31

Announced today as part of the games line up for the upcoming Sega Genesis Mini is none other than Mega Man: the Wily Wars! This compilation of remakes of Mega Man 1 to 3 never had a wide-scale release in North America before, making this one of the best options available if you've been meaning to play it. I, for one, certainly didn't see this one coming! The Genesis Mini is scheduled to be released worldwide on 19 September.

Long-time visitors of this site might remember that the Wily Wars has a bonus area, Wily Tower, accessible once you beat the 3 main games. However, earlier emulators were not able to properly handle the game's saving system, making the Wily Tower area unavailable. Eventually, savestates and game patches were developed and are still hosted here, making this content available. Assuming that the emulation of the Genesis Mini is done properly, this is one less issue that people will have to deal with!

Nineteenth anniversary!
Site news, by Dr. Cossack on 7 May 2019 at 23:02

A day late perhaps, but that's only 0.27% of a year, so who cares! The Mega Man PC Website: Dr. Cossack's Lab is now 19 years old, getting somewhat older but still very much alive! Not a lot of changes have been visible on the site this year, but I'm working on something that'll benefit the community once complete. I'll report here whenever that's done!

The series has finally seen a sort of revival, thankfully, with Mega Man 11 being well received by most players and reviewers. Capcom of Japan has started dropping hints that something is on the way for the X series as well. Meanwhile, the X Legacy Collection 1 & 2 have allowed people to go back to enjoy some fun classics in a tight package, and the new cartoon is still going on various channels.

Here's to more releases and content to enjoy!
