Next Monday, Mega Man 9 will be graced with the last of its currently announced DLC. For those who thought the game was too easy, two new difficulty levels will be made available for 100 Wii points each. Perhaps more enticing is the Special Stage that will go on sale for the same price. This all new stage will not only be “special”, but according to a new interview with the games producer Hironobu Takeshita, the stage will have it’s own boss as well.
Many were hoping this boss would be Mega Man’s long time rival Bass, or maybe his best-friend/worst-enemy Zero, but instead, it’s the fake cop robot who falsely arrested Dr Wright/Light at the beginning of the game. At least, that’s why I’m guessing he’s called Fake Man. Trust me, I’d love this news to be fake. But if not, if Fake Man really is the star of “Special Stage”, not only will a whole lot of Mega Man fans will be passing on this DLC, but we’ll also have one more reason to link the term “special” with the term “retarded”.
Not that there’s anything wrong with being that. Retarded, I mean.
