With little fanfare, Inti has released Rockman ZX Soundsketch: ZX Gigamix, a compilation of music from the ZX games as well as drama tracks similar to those found on the Rockman Zero Complete Works albums. The official webpage has some samples of a few of the tracks, so take a listen! ZX Gigamix retails for 3,000 yen.

Just who exactly is this new Character with the Blue Hair and Red Visualizer? And what does the term "Noise" mean? What role will this take with the Plot of the Game?

According to the Boss Character Contest announced for CoroCoro's May Issue and being held up to the end of May. The Theme will be Space, instead of Constellations for the new Boss Character Contest with a Maximum of 3 Bosses from the Contest to be in the game.

Certainly sets a tone for the way the Teaser Wallpaper could be as if something were coming to this World.

English-speaking MegaMan fans have put up with lots of cuts in their day. From the poorly-supported Advance Chip system to the complete lack of e+ modifications, Capcom U.S.A. has been, if nothing else, consistent in their cuts of extra peripheral material.

However, this trend has reached an end.

After a personal conversation with Jason Allen, Capcom U.S.A.'s PR Specialist, I am able to confirm that English Wave Command Cards will be produced.

"There will be cards available, and we'll have more details about how those cards will be distributed at a later date." Allen told me this morning. Hopefully this will set a trend for future MegaMan games, and perhaps we'll even see English Star Carriers!

This Book has said to list 279 Total Cards. I really wasn't expecting the DefaultTribeKing to be included with this book at all. Thought it would have been an Event Exclusive. I also hope it lists any Cards that haven't been released yet.


This is certainly a first. I don't think I've ever seen any previous Ultimate Navigation Guide releasing this quickly. I'm curious to see what this one will have. Last year for Ultimate Navigation Legend we had an interview based on some Ryuusei 2 Questions. Then again, it's so soon. I doubt we'd get any treatment like that.

It must seem like an eternity since something Mega Man related was announced by Capcom of America, but in a surprise move for Capcom's Digital Day, Mega Man Star Force 2 has been announced for release in North America!!

The usual name changes that come with English localization have occurred. Berserker X Shinobi will be known as Zerker X Ninja, while Berserker X Dinosaur will be known as Zerker X Saurian. Hey, Capcom, why did the "Ber" have to go?

There seems to be conflicting release dates for the game in North America based on what Capcom has released to the press. On their Press Release, they state the game is slotted for an autumn 2008 release, but on their Fact Sheet, they clearly state a June 2008 release. I'll try getting to the bottom of this as soon as possible.

And for art lovers, I'll be getting the image assets up sometime today for you guys. In any case, rejoice! Star Force 2 is coming to North America!!

UPDATE: GameSpot has put up a Hands-On Review for the game. The overall impression?

"Our time with Mega Man Star Force 2 was brief, but we definitely came away with the impression that Capcom is focused on creating an experience that's very similar to the first game, while at the same time trying to add enough new content to warrant a $30 purchase. We'll know this June whether or not the game delivers just that."

To all my fellow UnderSquare members and Rockman fans,

It is with great regret and sadness that I must announce that as of May 23rd, 2008, I will no longer be your leader here at the UnderSquare.

Life has caught up to me, and I no longer have the free time to run this magnificent site to the fullest. Between classes, my impending graduation next year, and my arrival into the world of graduate school (or the research world), I won't be around the internet as often as years passed. But I guess this is what comes with growing up.

It is sad for me to think about leaving the site I worked so hard on to make into one of the best Rockman sites on the web. I spent countless hours pouring my sweat into making sure the site was running smoothly, no matter what people thought I was doing. I only wish for the site to continue to grow, and I feel by me being here, I am only inhibiting the potential growth of the site. I will be helping them settle in for a few days, and then they will take over full-time duties of the site on May 23rd.

I'd like to take this time to also announce the new leaders of the UnderSquare: Drk-X and SilentJi. Drk helped create TUS with me, and I felt there was no other person more qualified than him to take up one of these positions. SilentJi has been around TUS since its inception, is well liked in the community, and has been a great friend to me for many years. With these two in charge, I have feel confident that the UnderSquare will continue to grow and serve the many Rockman fans of the world.

I'd like to thank you all for putting up with me for all this time. I know we have had our ups and downs, times of joy and times of dispute, but in the end, I really did care for all of you and had each and every one of your best interests in hand whenever I made a decision. I will enjoy these last few days I have as your leader to the fullest, but do not worry. I won't be leaving the Rockman community for good. I'll become a normal member among you, just enjoying the fun whenever I can find the time to.

I hope to see the UnderSquare grow as long as Capcom keeps pumping out Rockman games.

Farewell to you all,

H0tSh0tZ1627
Your "Fearless Leader"

It has recently come to light that some users have been experiencing difficulty accessing our forums from the main pages, often resulting in a time warp, like Kyithios. We're currently working on the issue now, but for the time being, the easiest remedy to this would be to make sure that you and your friends have the proper URL bookmarked.



We apologize for the inconvenience and will have it fixed soon enough.

At last, some long-needed corrections and updates have been merged into the main part of The UnderSquare to bring the site to completion.

Foremost, an error that was plaguing the Rockman EXE 6 Visual Guide has been resolved, and the obnoxious message about a fle being missing will no longer appear. Similarly, links both within that visual guide, as well as the Shooting Star Rockman one now point back to this domain, and the new forum address in replacement of the old domain.

Next up, two new pages were added--the Contact Us page, as well as the ever-so-useful Site Map! Why not check both of them out?

Third, the news format got an update that should make things much easier to use. To the right of each news title on the main page, a + button is available. Click that to expand and read the full news article. While that is expanded, the button becomes - and can be used to contract the article.

We hope you find this update useful, and as always if there's an error somewhere, let us know!

The Help system that used to be so seldom used has been heavily modified and updated. Our policies on various things, as well as the forum rules, also got introduced into the system. To access the Help system, you can click Help at the top-right corner of the screen, or simply follow this link.

When you get there, you'll notice a total of 13 topics. Most of them should seem familiar, and will likely not need explanation. If you're unfamiliar with any aspect of the forum that even seems like it'd be covered by one of the categories, we suggest you take a look at the appropriate topic and see if it helps at all.

With this update and move of these things, the forum rules have recieved an update. To help facilitate access to these, and explain which ones are needed to be viewed if you're simply looking for an update to the rules, the boardwide announcement has also been changed to reflect the new locations.

To access that, check the Announcements at the top of each forum, or simply click here. If you know anything you feel the Help system needs to address that it does not currently, please let us know!

The long-forgotten multimedia gallery has been restored, and upgraded in the process. You can now use the Gallery section to upload pictures that you create, into whichever category is appropriate!

As usual, if you find some work of yours or another's that should not be there, let us know of it. ...And bugs, we hate bugs, and need to smash them down if there are any.

Also, the shoutbox is permanently enabled again, though you will not be able to use it on the Search or Profile pages, as a manner of speeding things up. If you prefer to use the full shoutbox interface, you can do so here.

We hope you enjoy the restored functionality~

Sorry it came to this, but Bluehost's CPU policies are really bizarre and it seems the shoutbox was killing it, for whatever reason. Can't see why, since no script runs longer than half a second and the restriction is at 30 seconds...

Ahem, anyways, I do apologise for any inconveneinces this can cause. In the meantime, rules in The Dump will be less enforced, so if you want to run a public topic of some form in there, you are more than welcome to do so.

Again, I apologise, and I'm pestering Bluehost to get this figured out. If all goes well, it should be back up soon.

Thanks for your understanding.

EDIT: The Shoutbox is back online and should be here to stay!
