Mega Man heading to PSN and XBL too? - Image 1Someday, Mega Man will be a real life human boy. Until that day comes, however, we can expect him to do our bidding as a robotic pew-pew fighter slave who loves humankind. Isn't that awesome?

Seeing as Mega Man 9 has been announced for WiiWare, we thought our coverage of the pew-pew fighter slave would end there, but we were surprised to find out that Mega Man might be making a leap... a couple of them, in fact, onto the Xbox 360 and PS3 as well.

That's the news that Ars Technica is reporting. Capcom has apparently announced that Mega Man 9 is scheduled for release on WiiWare, XBLA and PSN. The game is apparently listed as a PSN and XBLA release on their E3 roster, while we previously found out in Nintendo Power that the game would be hitting WiiWare.

We're currently trying to find a copy of Capcom's E3 roster or word of Capcom's confirmation that the title will be heading to all three platforms. If the rumor holds true, it should be a pretty exciting day, as this looks to be the first game that'll hit all three online gaming services. Stay tuned!



Update:

Sorry to bear some bad news, but Capcom has clarified Ars Technica's earlier report. Capcom said that Mega Man 9 would be for WiiWare only and that the info indicated in their E3 roster was a mistake on Capcom's part.
