This year marks Rockman EXE's 15th anniversary and to celebrate, Capcom are partnering with Asakusa Hanayashiki theme park for a special event. Attendees can get in on a EXE-themed stamp rally, scoop up some exclusive merchandise, and snap some photos with all-new tribute art from Ryo Takamisaki and Miho Asada.
The event will be split up in two parts: the first half taking place between February 6th to February 29th and the second on March 1st to March 21st. The first part's theme is "stop Dr. Wily's ambitions"; part two is "defeat Forte!" These relate to the stamp rally, it seems.
Above is but a small sample of what's on sale during the celebration. It's nothing to write home about, but it's certainly neat to see EXE get so much attention after so long. See the rest at the link below!

So they went 8-bit for this series too, huh?
ReplyDeleteAlso, is that the Classic Mega Man riding one of those pandas?
They just can't not 8-bit when it comes to Mega Man.
DeleteI don't want to be so positive about it, but im "just" happy they dont forget totaly the Rockman EXE serie xD ...
ReplyDeleteCan't wait some fangames like MMBN Chrono X or MMBN3D! :D
Sounds great, It's nice to see EXE still getting love, Unfortunately this also just makes me Think Capcom will completely Ignore Star Force and ZX turning 10 this year, shame.
ReplyDeleteEh, if it's EXE's 15th this year wouldn't that mean Shooting Star and ZX's anniversaries are next year?
DeleteNah, Shooting Star/Star Force and ZX both released in 2006 in Japan, so they're anniversaries are actually this year.
DeleteHmm. This explains the Duema card.
ReplyDeletesounds like capcom wanna give us a surprise this year
ReplyDeleteWe can still dream, i hope too..... 6 years without anything really new... (and SFxmm is basically a fangame so...)
