Rockman X4 Mobile: Zero Version Released, Rockman Solitaire Announced

We've got a double dose of mobile phone news tonight, courtesy of Rockman Corner contributor Amunshen (via CapKobun). First up, customers of Docomo and AU cellphone services in Japan can complete their mobile Rockman X4 experience today with the release of Zero Version. Have some screenies:


Following in the footsteps of its predecessor, X Version, the game boasts high quality graphics and sound and the addition of a brand-new online ranking mode. If you happen to be in Japan, you can download the game for a mere 450 Yen (520 Yen for AU subscribers).

Secondly, we've also caught word that Capcom plans to release a Rockman-themed Solitaire game in the near future. The game will use classic 8-bit sprites in lieu of those lovely revamped Rockman Rockman Puzzle Battle graphics. UPDATE: First screenshot, logo available at the Mega Man Network.

Can't say I'm surprised to see another puzzle-based Rockman game coming down the pike. These things seem awfully easy to produce, so one can only wonder what will come next. Rockman Backgammon? Rockman Go Fish? Crossword Puzzle Battle? Yeah; I like the sound of that last one.

Thanks for the tip, Amunshen!

    So this is the true X4? Not some watered down port? That's good at least.

    Not watered down in the slightest. Field of view has been reduced slightly; but other than that, there's been no complaints.

    Rockman Mobile Bundle. Coming to Android and...I guess iOS!

    C'mon, Capcom. It'd sell.

    "What's the bet the X version will be released soon to milk more money? "

    That's what they said about the Zero version when the X version was announced about a month ago.

    Rockman Puzzle Battle reminds me of Rockman Scramble Battle.

    Even though it was crapware, I'm still interested to know what it was...

    We never got that crossover fighting game.

    Going by the name, it probably WAS that crossover fighting game. :P
