New Official Shooting Star Rockman Goods Revealed

Long overdue for some representation, Capcom has unveiled a new line of official Shooting Star Rockman merchandise, available through the latest Cap Kuji lottery.

The grand prize is a wearable Warrock plush that fits over your hand. Measuring just over 13 inches in length, it's ideal for cosplay. Other prizes include a set of B2-sized tapestries, desk mats, acrylic stands, keychains, and tin badges. You can see what each item looks like here.

Lottery tickets are available for purchase at 880 yen (roughly $6.15 USD) each. The odds of winning are divided into prize tiers, with the rarest item—the Warrock plush—having just a 1% chance of being drawn.

Prizes are expected to ship to winners between August and September 2025.

Mega Man Legacy Collection 1 Has Compatibility Issues on Nintendo Switch 2

Following today’s Nintendo Switch 2 Direct, Nintendo has released a comprehensive list of Switch 1 games with compatibility issues on the new console. The list is divided into two categories: games with in-game issues and those with startup problems.

Most Mega Man games from the original Switch library will run without issues on the new system. However, Mega Man Legacy Collection 1 has been flagged for unspecified compatibility problems. While the game will boot, the issues are significant enough to warrant its inclusion on the list.
