Capcom’s ‘Mega Man’ Classics Have Been Released In Cartridge

Back in the day, buying games in physical format was pretty much the only way you could get games. These days digital purchases are becoming more popular as it means you don’t need to make a trip to the shop, you can play on the same day of its release, and it takes up considerably less physical space.

However there are some who might prefer the physical format, maybe for nostalgia or collection purposes. If that’s you, then you might be interested to learn that together with iam8bit, Capcom has released a couple of Mega Man classics in cartridge format, which will be available as either Mega Man 2 or Mega Man X.

Now there will be two different versions of each game, a “regular” version and a glow-in-the-dark version. They will also be extremely limited where each title will only have 8,500 copies available, which will comprise of 7,500 units of the regular version, and 1,000 units of the glow-in-the-dark version.

Iam8bit notes that the colorways have been packaged and sealed at random, meaning that you can’t choose which one you get and it will be totally random. Note that the cartridges are actually playable assuming you have a compatible system, although we imagine that these are more for collecting rather than playing. The Mega Man 2 and Mega Man X cartridges are priced at $100 each.
