Capcom Announces Three New Mega Man 9 Bosses — Again!

Capcom just shot us over an email titled “Mega Man 9 Bosses Unveiled!” announcing that new images and in-game screens of three new Mega Man 9 Bosses had been added to their press site.

So I rush to get them up on the site only to realize that they are the same three bosses IGN revealed two days ago. The same three bosses Capcom blogged about IGN revealing just one day ago. Why is it that I suddenly feel like a third world country?

Oh well, it’s my fault for not staying on top of my IGN RSS feed. Shame on me. Enjoy the two day old news after the jump.

Hi Mega Man fans,

We’re hitting you up to let you know we’ve posted art and screen assets for three of the Mega Man 9 bosses on our press site: www.press.capcom.com. Please visit our site and check out the Blue Bombers new nemesis!
