What if a deranged Santa Robot decided we all didn’t deserve gifts this year?
Mega Man would come and bust ‘em up, that’s what!
AceSparks of Sprite Inc. has re-imagined Charles Dicken’s classic, A Christmas Carol into a Mega Man game where the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, Future and Jacob Marley are evil robots that steal presents.
The game plays just like a Mega Man game, in that it is really hard, except that there are no levels, just boss battles. It even comes with a stellar (and festive) chiptunes soundtrack.
Each Boss gives you a new weapon, like a Candy Cane shot, the explosive “Present Suprise” and the spreadshot-like Twinkle Buster.
Check out the bosses below:

This pimped out sleigh focuses on ranged attacks:

In it, you got [...]
Man, Nintendo certainly had a lot of awesome merchandising back in the day. In game-branded food alone there was Nintendo-themed cereal, mac-and-cheese and fruit snacks. Way better than those shitty mint tins they now sell at FYE and Newbury Comics. But here’s a Nintendo product you definitely should not eat: The Legend of Zelda Model Set. Currently [...]
(NOTE: This was a contribution to a feature that ran @NintendoLife about the 25th Anniversary of the NES. You should go read it.) The first video game I ever saw was Kung-Fu for the NES. My older sister’s friend down the street had just gotten the system, so she kindly escorted me down to their [...]
