We’re back ladies and gentlemen! On a bad-ass server with more room, more bandwidth and more technical support! This move couldn’t have happened at a better time either for it is (as I have mentioned before) our second year anniversary. Outlasting the vast, vast majority of Megaman Teams, the Mechanical Maniacs have survived and prospered.

The first update you should notice is that I added new custom mugshots to replace the old mugs from multiple games. This is to reflect the image I want to maintain for the team. Another cosmetic update is that I have removed the comet cursor from the page. Apparently many people didn’t like it, but were “too nice to tell me”!!! OY! Perhaps next time I ask for feedback, more people will say something.

I have removed the A-holes speak section. Classic Gaming prohibits the massive swearing and racially offensive remarks usually thrown at us by people in the section. I was given the option of merely censoring it, however, it serves little purpose anymore so I removed it. I don’t update the section anymore anyway so I was toying with the idea of removing it before the big move. However, the “Book of Larceny” can still be accessed in the miscellaneous section for it’s the very best out of that entire section. Also added to the miscellaneous section is the polls once found in the left frame.

Another new epilogue has been posted continuing the adventures of the Megaman 3 Team. Who can stop them from littering our planet with their garbage?? Read “Littering is Bad For Our Planet!” by me – Gauntlet!

The Guestbook has returned. I think the insanity has died down by now. At any rate, it’s now being maintained by Geminiman, not I.

Also returned is the roms section featuring pirate and freeware roms. If you don’t get my meaning it has LEGAL NONCOMMERCIAL roms. No licensed Megaman games. Find your illegal stuff elsewhere, you hooligans! The Mechanical Maniacs respects and maintains the integrity of the video game industry and will never aid you all in your evil quest to rip them off! *laughs* You can find pirate games in there though. Kick ass rare pirate games which is what I love about the emulation scene.

The image gallery now includes the Super Transforming Metool animation I made of the 8-bit metool. A 328 frame animation. It’s probably the LAST animation I’m gonna do for a very long time. Also new in the gallery is Neo Geo Pocket single sprites. Rare as can be these sprites can be found no where else! Well, that is until Sprites Inc. finally gets around to fully ripping them.

And now the Game Graphics section has been fully completed. I had originally planned on stretching out the releases for the level maps over a long course of time, however, I decided to stop playing these games and so the section now has the last of the MM3 robot master level maps available for you to download!

I also found a new team to the links section. However, it had already disbanded when I found it. Cossack’s Soldiers. If you know of any Megaman team NOT on my list, whether it be active or disbanded tell me. Updating that list is a fun hobby! I also added the Ultimate Megaman X and Zero Webpage to the links section. They were kind enough to host us, and their site beats all anyway!

Lastly, and most importantly, I have added a new, long-awaited section. The manga scans featuring selected art from the Rockman Megamix mangas! The selection is pretty decent and is sure to grow with time! No, these are not the same images you’ve seen in a dozen other Megaman sites, these images have been scanned by me, Gauntlet, from my own collection. Satisfaction guaranteed!!
