Capcom today announced that Mega Man 10 is coming to WiiWare, Xbox LIVE, and PlayStation Store in March 2010. Mega Man 10, the latest entry in the long-running series, blasts gamers in the face with a nostalgia gun, inducing memories of simpler, 2D times with its retro-inspired gameplay and graphics (seen here).

Synopsis: The year is 20XX and a suspicious outbreak of Roboenza, a Robot Flu, has broken out. It spreads through the world like wildfire bringing down robots everywhere. Infected robots have rampaged out of control, destroying the city and holding it hostage! It’s up to Mega Man to get to the bottom of this viral mystery.

Through-out the game Mega Man will come face-to-face with these infected robots in classic-style boss battles; a staple in the Mega Man series. Keiji Inafune, creator of Mega Man, is in charge of directing and supervising those boss character designs.

New additions to Mega Man 10 include the option to play as Proto Man from the start, as well as an all new “Easy Mode” for those who aren't accustomed to Mega Man's difficulty level. Additionally, “Mega Man Challenges” mode will allow players to practice their skills before taking on the single-player campaign.
