Mega Man returns to his roots in this deliberately retro side-scrolling platformer that simulates the style and simplicity of the first six Mega Man games.
I haven't purchased either of the difficulty levels yet, but I did get the Fake Man Special stage, and it awesome. They didn't hold back, they made another classic robot master stage with this one, and it is ultra hard, and ultra fun. Capcom could do this for years, and I'd still hand over the cash.
here is what else got released source: wiiware world
We’re proud to announce that the second of Downloadable Content packs for Mega Man 9 will be available this week. Here’s the run down on what’s coming out.
Hard Mode – Dubbed Hero Mode in Japan, this mode enables you to play the entire game on an increased difficulty level with alternate enemy distribution and spawning points. Hard Mode is not compatible with Rankings or Challenges Modes. Cost: 100 Wii points.
Expert Mode – Dubbed Super Hero Mode Japan, this mode represents the apex of Mega Man 9 difficulty settings and is not for the novice Mega Man 9 player. This mode triples the level of difficulty from the default Mega Man 9 game. Expert Mode is not compatible with Rankings or Challenges Modes. Cost: 100 Wii points.
Special Time Attack Stage – This DLC gives you an additional stage for Time Attack Mode, complete with an all new level and Robot Master Boss, “Fake Man.” Similar in difficulty to the Willy Stages, players will have a fun time tackling this time sensitive competitive stage. Special Time Attack Stage is not compatible with Challenge Mode. Cost: 100 Wii points.
All three DLC packs are available now on WiiWare Channel today (October 20th, 2008) with XBLA following on October 21th, and PSN releasing October 23th.
The Special Stage is pretty interesting. I don't get the point of the Fake Man if you can't get his weapon energy (there's still that one open slot on the Weapons Menu).

Well you know, I was running around through the internet when I came upon on article that the producer for MM9 or some one working close to Capcom said that MM9 still had one extra secret that no one has yet to see.
I've downloaded Proto Man and the Special Stage. I've been trying to beat the game with Proto Man and I'm getting close. I haven't played the Special Stage yet though. I should go do that. I wonder if they'll offer more downloadable content in the future.
