The OST was released in Japan two days ago.
Damn I love Capcom.Thanks for the link Ric.
I think it’s my favourite classic Megaman soundtrack since Megaman 2.
My favorite Robot Masters themes are: Tropic Thunder, Magma Burning and Jewel Temptation
Wait for the best quality rip to come out soon!

Looks like it’s 320kbit now… why oh why did capcom decide to be so cheap with this rockman 🙁
The arranged soundtrack will be coming out next month… looking forward to that more.
You don’t get it. But that’s okay.
Sure I do. People wanted the classic feel back. So Capcom got cheap and totally went retro classic. Dumb move if you ask me. I want HQ graphics and awesome music, not this 8 bit looking shit.
Megaman Powered Up was a perfect example of what you should do with the franchise… ah Capcom…hopefully you’ll be smart and do a remixed version for us.
8-bit graphics looks awesome to every hardcore and loyal gamer.
Also, this OST is awesome and arranged OST is coming next week if you don’t like 8bit.
And I’m sorry to say that’s why you don’t get it. But that’s okay, we know you’ll buy it anyway.
Kiddie looks and mediocre toy-music like remixes? No thanks.
Kiddie looks…then what do you think the NES version is? The music is really a personal choice. I liked it and hope if they do a Megaman 2 Powered Up it follows the same path.
Fan service to who? I’d seriously like to know who these FANS are? Nobody ever asked me if I wanted an 8 bit version of Rockman.
You really have no idea how pleasing it is for people like me, who prefer Oldskool games, to see Capcom doing the first step again and returning to it. You don’t want to play the game because you’re a graphic whore who thinks games with bad graphics suck? Noone is asking you to download the freaking game, and noone is asking you to play it. Noone is asking you to download the music, either.
Shut up and get out of here, asshole.
As for being ontopic:
Thanks for sharing the link. I can’t wait for the complete OST and the remastered one.
If this is really your attitude, you definitely aren’t their target demographic – for fanservice or for sales.
So basically, it’s okay to say anything good about a series, but it’s never okay to say anything bad? Holy fanboyism.
You don’t want to play the game because you’re a graphic whore who thinks games with bad graphics suck?
And what’s wrong with liking good graphics? The answer is nothing. This "graphics whore" argument usually assumes that the only thing a gamer cares about is good graphics; however, who would want to play an unplayable game just because it has good graphics? The answer is no one. It’s possible for someone to want "oldskool" gameplay AND excellent graphics (and music).
Shut up and get out of here, asshole.
And now you’re just insulting him because he said something you didn’t like. Are you taking offense for negative comments against a video game that you had no part in developing? God, fanboys truly make me sick.
(An odd first post for someone new to these forums, but I just felt I had to point that out.)
To specifically mention the OST, though, I think the idea that intentionally going 8-bit is ‘cheap’ is a bit too simplistic. This has been debated over and over since Mega Man 9’s announcement but Capcom simply decided to go 8-bit as an artistic choice, not due to monetary or technical limitations. If that’s not the style you personally prefer, that’s fine, but it doesn’t necessarily make the music cheap or bad.

If you’re talking about composition, I think it’s done fairy well. As far as it sounds… well 8 bit is cheap. It was great back in the 80’s when it was accepted. But seriously, do I want to hear that now? Anyway because this game has Rockman 9 slapped on it will sell regardless. I’m just not happy with Capcom’s decision behind it.
To further my argument, take a look at Bionic Commando Rearmed. That’s a perfect example of an 8 Bit game redone for this age properly. It’s not that hard and you get a lot more people on board who’re happy with what they’ve done.
BTW in all my ranting I forgot to thank the poster for the link to the soundtrack. I look forward to hearing the arranged version next month.
No I’ll just download the WAD file off of the newsgroups so I don’t waste my money.

Thanks Hitler, last time I checked I could voice my opinion.
Her, please. I’m still a girl last time I checked. *grabs boobies* Yes, I still am.
@Lawrence:
No, I don’t have anything against critisizing Capcom’s decision. Holy Hateboyism.
However, a few things:
1.) Before verbally screwing over a game, fucking play it. It could be good. That’s the way I found out that Megaman Battle Network was actually not a bad series. You can’t judge a game on what you saw on two screenshots and a trailer video.
2.) Unfortunately, I have seen too much people going "Bah, that game is bad, it has bad graphics!", people like these denying the quality of e.g. System Shock 2. And people playing utterly shitty games with good graphics like UT3 and saying they’re masterpieces. It pisses me off to no end if people are like "Ew, pixels!". I too enjoy good graphics, however, only if they’re attached to a good game.
3.) I am, if a fan, then a fucking fangirl.
4.) That guy didn’t do anything else than fucking rant about how Capcom decided to make that game 8-Bit. Each of his 5 posts in this thread were only like "Capcom is so cheap, and they make Megaman worse, and it’s like totally crap even though I’ve never played the game and don’t even know shit about it because it’s not released yet!". I like Megaman and Capcom and I think it’s freaking brave to release an 8-Bit Game in this generation of games and gamers. But it fits absolutely to Capcom. And that’s why I’m defending that game.
God, hateboys truly make me sick.
@karyuudo:
Don’t you dare to call me Hitler.
Well let’s see, I’ve played all of the Rockman series, so I guess I DO qualify as a fan. I just don’t agree with Capcom’s decision. It was same when they released each of the Rockman’s on PS1 again and only certain stages had remixed music. Like what is that? An incomplete game if you ask me. Why not try and use the PS1’s capabilities to make better graphics. You know why? Cuz it’s an easy and cheap way to sell games. Because they know people are dumb enough to buy them.
Don’t you dare to call me Hitler.
Okay Mrs. Hitler.
I really wish people would stop saying Capcom was "cheap," as they don’t understand what they’re talking about.
Where did he say you’re not a fan? What he said is that you’re not in their target demographic which is plainly obvious by your hijacking of this thread for the purposes of bitching.
I think the creators of MM9 have justified making this game perfectly well: It’s cost-effective because of the advent of widespread digital distribution of content (hence easier to sell the idea to the Capcom execs who would otherwise not greenlight a more expensive but modern interpretation of the classic Megaman experience), both the designers and the target audience (a significantly large one, in fact) love and appreciate the retro feel of the NES Megaman, and furthermore, it’s been made clear in interviews by both Inafune and the art designers for this game that they consider the 8-bit aesthetic a legitimate art style, and why not? 8-bit graphics and sound produce a certain feel that modern technology just can’t replicate.
"Old" does not necessarily equal "inexpensive," especially when it comes to discontinued hardware, software, lost methods, et cetera.
"I wouldn’t mind making a sequel for any of the Mega Man series, not only the classic one. But because the original Mega Man series started around the same time I entered Capcom, any desire to make a sequel for that series is particularly strong.
Unfortunatle the simple fun of a classic Mega Man game doesn’t fit into the grandiose and expansive world that the consumer gaming industry has become, and so you have to make games that match the current expectations. If you did push to have a game like the classic Mega Man games made, it would be critisized for things like being too simplistic, outdated, or too expensive. I thought it would be too difficult to bring out another classic Mega Man in the current gaming climate.
And then Nintendo came out with WiiWare for distributing downloadable content, and I felt I had an opportunity to finally realize the dreams I had been keeping on the back burner for so long.
I think WiiWare offers a great combination of simple games at a low price. And as fate would have it, the Virtual Console is causing people to reevaluate the classic games for the NES and such, and to see what made them good.
Our intent was to make a simple and enjoyable Mega Man sequel so we said,"Let’s make a new NES game!" and from there the ball got rolling."
So it was and is a matter of monetary and artistic factors that have MM9 being what it is, and as a huge fan of the classic series, I’m grateful for this choice. MM7 was graphically appealing but too sluggish on the control. MM8 was graphically nice as well, cutscenes and all, but they tried to cram too much into it. Out of the 8 classic games, I like 7 and 8 the least.
Music-wise, I love chiptune and this OST, even though it’s ripped from the 5 YTV’s, still rocks all the 8-bit balls. Can’t wait for the actually OST to surface.
New Mp3s!!!
This has Wily stage themes ending and more.

That’s epic! Thank you for the link!
Don’t get me wrong! I’m not questioning your fandom. It’s just that the vast majority of fans are going wild for this, want this, and have desired this for years. Capcom delivering doesn’t make this cheap or a cop-out in any way. It just means they’re giving [the majority of] fans what they want.
http://www.the-nextlevel.com/preview/wii/mega-man-9
It is cheap. Going back to do a Megaman like this is just an easy way to save money.
I sure hope so, that would at least fix 1/2 the problems. They should also release a patch do a graphics upgrade to save my eyes.

I agree 7 and 8 were not the best of the series. But it’s not like it was impossible to go back and fix this with 9… however this is not how you fix a problem.
"Old" does not necessarily equal "inexpensive," especially when it comes to discontinued hardware, software, lost methods, et cetera.
If this is the case, then they were really wasting their time.
Look, if you don’t like the direction taken with "Mega Man 9" then that’s fine…. Obviously you’re either too young, or naive to appreciate what Inafune and Co. are trying to do here.
The rest of us "long time" Mega Man fans are trying to enjoy this milestone, and morons like you are ruining it.

Buddy I grew up with the series. I’m 30 years old and I’m allowed to rant and make my opinion known. I don’t know how I’m ruining it for you, since you took the time to click and enter this thread simply to reply to me. LOL.
"Boohoo"
I for one am pretty psyched about this event, and neither I or any of the other people on this thread asked to hear your ignorant bitching.
Actually, I’ve been tuning every few hours or so just to see if anyone has posted the soundtrack yet… so don’t flatter yourself, Chum.
30?? Really?? …. Wow, so why don’t you try sounding like it?
Ciao.
No, how is it? Other than being 8 bit?
Nah, but the videos i’ve seen of it looked pretty tight.
I wish Inafune would go back and dish out 8-bit remakes of "7", and "8".
Anyways why the hell is this thread talking about the Megaman GAMES more than the MM9 OST? Seriously? Is it that hard to make a thread somewhere else?
It’s not a ROM, it’s a game written for PC.

Yea… You mean that PC game you just linked to?
Word of advice. Know something before you speak.

Also, I am saddened by the lack of actual rip 🙁

Cheers!
But i’m very happy to see they went back to the old style for part 9.
Honestly i’m a much bigger fan of the X series. I’m praying Capcom takes that series back to 2D….X8 was nice, but it wasnt good enough.
All of you hateboys should be thankful Megaman 9 isnt 3D.
You know Capcom has an obsession with turning good games into 3D.

He was defending from a complete asshole, who was insulting a game, in every way, in its own thread. he trolled, and this guy responded. if you are going to bitch at him for getting angry at someone who continuously was bitching about how bad he thinks a game is, in its soundtrack topic, than bitch at the guy who caused it, not the reaction. How would you like it, if I insulted your, I’m guessing, precious shit for game, Halo? with its shit for genericness, and unfun everything. If fanboys make you sick, you must vomit while looking in a mirror, I’m sorry that your father BEAT you when last year, when you where 7, but I can’t help you. To sum it all up, Don’t troll in a topic, and don’t insult people defending a game, especially if you can’t think farther than your toes stretch from your foot. Okay?
On topic: I can’t wait for the full ripped version ^_^
a question, i can’t find musics 22 & 23, i dled the "rockman9ost-wilystages.zip (http://lol.rockmanpm.com/rockman9ost-wilystages.zip)" but 22 & 23 aren’t inside, i would know if it’s normal or if i missed the both tracks.
thank you once again & keep up the good share

Mirror since the site is getting hammered.
For those that don’t know, the soundtrack and up and in HIGH QUALITY!!!! Click the link and ALL the songs should be there.
P.S. The Dr.Wily tracks kicks MMII ass! And "Strange World" Is my fave.

Sonicandtails dropped the link above since the site is not working. Use that for the soundtrack. Personally, I love the music in this game. It also helps that I have an affinity towards 8-bit styled music. The game is a total win IMO.
