The news desk took the week off (of the paying gig) to get ready for next week, but there's still Mega items of note this week.

Things we missed last week: The R-Type-like Rezon in the Archives.

Next week got five massive bombs lobbed into a busy week that already includes games from two console manufacturers at once (Microsoft and Nintendo), but this week still has some items of note. The big one is the Mega Man Battle Network: Legacy Collection, which I still don't understand the split of for the separate releases but look forward to paying for the combo pack anyway. Also coming to stores is RPG/detective adventure hybrid Process of Elimination from NIS America, and a major indie title (big enough to warrant Direct space, at least) is Tron: Identity from Bithell Games.

Fans of the old-school will have a good week with scrolling shooter Castle of Shikigami 2 and action platformer Cannon Dancer, while horror fans should watch out for a duel of the public domain with Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened crossing over Holmes and Cthulhu. There's also Indie World veteran Wildfrost from Chucklefish (Stardew Valley, Eastward) and... a Hello Kitty rhythm game.
