We don’t have either version of Mega Man Star Force 2 yet even though the game has been out for awhile in Japan. Nearly half a year later, Capcom is rolling out free bonus content. First Rockman (i.e the original blue bomber), a special card from the World Hobby Fair, is now available at DS download stations across Japan. Seeing retro Mega Man make a cameo in the most recent Mega Man game is an awesome surprise. Hopefully, Capcom will find a way to run a similar promotion in North America after Mega Man Star Force 2 comes out in June.
There was another unique card wirelessly transferred at the World Hobby Fair, King Granger, a mega battle card that fuses Mega Man with a dinosaur arm and shinobi sword in a grand transformation. The announcement only mentions First Rockman is at DS download stations, but Capcom will probably give gamers in Japan a chance to acquire King Granger through DS download stations in the future.
