Capcom has announced three of the Blue Bomber’s new enemies in the upcoming, retro-spectacular Mega Man 9 for the PlayStation Network, Xbox Live Arcade, and WiiWare.
The themes of these robotic menaces might sound familiar to anyone who has played past Mega Man games, but I get the feeling that is exactly what Capcom is aiming for.
Here are the official descriptions, followed by screen shots of the bosses in action:
Concrete Man:
Created to construct a dam, Concrete man can actually design a dam and supervise its entire construction. He has stubborn a stubborn personality and will tell off any lazy robots.
Weapon: Concrete Shot – Concrete shot creates a temporary foothold as soon as it touches the ground. It can also be used to stop enemies in their tracks.

Tornado Man:
Works for the Weather Manipulation Office to help control and stop the formation of large storms all over the world.
Weapon: Tornado Blow – Tornado Blow launches a huge tornado that covers the entire game area. Heavy enemies will take damage, but lighter ones will be blown entirely off-screen.

Magma Man:
Magma Man serves as the safety control robot at a large geothermal power plant. He is able to work in incredibly hot environments and loves to visit hot spas.
Weapon: Magma Bazooka – Magma Bazooka shoots a cluster of fireballs that spread out after launching. It can also be charged by holding down the shot button.
