If you've ever listened to the The Mega Man Network podcast, I believe I've mentioned before I'm one of the rare people who didn't grow up with a NES. So, I don't have memories of playing 8-bit Mega Man at all like my other TMMN cohorts. My love of Mega Man came down...

You Are Dr. Wily!
That's how this advertisement for Rockman 2's boss contest sells itself. This apparently comes from a pretty old issue of Family Computer Magazine. Most of the text just tells the story of Rockman, questions what Dr. Wily's true form really is, promises some huge...

Dr. Wily Stage 1 and its music. Again, now that we're at the Wily stages, things have changed a little. We have all the weapons, and it can be assumed that we have some idea of what we're doing by now, so the stages should be designed with this in mind. Pipi starts...
