Fan Game Gives Mega Man 2 Robot Masters Their Day
Should be no surprise that Mega Man fan games continue to garner a lot of admiration and awe. Here is one such fan game. Mega Man: Day in the Limelight 2, brought to you by the same people behind Mushroom Kingdom Fusion, is essentially a rearranged version of the game Mega Man 3. The big […]

We’ve been getting a lot of interesting genre albums of classic Famicom music lately. First that was Zoku Fami Compi with its house style arrangements. Then sound got loud with the Japan release of Powerglove’s Video Game Metal. But recently things have mellowed again, with the release of Tariki Echo’s Fami Reggae. As you would […]

With Rockman 2 coming to the Virtual Console for 3DS in Japan, there’s no reason to suspect we won’t get Mega Man 2 as well. But just in case, here’s a potential alternative. Using the DSiWare application Petit Computer, DiscostewSM has begun crafting a replication of Mega Man 2 from scratch. It’s still an early […]

Wily escapes in his ship, and the map shows a second boss marker underground. Mega Man appears in the middle of falling down a long shaft. Map of the Final Level. The first thing you’ll notice after landing is the lack of music, and the only sound here is the...Fight for Everlasting Friendship in Megapony Fan Game
These days, it seems that you can’t throw a shoe without hitting a My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic fan. Whether that’s a good thing or not is left up to one’s individual taste. Interestingly enough, it almost seems as though the timeline of Pony-mania’s rise mirrors the recent decline of the Mega Man video […]

Pretty much hot off the heels of the original Rockman coming out on Japan’s 3DS eShop last month, Rockman 2 is now joining it on the 8th of this month for ¥500. I’ll admit I was hoping for a 3D Classics with this one, but for arguably the greatest Mega Man title made, I’ll still […]

Teleporter Room map, Boss Music, and Boss Damage Chart. This boss gauntlet sets the tone for (most of) the rest of the series, with rematches taking place in one group at the end instead of scattered throughout the Wily stages. While we get large health refills after each boss, there are none for energy, so […]
