Tag: Mega Man 4

The third week of “Mega May” is upon us, and it brings the fourth title in the classic Mega Man series on the Game Boy.

As we reported previously, this week’s Nintendo Download update has a new sale featuring none other than Mega Man as one of “Your Favorite Gaming Friends.”

Well, there are no two ways about it: We’ve fallen a bit behind since Johnny took on Mega Man 2, Mega Man 3, and Mega Man: The Wily Wars. As it so happens, he just finished up his month-long Mega Man marathon with the one-two punch of Mega Man 9 and Mega Man 10, so here’s everything he’s done since the last time we posted, in case you weren’t keeping up.

On top of all the news about Nintendo and Capcom bringing Mega Man to Super Smash Bros. today, it’s hard to believe they weren’t finished yet, but… they weren’t finished yet. In North America, Mega Man 2, Mega Man 3, and Mega Man 4 have arrived for the Virtual Console in the Wii U eShop. […]

Cossack Stage 3 and Music This stage… is an autoscroller. I’m going to be honest here; no matter what I say about the design, I’m always going to hate this stage because I can’t stand this mechanic in platformers. It does raise tension for newcomers by adding a time limit, but for experienced players or […]
