Continuing our coverage of 1UP’s Cover Story this week, our suspicions have been confirmed: Retronauts Lunch Break will be taking on Mega Man Legends, “the series’ three-dimensional debut that didn’t receive the critical reception it deserved.” For those unfamiliar, Retronauts Lunch Break (which debuted with the NES Mega Man games) is a video game livestream […]

“Who has not felt how sadly sweet, The dream of home, the dream of home, Steals o’er the heart, too soon to fleet, When far o’er sea or land we roam?” -Thomas Moore, The Dream of Home —————————————- Blues left home because he was afraid that Dr. Light would erase his memories and personality entirely […]

If I might be allowed to break from the third-person for a moment: Wow, that was quick. I knew when I posted about the 1UP Cover Story yesterday that I a few of my own writings would come up, but I didn’t expect them so soon– much less two on the same day. If you […]

As part of our celebration of the Mega Man series hitting its 25th anniversary, we are featuring a look back at many of the games of the Classic series. For this entry, I’ll be looking Mega Man 5, a game that makes up for its lack of innovation with “Nintendo Hard” difficulty. While Mega Man […]

After the Doc Robot stages, we enter a stage titled “Break Man,” where we fight a ~mysterious~ robot who fights exactly like Proto Man, with the exception that he is immune to all special weapons. This one’s similar to the fight in Hard Man’s stage, except we have more room to slide on the upper […]

We play with fire and take the consequences, because the alternative is cowardice in the face of the unknown.” -Ronald Dworkin, Sovereign Virtue “Children are the keys of Paradise… they alone are […]

Each of the revisited stages contains two fights with Doc Robot K-176, who takes on the attack pattern of one of the Robot Masters from Mega Man 2. These aren’t quite the same, as Doc’s sprite is bigger than even Wood Man, and he’s often slightly more difficult in other ways. However, we’ve got a […]
