Time to get hyped for Hyper Bomb!

In 1994, Mega Man 6 was released in North America, and it featured the only two official Robot Masters to have original designs by North Americans. 20 years later, we catch up with one of those designers to ask about his unique experience.

Time to look at one “cool” weapon within the arsenal from Mega Man 1, the Ice Slasher!

Nintendo has just concluded their Super Smash Bros. Direct video, and as you can probably guess from our posting about it here, there was indeed new information about Mega Man’s part in the game to behold!

This time on Weakness Wisdom, we’ll be looking into both the original and the Powered Up variants of the weaknesses of the first Mega Man game.

Originally I had planned on doing a series of articles discussing, rating and ranting about each batch of weapons we get to play with in the Mega Man Classic series (and maybe X as well). Then Redmage1987 started his own series discussing individual weapons, and it was awesome.

One of the most unique and fun things about the Mega Man series is the Variable Weapons System that lets Mega Man inherit weapons from his defeated opponents. In this series, we’re going to take a look at just how useful each weapon is, how strong it is when compared to the Mega Buster, where it’s best used, and more!

When it comes to the logic of weakness chains, one game that seemed to baffle even the most hardcore Mega Man fans was Mega Man 3. From ninjas being weak to spinning tops to the zodiac destroying needles, the logic behind the weakness chains of the third entry in the series was quite bewildering for many.

“What happens when the robot masters become robot retirees?” asks Esquirebob Animations, and we find out in this animated short as Cut Man has to deal with an overbearing neighbor who just can’t take a hint. Be warned, though, as it contains– as Capcom Unity puts it– some “racy innuendo.” LanceHeartlocalhost/tmmn

Watch as Dr. Wily discovers it in the 16th of the fad’s 15 minutes of fame; suffice to say, everyone else around is over it. Thanks for the tip, GeminiSparkSP! LanceHeartlocalhost/tmmn
