Megaman 2 for only $2? Man that's a steal! As much as I can just emulate this games...there's nothing like playing a classic game on your 3DS

I wish...

If only they put more GBA Megaman games on the 3DS eshop rather then Wii U eshop... I mean having the NES and GB/GBC games on my 3ds is awesome and all... But I would rather have the Zero series on the 3DS... I mean what they could do is simply just put the Zero collection up on the 3DS eshop..

I would recommend Megaman 2 (NES) as a starting point in the classic series. its not to difficult, but its not going to treat you like a child either.

I'm pretty sure Capcom had to give permission to Nintendo to do the anniversary deals or even have the games on eShop, so it's not like they are completely ignoring the franchise. With that said, it still seems like Nintendo gives Mega Man more attention...

It's nice to know Mega Man's step-daddy still loves him.

I'm glad I have the Megaman Zero Collection, it's one of my most precious game series.

Speaking of future megaman games, it would be nice if Sakurai was able to borrow Megaman from Capcom and work his magic on a new game.
And then people would cry "Megaman bias!" next time around

Mega Man or Mega Man 2

Original is hard as **** but classic none the less. Mega Man 2 improves on many things and is slightly easier. Don't get me wrong when I say it's easier these are some of the most challenging games ever. If you want some new flavor play Megaman and Bass for GBA. Also all the X games are great as well.

I enjoyed the **** out of Azure Striker Gunvolt and I am interested in checking out Mega Man Zero, the title that started it all.

Also somewhat befitting, a friend from college lent me Mega Man Battle Network 4: Blue Moon over my semester break. I should get onto that sometime soon.

Capcom's like a drunk hobo in an alleyway while Nintendo's like that loving rich single man who wears a wool coat down to his knees, wears a homburg hat & lives in a mansion wanting to take in Capcom's beggared children. :4mario: Merry Christmas :4megaman:
