@MasterTonberryV1 Nintendo already has Sonic in their SSB roster since Sega is a third-party company and they paid them a decent sum. They can probably get Mega Man in their roster as well if they pay Capcom enough.
this track's 2 sick to be only 33 secs.. you should make it like, at least 10 mins.....hell, i wont get tired of listening to it. and to the 2 a-holes that disliked it......die.
They have Megaman 2 for iTouches and iPhones if anyone wants to download it. They improved the graphics, but they did change some things, like the glitches and the boss music(for that they shortened the music intro). I think a few enemies are slightly slowed down a little, too. They really changed Wood Man-they slightly slowed down his attacks, and his 4-leaf shot doesn't spin do it's harder to dodge. They also put in easy, normal, and hard mode for difficulties.
Hmmm, if I could be one of the robot masters from Mega Man 2. I would pick Metal Man. How awesome is that you can jump super high and chuck saw blades like super quick then jump away. Even though hes usually the first one to get picked, still awesome power. heh I know...random.
@TyrannosaurusPerez All bosses have the same music, but when you fight the Robot Masters, the beginning of the music is interrupted by the sound of their life meter filling up.
The subtitle in the JP version is Dr. Wily's Secret. It was refering to the part when "Wily" morphs in the alien. It must of suprised people when the game first came out back in '89.
I don't know why everyone made a big deal out of that one comment of mine just because I compared the music to something else. Whatever, it's gone now.
Like at :18-:20, doesn't it sound like Zelda II: Link's Adventure? I downloaded that game and played it and SilvaGunner even has a Zelda II soundtrack.
MM 4 and 9 also have really good boss music, it's funny how the MM 2 boss music has the adventures of link twangs in it (like you can hear at the end of the song)
I meant II, like there's a similarity between the numbers or how it's the second game in the series. I just thought it was kind of a funny coincidence. Thanks for sticking up for me by the way MasterBelmont. I hate when people do that to my comments when there's nothing wrong with it... Maybe people just hate Zelda II and don't want me talking about, or that it's off topic or something.
This is a classic track but it leads me to mention the one soundtrack flaw in Mega Man 2 - the fact that this music is the ONLY boss music (even for the final boss)
They should have changed it up at least for the wiley stages and composed different boss music.
yeah but nin10do should have put better effort in getting the megaman franchise in smash. MM are the coolest video games ever put out by nin10, plus u cant deny MM would kick some serious ASS if he were in smash. Everyone who plays smash always wonders..."wheres Megaman?"
Didn't stop them from getting in Sonic and Snake... and even Diddy Kong (A part of Rare, which is now owned by Microsoft). I don't think Megaman is out of the question.
We can convince MGS fanboys that Snake Man is the lost brother of Solid Snake so that's more than a million fanboys in our pocket!I'm a Mega Man fan too, by the way.
It wouldn't be hard to come up with moves for Megaman. I mean... after 6 classics on the NES plus Megaman 9, there's tons to work with.
B would be the Mega Buster, B+Up would probably be the Rush Jet... his grab and throw would probably be modeled after the Guts Arm... The possibilities are endless!
Memories of this particular game are sweet, aren't they?
I remember having huge problems with Crash Man, and I once had to face him with 0 extra lives and 0 Es. Of course I failed miserably. XD
I also remember how excited I felt when I first discovered the Metal Blades on Wood Man's stage, and had no idea where the heck they came from; I just thought of it as a cool, mysterious new weapon from nowhere. :D
You can actually kinda revive those old feelings a little by playing on Difficult mode.
For Metal Man and Air Man, use the arm cannon blaster.
Air on Crash, Metal on Flash, Metal on Bubble, Bubble on Heat, Heat on Wood...
Finally Quick Man, he's kind of a ... man use Crash Bombs and you're good!

MattseAtze 11 months ago
Crash Man: Based on Ice Man's CPU, he reports to his commanders, Drill and Blast. He doesn't realize his commanders are his left and right hands.
Flash Man: An overconfident showoff who enjoys photography. Overconfidence comes from being a perfected version of Time Man
Heat Man: A cowardly, shy robot who hides under his top... until he catches fire. Then he is a bloodthirsty, mindless pyromaniac.
Wood Man: An eco-terrorist who wages war on mankind on command from Mother Nature, AKA Dr. Wily.
nickthecropper 11 months ago 8
Metal Man: Deadly doctor with a different definition of "vivisection".
Air Man: Good singer. Tends to blow away challengers with his songs.
Bubble Man: Unpopular, lonely robot who creates bubble people as imaginary friends. Has inferiority complex.
Quick Man: Fast robot who got his CPU accelerated to make quick decisions. Unfortunately, he still needs to learn to enunciate.

My moveset for Megaman is:
B: Mega Buster that can charge and you can run and jump while charging.
Left and Right B: Slide. It can only be used on the ground, but trips people easy.
Up B: Teleport (The line thing that Megaman does when he beats a stage).
Down B: Megaball from Megaman 8. You can still do the trick except you can only get one extra bounce.

A: Kick
I'm too lazy to come up with more....

B would be Mega Buster, can be charged
Side + B would be the slide
Up + B would be him doing his Rock Uppercut
Down + B would be weapon change between three weapons
Final Smash is the Super Adapter in which he unleashes pain.
