@Tasuki: Hey, nice! I love Elec Man's design, even though it's very simplistic (it has to be the lightning bolt mask he has on). Here's a couple of my favorite tunes from the first game (couldn't decide which one I liked more )
@Kingbuilder: That game looks amazing, too bad I can't get it If only they would release it in disc-form on the Wii, since the WiiWare size limit is preventing its release there.
@MegaStoneSmash91: Yeah Elecmans music really fits his stage too. THe music sounds like a bunch of live electrical wires crackeling to a beat. Cutman and Fireman are a nice choice they are my 2 other favorite themes from MM1.
@Kingbuilder I alos heard that it was suppose to be released in Korea as well. Truthfully I am not a big fan of Asian MMOs cause they usually are item mall games but if this one ever comes stateside I might check it out mainly because its Megaman.

A friend of mine and myself got talking about Mega man games and he mentioned Mega man Power Up on PsP. He told me that that was a remake of MM1 and really was his only way of playing MM1 till he got MM1 on the VC. Anyway, I looked it up and it does look like a good remake the voice over is better than in MM8 IMO and the graphics look nice. Maybe I might pick this one up later along with a PsP. Any of you guys play it and how does it stack up to the original MM1?

The only thing that interests me about this game is that you can be the RM's. I can't answer your question because I've not played it, but it seems like a worthy game. I'm guessing it didn't do well since it's been out for a few years now and I'm sure people would flock to a MM2 Powered Up had the first game done well.

It has all the flaws of the original, now with cutsy graphics and two new levels of questionable quality. Personally, I hated it, and simply moved on to Maverick Hunter X, which actually improved upon the original (sort of, at the very least they kept it fresh without messing it up).
I've never played Powered Up (but I really want to) because I don't have a PSP, and I'm not going to buy one just so I can play the two Mega Man games it has (I can't think of any other games I'd even be interested in). What I've seen of it (quite a lot, actually) is excellent, and there's a lot more than just a remake in the whole package. Sure there's the remake, with 2 new Robot Masters, redesigned levels, and all that jazz, but there's also a challange mode, a level editor, and the option to play "Old Style" mode which comes as close as possible to the original NES game while still using the cutsey graphics (it even uses the original 8-Bit music). I'd play this game in a heartbeat if given the chance, because it looks insanely enjoyable!
(I can't think of any other games I'd even be interested in).
When was the last time you took an honest look at what it had?
Maybe a month or two ago, when I looked at the complete PSP game list on Wikipedia. If I recall, there was very little I was interested in besides the 2 Mega Man games, perhaps I'll take another look soon.

Wait, what does interest you besides Mega Man? Like, in general? I've honestly never noticed you talk about anything else.

By "in general", do you mean a specific genre? In that case, I really couldn't tell you. I guess I've always just liked what I've played, and if I haven't played it I'm usually not interested in it. For instance, I've never played Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts (or any RPGs, really), Earthbound, God of War, Street Fighter, and countless other major series that I can't think of right now. I just have no interest in playing them. I mostly enjoy Nintendo, and that's all I really have the option to play. My brother has a PS3, but I'm not allowed to just play it whenever I want. I do like several of the games he has, such as the Fallout games, Resident Evil 5, Call of Duty (have one on Wii), The Force Unleashed (which I also have on the Wii) and Soul Calibur IV. I know all those are multi-platform games, but I have no interest in ever owning an XBox 360, and if I could get them on the Wii I would. I should probably get my own PS3 some day, but I'm not really thinking about that right now. I have a Wii, an NES, an SNES, an N64, and a Gamecube at my disposal, and that's all I really need.
So yeah, that's my story for the most part . I never had much interest in the PSP, so it kind of just passed me by. Now that I looked at the game list again, most of it seems to be sports games, licensed games, and stuff I've never heard of. It would take some serious effort in analyzing all the games and finding out which ones I liked and didn't like, tracking down copies of them, and all that. I think it was a bad decision to release 2 Mega Man games only on the PSP. Most fans probably didn't ever get a PSP, because they probably played the other games on Nintendo systems and weren't interested in it in the first place. That's what it's like for me, anyway. They should really re-release those games in some form that anyone would have a good chance to play.

...man, you're worse than my brother. No clue what interests you, and little desire to branch out. I love a challenge.
Ultimate Ghouls 'n' Ghosts seems like the perfect game for you. It's like Mega Man, but different. It's got selectable stages and power-ups just like mega man, and just like Mega Man, you run through stages, trying to get to the next level, shooting bad guys and jumping traps. The series has always had more of an arcade feel to it, though: There are items that you can collect to increase your score, you can't take much hits, and your movement is more constrained, meaning not only do you have to learn the stages, but you have to learn to properly place and time your jumps since you don't have much in the way of aerial movement. If you can get a handle on the mechanics, though, it's a lot of fun. The GnG series has been around for a long time, and it shows, as this is easily the most polished, user-friendly, and option-heavy entry in the game. I won't say it's the best entry in the series, since I haven't played them all, but at the very least it's definitely a very good game in its own right.
@Mickeymac: That game does look very interesting, but I'd have to get a PSP first! I do own Ghosts n' Goblins on the NES (which is very hard, but pretty fun as well) so I'm no stranger to the series. Thanks for the recommendation though, I'll look into it when I get the chance.
But anyway, this is a Mega Man thread, so let us continue with that shall we? For a slight change of pace, here's some of my favorite fortress themes (as opposed to Robot Master themes):
Ok guys heres something fun. Megaman is known to have several types of robot masters like a bunch of Fire based Robot master and bunch of Ice based robots a bunch of water based etc. So whos your favorite.....
1) Fire Based Robot? 2) Electric based Robot? 3) Ice Based Robot? 4) Water Based Robot? 5) Time Based Robot?
Mine would have to be the following.
1) Heatman. I love the Zippo lighter look they gave him. Personally I am kinda surprise that this made it past Nintendo censors at the time.
2) Sparkman. Again another one that I like his design. It usually takes alot of people a while to figure out hes based off of a spark plug. His fight is pretty decent too and can be tricky with the layout and his hoping around.
3) Coldman. I think I like him the best out of the Ice RMs cause of his attack. The ice wall or whatever its called I cant remember at this time is pretty unique. His look is kinda interesting too that of a freezer.
4) Splashwoman. What can I say shes the very first woman RM. Its was about time that they made another female robot other than Roll in the series lol.
5) Flashman. I have to go with the original here. His stage is one of my favorites although I dont know how ice goes with time stopping maybe its cause he "freezes" time. He isnt a pain like Brightman and being able to stop time isnt outta place like Centaur man. Plus his level's themes is one of the best.
