Memories of Mega Man

My earliest experience with Mega Man, like many others, was his second entry. To this day it's safely the most beloved in the series, and the only entry of the first six that I own on the NES. As a youth I remember loving every minute up to Dr. Wily's castle (where I didn't like the music, or that stupid dragon), and trying to beat various levels and bosses with a single weapon I'd pick at random. The next exposure I got to the main series wasn't until the Anniversary Collection on the PlayStation 2. Controlling the blue bomber on that system has its quirks, but at the time it was my favorite compilation game and I was ecstatic to finally play other entries in the main series.
Today when I play Mega Man, it's usually as a character in Super Smash Bros on the 3DS. Even when I'm feeling retro, I prefer a couple titles from the X series. Still, I'm ecstatic to see a new title after so many years of respectable quality... especially after that whole Mighty No. 9 thing.
Here's some media fuel to fill your week. Happy robot-blasting.
