Item Description

For four Game Boy games, Mega Man fought hand-me-down Robot Masters borrowed from his NES adventures. Mega Man V changed that. The Blue Bomber's fifth and final original Game Boy outing pits him against the Stardroids, a band of robots from outer space named after the planets of the solar system, and every one of its main bosses was created for this cartridge.

Mercury, Venus, Mars, Neptune, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Pluto each guard their own themed stage, with the Stardroids' leader Terra waiting beyond them, and the weapons you take from them are wonderfully strange, from Mercury's Grab Buster, which steals energy from enemies, to Saturn's Black Hole, which drags nearby foes into oblivion. Mega Man's own arsenal gets a shake-up too. The Mega Arm replaces the familiar charged buster shot by launching his fist across the screen before it flies back to him, and Tango, a robotic cat who makes his debut here, joins Rush as a helper.

Developed by Minakuchi Engineering and published by Capcom in 1994, it arrived late in the original Game Boy's life and shows how much the team had learned. The sprites are large and detailed, the stages are designed tightly around the small screen, and P-chips collected along the way can be traded at Dr. Light's lab for useful items between stages. Everything about it feels like a confident, full-scale Mega Man game rather than a handheld side story.

Many fans rate it the best of the five Game Boy Mega Man games, and it is easy to see why: it takes everything the earlier handheld entries learned and finally pairs it with an all-new cast and a story set among the stars. Playing it on the hardware it was made for shows how far the series traveled on the Game Boy, and it closes that run on its highest note.

About the game

Mega Man V, known as Rockman World 5, is a video game developed and published by Capcom for the Game Boy handheld game console. It is the fifth and final game in the Game Boy version of the original Mega Man series. The game follows the adventures of the protagonist Mega Man as he must defend the Earth from a group of powerful robots from outer space called the "Stardroids". Mega Man V was also unique from the previous Game Boy Mega Man games as it features original and unique bosses rather than recycling those from the original Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) Mega Man games.
