Item Description

Hear the opening notes of Dr. Wily's castle theme and plenty of players are instantly back in front of a CRT, controller in hand. Mega Man 2 is the game that turned Capcom's Blue Bomber from a modest debut into a franchise, and the story behind it is part of the appeal: the first game had not sold strongly, and the team was allowed to make a sequel only on the condition that it fit around their other work, so much of it was built in their own time. Their passion shows in every stage.

The structure is the one nearly every later entry would follow: choose any of eight Robot Masters from the stage select screen, fight through his themed level, defeat him and claim his weapon. This time the lineup is Metal Man, Air Man, Bubble Man, Quick Man, Crash Man, Flash Man, Heat Man and Wood Man, and the fun is in working out the chain of weaknesses that links them. Quick Man's stage tests your nerve with corridors of instant-death lasers, Flash Man's Time Stopper is the weapon that cuts Quick Man himself down to size, and Metal Man's spinning saw blades are so useful that countless players have carried them through most of the game.

Capcom also smoothed out the rough edges of the original. Energy Tanks let you bank health for a desperate moment, a password system means you no longer have to clear everything in one sitting, and the North American release added a choice of Normal or Difficult mode. Wily's fortress is a multi-stage gauntlet that opens with a giant Mecha Dragon chasing you across a string of floating blocks, a set piece that still gets the pulse going.

Then there is the soundtrack. Takashi Tateishi's score is wall-to-wall melody, and the Wily stage theme in particular has been covered by bands, remixers and orchestras for decades. Mega Man 2 became the best-selling game of the original NES series, and its mix of free stage order, clever weapon combinations and unforgettable music set the template the Blue Bomber's later adventures kept refining. Decades on, it still moves with a speed and confidence that make it easy to see why so many players point to it as the moment they fell for the series.
