Mega Man IV takes pity on you for dying (Game Boy) - Retrogaming Easter Eggs #shorts
30,438In Mega Man IV for the Nintendo Game Boy, if you get four consecutive Game Over screens in the same level, the game will take pity on you, and Dr. Light will give you a free Mega Buster upgrade that... doesn't seem to change much about the Mega Buster at all aside from it's visual appearance.
You will need to get four consecutive game overs without leaving the stage, so be sure to select the Continue option on the Game Over screen. After that, Dr. Light will "upgrade" Mega Man's Mega Buster, which I imagine he could have done at any time.
And from what I can tell, the damage of the Mega Buster is not increased at all from this enhancement, but the fully charged projectile seems to look and maybe sound different. Maybe the hitbox is larger? Thanks, Capcom!
Anyway it doesn't seem useful, but I thought it was a hilarious Easter Egg.
This upgrade cannot be saved through the password system, so if you shut off your game at all, you will lose the upgrade. But you can just do it all over again. It's VERY similar to an Easter Egg in Mega Man V on the Game Boy - https://youtube.com/shorts/bcr4iN2-nU8
