Megaman has become a famous brand with a lot of products released over the past decade. Players join the game to play a boy equipped with the power of the future and fight for peace. Using your strength for the right purpose and each different version has a different purpose installed by the game through the story. Basically, all versions follow a familiar way of playing, but the challenge is always innovative, so players are still eagerly waiting.
Mega Man Zero Collection 2010 is an integrated version when players can use favorite characters, Zero. Therefore, this version has only one character, so this character has also been combined with the power of a colleague. In the previous example, he could only use Blade to fight, now can perform in both long range and close range. Mega Man Zero Collection 2010 will still give players the fascinating and magical journey of heroic boys. This time it will be an adventure to faraway places that humans have never touched. Our protagonist will be equipped with state-of-the-art special armor and use his power to fight against many strange monsters.
The gaming screen will still look like what it showed before. Players will control their characters in both Blade and Gun states. They have the freedom to switch these two weapons together comfortably in battle. It is a journey to reach the final destination and meet a powerful boss. For this journey, players must find ways to upgrade their powers through quests. Specifically, they will have equipment such as helmets, armor and weapon upgrade
A playthrough of Capcom's 1995 arcade action game, Mega Man: The Power Battle.
This video shows me playing through each of the courses:
Mega Man: The Power Battle is one of the *many* spin-offs the blue bomber has starred in over the years, but unlike most, this one was designed specifically for arcades. Rather than entirely ditching the series' well-known set of mechanics, Capcom decided rather to adapt them to a new format that they were already intimately familiar with - the tournament-style versus fighter.
That's right, Mega Man gets thrown in the blender with Street Fighter II, and the result is something that was (somewhat unexpectedly) excellent through-and-through!
The game calls upon robot masters from Mega Man games of the past and gives them a complete 32-bit makeover with massive, hand-drawn sprites. They all still entirely recognizable (thanks largely to their unique designs and personalities), but anyone that loved this crowd on the NES is instantly going to fall in love all over again at just how much care was taken in updating the characters. The remixed music is also thoroughly excellent, taking good advantage of the CPS1 hardware's formidable FM capabilities.
The gameplay stays quite close to the original NES games, though. It's presented as a boss rush, and as you would expect, each win earns you the fallen enemy's weapon as a prize. Just like in the original games, each weapon won will be particularly strong against a different enemy, so it's a good idea to fight them in an order that exploits their weaknesses.
There are three major ladders to play through - the first is based on robot masters from Mega Man 1 and 2, the second from Mega Man 3 through 6, and the third from Mega Man 7. Furthermore, you get to choose playing as Mega Man, Protoman, or Bass. They do all play similarly to one another, but they do each have their own specific quirks that differentiate them enough to make them all worth trying out.
It did see accurate home conversions on the Mega Man Anniversary Collection (PS2/GC/Xbox) back in 2004, along with an absolutely stellar 8-bit style adaptation for the Neo Geo Pocket Color (named Rockman Battle & Fighters - you can find my translated playthrough of that one here: https://youtu.be/ffwl__Jh290), but it seems to have otherwise been forgotten by Capcom.
I hope that they release again at some point. It's a fantastic homage to a classic series that deserves a shot at a new audience.
