Megaman has come a long way since Megaman 1. It has spawned games in many video game consoles such as the Nintendo Entertainment System, the Gameboy and the Playstation. How about the arcade? This review is about Megaman the Power Battle for the arcade. The game is divided into three stories. You could play Megaman 1-2, Megaman 3-6 and Megaman 7. You could choose to fight either as Megaman, Protoman or Bass. The layout of the game is as follows.

At the end of each story, you would face the Yellow Devil and Dr. Wily.

The Verdict

The game has very cartoonish graphics. The game also has improved graphics over all the original seven games. The sound is nice and lively and is a remix of games past. The ability tofight arcade style against the bosses and to play cooperatively adds a new element to the game. I highly recommend you try this.
