Retro Video – Mega Man Soccer -

1 Comment

Megaman has been one of the most symbolic characters in videogame history; he has been with us since the NES era, coming forth in the SNES era, making some awkward steps in the N64 era, and at this moment (as most do) re-hashing himself. We all remember how Megaman pioneered into the classic 8-boss + final boss formula for platformers, always fighting other Robot Masters with a certain ability, finally getting to Dr. Wily and somehow this scientist managing to escape (I guess he would be a very good friend of Dr. Robotnik from the Sonic universe. . .they always do the same).

Even though Megaman’s specialty are platformers, he has incursioned into very different genres, not as compulsively as Mario (no one can change jobs that fast) like. . .well. . .fighting straight with the bosses instead of going through all the levels. . .yeah. . .and. . .you know. . .Oh yes! playing soccer! How could I ever forget. Megaman Soccer appeared for the SNES with the re-boom of the Mega Man saga, sucking from Megaman X’s success. In it you could use either Megaman, Protoman, and a wide variety of bosses from previous NES games, the classics like Skull Man, Ice Man, Pharaoh Man. . .and the ones inserted from pity, like Bubble Man. Each captain of the team would get a super move, which could really change the fate of the game in the last minute.

If you happen to find this game, give it a try, it’s very fun even if played alone.

    Mark my words: DONT PLAY IT TO SEE THE ENDING. You will take many turns to find about it.

    In the other hand i remember Gamepro ravaged the game with low scores and mostly, pointing at the bad control and bellow-average team A.I. (your teamates will probably never catch a dang pass…)
