Megaman: Dr Wily's Revenge Review (Gameboy)

Post by Satoshi_Matrix »

Alrighty, time for another review. Thought I'd talk this time about the first of the Gameboy Megaman games, Dr. Wily's Revenge. Completely the opposite of the NES Megaman 1, I distinctively remember thinking Megaman was cool based on the boxart for this Megaman 1.

Enjoy!

great game in a great series. The 5 GB Mega Man's really just get better as they go, with IV and V being completely amazing.

dude, spoilers!

Even though I was kinda negitive on Dr. Wily's Revenge, one has to remember a bad Megaman game is still better than 90% of the other crap out there :lol:

Also gotta say, along with the canceled Resident Evil GBC demake, Megaman Mania/Anniversary Collection was by far my biggest disappointment when I heard it was canceled. I SO would have bought that game. Twice in fact, to get the Japanese Rockman Worlds.

Oh well. Maybe Capcom will decide to update them for the 3DS, though that's a pipedream.

As far as my reviews go, what would you guys like to see next? I'm tossing ideas in my head but the ones I've done the groundwork screenshot work for are:

Golgo 13 Top Secret Episode (NES)
The Legend of Zelda Link's Awakening DX (GBC)
Arcana Heart (PS2)
Astroboy Omega Factor (GBA)
Zero Wing (Megadrive)

What of those do you guys most want to see first?

For the titles you listed you should review Astro Boy because I guarantee a lot of people missed a fantastic game. Second choice would be Golgo 13. I remember the announcement for that particular megaman collection, and especially how capcom just let the supposed release date just keep fading away.

I've been meaning to pick up Astro Boy for a long time, but could never justify the price. My huge backlog is not helping in that regard.

The gba game is definitely a sleeper hit. You may be able to find it for a great price now.
