[edit] Differences from Mega Man

  • The game features a 3D super-deformed anime graphical style.
  • Two new Robot Masters, Time Man and Oil Man, have been added to the game, bringing the total number of Robot Masters up to eight instead of six.
  • There are two modes that are available to play: New Style and Old Style. New Style gives the player the chance to play as all of the eight Robot Masters and it features level design changes (in order to utilize the PlayStation Portable's wide-screen display) as well as music remixes. Old Style is nearly identical to the original Mega Man, but the super-deformed graphics are still in place, and Time Man and Oil Man are not available to fight against.
  • A level construction mode is available for players to build their own Mega Man levels.
  • An on-line mode is also available for players to upload and download custom-built levels. The player also has the choice to download both Roll and Proto Man from the on-line mode.

[edit] Trivia

  • The game has the largest playable cast in the franchise, which includes Mega Man (plus his 3 alternate forms), Roll, Proto Man, and the 8 Robot Masters. This brings the total of playable characters to 14.
  • Strangely, Proto Man says he has an unstable Nuclear Core, when within the first few games, he had an unstable solar core, and Doctor Wily doesn't seem to be aware of Proto Man's existence, while he took Proto Man in, again, within the first few games, making this game have quite a few plot holes.
  • The personality quirks the Robot Masters have bear resemblance to webcomic Bob and George, but the personalities are very loose to the comic.
