CGRundertow MEGA MAN 2 for NES Video Game Review

Classic Game Room presents a CGR Undertow video game review of Mega Man 2 for the NES by Capcom. The second installment of the Mega man series would make large improvements in graphics, sound, and gameplay, and went on to be the most successful title in the franchise. While it retains the same non-linear elements and core design of the original, a toned down level of challenge made it much more approachable and enjoyable. Taking down Dr. Wily and his eight robot bosses has become a staple of side scrolling platform game history, and is widely considered by fans and critics alike as one of the finest video games ever created. So warm up that Mega Buster! This review features Mega Man 2 gameplay footage from the Mega Man Anniversary Collection on the Nintendo GameCube and commentary from CGR Undertow reviewer Kevin.
