Mega Man (DOS)

Mega Man is a DOS game released in the USA in 1990. It was officially licensed by Capcom USA to Hi-Tech Expressions. The game was developed in association with Rozner Labs. It is followed by its own sequel, titled Mega Man 3, despite the absence of a Mega Man 2.

Story
It is the year 2009, and the world is peaceful thanks to the efforts of the peacekeeping supercomputer CRORQ. However, robots around the world start to malfunction and turn violent. Dr. Light sends Mega Man to investigate and hunt down the three Robot Masters at the head of the violent insurrections - Dyna Man, Sonic Man, and Volt Man. However, these Robot Masters are holding up in a large fortress, each holding a key to an inner sanctum. Mega Man makes his way to each Robot Master's lair, defeating hordes of enemies, and obtains the three keys he needs to unlock the door leading to the source of the robot insurrection- Dr. Wily's Skull Castle! Mega Man makes his way deep inside, where he discovers that Wily had reprogrammed CRORQ to use it to obtain the ends to his own evil desires. Mega Man has no choice but to defeat CRORQ, then Dr. Wily, putting Wily's plans on ice...

Ending


The ending is a one screen image telling the player that "Dr. Wiley" has surrendered, and that Mega Man has saved the planet from destruction, along with the credits.

Trivia

 * Unlike any other games, Mega Man (PC) only had three Robot Masters, unless one counts Buster Rod. G, Mega Water. S, and Hyper Storm. H from Mega Man: The Wily Wars's Wily Tower mode.
 * The game features no music, and uses inferior graphics and sounds compared to their NES counterparts.
 * Because the box art uses an unedited section of Mega Man 3's box art, Rush is featured in the background, but is not in the game itself.
 * When Mega Man uses a Robot Master's weapon, he does not change color.
