Megaman X Review

Megaman X
5UP Gaming Reviews

Mega Man was in no rush to hurry to the SNES. While many popular franchises such as Super Mario tried to leap to the new Super Nintendo to further themselves from the original NES to re-establish themselves with sequels as soon as the Super Nintendo came around, Mega Man hung back. Capcom had decided to stick to the tried and true with Mega Man. Capcom released 3 more games of the Blue Bomber before calling it quits with the NES


Mega Man X finally launched for the SNES around two and a half years after the system's debut. This wasn't just another Mega Man game with better graphics and sleeker gameplay; it was a complete reinvention of the franchise.
Much like the original Megaman games on the NES, Mega Man X is an Action-Platformer. The X series is very similar to the Classic series. You start the game on a desolate highway instead of the infamous boss select screen. This was mainly to get used to the new mechanics of the game.
