Because peeps like to spend more cash on trash.

Mega Man is not trash!

PCE forum or not, saying Mega Man isn't a great game series is just lunacy.

I know they are super fun and iconic, but its not like they are rare. Growing up everyone I knew had at least one of them.

I kick myself now because I traded mine when I was a kid because I got tired of them, and all the sequels.  #-o

And just when I thought the eBay copies were rediculously priced, I stopped by my local retro store and mega man 1 was $80 for the cart, manual and dust sleeve. Geez!
It just became the it thing collect again that's all.When capcom came out with the anniversary collection for PS2,GC&Xbox it did give the attention to the series again.My advice if you want to save money on buying it just go with the japanese version,the same thing for mega man x as well.

Just import them for less.

It's not like you need to read shit in a Megaman game.

whilst I don't think they are bad games or even considered as crap (as I stated earlier and seemed to upset some peeps by taking my words way too serious, lol), they certainly aren't master pieces gameplay wise.

btw. yours nandoo? very nice pic :)

The series is totally fun. You be crazy. If it is guilty of anything, you can criticize the recycled content ("more of the same") seen in later sequels.

But, and this is the crucial point I'm stressing: You be crazy.

I wish!  Someday maybe and probably not all of them.  ;)

They are good games, but I love the characters collateral art more. If that makes any sense.

You played one Mega Man game you played them all. Seriously, they are good games but they are almost as bad as how many flavors of Street Fighters we have seen over the years.

I know a guy who is crazy into Mega Man, down to having Mega Man and Zero tattoos, large ones at that. Now he's bugging me to buy my Tron Bonne.
