First I saw Mega Man in Marvel vs Capcom when I was six

Then.. I saw Mega Man NT Warrior on Kids' WB..

..Then my sister bought me Mega Man Battle Network 3 Blue Version as a Christmas present when I was in 5th grade.

=_=; I'm such a depraved child

Well, I'm a bit of a youngster, so it's probably different from most of ya.

The words of Mega Man first reached my ears when I was talking to some of my best internet friends, and basically, I was asking them which video game antagonist was their favorite.  So, I listed some of the basic ones, with a brief description, Sonic, Mario, NiGHTS, Zelda, you know.  And one of my friends--his screen name was War Panda--pointed out one thing, with the following sentence.

"Don't forget Doctor Wily!"

Since then, it's only gone uphill.  I kept hearing people blab about the Mega Man games, in all their glory.  In addition, due to my listening habits, I also heard some of the soundtrack prematurely--although, with all the MM2 Wily's Castle remixes out there, I suppose I could expect it.

Finally, after messing around in Mega Man's gameplay mode in Super Mario Bros. Crossover for the umpteenth time, I caved.  I logged onto chat, and I asked my friends which one I should get.  They all recommended Mega Man 2, as a way to ease into a difficult series...and, well, here I am, I suppose:  A Hardcore-Gamer, 8-Bit-Crackhead, Mainstream-Mega-Man Fanatic.

Warning Boring story approaching. + wall of text
I first played megaman battlenetwork at a friends house. I didn't really understand the concept. I just thought it was some guy in armor that had a gun for a hand.
Well years pass and I get a gameboy advance... about a month after the DSi was released. One of the first games I got was Megaman Battle network 5 team Protoman.
Time passes I discover nintendo8.com and play the heck out of Megaman 1, 2, and 6. then I Purchased MMBN5 colonel, and MMZ2.

Oh and IWBTG probably helped my intrest in 8bit stuff.

I watched a ton of Mario parodies on Newgrounds when I was younger, and I eventually came upon Megaman parodies.

There was one game on there (I forget which one) which got me hooked.

I was also a member of Gamefly at the time, and I happened to type in "Megaman" in the search bar.  On there, I found a copy of Anniversary collection, and from there I started on Megaman 2.

Needless to say, I had the most fun of my life up to that point.

I had Mega Man 5 for the NES basically since we've had an NES, which is pretty much longer ago than I can remember.  We'd rent the others and we got 6 when it came out.

I started Mega Man with Mega Man 10. I really liked Mega Man 10 and decided to try the X series.

I played my first Megaman game when I was about 5. Megaman: Wily's Revenge for GB it was. Around 1999, My uncle brought a friend over because he was leaving for Military school. The dude gave us his Entire NES collection. He had Megaman 4, and Megaman 6 (Though my uncle said he had all of them). Ever since then I have been playing Megaman.

I'm the youngest of my siblings and I have 3 older brothers. They all loved playing Megaman so it's always been a part of my life. I remember I started singing Flashman's theme while my brothers were playing MM2, and they just looked at me and stared. I felt terribly awkward.

As for my first game, I played Megaman a couple of years ago. Decided to try to go through all of them in order, just Classic and X series for now. Being the youngest meant that I didn't really get to play games, just watch, so I'm kind of a late bloomer.

MM1.

I had it since i was 8.

Here was how u git into it:

I was at a store when i was 8, Then i saw " Megaman " and i got my Mom to buy it and i played it Straight away, It was fun and i got my mom into buying MM2.

Here was how my Little Autistic brother got into Megaman:

He was born when MM3 was Released, And my mom got him MM7 when he was 4. And i helped him out, And me and him started to cerate Robot masters. ( He started to speak when he was 3 )

MegaMan1 on the GameCube in 2005 was my first, but I didn't relly get into it untill 2009 with MegaMan9, and the X series in 2010 with Xtreme 2 for the GBC. Excellent games indeed.

Well, I only discover Mega Man about 3 years ago. My brother and I were watching some stuff on Youtube and came across the cartoon. We got curious and looked up a wiki, then the next thing we knew, we'd bought the Anniversary collection for the GameCube. I tried MM3 first and absolutely loved it, so I quickly got 9(I got wifi on my Wii just to get it) and of course 10 when it came out.

I've just now tried the X and Zero series and I love them both. It's strange though, for years I could never make a solid decision when ever I was asked what my favorite game series was, then Mega Man pops into my life and now I have a set favorite.

I had never played megaman in the nes console (but I have that console, saved somewhere in my house :mrgreen: ). I discovered megaman watching mm10 videos. So I searched more info and I found that megaman 10 is only available on wii console  :cry: so I searched megaman roms (I had previously downloaded 40 rom for my mobile phone) and I began to play MM2. The rest is other story...

At age 7 or 8, I think. My dad rented me Megaman 7 and the fever began. Later, when the Anniversary Collection for the Gamecube came out, I got the chance to beat all the others.

I also traded one of my GB games for MM1 (GB) after beating 7 for the SNES, and only much later found out it had sequels, but never got my hands on any.  :(
