It has taken a great deal of will power to restrain myself from making any sort of “Mega Man is turing 20 soon!” kind of post over the past few months/weeks/days. Now that the day has finally arrived, I want to extend all the birthday wishes in the world to the Blue Bomber.
So why am I so excited? Because I grew up with Mega Man.
No really, I did. The very first game was released in Japan 20 years ago today, just a few short months after I was born. By the time the game hit US shores, I was ready to welcome the series with my open baby arms. It took another year or so, but by the time Mega Man 2 landed in my house, I was already starting my gaming career with Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda (Not meant for a two year old, so I watched my Mom play it), and of course, Mega Man.
The party doesn’t end here though, as you can expect the birthday celebration to continue on The Tanooki throughout the week. In other words, I have quite the Mega Man list for you guys.
Now, who wants cake?
