- For the NES and Wii virtual console game, see Mega Man 2.
Rockman World 2 (ロックマンワールド2? is a reading help for Japanese players) was originally developed and published in Japan, and later localized as Mega Man II. It is an action -platformer for the Game Boy. It is the second installment in the handheld Mega Man sub-series.
Like its predecessor, the game combines elements from two NES games: four bosses from Mega Man 2 and four from Mega Man 3. It was re-released on the Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console via the Nintendo eShop in 2013.
The original Japanese title, Rockman World 2, is clearly different from the NES title, Rockman 2. Unfortunately, in the Western localization such distinction is lost, and both the NES and GB video games are called "Mega Man II" on their title screens.
Story[edit | edit source]
It's Quint'n Time!
The demented Dr. Wily is at it again! This time he's stolen the experimental Time Skimmer and skipped into the future. But Wait! Four of his strongest cyborgs have been left behind to squash the mighty Mega Man!
Time is of the essence as Mega Man and Rush blast past waves of maniacal metal monsters on the way to underground lair of Dr. Wily. Once there they must face Quint, the ferocious fiend from the future!
