 | | Mega Man, or Rockman as the character is known in various countries, including Japan, is the hero in a series of video games made by Capcom for various Nintendo and other gamingconsoles. |
 | | The series is set in the ambiguous year 20XX to avoid seeming dated; in Mega Man 2 this was given as 200X, but generally thetransition is interpreted as a change in canon rather than an indication of time passing. |
 | | Perhaps Capcom was getting bored with Mega Man at the time they released the first Mega Man X. SNES was no longer a littlekid's game system, with games like Mortal Kombat popping up, Capcom couldtell that gamers wanted something new, something fresh to soothe their Mega Man appetites. |
