Keiji Inafune created a story that hooked us all as children. Since then, I have played all Mega Man games as well as the X series. I played and replicated my brother’s play style until I developed my own groove and became an independent gamer who wanted to figure things out on his own. I finally grew enough courage to try to play as the Blue Bomber in 1990 when Mega Man 3 came out. While I didn’t play the game myself, I watched my brother intently as he made his way through the robots and they progressively tricky level designs. First, I want to establish a little history of myself I have been an avid Mega Man fan since the original dropped in 1987. I understand that my header there sounds extreme or dramatic but it is not without just cause. What actions will you use to take down the enemies? You can expect even more strategic and exhilarating game play in the final version.Spiritual Successor or Abomination to the Blue Bomber? These are images and will differ from the final version of the game.įurthermore, Beck can use accumulated Xel for special actions such as moving at great speeds, using rapid combo attacks, or even send a shock wave across the entire screen, etc. Transform into a tank and be able to move on spikes without taking damage spread your body apart to avoid an enemy’s attack or turn your arms and legs into giant magnets allowing you to steal an enemy’s equipment. Beck’s transformations hold limitless possibilities! These are images in the idea phase and will vary from the transformations in the final version of the game. Beck has the ability to absorb Xel from other robots and learn their programs, allowing him to transform his own body and use various abilities. In the world of Mighty No.9, all robots are made up of small cube-shaped robots called “Xel ” (pronounced "cell"). Given orders they can give off heat and electricity-the various actions of robots are made possible with the movements of the Xel. “Xel” are extremely small cube-shaped robots that have the ability to combine and transform to make up various robots. However, Beck has a special ability that none of the other robots possess: that of “transformation”. Unlike his siblings, he wasn’t created with combat efficiency in mind. The main protagonist Beck is the youngest member of the popular Battle Colosseum team, the “Mighty Numbers”.
