Mega Man[1] (ロックマン, Rockman) is a newcomer in Super Smash Bros. 4. He was announced at Nintendo's E3 Direct Conference presentation for the game. He is shown to appear in both the 3DS and the Wii U versions of the game. It has been said that he does not widely use hand-to-hand combat, but relies on a large arsenal of weaponry. This somewhat analogous to, but to a further extent than, Snake in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
Known moveset
Mega Man was shown using moves based on those he copied from defeated Robot Masters in his own series. The abilities shown are:
- Metal Blade, horizontal projectile attack. Projectiles can be picked up by players and thrown.
- Crash Bomber, projectile that sticks to opponents and explodes. Like the Gooey Bomb it can be applied to another character.
- Leaf Shield, produces orbiting leaves that can then be fired
- Hard Knuckle, appears to be a meteor smash
- Flame Sword, a quick aerial attack
- Slash Claw, a quick aerial attack
- Super Arm, appears to be grab-related
- Top Spin, which causes Mega Man to spin fast on the ground, damaging whatever he touches[2]
- Up smash - Spark Shock, where Mega Man turns his hands into Needles and creates a powerful electric shock above him.[3]
- Down smash - Flame Blast, which creates 2 pillars of fire next to Mega Man which damage foes.[4]
- Side smash - Charge Shot, a projectile that Mega Man charges and fires.
Aside from these named abilities, other moves shown are:
- The Mega Buster, which can be fired while running or jumping.
- A footdive attack that slides a reasonable distance.
- A jumping uppercut.
In a demonstration battle between Mega Man and Mario, Mega Man can be seen to use a couple other moves:
- Rush Coil, Mega Man bounces off Rush jumping high in the air, presumably his Up special move[5]
- Air Shooter (or possibly another air weapon), seen being used in the air to fire a tornado upwards [6]
Trivia
- Mega Man is the only character in the Smash series to have a different KO explosion. Instead of a single blast the color of the player port, he splits into the characteristic blue orbs that appear in the Game Over sequences of his games.
