What game was the peak of Megaman's popularity?
Megaman
The Megaman video game series is very popular and has a lot of games. Nowadays the series isn't as popular as it once was. What year and/or game do you think was the peak of the popularity for Megaman? Do you think maybe Megaman 5 or Megaman X in the early 1990's?
I'm currently playing some of these games on an emulator for fun. I just beat Megaman 1(Nes) for the first time.

I should say that the Megaman 2, Megaman 7, Megaman X, Megaman X3, and Megaman Zero are the peaks of Megaman popularity IMO
The NES games were by far the peak, I believe. Everything after the linear number series (1-8 I believe?) just became another forced knockoff to line Capcom's wallets.
Mega Man X 1-4ish were good, but after that the whole series started going downhill. I think the peak was probably Mega Man 2-3.
Mega Man 1-3 and 7 (2 of course being the best but 3 is pretty good considering it being rushed)
Mega Man X 1, 2, 4, 5 (though 6 is my favorite and 8 turned out to be good. Hell even Command Missions is actually a good solid RPG)
I can't say much about the Zero series as I've only played the first one (loved it) and I can't say much about Battle Network cause it looks horribly stupid. The type of game I would play only for the gameplay and never for the story.
I wish they would make Mega Man 9
True beauty exists in things that last only for a moment.
Current Mood: And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe. Maybe this year will be better than the last. I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself. To hold on to these moments as they pass...
my favourite was X but i don't remember the megaman craze ever.
I've played two megamans...one we rented before I started playing games for long periods of time (I think my MOM played that game), the other one my uncle bought and I haven't seen since he moved out. The one my uncle had was Megaman 8, I think...it was kinda fun...
I played the first Battle Network and really liked it.
Mega man 2 was definitely the series peak.
Dreddz, Megaman 2 could be the series peak. Were you playing these games at that time? I remember when these games were out.
Megaman X was ultiamte and popular but I think the series peaked earlier. I'm guessing 2-5 could be the peak.
I'm playing 3 now
Megaman 2 and Megaman 5 and Megaman X had top music!

I don't know if Megaman X3 was the peak of popularity, but it DEFINITELY was the peak of the series in terms of pure awesomeness.
did this game ever have a peak?
I like chocolate!! No matter what flavor you get, you can always taste the broken dreams!
~Dead people should stay dead, otherwise whats the point of killing them???
Did you just say what I think you said?
But I would say that x was the best and that they need to get rid of these new card battle games and go back to the 2d and maybe, just maybe 3d.
Don't forget Megaman 7.Originally Posted by Roto13
