Last updated
Ever wondered if Mega Man belongs to the Nintendo family? You’re definitely not alone in this curiosity. Let’s dive into the colorful world of Mega Man and find out!
Is Mega Man a part of Nintendo’s legendary lineup of games? It’s a question many gamers have pondered over the years.
The Short Answer: Not Exactly
Mega Man, also known as Rockman in Japan, is actually the brainchild of Capcom, a different powerhouse in the gaming industry. Although many of Mega Man’s adventures have found a home on Nintendo consoles over the years, the character and the series itself originate from Capcom.
This confusion often arises because Mega Man games have been prominently featured on Nintendo platforms since the series’ inception in the 1980s. As a result, the character has become closely associated with Nintendo’s brand, despite being an external creation.
