I first played this game on my emulator 4 years ago. I found this game to be extremeley boring. There is nothing new with this game and its just not on the same level as the 4 before it. I recommend u to stick with the first 4 Mega Man games and avoid this one if u are new to Mega Man. I never got into any Mega Man games after 4, not even Mega Man X series. Maybe its cause I am older now but I seriously think if this was a good game I would have liked it when I first tried it.

After saving the world from Dr. Wily's evil intentions, Mega Man returns home... only to find that robotmasters are causing chaos and Dr. Light's been kidnapped! The culprit? Mega Man's brother, Proto Man. But why has he turned evil? Actually, you soon find out that it's an elaborate [plan] to frame the horribly underrated "older" brother of the blue bomber, and so here begins my review of Mega Man's fifth adventure on the NES.
THE GOOD
The storyline is actually among the best in the series and it allows a refreshing change to the normal "Dr. Wily's at it again, let's get him!" storyline. Proto Man actually has a substantial role in the plot and I believe him to be a very underused character (Capcom, MAKE HIM HIS OWN GAME.). Beat is also introduced in this game and he's quite useful. This game is the only game that allows him to attack bosses (and makes Wily at the end seem like a walk in the park!). The game is thankfully a bit more difficult than 2,3, and 4 with the evil "Darkman" stages. The graphics are also better and the backgrounds even have parallax to them.
THE BAD
This game has a more powerful "Mega Buster," but every time you get hit, you have to start the charge over again. This wasn't that huge of a deal, but I wish they would've kept it more like MM4's Mega Buster. Also, the music is mostly mediocre with only a handful of tunes that are really memorable.
OVERALL
While not a bad game, I find it hard to rank it above the first four games. It doesn't -quite- touch the first four in terms of charm and the good, old fashioned "Mega Man feel." I really can't explain it, and perhaps if it had better music, it would've been better. The game doesn't connect well with the others at all, which is quite a shame. My feelings on this game are very mixed, but I still recommend at least playing it through. It is, after all, essential to your Mega Man library.

Proto Man has turned evil and kidnapped Dr. Light? He assembled an army of robots and unleashed them on the world? Come on! I'm sure a first grader could figure out Wily is behind this. And the innovations here? The Rush Jet is still in the "piece of junk" mode from Mega Man 4, and the Super Arrow is next to useless. The music is not good in most places. Proto Man's fortress is a NIGHTMARE! I'm a master game player and even I have trouble with it. There is no Energy Tank in the final fortress station, so if you don't have any to use on Wily you're gonna lose and probably have to start over. Most NES Mega Man games are great, but this is just mediocre.

This game is the best Mega Man game on the original Nes. If you have an Nes you must get this game. The reason I say this is because Protoman kidnaps Dr. Light and Mega Man has to stop him. Find out why would Mega Man's brother would kidnap, remeber in Mega Man 4 he was a good guy. I won't give away the entire story but this game has alot to keep you interested. Check it out.
