The MBoard

I was having the usual argument with my friends over how great/rubbish Megaman is, and somehow Megaman Soccer came up in conversation. They didn't believe me when I told them that there was actually a game where you can play soccer as Robot Masters. Anyway, long story short we all came over to my house, put it on (with no idea how to play) and started soccering away.

Holy cow, this game is the most entertaining thing on god's green Earth. After an hour of playing (and we couldn't stop), we'd gone through the entire spectrum of human emotion.

The happiness that comes from scoring a goal.
The sadness that follows when your controls go spastic randomly.
The anger of never being able to control the person you want to.
The regret after choosing Woodman as a team member.
The irritation of realising that power shots = free goals.

After three hours of playing this crap, and perfecting our seemingly unblockable strategies only to find counters for them time and time again, after accidentally choosing Woodman (or maybe not accidentally, maybe deep down we all believe that he isn't just an immobile piece of junk that could never score, tackle or save a goal if his little robotic heart depended on it) too many times...

...We've decided that this is the best Megaman game of all time.

Hehehe, MegaMan Soccer. I've played it surpisingly its not a bad game...I could never figure out how to use the power shots though....I always scored using the pass button. ;D

I'd like to see Megaman Soccer on a modern platform like the Wii.

Or even better, Megaman Hockey!

I love Mega Man Soccer! I would spend hours playing through that game.

And then cry out in frustration when I beat it and it just rebooted.

I really wanted them to put MegaMan Soccer as an unlockable in MMAC. I was really hoping it would be on there somewhere, along with Battle & Chase. Well, at least we got that one.

Right. It's one of the worse soccer games I've played. And I have played good and bad ones.

Or even better, Megaman Hockey!

No. I like hockey, but no. It would suck. You KNOW it would suck deep down.

BUT, I'd love a basketball game of MM if it played like NBA Street Vol. 2 for GC.

No. I like hockey, but no. It would suck. You KNOW it would suck deep down.

I suppose...But I just can picture Dr.Wily as a sceaming Hockey coach, Woodman as a Goalie, Hardman as goon, and Dr.Light as a color commentator.

I like hockey

Stop the Goddamn presses!


The man from Canada LIKES HOCKEY!

Right. It's one of the worse soccer games I've played. And I have played good and bad ones.

It's not a good soccer game, and it's not a good Mega Man game, but it somehow still manages to be unbelievably awesome.

By being unbelievably horrible?

Just asking.

Quite possibly so.

MegaMan Soccer needs a remake.

I remember having some NES soccer game with River City Ransom-type sprites. God, I miss that game.

Where can you buy this game?

Flea markets would be your best bet, or anywhere that sells old SNES games. If you plan to buy it, be ready to spend like around $40.

Doubt that bit, but I DO remember seeing a copy of it in the flea market near me.

"GOAL!"?

I would like to see a MMX Soccer.....

"GOAL!"?

It was Nintendo World Cup, and it was great.

And I realise now that they'd probably have to rename it on VC due to "World Cup".

Abe's on the ball.

I really remember it because the special kicks you could do to easily earn a goal.

Oh, the memories... (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00d9RrwCGDY)

That looks like fun.

Thank you.

I actually bought MM soccer kind of as a joke, but now i realize that NOBODY really has this game, so whenever I hear somebody say they have all the megaman games, BAM!!! There's another one they don't have! Not to mention I've had hours of fun killing my braincells by playing the game.
