The fourth entry of our second take on video game rivalries is Dr. Albert Wily vs Mega Man (Rockman)! With a little delay, because the polishing of the song took a little longer than expected…nah, honestly, I’ve just been slacking off a little too much~
The whole setting reminds me a lot of Eggman vs Sonic which was featured in the first VG Arch Rivals. The protagonist is blue, the antagonist is a scientist…and they’ve been enemies since the first game. The entire (!) original Mega Man series was about stopping Wily’s plans. Now if that doesn’t deserve a place here (despite the fact that Bass would be a much more suited rival) then I don’t know.
There are tons of Mega Man tunes in this mix, naturally quite some Boss and Wily Stage Themes, also Bass, Proto Man and even Metal Man (being one of Wily’s first creations) make an appearance. To represent Mega Man I chose the Intro Theme from Mega Man 2 this time. I usually use the one from Mega Man 3, but this one is more fast-paced and should be equally iconic. A worthy mix, don’t you think?

The great finale awaits…or does it? The next entry is gonna be the one that was announced way before the others and it’s one I hope you’ve been looking forward to as well.
