A state-of-the-art Super Hero is born!!
A new series from the mega popular action game "Rockman" has finally arrived on the Super Famicom! Refining the gameplay systems seen in the Gameboy and Famicom editions, here is the latest upgrade. New actions and power-ups are added by way of the parts system. Dramatic fights unfold across the whole screen. Your enemy is the entire army headed by the world's strongest Reploid, Sigma. Rockman X fights along with Zero as a dramatic story unfolds! Fight on, Rockman X! Defeat the evil army and bring peace back to the world!!
Mega Man X2 / Rockman X2 (12.16.94)
Another gorgeous cover, with more color than a jar full of jelly beans. I rented this one several times and was wowed by the simple simple wireframe rendering at boot-up. While not quite the classic the original was, it had a fantastic opening with the hover vehicles and gigantic boss minutes into the game.

A new fight, begins now!
...Rockman X is back again.
It's been half a year since the life or death struggle with Sigma. We've seen that X's actions have brought back peace to the world. However, within that period of tranquility, new enemies called the "Counter Hunters" have appeared! Once again, X heads off into the fight...
CX4 Inside!
Capcom's original DSP chip is built-in! Character rotation, expansion/contraction and 3D Wire Frame processing has been made possible, giving the game a wide-scale power-up!
Mega Man X3 / Rockman X3 (Super Famicom) (12.1.95)
Finally adding Zero as a playable character, the third game in the series flew under my radar due to being released months after the N64. Still curious to try this out someday and experience both the 16-bit and 32-bit soundtracks.

Will Rockman X be able to smash Dr. Doppler's evil ambitions?! By powering up Rockman X through equipping parts, he'll further evolve in the newest entry to the series, which is finally here!!
"Get a load of my Beam Sabre!"
The character change system has been implemented! Your reliable friend, ZERO, is added to the fight!!
Mega Man X3 / Rockman X3 (Sega Saturn) (4.26.96)
The spiel on the back of the 32-bit versions emphasis the game's gameplay systems whereas the Super Famicom packaging went into more detail about the story. Fun fact: A 3D0 port of X3 was in development at one point.
