->"Is ''that'' Kid Kool? What happened?? He looks nothing like the guy on the cover! Now ''that's'' what you call [[TotallyRadical Kool!]] Shaking his fist at a wizard, a dragon [[LegCling humping his leg]]..."
-->-- '''WebVideo/TheAngryVideoGameNerd'''

->''"When Wily cites Asimov's law of robotics about harming humans, Mega Man obediantly freezes in Japan, speaking only in ellipses. In the West, the Blue Bomber instead declares that [[SecondLawMyAss he is more than a mere robot]] and wishes death upon Wily, going against his usual moral justice and desire for peace. This odd, rapid tonal shift clashes with the game's otherwise light-hearted, kid-friendly approach and was possibly to make ''Mega Man'' a little more edgier for US teens. In either case, [[CanonDiscontinuity it's a one-time affair]] and no attempt of making the hero a vigilante killer ever came up again."'''
