NTSC-U Mega Man Guide (GBC/GBA only)

Recommended Posts

Big thanks to @Renmauzofor assisting with photos/cross-referencing!

A while ago I completed my Mega Man sets on GBC/GBA and thought it'd be useful to share some of the info I discovered. It's not very complicated but there are slight nuances to note. Thankfully no design/content changes that I've found thus far. 🤗

Titles in this guide:
- Mega Man Xtreme
- Mega Man Xtreme 2
- Mega Man Battle Network (1-6)
- Mega Man Battle Chip Challenge
- Mega Man Zero (1-4)
- Mega Man & Bass

---

All game contents are assumed to include: cart, manual, precautions booklet, and cardboard inlay/tray (although some don't and are noted). Differences between prints for the cart/manual/booklets aren't covered here, though there's definitely multiple runs of some games (such as Battle Network 3), so content/design changes are possible to have happened and I missed it.

Format for games in this guide:

Game Name

Variants:
- Variant 1
- Variant 2
- ...

Additional contents:
- Item 1
- Item 2
- ...

<pics>

Variants will include box (e.g. double-ended box) and seal (e.g. H-seam) variants. Contents will always refer to paperwork and/or extras included in the box.

TODO:
- Confirm contents for double ended box variants of MMBN3 blue and white versions.
