A video of an art project featuring Capcom's classic Mega Man for the Nintendo Entertainment System reworked by David Galloway for the Atari 2600 has been circulating lately, as who can possibly resist seeing a two-color blue bomber take on five screens worth of Elec Man's lair? Better yet, the demo is now available for play on Atari 2600 emulators. Check it out one time, won't you?
I just missed the landmark Atari 2600 years, so this video doesn't send shivers down my spine like it may those who were around for that console generation, but I can still appreciate the concept. Still, demos like this Mega Man creation and its five screens worth of playable content make me glad that I came aboard the world of gaming during the Nintendo Entertainment System era.
