Brings what grabs you about Mighty No. 9: jumping and platforming, a sci-fi setting as well as good gunplay.

A deliberately NES-style 8-bit run-and-gun platformer where you pick stages in any order, beat robot bosses and take their weapons. Tight controls and a demanding, old-school difficulty.

Mega Man 9

Jumping and platforming

Mega Man 9 deliberately returns to the 8-bit classics: tight run-and-gun platforming, bosses with weaknesses, and a free choice of stage order. It is demanding and rewards precise timing and memorization.

Duke Nukem II

Jumping and platforming

A classic DOS platform shooter where Duke blasts his way through aliens and robots as a cocky action hero. Fast levels, hidden secrets and plenty of over-the-top attitude define the game.

Bionic Commando Rearmed

Jumping and platforming

A remake of the NES classic where you swing with a bionic arm instead of jumping through 2.5D levels, fighting a militaristic regime's forces. It pairs classic arcade design with modernized visuals and a tough challenge.

Mega Man 11

Jumping and platforming

The classic run-and-gun platformer returns with a fresh 2.5D look: you beat Robot Masters, take their weapons and tackle tight, precise stages. The new Double Gear system lets you slow time or boost your firepower.

Mighty Gunvolt

Jumping and platforming

Mighty Gunvolt is a fast 2D side-scrolling action game that pays homage to retro 8-bit classics. You fire lightning-powered shots, dodge boss attacks, and chase high scores across colorful pixel-art stages that carry the Azure Striker Gunvolt spirit.

Mega Man 8

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A classic run-and-gun platformer where Mega Man defeats eight robot masters and takes their weapons. The PlayStation entry brings a colorful cartoon look, animated cutscenes and varied stages with boss fights.

VectorMan 2

Jumping and platforming

A fast run-and-gun platformer where the orb-bodied VectorMan blasts and transforms his way through an abandoned research facility. Its pre-rendered 3D orb-model look was distinctive for the era.

Azure Striker Gunvolt 2

Jumping and platforming

A fast, old-school 2D action platformer where you play as Gunvolt and his rival Copen, tagging enemies and unleashing flashy lock-on attacks. It emphasizes tight stages, boss fights and score chasing with an anime flavor.
