Chud gamers be like “this was because of woke DEI initiatives!”.

“megashat” is the word you’re looking for.
Capcom used the box art Mega Man in Street Fighter x Tekken and I wish they would do more with the character.

Here’s a helpful companion - MegaMan Box Art Image Collection
Not really needed, you can click on the “memos” to see the corresponding artwork.
The link isn’t loading for me, unfortunately. Not sure if it’s a browser thing (I use Firefox) but I suspect that it’s the “*removed*” in the URL causing trouble.
However, if you tap / click on those memos in the article I linked, it reveals the box art.
Ugh. When did that happen? I played through all the NES Mega Man games many times. His blaster arm was way cooler than any pistol.
It was the original box art. I used to have Mega Man 2 when it first came out too.
Odd. I think that’s the label I remember on the cartridge too, but I just never noticed the pistol. It definitely doesn’t look like that in-game. I played 4 the most because I loved the weapons, so maybe I just missed it entirely.
I think the first 3 were like this, i had 3 and it was similar. 4 was the first one I saw where Megaman actually looked right
I think 3 actually had a mega buster. I never had the nes game, but I had a tiger MegaMan 3 game that shared the same artwork.
3 was the first to have an accurate rendition of ole Blue
