Mega Man's first appearance alongside Mario is in the German ''[[Club Nintendo (magazine)|Club Nintendo]]'' magazine comic "[[Super Mario: Die Bescherung]]". The comic shows him with several other characters at Mario and Luigi's Christmas party.
Mega Man's first appearance in ''Mario''-related media is in the German [[Club Nintendo]] magazine comic "[[Super Mario: Die Bescherung]]". The comic shows him with several other characters at Mario and Luigi's Christmas party.


His first and only major appearance was in the 1993 comic "[[Super Mario: Die Verwandlung]]", where he serves as Dr. Light's assistant. Toward the beginning Mega Man is the one that lets Mario into Dr. Light's home and guides him to his lab, making fun of Mario wearing a plastic bag to cover his pixelated head. Later, when Dr. Light confuses Mario's pixels for pimples, Mega Man appears and recommends "Oil of Mega Man". Finally, when Wario breaks out of the lab, Mega Man is the one driving the car they are chasing him in.

Mega Man is also mentioned in the comic "[[Super Mario: Mario im Wunderland]]". When Mario and [[Toad]] meet [[Kirby]], the latter explains that he wants to see [[Crab (character)|the wizard]] so that he can wish to look like Mega Man.

After twenty years of not appearing in any ''Mario''-related media, Mega Man appears a playable guest character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and the ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', as the third third-party character to be confirmed as a playable character.

His only direct attacks are the slide as his strong down attack, which made its debut in ''Mega Man 3'', and the Mega Upper as his strong up, a move introduced in ''Mega Man 2: The Power Fighters'' which later appeared in ''Marvel vs. Capcom''.

His dash attack is the Top Spin, a move from ''Mega Man 3'' which can hit multiple times. His up smash is the Spark Shock and his down smash is the Flame Blast, from ''Mega Man 3'' and ''Mega Man 6'', respectively. His aerial attacks include Slash Claw from ''Mega Man 7'' as his back air, Flame Sword from ''Mega Man 8'' as his front air, Air Shooter from ''Mega Man 2'' as his up air which sends a tornado into the air that pushes opponents up, and Hard Knuckle from ''Mega Man 3'' as his down air which acts as a meteor smash. His grab is the Super Arm from the original ''Mega Man''. His [[Final Smash]] is [[smashwiki:Mega Legends|Mega Legends]], which involves the other incarnations of the Mega Man character appearing alongside this one to blast opponents all at once.
 
====''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''====
{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|Mega Man (SSBU)}}
Mega Man returns as an unlockable playable fighter in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. His Final Smash now incorporates Proto Man and Bass, but otherwise functions the same as before. His Mega Buster can fire farther than the previous installment, improving some of his moves. Mega Man benefits from universal changes: his mobility is faster, his short hop timing is reduced, his aerials have less landing lag, he can directionally air dodge, and he can use any ground attack out of a run and any aerial attack on a ladder.
 
Mega Man's route in {{iw|smashwiki|Classic Mode (SSBU)|Classic Mode}} is titled Variable Weapons System: Online!. Unlike most other routes, the Bonus Game in Mega Man's Classic Mode route takes place between Rounds 5 and 6. He engages in these battles in the following order:

By scanning the Mega Man [[amiibo]] on the [[Wii U#Wii U GamePad|GamePad]] or the right Joy-Con / [[Nintendo Switch]] Pro Controller's NFC reader while playing ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' respectively, a special [[Mii]] racing suit designed after the character will be unlocked. A sample of this suit is shown right next to a picture of Mega Man on the Mii Racing Suits screen, which is located in the main menu of the game; thus, Mega Man makes his first cameo appearance within a ''Super Mario'' game. In ''Mario Kart 8'', this costume is only available as of version 4.0.

By scanning the Mega Man [[amiibo]] on the [[Wii U#Wii U GamePad|GamePad]] while playing ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', a special [[Mii]] racing suit designed after the character will be unlocked. A sample of this suit is shown right next to a picture of Mega Man on the Mii Racing Suits screen, which is located in the main menu of the game; thus, Mega Man makes his first - and currently the only - cameo appearance within a ''Mario'' game. These features are only present as of version 4.0 of the aforementioned game.
Players can unlock a Mega Man [[List of Yoshi designs in Yoshi's Woolly World|amiibo design]] for [[Yoshi]] in ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'' and ''[[Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World]]'' by scanning Mega Man's amiibo.
 
===''Super Mario Maker''===
[[File:Mega Man Super Mario Maker.png|frame]]
Mega Man's amiibo can be used to unlock a Mega Man costume for use as [[Costume Mario]] in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]''. His sprite is similar to his 8-bit sprite from the ''Mega Man'' series, but scaled down to fit the size of [[Small Mario]]. As with all other Costume Mario costumes, it can only be used in the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' graphical style.
 
Mega Man's transformation sound is the level select sound from ''Mega Man 2'', and while he has no jumping sound effect, his landing and death sounds are the ones throughout the ''Mega Man'' series, and pressing up on the d-pad causes him to hold out the Mega Buster, which also plays the sound for firing a shot in the ''Mega Man'' series. Finally, his level clear song is from ''Mega Man 2''. His running and jumping animations are based on those used in the ''Mega Man'' series, and his stopping sprite is based on his sliding sprite first seen in ''Mega Man 3''.

*[[Mario]] appears in a French commercial for ''Mega Man 2''.
*In the character's backstory, the housekeeping robot was originally named Rock before being converted into the super fighting robot, Mega Man, as stated in the introduction to ''Mega Man 4''; however, in the American English version of ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', Dr. Light's [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]] description instead suggests that he was formerly known as Mega, a nickname initially used for his fighting robot form in the {{wp|Mega Man (1994 TV series)|''Mega Man'' animated series}} produced by {{wp|Ruby-Spears}}, and later for the housekeeping form in the {{wp|PlayStation Portable}} remake ''{{wp|Mega Man Powered Up}}''. The latter instance is considered a localization error as Mega does not match his sister Roll (as in {{wp|rock and roll}}), and is corrected to Rock in the British English version.
*In ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', Mega Man's original name is "Mega" in Dr. Light's [[trophy]] description; while not incorrect, most sources instead call him "Rock" to match his sister Roll.
**This instance of his original name stems from the PSP remake of the original game ''[[wikia:Mega Man Powered Up]]''.
