Mega Man's appearance and aesthetics in this game are based on his appearance in the NES titles, possessing a moveset centered around shooting as his opponents; he can use the Mega Buster to fire multiple single shots as his standard attack, which can be used while both walking and jumping, and use the Charge Shot as a side smash attack<ref>[http://mariopartylegacy.com/2013/08/week-12-super-smash-bros-official-site-updates/ Week 12: Super Smash Bros. Official Site Updates | Mario Party Legacy]</ref>. 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''. | |||
=== | Much of Mega Man's moveset is based around the special weapons (referred to as the "Variable Weapon System") obtainable from the various Robot Masters in the classic ''Mega Man'' series<ref name="Developer Direct">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQD1yJinzeQ#aid=P-_6kKFPkbY YouTube - Wii U & Nintendo 3DS Developer Direct - Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U @E3 2013]</ref>. His special moves include [[Metal Blade]], [[Crash Bomber]], and [[Leaf Shield]] from ''Mega Man 2'' as his neutral special, side special, and down special respectively, and [[Rush Coil]] from ''Mega Man 3'' as his up special. 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 [[Mega Legends]], which involves the other incarnations of the Mega Man character appearing alongside this one to blast opponents all at once. | ||
