Remember Mega Man on the 2600?

Well, the folks at the wonderful art show, I am 8-Bit, wanted to see if they could make a Mega Man game using the same programming language as the original Atari game creators. Not surprisingly they succeeded.

Though it was only this one level available for play at the art show, a few of the 8-Bit artists continued to work on it and have now in fact a fully playable Mega Man cartridge for the Atari 2600. Check out the video below for the art show level.

Man, that looks pretty advanced for a 2600.

Perhaps, but look at the never released Charlie Brown game.
