It is the fourth game in the original ''Mega Man'' series and was originally released in Japan on December 6, 1991. The game was localized in North America the following January, and in Europe in August 1993. The game's story takes place after the third defeat and supposed death of Dr. Wily, and features the Earth coming under threat from a mysterious scientist named Dr. Cossack and his eight "Robot Masters". Fearing the worst, Dr. Light sends Mega Man to save the world once again. ''Mega Man 4'' carries on the same action and platforming gameplay as the first three games, in which the player completes a series of stages in any order and adds the weapon of each stage's boss to Mega Man's arsenal. One notable added feature is the "New Mega Buster" (often shortened to "Mega Buster"), an upgraded arm cannon that lets the player charge a regular shot into a much more powerful blast. The development team was mindful that this innovation would change the overall feel of the game. Despite ''Mega Man 4'' receiving positive critical reviews during its early 1990s release, the game is widely regarded today to represent a downward shift from the quality of the first three games in the series. The Mega Buster itself has been considered an overused mechanic by several sources. ''Mega Man 4'' was re-released on the Japanese PlayStation, PlayStation Network, and mobile phones; the North American ''Mega Man Anniversary Collection''; and worldwide on the Virtual Console for 3 Nintendo systems (Wii, Nintendo 3DS and Wii U). ==Plot== ''Mega Man 4'' takes place in an unspecified year during the 21st century, described as the year "20XX". One year after the events of ''Mega Man 3'' and the supposed demise of the evil Dr. Wily, Dr. Light receives a letter from a mysterious Russian scientist named Dr. Cossack claiming that he is the world's greatest robot engineer. Cossack states further that he will unleash his army of robots upon the world as a test for Light to see which of the two of them is the better inventor. Light calls upon his own greatest creation, the hero Mega Man, to go after Cossack's Robot Masters. Upon defeating the eight Robot Masters—Toad Man, Bright Man, Pharaoh Man, Ring Man, Dust Man, Skull Man, Dive Man, and Drill Man—Mega Man makes his way to Cossack's icy fortress. However, in the middle of his battle with Cossack, Mega Man's brother Proto Man teleports in with Cossack's daughter, Kalinka. The girl begs Mega Man to stop fighting her father and elaborating that Dr. Wily had kidnapped her and forced her father into building an army of robots. With Wily's plan undone by Proto Man, he steps out of the shadows.〔 Mega Man pursues his nemesis and fights through the newly built Skull Castle, but Wily manages to escape in the end. Mega Man escapes as the fortress begins to self-destruct, and rides home on the top of a passing train, where he is greeted by Roll and Rush. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mega Man 4」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
