Trivia / Mega Man 6

  • Official Fan-Submitted Content: Although having Robot Masters made from fan entries is a tradition going back to Mega Man 2, Mega Man 6 is notable for being the only game with Robot Masters designed by non-Japanese fans (Wind Man by Michael Leader of the United States, and Knight Man by Daniel Vallèe of Canada). These were picked from thousands of Nintendo Power entries in a cross-promotion.
  • Network to the Rescue: Capcom decided it wasn't going to export the game out of Japan because the NES was nearing the end of its lifecycle and the SNES had been around for a few years already. But the Nintendo Power contest to design new Robot Masters for the game had already been completed, so Nintendo released the game in America themselves to ensure the two contest winners would see the fruits of their labor.
  • Late Export for You: Europeans and Australians didn't get the game on NES since the console's life was effectively over and Nintendo didn't feel the need to publish it there like in North America. It took 19 years for it to finally see the light of the day on the Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console to coincide with Mega Man's announcement in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U.
