'''Mega Man''' ({{ja|ロックマン|Rokkuman}}, ''Rockman'') is a newcomer in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. He was announced at Nintendo's [[E3]] 2013 Direct Conference presentation for the game, becoming the first-revealed of the six third-party characters in the game along with [[SEGA]]'s {{SSB4|Sonic}} and {{SSB4|Bayonetta}}, [[Bandai Namco]]'s {{SSB4|Pac-Man}}, fellow [[Capcom]] character {{SSB4|Ryu}}, and [[Square Enix]]'s {{SSB4|Cloud}}. He does not widely use hand-to-hand combat, instead relying on the large arsenal of ranged weaponry he has amassed by defeating boss characters in his own games. His sound effects are reused from the vast number of retro [[Mega Man (universe)|''Mega Man'' games]] he has appeared in. | '''Mega Man''' ({{ja|ロックマン|Rokkuman}}, ''Rockman'') is a newcomer in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''.

Based on the move of the same name from ''Mega Man 2: The Power Fighters'', ''Marvel vs. Capcom'' and ''Street Fighter X Tekken'', which is itself a tribute to the [[Shoryuken]] from the {{uv|Street Fighter}} series. For a tilt, it has incredible power (in fact being stronger than his uncharged up smash), with the sweetspot having as much power as some smash attacks and being able to reliably KO medium-light characters under 90%. It has little starting lag but very high ending lag and little horizontal range. It also pushes Mega Man forward a slight distance; if Mega Man uses the move near a ledge, he will fall off and grab the ledge. | ||
