Mega Man Zero 2 Now Available On Wii U Virtual Console
Inti Creates' Mega Man Zero sequel is now available on the Wii U's Virtual Console.
You can download the game for $7.99. Released in 2003 for Game Boy Advance, Mega Man Zero 2 has more in common with the original Mega Man and Mega Man X games than the first Mega Man Zero by giving players the opportunity to select which stage they would like to attack from a choice of four at a time. The first Mega Man Zero game opted for a more 2D open world structure. Upon release, we gave the game a 7 out of 10.

Our Take
I am a huge Mega Man X fan, which I have made abundantly clear at every opportunity here at Game Informer. Many say the Zero series is about the closest thing to a sequel the X series has truly received, but I have never really played them – at least not to completion. I downloaded the first Mega Man Zero when it released for Virtual Console and played it a bit, and I plan on grabbing the sequel as well. It's one of my bucket list series that I do genuinely hope to complete one day.
