Pages 52 and 53 of Electronic Gaming Monthly magazine issue 14

  • In Shadow Man stage, parts of the background (the green parts) appear to be missing. This may just be from the bad photo however.
  • In the two screenshots of Hard Man stage, the background is missing (black instead of the rocks from the final version)

  • The preview mentions another transformation for Rush: Drill Rush. Translation by chrismcovell "Rush Drill allows Rockman to avance through the ground by digging a hole." Some people think that in the places where Breakman shows up to blow up the ground, Rockman would have had to use Drill Rush instead.
  • The snake robot looks different than in the final version
  • Screenshots of early versions of Top Man stage and Gemini Man stage
