    Default Megaman DOS games

    Anyone know about these? I honestly cannot find them, I don't even know if you can emulate them, I was just looking around the Megaman series a few weeks ago and stumbled upon these. I will leave links to information about what I am talking about. Thanks.

    Sure you can emulate them> Dosbox
    But you can't talk about PC games here, unless they're abandonware.

    I think they are abandonware. They no longer are sold/made, first one in 1990 and then 1992, if this isn't abadonware, then please close topic.

    Fans of the series, however, have been highly critical of the DOS games, both for having sub-standard graphics and rather poor play control.

    Sounds like they're not really worth playing anyway.

    Yeah, I am still interested in the game, as a kid, Donkey Kong and Megaman were the shit for me. And are still are, just not as much.

    I found the first one and uploaded it here for you:

    Ignore the demo in the name.

    I just added that in case SendSpace notices it, so they'll be less likely to delete it.

    Wow thanks, I will definitely try to get this to work. Anyway, so this is clear, is this abandonware or not? Also, how to I play the game/mount it? Do I need the previously mentioned Dosbox? I can't seem to get it to work. I mean I can start up Dosbox, I just don't know what to do. And I tried just clicking on the MM.exe file, don't know what to do, thanks.

    We're allowing it because the games are so old.

    This guy apparently has the 3rd one too, but he took down the link for it:
    http://highervoltage.net/mb/showpost...&postcount=331

    You could go to that forum and ask him for it.

    Well thanks, still don't know how to play, but good for me. More of just an interest for me. My friend may want to play it, I don't know. It probably is crap though.

    If you're having trouble running the game with your computer, download and install dosbox. This is an emulator that will allow you to play old dos games on your computer (tested it out on vista with warcraft 1 and it worked really well.). You can get it here: http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/download.php?main=1

    Check this forum to see how to play games on dosbox. You need to mount the games first, and this link explains how to do so. http://www.quandaryland.com/ipb/lofi...php?t5448.html

    Got it to work, made it easier, turns out if I would have used my keyboard instead of trying to click I would have had it earlier, but that guide made it easier, thanks.

    It looks okay, but I cannot get past the first creature, I think my CPU is running too fast or something, because Megaman is super fast. I am gonna try to change that. Got it to work. Still can't get past it, will probably do it later.
