Mega Man 2 was made into a novel in Seth Godin's Worlds of Power book series. It was written by F.X. Nine and published by Scholastic in 1990.
The novel mostly follows the game, even offering game hints at the end of some chapters. Besides the added dialogue, the one major variation in the novel is that Dr. Light, fearing Mega Man's chances against Dr. Wily's new, more powerful robots, decided to duplicate him to improve his chances. However, Dr. Light accidentally turns Mega Man into a human being (a difficulty he must endure throughout the story). The book's cover also lacks the gun depicted on the North American boxart of the game (guns and other "objectionable" content were commonly removed from the cover art of Worlds of Power books)
Notes[]
- Air Man's weakness in the book is the Metal Blade. He is actually immune to it in the game, his real weakness being the Leaf Shield.
- The book portrays Guts-Dozer as impervious to every weapon but the Crash Bomber. Its actual weakness is the Quick Boomerang.
