Do you eventually get the charged shot in Megaman 9 as the game progresses or is the game totally retro like megaman 1-3 with just the standard P-shot? I haven't had the chance to play this yet because it hasn't come out on the PSP. :mad:

Not sure since I haven't beating the game yet. But, I do know that Protoman gets the charge shot from the start...

Mega Man, unfortunately, does NOT get a charge shot or slide ability. This game has been made strictly to be reminiscent of MM1 and 2.

There is however, a method of obtaining these abilities but it requires you to download additional content and play as another character, Protoman. I think it costs 250 Wii Points (not sure for Xbox or PS3).

Protoman has the charge shot (similar to the one in MM4), the slide, and the ability to deflect shots with his shield when he jumps, and starts off with a Coil Part (called Proto Coil) and the Jet Part (called Proto Jet.). As a downside, he takes twice as much damage as Mega Man, gets pushed back twice as far when hit, and can only fire two normal shots at a time as oppose to three, making it harder to rapid-fire enemies from a distance. He also can't purchase items through Auto's Shop, therefor, never collects bolts and doesn't have any dialog through his entire playthrough.

I haven't heard any news of this coming to the PSP...

And I really don't expect to see the game being released there, or on the DS. Mega Man 9 was designed to be as close as the old NES games as possible. Playing that on a portable system would break the illusion.

I seriously wish they would have made the buster unique making like megaman 1 -6 where if megaman's health was only 25% you couldn't charge the buster once light upgrades the buster to be able to charge.
