79 MEGA MAN (Capcom, 1987)
a must own game, the original 1meg Mega Man. This game has only 6 selectable enemy stages and a point system too. Defeat the 6enemies and steal there weapons to confront the evil Dr. Wily in the final showdown. Easily the toughest Mega Man game with no passwords or Energy Tanks either. A great challenging action game with nice cartoony graphics.

83 MEGA MAN 2 (Capcom, 1989)
This heavily delayed 2meg sequel to the original Mega Man game, features the only major chances to the original series by taking out the point system and adding different difficults. It's was so good that Capcom desided that all Mega Man games would emulate the 8robot rule from there on.
