It's quite similar, in all respects, to other Mega Man games; however, this is the first time that you get a sidekick. It's also the first time you're allowed to slide instead of merely walking. Also, there is a mysterious character called Protoman who may or may not be your friend. Rush is your dog who helps out by offering other modes of transportation when you need it. He starts out with the 'Rush Coil' ability to launch you to the top of the screen like a springboard; later he acquires the 'Rush Jet' ability to turn into a guided, floating platform to carry you wherever you need to go; and he also gets the 'Rush Marine' ability which is a submarine that works just like the jet except underwater and with the added ability to hop around out of the water(you can actually jump while on the jet but the jet continues to hover beneath you whereas you stay inside the submarine). All of these abilities function just like boss weapons. How do those work, you ask? When you defeat the boss at the end of a level you gain his power - or at least a similar power. You may pause the game at any time and switch to any single power you have. It supplants your regular Arm Cannon with a limited - but superior - ability. The weapon ammo is displayed next to your energy meter. There are 8 of these, corresponding to the 8 main levels, even though there are 21 levels in the entire game. The bosses are as follows: Snake Man, Gemini Man, Needle Man, Shadow Man, Spark Man, Top Man, Magnet Man, & Hard Man. Enemies will often supply you with both energy and ammo refills. You can also collect Energy Tanks which can only be used once but will entirely restore your health. You'll definitely want some of these for Dr. Wily's fortress, if not for the levels before it, since you start the game with only 3 lives. There are even Surprise Boxes lying around for you to find. And, of course, you do get infinite continues and a password feature to resume play at the beginning of any level.

At the forefront of this technology is Dr. Light and his assistant Dr. Wily, who are commissioned to build six robots to handle a variety of specific tasks. They are named Bombman, Gutsman, Iceman, Cutman, Elecman, and Fireman in reference to their individual prime functions. Dr. Wily, however, has bigger plans and chooses to take control of the robots and let loose destruction in a bid for world control. Dr. Light fights back with the best tool he has, an experimental human-like robot, Rock aka Mega Man, who had been tested to perform cleaning duties. Now properly armed, it's up to Mega Man to take on the maverick robots, fight his way into Dr. Wily's castle, and end this madness. Mega Man is a side-scrolling platformer. Mega Man has the ability to jump and fire his weapon. He must travel to the levels of the six robot masters and defeat them in combat. By doing so, Mega Man is able to acquire their power for his own. These powers can then be used interchangeably with his main weapon and target the weaknesses of specific enemy bosses. Additionally, some hidden areas of the levels can only be accessed by using certain captured robot weapons. A special Magnet Beam ability can also be found which can be used to create steps. Travelling throughout these levels, Mega Man is confronted by an army of lesser robot creations. Destroying these usually yields energy capsules (for refilling Mega Man's Energy), weapon capsules (for refilling Mega Man's special robot weapons), and extra lives shaped like Mega Man's head.

It is a licensed Nintendo product, and is a combination of the Family Computer (Famicom) and the Famicom Disk System (FDS). The basic parts of the Twin Famicom include a 60-pin slot for Famicom cartridges, a slot for FDS disks, a switch located right below the cartridge slot which allows the player to choose between either "Cassette (カセット)" or "Disk (ディスク)", the power button, and the reset button. And then, there are of course the ejection buttons. FDS disks can be removed using the yellow button at the button of the disk slot. The mechanism that is uses is similar to the ones that are used in modern day floppy disk drives. Meanwhile, the ejection switch for cartridges is located between the power and reset buttons. It is amusing to note, though, that this particular ejection mechanism usually causes the cartridge to "pop" out of the slot, much like the way bread slices do when coming out of a pop-up toaster. This particular trait has caused the Twin Famicom to sometimes be referred to as a "toaster" among video game consoles. Lastly, it can also be noted that the system does not allow both slots to be used or even occupied at the same time. The switch which changes the mode from Disk to Cassette works in a manner in which choosing to use the cassette slot will block the disk drive, and vice versa. Besides the very fact that it has put together two pieces of video game hardware into a single package, the Twin Famicom comes with some extra features. The console comes with two hard-wired controllers, which like the normal Famicom; only the 1 player controller has the start and select buttons. On the second player controller, they are replaced with a microphone; again just like the normal Famicom. It also comes with a port (like the Famicom), which allowed games like Moero TwinBee to support more than the usual two players, or for the matching version of the NES Zapper to be attached. A second port (of a slightly different shape) is also present for connecting to another Famicom via the usual black RAM unit that comes with a Famicom Disk System. This allows another standalone Famicom to use the disk drive on the Sharp Twin Famicom. This is the (AN-505-BK) model of Twin Fami. It has additional features not found on the original red or black Twin Famicom. First of all the controllers have longer cords and second the controllers are equipped with turbo buttons (much like the later controllers for PC-Engine).
