If the Fates were kind, we would have been able to put this latest match-up to the test in Super Smash Brothers Brawl for the Wii. However, we’re going to leave it up to the people on this one- the Mega Buster versus the Power Suit., the Blue Bomber versus the Chosen One of the Chozo- that’s right, it’s Mega Man versus Samus Aran, and you get to decide the winner after the jump!

MEGA MAN

The Blue Bomber- from countless battles against Dr. Wily and his hordes of evil robots to the far flung future adventures of Maverick Hunter X, Mega Man is truly iconic. Armed with his trusty Mega Buster and able to incorporate the powers of his defeated enemies into his arsenal, Mega Man can probably save the world from evil in his sleep. That is, if robots sleep…

VERSUS

SAMUS ARAN

Orphaned at birth and infused with Chozo DNA that gave her enhanced physical abilities, Samus has donned her Power Suit again and again to rid the galaxy of evil Space Pirates and all the evils that lurk among the stars. At times, her powers are almost limitless, and she has been known to blow up a few space stations and planets here (or at least run away from said explosions) and there during her adventures. From evil giant genetically engineered brains, vampiric energy stealing aliens, and even her own doppleganger, Samus has faced the best the galaxy has had to offered and has blasted them to smithereens time and time again…

Who will win the battle of the Blasters? You decide!

I don't know.  Samus does seem extremely prone to losing parts or all of her armor at the slightest jolt.  Even her players look for ways to remove it at any avenue offered.  It can't be good for one's chances when the ones deciding your fate in a mechanized duel just want to see you naked.

Oh, come on, if Mega Man had boobs, the lonely nerds of the world would try to undress him too.  That's hardly fair to Samus.

When it comes to the fire power category Mega Man seems mostly likely to have the edge with his variety of weapons, although they are not all equally uesfully and may only work well on certain enemies.  However, both Mega Man and Samaus both share an energy canon that can charge.  Also depending on the Mega Man game he might have an ice ray and missles, which are a staple of Samaus' cache.  But Samaus is defininitely the most maneuverable and that can mean the difference between life and death.  So I think that Samaus would win, especially she could duck long before Mega Man could.

Rockman... because he's Asian, and instinctively can fight at superhuman levels.

I'm gonna go with Samus on this one, she's got more of a badass factor than Mega Man.
