One of the best parts of a video game is the ending, but who has the time to go back and play through every game? Let me introduce you to Game Over: The Early Years, the weekly show where we dive into classic games and spoil both their stories and endings. From the biggest hits to obscure classics, we're taking a look at some of the best and most memorable conclusions in video game history.

When it comes to requests for episodes of Game Over, Mega Man is always close to the top. We've done more than sixty episodes of this series and have yet to tackle any of the Blue Bomber's adventures. Well, that's about to change, because this episode is dedicated the long-running franchise's very best endings. No, I'm not talking about Mega Man II or III or even IV, you weirdo, because we're going to the arcade to check in with Capcom's Power series. Turn back now if you don't want to know what happens next, because today we're going to spoil the stories and endings for both Mega Man: The Power Battle and Mega Man 2: The Power Fighters. This is Game Over: The Early Years.


Still want more endings? Then I recommend you discover 23 Endings: The Early Years, the holiday series that ran during the 2017 holiday season. We cover Ninja Gaiden, Street Fighter II, Super Mario Bros. 2, Ghostbusters, Golden Axe, Metroid, Double Dragon, Flashback, Final Fight and many more!

And while you're just clicking on stuff at random, I suggest you head over to the Defunct Games YouTube page and subscribe to the channel. We're posting new episodes of Game Over: The Early Years every Monday, along with brand new game reviews throughout the week.
