TOKYO – Mega Man Universe has a new playable character, but one that's a longstanding part of Mega Man lore.
One of the five different playable characters in the new Mega Man game shown at Tokyo Game Show is "Mega Man Ver. NA," pictured above. Remember him? If not, perhaps this will refresh your memory:
Yes, it's Mega Man as envisioned in the horrendous box art for the original American release of the NES game. And now you can play as this deformed little monster. Wired.com readers voted the North American Mega Man cover as the worst box art screw-up ever in 2008.

Mega Man Universe is an upcoming downloadable game for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 that will let players create and share their own characters and levels.
