Over on USgamer Jeremy Parish, longtime games journalist and Legends fan, has written a new retrospective focusing on The Misadventures of Tron Bonne.

Mr. Parish sets the tone of the article by recalling the late 90's as a time when the Mega Man series was insanely active, with a ton of games released yearly that solidified the franchise's status as a large part of gaming culture. Of those Misadventures seemed almost out of place with its focus on the Bonnes instead of typical hero Mega Man- but the game quickly wins you over with its charmingly well-written characters, as well as the sheer variety of different styles of gameplay missions and overall cheerful atmosphere (largely due to the adorable Servbots).

In the course of the retrospective, Mr. Parish rightly calls the game a "spinoff of a spinoff", which almost sounds like a criticism, but Misadventures instead proves to be a very enjoyable title. He proposes that the game is a shining example of Capcom's best, a showcase of what the company can do when they put maximum effort into their games even when facing the limits of a modest budget.

If you have fond memories of Misadventures, or just want to learn more about it, then I recommend giving this article a read.
