Trivia:
Andrew Kavadas, who voiced vampire hunter Simon Belmont in this series, would go on to play the father of a Vampire in Underworld: Evolution (2006). more
Goofs:
Continuity: The energy on Kevin's Power Pad is the source of many errors. In the first few episodes, extra care is taken in showing how much energy he has remaining, and a green lit square vanishes when a "unit" of power is used up, or so we are led to believe. In subsequent episodes (in most cases), energy NEVER disappears from the meter, yet he ends up running out of power despite this. Another error stemming from this is in Metroid Sweet Metroid when Kevin goes to use it to paint the wall. His power is dead, yet one unit APPEARS on it when he uses it. more
Quotes:
Princess Lana: I'm Princess Lana.
Kevin Keene: I'm in love. Uh, I mean I'm Kevin.

This was a really stupid show..., 22 May 2003
Author: burningtyphoon from United States

Why did they have to ruin those video game characters like that. Geez!!! None of them looked they way were suppose to look. I'm a HUGE Megaman fan and it was insulting to see what they did to him. Since when was Megaman actually a Bobby Hill look-a-like wearing green spandex?! Who in the world is Megagirl?!!!? She hasn't appeared in ANY of the Original Megaman series games or any other series for that matter (and don't you dare say that Megagirl is Roll!!!!!) Plus Dr. Light looks like a stupid little troll and the same goes for Dr. Wily. Simon was a completely vain and stuck-up (he's suppose to be cool, casual, and quiet...) The only convincing character design was Mother Brain. The storyline is very corny. A teenage boy named Kevin Keene goes to a place called Videoland... blah, blah, blah... meets up with video game characters... yada, yada, yada... Kevin goes there to save Videoland. he end... coooooorny. I know this was made back in 1989, but there's still no excuse for slaughtering video game characters like that. I hope there isn't a Japanese dub for this show, because that would be embarrassing for Japan to see Rockman (A.K.A Megaman's name in Japan) look like that stupid little "green" runt. He's suppose to be blue, not green!!! "Mega" this and "Mega" that... give me a damn break.

OVERALL Negative 1,000 out of 10. I'm sorry. I was just joking... Negative 999 out of 10!!!!
