Mega Man V is the fifth and final classic Mega Man game on the Game Boy. It makes several strong deviations from the previous Game Boy games. Instead of fighting Robot Masters from the NES Mega Man games, Mega Man fights a brand new group of bosses known as the Stardroids. Like the previous Game Boy games, only four stages can be accessed from the start, and beating them grants access to a middle stage, followed by four more stages before facing Terra (the leader of the Stardroids), and concluding with a final stage that leads to a battle against Dr. Wily. Instead of the Mega Buster, Mega Man's primary weapon is the Mega Arm, and he is given an additional companion in the form of Tango. Finally, although Dr. Wily is proven to be responsible for the game's events, the final boss is not Dr. Wily himself.
Representation in MaGMML[edit]
While the game completely lacked representation in Make a Good Mega Man Level and received minimal representation in Make a Good Mega Man Level 2, Mega Man V was given immense amounts of representation in Make a Good Mega Man Level 3, to the point where every single enemy and midboss from the game is present in the third contest's devkit.

Gimmicks[edit]
- All of the Stardroids (with the sole exception of Terra) appear as NPCs in the various hubs of MaGMML2. Venus and Saturn also make appearances as NPCs in Make a Good Mega Man Level: Episode Zero.
- Tango appears as an NPC in MaGMML1, the remake of said game, and MaGMML2. In all three games, he is found in the exact same spot within Dr. Light's Lab, sound asleep.
- The Wily Star II from MaGMML2 is a direct upgrade of the Wily Star from this game.
- Terra is set to appear in MaGMML3 as the end boss of the game's Robot Master Arena. During his fight, he uses the four crystals hidden in Mega Man V's second set of stages as a power-up.
