Pixel interpolation filter..

Those stats on the right are pretty nice additions :)

I love how every video on this channel currently has "1 year ago" like, someone just made 9 videos, left, and decided not to elaborate further. (I'm not forcing them to go back, I just find this particular hiatus to be sorta funny.)

23:48 Mega Man on DOS had Shark Man.

Sadly in BN4 and I hate to say it, the game will force you to use dark chips during the fight with shademan, so it's impossible to beat BN4 with buster shot only

Can you do BN2 buster only on hard mode|?

lol I thought every chip in this game are banned in this challenge, well fair enough then

Once you later upgrade the megabuster, it will become the freaking machine gun, half charged shot will deal 40 Damage and full charged shot will deal twich damage as half charged shot dos

I have a challenge if you are up to it. You have beaten the games with just a mega buster but can you beat the games without changing your folder or without moving in battle?

On the difficulty spike with the Heel Navis, I definitely felt that spike too. And I was using Battle Chips, but I just hadn't done enough grinding to get better chips or formed any real combos or strategy. Thanks for uploading!

I know this is an old video but the extra machine at the end ( 1:09:49 ) is NOT a deus ex machina. It was supposed to hold Beastmans operator who gets killed off in a cutscene after his failure to defeat megaman twice

This is super late, but I gotta say that Desertman was ONLY a pain in the ass because of the Wood Element. Had CC been give a Heat or Aqua element, Desertman would be a breeze

3 11-year-olds and one 8-9 year-old so yeah. Chris Hansen wants this man to have a seat.

I felt a actual sense of relief when you got Heat Guts style. definitely helps with some battles.

I think woodguts is almost certainly the worst form for this challenge. Kudos for trying it with the clunkiest form possible. I'm pretty sure it goes Elec > Fire = Aqua > Wood For charge shots in buster only. You really need chips to lock up as close in on your opponent if you want to hit with the twister

You can beat Bass several ways without chips. You can trade for extra programs to get your attack higher, and with a lv5 buster x2, and a set grass program, you can deal exactly 200 damage with a flame charge shot.

So it's impossible to be this game without battle chips lol.

Mystery Diamonds lol. That took me back. I’m glad I’m not the only one that strayed away from the true name. I used to say Data Diamonds lol.

you can, and i know this because my friend and i used to play this game all the time when we were kids, and one day his L and R triggers stopped working. he was able to use chips on his first turn, and then once they were all used up he was on his own, lol. i imagine you could beat the twin viruses if you had aqua guts style. line them up horizontally and then blast them w the charge shot. it hits one panel behind, so they'll die simultaneously. desertman would also be much less painful. wood guts is literally only good for fighting alpha, probably.

Ele ball is not random. They travel diagonally and stop if they land in front-facing you.

In Legacy Collection, it IS possible to beat all 6 BN games with just the buster. Just enable Max Buster, and increase your attack power with power ups(BN1&2) or Attack+ programs(BN3-6) and you’re good to go. Buster Max multiplies your buster’s power by 100x your current attack power. B button power attack is unaffected.

Frankly, I feel like the spirit of the challenge is to flex how powerful you can make a buster-only run become rather than arbitrarily handicap yourself by not using things like mod tools or patch cards available in the legacy collection. I would rather see how wide open you can break the game rather than stress yourself out for the sake of youtube videos.

japanman is a lie. he's really yamatoman

Now wuth buster max on the legacy collection this would probably be really easy.

Late for the party but hub batch's hp cut can be circumvented with bug stop and that way the program is really fun to use

I remember being a kid and being stuck on quickman for ages. I beat him finally on a trip to target with my step mom and I was in pure ecstasy mode and she was like “that’s great bud! *awkward smile*” good times.

This is amazing. I know it was almost a year ago now, but i truly hope you have more in store for us!

the navi customizer is a great addition but the way they use it in MB3 is a bit of a pain to use, specially with those force story's chip, they are not exactly small so they can took a lot of space. Also, rather odd that Lan has emotional crisis in this one since it is pretty common for Navi to get deleted but they can be revive if they have back-up which the bad guy did many times in previous games too.

There is a very good reason people don't know Lan saved the world. People who are underage, or are not proper authorities, cannot take credit for vigilantism. Saving the universe if you aren't wearing a badge at the time, is a big no-no, in japan. They'll sooner throw the hero in jail for the crime, than allow them to be credited with saving people. and they'll do so, even if there is irrefutable evidence that the person is a hero. A perfect example is in the MHA anime with the fight with Stained. Despite being in the equivalent of police academy, the heroes are told that either they can take credit and be put on trial, or they can shut the fuck up and let the police proper take credit, despite the fact the video is everywhere.

Where’ve you been man? Everything okay?

Very cool video.

Pretty interesting video definetly watching it later!

1:04:10 Technically speaking, you could've just grinded out 100 battles to change your guts style element, which would be the legitimate way to deal with this. It isn't a softlock. Considering how grindy it would've been to do that, though, I'm fine with this. Not what I would let myself do (since I'm apparently a masochist), but I'm glad you can.

Do you think this challenge will help me achieve the Guts Style Easily?

Fundamentally MMBN is supposed to be a social game where you discover cool codes, earn rare chips to trade, and battle your friends. Unfortunately with it being on the GBA system you're heavily restricted by your zip code. However, with the advent of the internet it just streamlines that process. Sure you don't get the same social excitement from hearing about a super cool secret from your friend group, but you get the infinite collective power of the internet.

Who's gonna tell him that Japanman is actually Yamatoman from Megaman 6 Eh, good vid regardless of that

Awesome!!!

Also when fighting the Numbers security viruses in secret area, you *must* delete them in numerical sequence (1-3) and in a single hit just like with Bass's lifeaura. If two or more have the same number, they *must be deleted simultaneously.* Chips are a requirement for these enemies as they act like a firewall. Also, the AntiDamage extra code via mod tools, just like its NaviCust program (NCP) requires the input (B + ←) upon being attacked or it will not activate. This NCP is exclusive to Shadow style MegaMan (just like how Super Armor Break Charge and Break Buster are for Guts style) and is only rewarded after levelling up shadow style to Level 4, so the above mod tools option is the only available option without more cheats. This also means the Shadow virus is not a chip requirement enemy unlike the Numbers mentioned above. Remember that the stronger extra codes for mod tools WILL cause bugs. Bugs include: HP Drain bug, Cust HP bug (drain on custom menu), Panel Change bug, Forced Movement bug, various Buster bugs including firing blanks, Modified Buster Shot bugs, and Support bug (First Barrier, or temp Invincibility).

OK, just wanna clarify things but before that, you're not cheating using the "Mod Tools" as it is a in-game mechanic exclusive to BN3. They're essentially the proto Mod Cards that would appear in the next 3 games. "Technically", getting HeatGuts style is a result of trading styles like you would in BN2 with a friend. Now to clarify: the "Yoko" area is actually called "Yoka", ProtoMan appeared much earlier in the game during the 2nd test for the N1 Grand Prix. I'm sure someone had an answer about the empty PT machine in the final room of Wily's lair. Inukai, BeastMan's NetOp/Operator, was off-screen merc'd... however, Battle Chip Challenge would show that he survived along with another Gospel member who was also merc'd via briefcase. Finally, JapanMan is actually known as YamatoMan in the JP release of Rockman.EXE 3 reflecting his classic robot master counterpart but light blue in color. That was probably was done to save on text space, but their signature spear weapons are 1 to 1 identical. Honestly, with the text limitations, his name would have fit in as "YamatoMn" since it would fill the 8 letter limit shown in the top right as you first start the battle with him (and his V2-V3 iterations to get his chip) as well as other viruses and bosses. There is no V4 version as his V4 chip, as well as for other boss navis, are exclusive to Team style MegaMan and *must* be equipped before battle to get their V4 chip. Not that this will impede the buster only run, you'll have to defeat all the V3 navis in under 20 seconds to receive their V4 chips... or use the bugfrag trader but it is VERY frugal about dropping V4 chips. That aside, this buster only challenge run is great.

Why are you using the sprite filter :(

Can't wait for 5 The double soul system would add alot more charge attacks

Yes

I know I’m late but you should continue what you’re doing.😊

There's a little bit of nuance to the KingMan fight, namely his "Plan B" technique. It has different effects based on how you've been acting in the fight. Using Wind attacks to push his Pawns away or making holes to drop his Knight off the field will result in him swapping a Pawn for another Knight, and he'll continuously respawn Knights that you drop into holes. Hugging the back column will trigger his Area Grab and moving the Pawns forward. If you keep breaking his pieces (either with Break chips or with the BreakCharge NaviCust program that a guy in the lobby gives you), he'll spawn a Rook with a ton of HP to continuously guard him. If you're lucky and get an Aqua or Fire style, you can take advantage of their piercing charge shot against his Rook Plan B, but other elements don't have that advantage.

I might check out the first bn game after watching this.

Late to the party but its fun watching all this BN content after revisiting the Legacy Collection myself. In case you were curious, im in the camp of any Mod Tools are on the table. Its not your fault the devs handicapped HP+700 with an irrelevant downside, challenge runs should always look to exploit what they can.

Actually, funny thing about Shark Man. There is an actual Shark Man robot master. He's in Mega Man 3 for the MS Dos. Though he wasn't designed by any of the classic Mega Man staff, so there is that.

Overlay more like over slay! (Its cool :))
