World IV is straight-up one of my favorite games in the franchise.

Megaman World 3 in general has difficulty cranked up to 11 and that's what always annoys me. So everybody hates on World 2 saying that it's bad because it's way too easy, has bad music and sprites. And while those are issues for sure, it's like everybody forgets that World 3 has a bigger problem with its DIABOLICAL difficulty. But nooooo everyone forgives World 3, because everyone uses Rewind and Save States. Well how about you try completing this game WITHOUT those sweet tools? A totally different experience.

Dr. Wily's revenge was my first classic Mega Man game. Like, it was so early in my Mega Man Fandom that I didn't know Mega Man and Mega Man X were different characters. I bought this game at Wal-Mart when I was a kid and assumed I would have all of X's abilities like dashing and wall-jumping. Boy, was I in for a surprise. Never beat it until it came out on 3DS back in the day.

[@jonesthemoblin1400]

I think I learned the difference between the characters when I saw the Ruby Spears Mega Man episode "Mega X". Up until then, I honestly thought I was watching the same character I was playing on the SNES and was VERY confused why Zero (protoman) was working with the bad guy.

[@thomasjohnston9795]

Having played Megaman V now instantly in top 5 Megaman games for me I did all the Megaman GB in order when they came out on NSO and enjoyed them, especially 3 and 4, but V being such a tight enjoyable game, especially with the new buster and shop. I enjoy GB VI and V more than the Nes versions

I'm pretty sure someone else in the comments already brought this topic, but apparently, the reason why the pitch in Mega Man World 2 is so annoyingly high is because of a bug that makes it like 12 octaves high.

Yeah, my tastes do not align with this review because even though I played the NES games I’ve always wanted to have these because of their unique take on everything. Even MMII. They were shorter games, but they had to be. They were made to be played on the go. For titles that were “unremarkable” Capcom sure as hell seemed to like a LOT of the ideas as starting as early as Mega Man 6 on NES you started seeing elements from the Game Boy games making appearances. MM7’s shop was a complete nod to the GB games, and so was its game structure. Same could be said for MM8.

It would be a retcon because, if it is now official (no one here has actually said it is yet), then it most likely came about because someone at Capcom finally remembered Quint from Mwga Man II and was all "Oh, we could use that to explain where the original Mega Man went by the time of Mega Man X." Which still wouldn't explain what happened to almost *everyone else* in the future.

[@MeteoXavier]

Mega Man World 2, like others have said here, was done by a different developer and CAPCOM apparently rushed to get it out for the holiday season; that's why the game is problematic. They probably thought that because they were just carrying a bunch of stuff over from already existing games (NES Mega Mans and GB Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge) it would cut down on production time. They learned through experience it doesn't work that way. All things considered, I think the game gets shit on more than it really deserves - it's not THAT bad - and the music problem in that game is also a bug. There are ROM patches for it that fix the pitch so you can tell it wasn't supposed to come out that way. Not a quality Mega Man game, but one that suffered from problems outside their control rather than straight up incompetence.

[@Jaymonius]

Rob Man would like to have a word with you about Megaman 2, especially the songs

[@costby1105]

Megaman World 1, 3, 4, 5, Wily Wars and X3 were developed by Minakuchi Engineering. Biox developed Mega Man World 2 but due to poor reception Capcom didn't rehire them. Inafune actually like Punk so much that he personally designed Punk.exe. Punk.EXE is the only navi used by Mr Famous to not be designed by Fans. Those Navis instead were used later in the game.

*Thinking Rabbit developed World 2. No, I'm not joking.

I'm surprised the Gameboy versions weren't included in the collection a few years ago.

[@chronossage]

Capcom once announced a colorized collection on the GBA back in the day that got canceled.

[@Darknight0681]

@@chocolocojames213 Capcom just seems to not acknowledge them for whatever reason.

Whats worse, Castlevania on gameboy or Mega Man 2 on gameboy

I guess we're not going to critique the ridiculous rarity of healing energy drops in these games?

[@darkman3645]

So the footage for V is using the DX hack it would seem. Which is fine because its a fantastic hack, but it doesn't reflect what people would play on NSO. Either way the thoughts on 1&2 are mostly accurate, but 3&4 I definitely disagree on.

Alternate title of the video: "The reason why I don't like rewind function". I don't wanna ramble or start a debate here on what game is better or worse, so I'll just say this... Try playing these games WITHOUT rewind function and THEN tell us about your experience. And that's not even a reproach. I am genuine here in thinking you deffinitely should try playing without rewind. That will be a COMPLETELY different experience. Not to mention, I'm really curious if your opinion on Megeman World 2 being the worst will still stand, cause without that sweet-sweet Rewind... Oh boy, 1 and 3 might ruffle your feathers)))

Gonna be honest...i played the heck out of 2...way too much. I loved it. I don't know if i was ignorant stupid or slow. Maybe all of them

Let me explain the timeline of these games realeses for the those who dont know. Mega Man I or a.k.a dr. Wilys revenge came out on July 26, 1991 that were made by a third party company named Minicuchi Engineering. After the somwhat succses of Mega Man I, Capcom that thay it was not the best that tge Mega Man handheld exsperiance vould get, so right after this they got another third party company named thinking rabbit to make Mega Man II and then release it on December 20, 1991. After the failure and terribleness of Mega Man II, Capcom notified Minicuchi Engineering that thier work could possibly be used again for Mega Man III. They then realesed the Game on December 11, 1992 and after Capcom saw that thier work was very polished, they kept Minicuchi to make Mega Man IV, which came out October 29, 1993, Mega Man V, which came out July 22, 1994, and even Mega Man X3 on December 1, 1995. The thought of letting other companies make Mega Man games did give nightmares to some of the developers but they seemed to be soon proven wrong. But unfortunatly, in the early 2000s' Minicuchi felt like they where too uncreditied to make more games and so they quietly shut thier bussines down and they were never heard of ever again.....
