Played this in 5-6th grade. I was the oldest in my family. We were pretty poor, but we shared and took turns. Came home from school, did homework, played games till mom got home. This was our favorite game by far to play as a family. You pass it to the next person when you either beat a stage or died. Now everyone's all grown up with their own family and jobs. Priceless memories, priceless soundtracks, and a legendary game. Nothing can ever replace any of those things.

Good luck. I still have my SNES too. Tried to buy Chrono Trigger...cost about $90.

[@TyTimeIsAwesome]

***** Chrono Trigger or MMX? Both games are good, but I would recommend CT. It is one of the best games of all time and the soundtrack still cannot be beat today. CT is about $90 without box. MMX will probably cost ya around the same.

Hey, guys! I made a list of who composed and arranged what in this great game! I got the information from Capcom Database. Here it is: Toshihiko Horiyama - Password Yuko Takehara - Boomer Kuwanger Stage Yuki Iwai - Icy Penguino Stage Makoto Tomozawa - Spark Mandriller Stage & Storm Eagleed Stage Setsuo Yamamoto - All the rest Those guys are great! Their music is very inspiring! My personal favorite is Setsuo Yamamoto because I like his Heavy Metal/Hard Rock style! I admire those composers so much! They have a great sense for melody! By the way, Toshihiko Horiyama also composed the songs for the Demon's Crest video game, another one of my favorite video games!

DKC2 is

[@certifiedbfdifan]

in Mega Man Xtreme, you can just hold onto the left wall and shoot him. If the hands open at your position, you can jump off at the right moment and then grab the wall again and keep shooting. Mega Man X is similar, only you should use hadouken or rolling shield and stand on the hands. When they open, grab the wall. If they open next to the wall, get off and get back on when they finish. I recommend having at least one halfway full sub tank on you.

[@certifiedbfdifan]

in mega man xtreme just use autocharge with mega buster and sigma is easy peasy anyway expect it to take you a few tries (in mega man x atleast) as it took me like 20 even with that strategy in mega man xtreme the ai is so dumb most of the time you just hang on the wall shoot him with full charge shot charge again and repeat

Oh my god, the memories!! Love it! It was such an amazing time! I wish I was a kid again :(

[@stygiann]

I'm 100% convinced on the fact that when it comes to 16-bit soundtracks, no other game compares to this. Not even the other X games.

[@stygiann]

@Psycho Mantis dude we should legit make like a discord or something you're cool af

[@lonelywolf140]

Well when it comes to 16-bit sound tracks I personally think that x2 was a more superior with x1 following closely behind

[@lordofhostsappreciator3075]

Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana/Trials of Mana and Final Fantasy 6, maybe even Terranigma.

[@Pan_Z]

I'm 100% convinced you should listen to other 16-bit titles. Chrono Trigger, Terranigma, Streets of Rage, Sonic the Hedgehog, Donkey Kong Country, Castlevania to name a few.

[@stygiann]

@Psycho Mantis Hi dude! I didn't have a PC at the time but I just sent you a request. picklesamurai#6841 is my discord. :)

[@AnAdorableWombat1]

You know the music is good when a video game soundtrack has over 4.1 million views!

[@travisscott9057]

Spark Mandrill, Storm Eagle and Flame Mammoth stages were bangers for sure. Definitely one of my favorite soundtracks of all time!

[@truthseeker508]

The tech back then wasnt so high and still they managed to create masterpieces such as this, never gets old and...

[@cloudbusting_]

SIGMA STAGE 1 IS POSSIBLY THE MOST EPIC SNES JAM OF ALL TIME-SUCH GOAT

[@demiandc2495]

I agree with you, epic track!

[@jean-claude5965]

You have to overcome all the stages, all the way to Sigma Stage 2, to discover one of the finest BGM in VG history 28:07 magic !

[@johanoberg1157]

One of the perfect video game soundtracks. Even the password tune is great here

[@Norwegianoiler]

Unironically, this is quality pump-you-up music.

[@MrMGR1986]

Storm Eagle for the win.

[@JuanCruz-cb1lf]

I don't know...spark mandrill is a good one

[@BlogCasualetions]

Juan Cruz Storm eagle lml

[@tha_tguy_]

What about Boomer Kuwanger....

[@gi_nattak]

Boomer is cool. I think Storm Eagle has the edge over him though with his high energy rocking song. I think if anything Spark Mandrill is a closer match in terms of song awesomeness. ;)

[@ThePhoenix1255]

Listening to the whole OST seems like a big win to me.

[@JLK5241]

Tbh really is one of the best OSTs to this day.

[@erikdelgado3609]

Damn this soundtrack is fucking perfect from start to finish. 🔥🔥🔥

[@maxshabazz1543]

It’s literal perfection. Not a single bad song.

[@xSayPleasex]

17:44 Is GODMODE. That Guitar!!! Listen to that DRUM OUTRO, omg!

[@crazedlucidityzero]

Just think. Except for souls games, this sort of commitment in making a masterpiece is almost lost, by greed and not caring. The end times of the gaming industry is upon us unless we make a stand and stop these money hungry monsters.

[@kitsinthewebs222]

Yo, this song is really good...

[@victorcastillo1386]

Listen to the first 20 seconds of “Rising From Ruins” by Judas Priest. Sounds so similar to the Spark Mandrill’s theme.

[@KeMeEscupaUnPollo]

@@crazedlucidityzero You clearly did not play Half Life Alyx

[@ondgaku271]

Armored Armadillo's theme is so kickass it shouldn't be legal.

[@deadstar44]

It's crazy fun.

[@inciniumz4671]

Indeed. I loved his theme. Very distinct, and kinda bummed there aren't more unique tracks like it out in X-dom.

[@johnces1670]

Amazing, my favorite.

[@alexanderestrada2]

Thanks for uploading this man. Cheers!

[@matthieurappeneau4027]

just played Mega man X on the mini SNES classic edition and wow...

[@smaaash67]

Yes I know!!!

[@anleshi7044]

TODAS las canciones de este juego son increíbles dios mío.

[@innoc4063]

I don't want to sound nostalgia driven but this X had the overall best music, especially the intro stage track. To me, it perfectly captures what the X series was and how it was different from the classic series.

[@187Wretched]

It's not nostalgia driven, I never had a SNES. I grew up with the PSX titles and used to think X4 was the superior OST but now after assessing all their respective soundtracks this one takes the cake, every single song is freaking catchy and memorable and the sound palette they used for this one has a lot more variety, X2 and X3 seem to share the exact same synths & drums. I know that all the Megaman X soundtracks are inspired by Metal but this is the only one where it was actually similar to classic heavy metal where as X2 is more thrash and X3 is alot more grunge metal sounding, probably because of the popularity of the sub-genre during the early-mid 90's. This is just one of those soundtracks where there just isn't really any weak songs it's perfect... and this isn't coming from any Nostalgia at all.

[@daniel-the-raccoon4494]

my dad and i just spent all day yesterday downloading nes/snes games onto his computer, so ofc we got all the megaman games :) favorite game series of all time, can’t believe how relentless these games are though XD

[@spicymeatballs2thespicening]

Is it weird that it was tough but I had a crush on X so I was determined to keep going

[@daniel-the-raccoon4494]

@@spicymeatballs2thespicening not at all! i only continued because zero was like, “i know you can do it, x!” and it gave me courage.

[@CadetGriffin]

I remember playing this game on the PSP, and the Flame Mammoth theme was and still is my most favorite music from it.

[@Rokadan_]

+mareo broter But it's the hardest and the raging game in all of mega man

[@CadetGriffin]

mareo broter I played Mega Man X on the PSP. The level creator only allowed up to 15 things. It was fun, especially the music. I played LittleBigPlanet 3 on the PS3. Create mode is amazing. 'Even Bosses Wear Hats Sometimes' was as hard to me as 'King Stage 2' was to you, I got as mad as I was when trying to get through the obstacles of the first LBP, especially The Bunker. I beat EBWHS by muting it in the Toggle & Swoop parts, just so I could hear Newton say "I'm allergic to drowning!". I played Minecraft on the Xbox 360, it felt good. I played Minecraft on the computer, it was good. I played it on the iPad, not as good as the computer version.

[@CorpIHAMN]

Despues De mucho tiempo mi hijo desempolvo la snes y volvi a escuchar ese sonido queria llorar.... 1995_2019

[@ccollalto]

IMO this is the best OST of the whole series, easily TOP5 on the SNES era and one of the best of all time. Few songs of any era are as remarkable and identifiable as Armored Armadillo's. Fantastic talent from these guys, true gods of their art.

[@Havoc_Unlimited]

I never played this game, my brother did 15-20 years ago!!. I had an ear worm as I was drifting to sleep...with a vague melody. Couldn’t sleep, so I started searching old NES games trying to find the song... and here I found it! Armored Armadillo stage.... Thanks for the nostalgia and for having this video up!

[@kelluked]

The Password/ Game Over music fills me with nostalgic feelings of frustration, disappointment and failure. Ahh those were the days

[@barockmanobama2151]

Hey i didn't make comment here? This game, this soundtrack, oh boy. I don't know why i just keep coming back to this game every damn time. As a Mega Man fan i can say that this game is amazing. Sure the level design is a bit simple but it was the first game in the series.

[@IBroLLyISePhIrOtH]

yeah

[@BusaLova]

Great games have a certain appeal that hooks itself in your mind and never lets go. You have to return every once in a while to satisfy that one itch. I get the same with Super Metroid and Link to the Past.

[@Fictionarious]

I think armored armadillo might be my ultimate favorite here, but it's so hard to choose. It's just so damn jazzy and captures the spirit of "rolling forward without any brakes" so well.

[@maxshabazz1543]

Man.. I cannot even describe armored armadillo’s theme. It’s the most unique song in a game filled with bangers. Armadillo is also my favorite for sure. It’s simply put magic

[@PKSkyler]

Sigma's initial stage select is incredibly clever. I remember thinking, "Okay, it's about to get serious."

[@lifeishectec]

Also HOLY SHIT FLAME MAMMOTHS THEME also HOLY SHIT THIS ENTIRE SOUNDTRACK.

[@ohno1822]

Two words. Spark Mandrill

[@joshclossick5710]

The first game I ever played. I was 4 and to this day this is my favorite franchise

[@andrewnagengast2349]

Never really noticed how badass the end boss song is (Sigma 2nd). was always full of anxiety and in a different mindset of concentration to try and take out Sigma before the E-Tanks were emptied lol. This soundtrack was awesome.

[@kuskus_th13]

I remember making it to sigma 2nd a few months ago, was about to beat this game for the first time. I was like: "YEAH I BEAT IT" then I see sigma's head and this song plays I had only 1 sub tank got my ass kicked

[@MegaPhilX]

Paaaasssword theeeeeme! So awesome! I could listen to it for hours. This one and the one from Mega Man 3 are amazing.

[@mhstarcraft8612]

Quite possibly the best password screen ever as well.

[@douglasmandella8413]

Whoever orchestrated this soundtrack is a genius. Not to mention that the game itself is still, to this day, one of the best side scroller platformers ever made. This game was, is, and forever will be of the highest standard. Top quality.

[@reitsu6767]

Storm Eagle Stage (19:38) 13 hours of paperwork and remembered this soundtrack, my momentum started to rise all over again.^_^. DONE....

Was, is and always will be my favorite Megaman game.

I like that even the password music ins unnecessarily good

[@thrillhouse_vanhouten]

Real talk: I want the credits music at 38:42 to play at my funeral.

[@kipritchie3870]

I'd probably get the X one because of my past history (huge Megaman fan since age 3 and all of my family and friends know it). I think the Illusion of Gaia one would be the perfect wedding song. I can see a lovely couple walking the aisle to the intro. Too bad I'm already married... Should have thought of this earlier...

[@digimikeh]

THRILLHO And when you are being killed: 33:12 !
