Fun Fact: The only reason this game was made was to prove the SNES (Super Famicom) can make a game like Megaman 8 on that system. Seriously the developers actually said "Megaman 8 should have been on SNES and we will prove it".

[@LavaCreeperPeople]

yeah i wish it was executed better, though

[@basedseraph4965]

@@LavaCreeperPeople Yes, I wish they didn't reuse the sound effects from Megaman 7, and introduced new sounds effects. I also think they should have made two new Robot masters instead of reusing Astro man and Tengu man. And, lastly toning down a little on the difficulty. Megaman and Bass felt like it was a Kiazo hack of a Megaman game.

[@panthekirb7561]

@@basedseraph4965 Its a shame because imo it needed minimal tweaking to be a top tier mega man game. Less tweaking than MM8 needs thats for sure. Though MMB is far from kaizo. I actually think its easier than MM9.

[@basedseraph4965]

@@panthekirb7561 That's because you are very good at Megaman games. A casual player coming from games like Megaman 2 and 3 are going to struggle with MMB. There was so many difficult jumps and unfair enemy placement in Megaman and Bass. I do agree that Megaman 9 was no walk in the park either.

[@josephwj7199]

@@panthekirb7561 Agreed that overall MM&B is not as hard as everyone's making it out to be. I had a harder time with 9 and 10, for example. It has to be played differently than a traditional classic MM game; especially if playing as Mega Man.

Mega Man 8 for super players... if you don't choose Bass. Some compare it to Mega Man X6 but aside from the checkpointing in the King stages I found it much better-balanced. I like how the CD collection includes Game Boy-only characters like Enker and Sunstar.

Love the hard work and effort that went into this video, the voice acting, memes and appreciation for this underrated gem of game.

[@heartnet40]

Megaman and Bass might be my favorite Classic Megaman game. As I've gotten better at the platforming, I've come to really not enjoy Bass as much as I used to because his combat is generally much worse than Megaman's. Although, he is easily at his best at Magicman's stage since his buster shot is fun to use against all the enemy spawns. It's gotta be one of the most bumpin' Classic game too; I love the OST's for the SNES and GBA versions of this game. It's not very often that you find adapted OSTs that end up being as good of a listen to as the orignal. Especially coming off of Megaman X3 and the SNES's less good version of the OST.
