Mega Man X - Chill Penguin's Stage

[@robertlauncher]

I know everyone praises this ost to no end, but this really is the game that made me realize I like video game music. Every track is a banger. Every single one, like whoever composed this just couldn’t let a single song be anything less than pure energetic bliss.

[@MutekiRarus]

Ah, Chill Penguin...back when I was fairly new to gaming, I was so thrilled at my ability to flawlessly dodge all his attacks, that I actually wrote down my strategies in the back of the instruction book.

[@aibj9009]

Oh wow!That is a nice hook

[@kyokennedy5334]

Jorge Aviles I know, right!?

[@flyforce16]

Now kick off those dash boots, I got Hoodie Cobra and Bong Raccoon coming over later. We're gonna watch Big Lebowski on my dad's flat screen

Man I love that hook! So chill.

[@SwerveStarEx]

You know, the whole "double damage from an uncharged shot while dashing" thing actually makes a little sense, since the shot has more momentum behind it.

[@kidwaryodproduction]

Very interesting point 🙂👍

[@izzypleb6306]

Dude... I had trouble with this boss, and it's the easiest one in the game... but, the good news is, I FINALLY BEAT IT!

[@izzypleb6306]

Then again, I have never played any mega man game before, mega man x is the first mega man game I have ever played

[@MasterChief-tn3iv]

Wow just wow

[@Tailbiter231]

@@izzypleb6306 I tried them recently but though I did beat the Robot Masters of 2 and two of them in 3 (making use of Rewind function on Switch), they're way too hard so I was recommended X series, which is noticeably easier but still I can't beat him and I know he's supposed to be super-easy.

[@seanpeacock9123]

You're not the only one. This was also my first Mega Man game. After many tries, I left and went to Storm Eagle's stage with the leg piece, beat him, and came back later and beat Chill Penguin with Fire Wave. That's the next best strategy if you lose to Chill Penguin. Storm Eagle which is easy with the leg power up, Flame Mammoth, Chill Penguin...

[@Megadoomable]

Nice, this game was my childhood. I beat the game recently.

MAVERICK DATA Subject: Chill Penguin Title: Lord of the Snowy Plains Occupation Prior to Going Maverick: Lieutenant Colonel of the Maverick Hunters' 13th Polar Battalion Unit Bio: Chill Penguin was originally assigned to a base in Antarctica, a assignment he finds boring. He was all too eager to join Sigma's newly formed 17th Elite Unit. He was also eager to join Sigma's rebellion, thinking it's more profitable. After joining Sigma, Penguin was then assign to a abandoned missile base in the snowy mountain overlooking Abel City. Most likely he is planning to trigger an avalanche by detonating all the missiles stored there. During battle, Penguin uses his icy breath to create decoys to draw enemy fire while he launches sneak attacks with Shotgun Ice.

I must suck at Megaman Games i just played this level last night and it was not easy at all lol

[@antech9986]

Well this game is supposed to last long, which is why its so hard, so you practice more

[@sinclairguess1187]

True Especially when you play it using emulator......

[@namelessxdread]

Could be lag if playing on an emulator or on HDTV

[@Tailbiter231]

Same. I got to him today but I can't even beat him, as I can't tell what attack he's going to use and react fast enough to dodge them. (Plus by the time I reach him my health is depleted from those snowballs, so with two lives I only have one shot at fighting him with full health before game over) I know he's supposed to be super easy so it's probably not the game, it's me, I suck donkey-rooster at 2D shooter games. And 3D shooter games, except Remnant, Tomb Raider Legend, and Tomb Raider Anniversary. If I do get past him... how do I know which stage is what? Unlike in X2, they're not named when you put the select bar over them, only when you actually select and go there. I only picked out Chill Penguin (widely recommended first stage) because he's the only one who looks like a penguin.

[@matioliravioli2333]

@@Tailbiter231 if you select one of the corners from the select stage it will tell you the name of the boss

Am I the only one who is struggling in this game? Can't beat one boss.

[@elusivegrain9162]

gamegeekx Storm eagle was a bit difficult for me at first but once I got the dash & understood his pattern it was easy.

Same here bro the bosses are hard asf!

[@MotoJoee]

This guy beats this boss in one go... I’ve played it now ten times and died every time.

[@atomiswave1971]

@@MotoJoee I beat the penguin once. But mainly because his attack repeated in a way that was easy. The reason this video makes it look easy is one, I think they have auto fire and also everything seems to die easier in this video, you just shoot and blows up.

[@flyforce16]

Dude... just listen to yourself! You're just perpetuating a cycle of robot-on-robot violence!

I had no idea about the dash-shooting glitch, I'll have to try that sometime.

[@stingtheeelthecat983]

4:02 I’m a MEGA MAN

[@LeonHarteTV]

The dashing and firing to inflict double damage was a programming error in the first game; but in the X games to follow, it was programmed intentionally. Just a fun little fact!

[@bibbles8929]

Anyone else ever realize Penguin is in x4 in the Frost Walrus stage? Right when you fight the claw thing, he's frozen in the back

[@PinkKittyRose]

@Dekaar Needless to say I am going to be abusing this damage boost quite often throughout this run... XD There were several bosses I ended up fighting with the buster, so it really helps speed up all of these fights. Helps clear out generic enemies a bit faster, too.

[@silasr20]

The way you shot your buster @0:48 was actually going with the song that was fire 🔥 lol

[@xviilyion1546]

Glad to see I’m not the only one who clicks the bosses to the beat of the title music

[@megamikex8163]

I'M A BIG BOIIIII!!!!

[@deadlypudding]

An interesting point you left out about Chill Penguin is how if he takes damage in midair, he immediately drops back down. It's a bit of a knockback effect on him and stops his wind ability.

[@FDJustin]

So I'm not the only one that selects the stages to the theme. Good to know.

[@Omega068]

I never knew the dash boots had that effect...learn something everyday.

[@riven8351]

This was the first time i played a mega man game and it was amazing. My grandpa has a snes emulator. Unlike any other game i played, this actually required me to use my head and memorize the bosses patterns and get my timing just right. Really challenging but rewarding. I made it to the very final boss when sigmas head is in that lion machine but couldnt finish because i had to come back home. When i first tried this game, every boss destroyed me right away and i thought it would be impossible

[@loopeygoopey]

thats insane tech for a grandpa to have loo

[@ShadowdaHedgie11]

You're going to have to return to this stage to get the heart tank if you're gonna collect all the stuff as per usual.

[@TayoEXE]

This is one of my favorite games ever! I've had it on SNES forever, longer than I've been alive. lol I know this game inside and out . :P And have quite fond memories

I can't believe you're playing Mega Man X, this is my favorite Mega Man game *__*

[@PinkKittyRose]

@maximoluver Yeah, I had not done any recording in quite awhile, so I guess I did not get the settings quite right. Probably got messed up as I think the volume settings I use are different between my weekly broadcast and game recordings.

[@ctye85]

Great video! This is like blowing on Nintendo cartridges, everyone knew to come to Chill Penguin first:)

[@PinkKittyRose]

@OmegaWeaponX25 My main gripe is the game is a helluva lot less fun without this particular power-up, and you have to do a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOT of back-tracking if you want to collect everything if you put off the dash-boots since so many things require them. For those who want to 100% the game with any sort of efficiency whatsoever, this stage is a forced first... XD

[@TomboyGamerGal]

@3:15 Uh Pink, I don't think that's a glitch when you dash and shoot at an enemy the damage increases. I think it was programmed like that.

[@TheFeistyFour6462]

[@ShadowdaHedgie11]

@Voyd211 There is a problem with doing that though. The Storm Tornado might not damage you, neither does him flapping his wings to blow you back but if he does it constantly, 2-3 times in a row, without dashing you WILL get blown off the edge.

[@surfingonluck5976]

i once finished mmx on a phone

[@cheddarcheetah3267]

and it was easy

[@PinkKittyRose]

@Dekaar Nah, I recall in my practice runs that he was only taking 1 damage from uncharged, non-dash boosted shots. Heck, it may be that EVERY boss in the first 3 X games (maybe more) only take 1 from uncharged shots.

[@Peter_1986]

I don't really think of Chill Penguin's stage as a traditional "first stage". Yeah sure, it has an important powerup and it relatively easy, but it just doesn't really _feel_ like a first stage to me. It's very rare that a platformer starts out with a winter stage like this, it's typically a more traditional snow-free area with relatively upbeat music. One example of a traditional "first stage" to me would be Cut Man in "Mega Man 1", or Skull Man in "Mega Man 4".

[@PinkKittyRose]

@FrenchyStarFox Yes... but BARELY... and every bit of difficulty Chill Penguin makes up for as a boss, Toad Man's stage blows out of the water. XD

[@PinkKittyRose]

@IBelisariusLP Did not keep count, but Chill Penguin's the only stage that went super smooth... XD I got too reckless in Storm Eagle by trying to rush... Stages after obtaining Chameleon Sting went pretty smooth, minus the final boss. Gods that boss is a pain to do no damage... XD Tempting as it was to just use the Hadoken, I made sure to resist. And yeah, outtakes also eat up my harddrive space, which my ancient machine has very little of... XD

[@Dekaar]

As far as I know it is that chill penguin always gets at least 2 points of damage from normal buster shots regardless if you charge or not

[@kermitthefrog3775]

Is it just me because this is harder on the snes rather than the collection version?

[@Kevvl14]

@PinkKittyRose Every boss in every game in the X Series takes 1 damage from uncharged buster shots. In fact, they even take the same amount of damage from charge shots -- the differences start coming in X5 and 6 where bosses have different size lifebars. Not to mention the boss health increases overall by a great deal past X4 (as well as the power of charge shots).

[@CLfreak246]

you can't expect me to believe that you can do all stages perfectly in one try. there must some outtakes that happen now and again. you know like taking damage or dying in the stages. be sure to insert any blooper reels at the end of video or after the series

[@helioliskfire5954]

I used to play games to perfection. Replaying them to the point that I was doing no damage speed runs. Haha. I had less games but more fun playing them. This was one of those. I cant remember if I was playing it on GBC or my Nintendo DS.

[@christopherballesteros-cy4tq]

Wish they could of hid the leg armor and make you search for it preferably inside one of those big holes at the end of the stage.

[@speedraser2605]

I got your letter Hannah may. Dad loves you too!

[@zergvsgenin]

You should see the remake of this game, Maverick Hunter X. The dash ability is optional and in Flame Mammoth's stage. To me, it's a fair trade-off since I usually find Mammoth pitifully easy.

[@RathouseFilmworks]

Am i stupid? how is this the obviously intended first stage?

[@amso7169]

Because of the dash. It’s vital

[@thePersonoyt]

3:20 I think is intentional and present in the rest of the series

[@motherplayer]

When I had the Xtreme port of the game on GB, I always faced chill penguin first

[@HyperShadic100]

Shotgun Ice has the bonus of reflecting in 5 different directions when it hits a wall. However I still didn't find it that useful in the game until a ceartin point.

[@NewZen41]

too bad you dont continue to X4. That game has a stage where you basicall carry a ride armor over to a boss fight

Did you know you can stand on the penguin ice sculptures and NOT take damage!? You can even stay on when he moves them!

[@CalebCraft10]

Did you know you can hide in the top corner to charge your beam and hit him when he is exposed, rinse and repeat.

[@coolblackeagle1063]

By exposed, do you mean while he's on the ceiling, creating a blizzard?

[@thetoky1995]

Does anyone else have a hard time exiting the game/stage on the ps2 version? Not sure if its my controller.

[@Voyd211]

I never start with Chill Penguin. I start with Storm Eagle. He's easy enough, and I deal with the lack of dashing for two stages.

[@mxthorne]

With all due respect, playing this as a 6 year old in 1995 is a completely different story in terms of difficulty. This game was a challenge when it came out.

[@vasas2.025]

Does anyone know how to get out of the ride armor?

[@hasards]

@BradX8 Yea, but sting chameleon is easier when you have Boomerang Kuwanger's ability. The armor isn't vital (cept perhaps after you get to sigma's fortress)

Mega Man X: IM A BIG BOY!!!

[@Shirodragoon]

I'm horrible at no damage runs, but I could manage to finish Chill Penguin without taking damage, same with the intro stage, minus the boss. If it weren't for the new picket men in Flame Mammoth's stage I'd be able to do a no damage run there too.

[@williamwhite2568]

Pink I'm not gonna lie I got a game over on chill penguin that was 1st time playing the game

[@ShadowdaHedgie11]

@PinkKittyRose At least you can quit levels halfway through without having to find/buy anything like in Mega Man 7. I found the levels quite enjoyable so I quite enjoyed playing through the levels twice in MMX, and later on, Maverick Hunter X.

[@ClairvoyantDreams358]

Shotgun Ice isn’t useless at all, you can cheese the entire Spark Mandrill fight and Sigma’s dog with it.

[@Dekaar]

@PinkKittyRose just tested it myself... seriously that's strange.. only 1 damage. Well that only shows that the dash actually is way to reliant in the series. I could've sworn that he took always 2 dmg... but wow Means that I never hit him without the dash before the shot cO

[@TheJeppesk]

@PinkKittyRose Haha, yeah that's what I noticed x) Needless to say, I'm very impressed. Even though Chill Penguin's stage isn't very difficult, it has it's moments which really threw me off back when I tried playing this game Roahm-style. Ah well, I'm looking forward to this. Especially those 3 bosses.... Looking at you, Sting Chameleon, Spark Mandrill and Launch Octopus.

[@mikefranciseoccena4393]

Just wondering, what does bltantly mean? x) Enjoying these a lot!

[@UsaSatsui]

@OmegaWeaponX25 You're trying to say "Flame Mammoth stage with instant death lava" is easier than "Flame Mammoth stage with no danger whatsoever"?

[@JadePharaoh]

I'm a bit of a rebel then, Pink. I usually start with Storm Eagle. I don't think he's THAT hard without the dash power-up, and I love getting his Storm Tornado right off the bat. From there I just follow their weaknesses; Flame, Chill, Spark, Armor, Launch, Boomer, Sting. The same can't be said for the PSP remake though; Storm is much harder without dash thanks to the feather arrows he shoots while he's blowing you back; if you get hit by one, you're pretty much screwed.

[@SloppyJoe1100]

It must be my game because my buster does not charge as fast
