as a child playing this in the 80s, I recall this game being a true adventure. I don't how to describe it, nor can I recreate that feeling today when trying to replay it, but boy it was amazing... I think our imagination filled in the gaps of the story and such is all I can figure.

I love you videos! The whole premise of a game review with trivia combined with a full walkthrough is just what I needed! I'm going to be playing through as many of the games you've covered as I can. NES & SNES Classic Minis, Hakchi and ROMs really make retro experience work on modern HD tvs.

Awesome, another Megaman episode! To me, the Megaman franchise has always been about the gameplay and the music equally. I own the soundtracks for all the OG MM titles, as well as, all the Megaman X soundtracks. It's funny that you mentioned the long running debate over which is better between MM2 and MM3, as some friends and I were having a debate over this recently. Though I really don't have a preference to which is better; I enjoy MM3's gameplay more, but MM2's soundtrack the most. Another great episode, thank you for your hard work.

My brother and I couldn’t read the first time we played it, so we would wander around aimlessly, just trying/hoping to find Princess Gwaelin. Whenever a Magician would spawn, we thought he was a thief , lol, and we were afraid he was gonna kill us again. We left the game alone for maybe four years, and then our mother took out the guide books and map that came with the game when she bought it. It was so much simpler then. We knew what to do this time, and after a few weeks, we finally beat the game.

[@GundamBlueDestiny]

My strategy for the 8 Robot Masters in MM3 was always this - Big Loop first (Magnet Man, Hard Man, Top Man, Shadow Man, Spark Man) and then the little loop (Snake Man, Gemini Man, Needle Man). Sure, that meant I didn't get the Rush Jet until dead last, but honestly I was able to get by without it until the Doc Robot stages.

[@jeffb.6642]

One big reason that I enjoyed 2 and 3 over the sequels were the weapon mechanics. It was fun to experiment to see which weapons did the most damage to the enemies and bosses. Each boss had multiple weapons that worked well and some that did no damage at all. And each weapon had a varying amount of energy, unlike the later games where nearly every weapon used a single point of weapon energy. And most weapons in later games would do minimal damage to the bosses except the one weakness, which usually did like 4 points of damage. The bosses no longer had weapon immunity. Every weapon did at least a little bit of damage. They just felt dumbed down compared to the way MM2 and to a lesser extent, MM3 did it.
