Welp, Téo Dupriez, you definitely beat me to it. I WAS going to make the Mega Man (1987) scene selection, but you beat me to it. I guess,I could make my own version on Wordpress, but then it would have a few minor differences like the inclusion of the whole franchise's opening scene and the number of scenes the sections of this game are.

[@azelfy]

@@kieranstark7213 I think that's a nice idea! :D

[@freakyfornash]

I'll never forget how I reacquired this game, after I initially had it in the early to mid 90's, but foolishly sold it to a friend of mine not too long afterwords when I got sick of it, which I deeply regretted shortly after. I got it back from a kid I went to middle school with, who knew I was a huge Mega Man fan, and offered to sell the game to me for a very generous $5-$10 at the most, way back in 1998. Well the poor chap got kicked out of school the very same day he gave me the game (which I was going to pay him for the next day), and needless to say, got it for free as a result too! The best part about that was the kid didn't even really like me, and vice-versa too! Whoever thought he would end up doing me one of the biggest favors of my life by some odd coincidence though!? (L.O.L.!)

The original classic of the series. I was in elementary in 1988. My best friend talked about this game non stop. We both spoke of video games and going through Nintendo power in after school, drawing and joking around and talking about mega man. That I ended up getting mega man 2 by my dad one afternoon. Took that shit to school to show it off even 😂. The game was my favorite game from NES. From there then on I got every mega man game that came out in its release date order either for birthday, Christmas or obsessing and driving my dad crazy to get it for me and would surprise me with it randomly when I arrived home with the game in my room form Sears or toys r us. Good times. Still recall getting the games as if it was last year, Sears upstairs had the Nintendo section which was like a gold mine whenever you saw that nintendo logo hanging over head in the distance through all the clothes rack. The games were all displayed in the locked glass cases surrounding the clerk and all around it was always packed with kids and their dads looking through the glass for their favorite or next title and waiting their turn for the clerk to come around to tend to you. It was like a bar and getting the bartenders attention You were lucky enough if you got the last game that was seen in display case. Sometimes a family would get it right before you. Nowadays you go to target or Walmart or whatever and the video game section is missing that magic from yesteryear. And at toys r us, was always awesome to get your copy of a NES game. It was exciting as shit. Going through the video game isle with hundreds of NES games box photos on the walk and under each box set was a plastic transparent index holder with the some ticket with game number and you would grab one and take it to the back where there was a window and a worker would take your ticket snd bring out the game and you pay up front. If there was no tickets left in the plastic index card holder, it meant the game was sold out. It crushed every boy im sure when they came to grab a ticket only to learn the game is not available and you keep coming back to store to see when the the tickets are stocked full under your games photo. Good times simple times that today’s generation won’t see or appreciate. Those were the days we really appreciated and worked for what we want and took care of it snd took nothing for granted! Mega man 1 was actually my last MM game I got after MM6. Only because I played it a ton of times at that friends house while I had the rest of the saga at home and didn’t feel the need to buy it until you never saw it available again during the 90’s as games were constantly turned over and taken out of stores…but when I got older and internet was born, ebay was discovered and I purchased mm1 finally for collector reason. Hated that I had that missing title.

[@jonathanmartin7252]

Incredible! Cut Mans' cutting blades are like the Boomerang Cutter weapon that Boomer Kuwanger used in Mega Man X SNES.

[@flash4354]

Jonathan Martin Yep. Boomerang Cutter is likely to be based on Rolling Cutter, Cut Man's weapon. I even confuse Rolling Cutter with Boomerang Cutter often lol.

[@yurdp]

LOL! Iceman shows up looking like he’s got something to prove and then fails instantly.

[@animalchandler]

I was just playing this earlier, and even though I have completed MM2, this is still a challenge to play, and I love it! MM is one of those games where you have to learn how to play it well to play it at all, (Ninja Gaiden is another great example) which is why it's so satisfying to complete.

[@rhinestoneage0125]

I think I understand each Robot Master’s Weakness. Mega Buster > Hyper Bomb This is because the bullets being shot from Mega Man’s Mega Buster consist of solar energy. Since it is made of the same energy being emitted from the sun, and since the sun is made out of flames, it would explain why Bomb Man is weak to the Mega Buster because if a bomb were to be put on fire, it would produce more powerful explosions, much more powerful that not even Bomb Man can withstand it. Hyper Bomb > Super Arm This is because Hyper Bombs are projectiles, and since Guts Man relies heavily on physical strength, he wouldn’t be able to get close to Mega Man if he keeps bumping into explosions. He could also be weak to it because Bombs can explode and demolish the debris being launched at Mega Man upon contact, Super Arm > Rolling Cutter This is because when using Super Arm, Mega Man launches debris. Assuming the debris are entirely made out of rocks, this would explain why Cut Man would be weak to it because just like in Rock Paper Scissors, Rock always crushes Scissors. Rolling Cutter > Thunder Beam This is because electricity usually travels through wires, but they can’t travel if the wires are cut. Assuming that Elec Man’s body is connected through wires, this would explain his weakness to Rolling Cutter because he would be unable to use Thunder Beam on Mega Man if the wires that give him electricity are cut. Thunder Beam > Ice Slasher This is because Ice is usually composed of water, and when water contacts electricity, it would be electrocuted. Ice Man could also be weak to Thunder Beam because when lighting strikes, it can cause fire, and fire melts ice. Ice Slasher > Fire Storm This is because when Ice comes into contact with Fire, it melts, but if the ice is bigger than the fire, the water that leaks from the melted ice would then extinguish the fire, which explains Fire Man’s weakness to Ice Slasher.

[@edwardgaines6561]

Well you certainly gave that much thought. Commendable! Although I never understood why Spark Mandrill was weak to Ice, when in *this* game it's Iceman who's weak to electricity.

[@Mike18Rock]

Loved this game so much holy shit

[@zazelby]

Exactly how I feel. It's technically a longplay because you didn't skip any areas, but it doesn't feel like a longway becuase you don't go even an inch out of your way for anything - not to kill enemies, not for health/weapon power-ups, not for extra lives, not even to grab the Yashichi in the last stage - instead just racing forward trying to get to the end as quickly as possible.

[@RetroRogue.]

[@OldGamerJC]

Eu não sei por que tanta negatividade esta longplay praticamente perfeito

[@arbiter787]

To everyone who thinks that this is tool-assisted: First of all TAS stands for tool-assisted speedrun. If this was a true speedrun it would be quicker. A lot quicker. There is nothing here that could not have been done by a human who knows what he's doing. The only tool that was almost certainly used here was an emulator and the turbo function of said emulator. While it was certainly possible that he used some form of tool assistance it would have to be a very slow and sloppy form. Secondly TAS software does not come with emulators. Thirdly TAS software is always custom built for the game it is to be used on making it impossible for it to come with emulators as emulators are generally for all games on a given system. This concludes my rant.

[@doolindanger2459]

This is not assisted... I used to beat this game without taking any damage on any level. It wasn't that difficult a game. It's all about the sequence of bosses and using which weapon against which. And although this wasn't a perfect run through, it still was the correct order of bosses.

[@BustasGirl1]

Doolin Danger no it wasn't the easiest to kill is cutman because all you do is spam bullets and you win it's so easy to dodge him as well

[@MeteorSmash]
