The BEST Classic Mega Man Games List!

Mega Man 1-11 & Rockman & Forte ranked. Handheld games as well as X coming later!
I'm using my 27 years of experience, 7 years of doing the No Miss Buster Only challenge and the countless Snupster races, as well as my mega man game evaluations to create this list. I'm only voicing my own opinion. I'm not speaking for the public.

[@oliverhurt3418]

Nico Evaluates any chance you’d be willing to do "other best lists" for Weapons, Robot Masters, and Levels from the Classic Series? What I mean by that are games you had not included for you original lists. For the levels, just include Mega Man V (Game Boy), Unlimited, and Rock 'n Roll; the latter two, because you play tested them, and even did 'Case, Mega Man' for Unlimited. For Weapons and Robot Masters, Mega Man V (Game Boy), 11, Unlimited, and Rock 'n Roll.

[@space470-1]

Fun fact: one of the developers who developed Mega Man 5 said that the reason that the weapons are so garbage was because the game was rushed and that was the best I could think of at the time.

Mega Man 9 is a near masterpiece, but I enjoy 1, 4 and 10 quite a bit. EDIT: In retrospect, put Mega Man 3 and 7 up there as well. I still don't like the Doc Robot bosses, but I enjoy the Robot master stages too much to even care, and I like the wily stages in spite of how easy and short they are. 7 is just underappreciated brilliance, especially for a game that was made in only three months.

[@scrolltroopa4562]

[@michaelharrington5860]

Mega Man 11 is number 1 for me. Love the level design, the art style, and the double gear system

[@awang_ir]

Yes, agree 11 is great as conquest game for the one who never played a mega man game before. It's not perfect, but the timeline & refreshed everything makes 11 a true sequel while having a good portions of throwback

[@rosecat39248]

I am never sure where to put MM3 on my personal list. I love the first half of the game, but Doc Robots and the Wily Castle always make me want to put the game down.

[@genericyoutubecommentchann7418]

Same here. I usually just skip the doc robot stages and go straight to the castle stages when I play. I usually like the castle stages and the game more as a result.

[@templariox32]

Honestly i think its better than 4 The robot master stages are freaking awesome and very unique each from the other with lots of different twists in them to make them fun like snakeman stage and the platforming in the clouds, spark man and the blocks that go up when you jump them, magnet man and the yoku blocks with the air ducts, gemini man and the eggs that you have to shoot While megaman 4 has good robotmaster stages they arent in the same level,some of them end really fast and dont really leave an impression (dust man, drill man or skull man) Others are plain boring (ring man) and overall the end game of 4 is where the game shines. 3 has better boss battles overall, better robot masters stages and is the first one i consider to get the fortress stages right, even tho they are very short But the real reasons why i think 3 is above 4 is the attention for thinfs that the nes games didnt have. Look at the weakness chart from each 3 and 4 3 had a lot of work into making the player choices matter and really the only game aside from 3 to give you such a degree of experimentation for tackle bosses is 7 (that i consider the best) And 3's ending is really fullfilling and wholesome. You feel that you earned it

[@templariox32]

@Awesome Cat They are ok But while 3's final stages arent as food as 4 4 robot master stages arent nearly as good as 3's 3 just nailed the pacing and enemy positioning 4 has some weird choices here and there that takes a bit of the overall experience Still good tho

[@jraff2735]

Well, I finally decided to put my own list here after watching the video. Let's see, from best to worst: 1. MM11 2. MM10 3. MM7 4. MM4 5. MM9 6. MM3 7. MM2 8. MM6 9. MM1 10. MM5 11. R&F 12. MM8 1 and 2 could be swapped though.

[@Metal18]

You put MM11 at the top spot. I am proud in you.

[@betatalk64]

5 has always been a favorite of mine. Not sure why, there was just something about it that I cant exactly describe. I think what killed 5 was the fact that 4 set the bar really high in terms design. So 5 fell flat a little harder than it should, but I still really love 5. 8 is also a personal favorite, pretty sure its just nostalgia... or maybe its a good game.

[@DJTileTurnip]

So, if there's one thing I love about my video games, it's the music, which is why games like Mega Man 2 and 5 are higher on my list, objectively the games may not be the best but I hold them dear in my heart

[@yugodeandrawirayudha4908]

MM5 music rocks. I guess. I just like the music.

[@uandresbrito5685]

I think besides 1 every single MM game has at least a pretty solid if not great score, even MMB and 8.

[@Victory-in-YAHUSHA]

I think my favorite soundtracks are only from MM3 & MM6. I do like 5's ost, but MM10's is really underrated.

[@lukefitton7329]

@@uandresbrito5685 I love Mega Man 1's music. The tracks may be very short loops but they were also very catchy and suited their stages incredibly well. Wily's Castle sounded intimidating and very climactic to me as an example. The regular boss music and wily boss music were both intense which was fitting given how tough that game was. The soundtracks of the later games were arguably better as songs but there aren't many Mega Man OST's that perfectly resembled the experience like the first game's did imo.

[@uandresbrito5685]

@@lukefitton7329 It's a very personal thing. I like some tracks in MM1, too. And Wily 1 is VERY dramatic, I really enjoy it. But yeah overall the soundtrack is not up to Mega Man standards

[@professortrickroom3777]

Mega Man 9 absolutely deserves to have the highest score on Nico Evaluates. For me, all it took was one stage to know how good the game was going to be. The level design is quite sadistic, but it shows how hard many NES games were in their time. With inspiration from the universally acclaimed Mega Man 2, it put the most popular Mega Man title to shame. I see Mega Man 9 as an old animation series being re-run for the first time in years. The older people, who enjoyed it as kids, get to enjoy it again and remember how good they felt back then. Children who were born into today's generation, on the other hand, get to not only enjoy the show but also learn why it has such a long-lasting legacy.

[@genericyoutubecommentchann7418]

I really don’t get why people consider Megaman 9 hard. I guess it’s harder than your average game, but for Megaman standards I think it’s one of the easier and better designed ones.

[@wheatleyturret826]

@@genericyoutubecommentchann7418 Aside from Rockman and Forte, how is there a harder game than Megaman 9?

[@genericyoutubecommentchann7418]

@@wheatleyturret826 While I think Megaman 2 and 3 have easy segments, I find their hard parts to be much more sadistic. I think the Doc Robot portion is harder than anything in Megaman 9. And it might just be me, but I thought Megaman 7, 10, and 11 were a little harder on average than 9. Mostly because I think the weapons, especially the Jewel Satellite and the Concrete Shot, trivialize a lot of the game. I would also maybe consider the first game to be harder if only because of the lack of polish in some things like the foot holders, and a few of the bosses can be hard if you don’t know how to handle them. And of course, I think Rockman and Forte is the hardest; we can agree on that.

[@wheatleyturret826]

@@genericyoutubecommentchann7418 nah, I feel like 2 has only a singular hard part, while 3 only has the doc robots as difficulty, but I kid you not, Mega man 9 was the ONLY mega man game that genuinely got me to start scratching myself out of frustration in EVERY. SINGLE. STAGE. the concrete shot is unironically, my LEAST favorite weapon in the entirety of classic to use. but yeah, Rockman and Forte is just unfair.

[@genericyoutubecommentchann7418]

@@wheatleyturret826 Okay, that’s fair. I mean, personally, I had the exact opposite experience, as 9 was one of the games I never had any real problems with, but to each their own. Granted, I did play the GBA Megaman and Bass immediately before playing 9 for the first time, so I guess I was a bit more prepared, but I never had any difficulties replaying 9 either, and I did have some difficulties replaying the other games I mentioned.

[@themaraca778]

Mega Man 9 was the best way to revive the Classic Series. They went back to old chiptune audio, pixelated look, balanced and useful weapons, amazing soundtrack, and just combined everything else that made the classic MM1 through MM6 games great. Wonderful game, I rate it 9 out of 11.

[@matthew1420]

That's what I didn't like about 9 and 10. Capcom devolved the series simply for nostalgia baiting and I don't like 3d mega man so hopefully they come with another 16 or 32-bit.

Mega Man 1 *on a side note, I’ve also played the Mega Man X Legacy Collection. And my ranking of those games would be: 1. Mega Man X2 (favorite MM game so far) 2. Mega Man X 3. Mega Man X3 4.

[@GreyWind1988]

There was one massive problem I had about MM7 that did drag it down for me. The robot masters were only fun buster only. Otherwise, they were just too easy. The weaknesses should make the bosses easier but not so easy that you can fight them without taking a hit with no trouble. If they had done the bosses more like MM8 where the weaknesses made the fight easier but the timing windows to use them were tricky, it would have been better

[@Jdcryno]

My own personal list is as follows. 12: r&f 11: mm8 10: mm 11 9: mm 7 8: mm 3 7: mm 2 6: mm 1 5: mm 10 4: mm 5 3: mm 4 2: mm 9 1: mm 6 As nobody will ever agree I respect your list, I ranked 7 lower because Mega man just moved too slow like he was walking under water. I ranked 6 the highest because I had the most fun with it.

[@Airhammer]

If I made a critical list it would be near identical. Personally I would put 11 over 6. 3 is my favorite, but it's flaws keep it lower. 9 would not be my #1 though and I'm not sure where I'd place it. Yes it's a great game, but every time I've played it I feel like something is missing. The slide is obvious. In both 9 and 10 I find myself wanting to slide then remember it's not in the game (unless I play as Proto, which I don't)

[@JamesTrifolium]

The reason why MM2 is bad is because MM1 sold so poorly that Capcom only gave the team a limited amount of time to make MM2. They decided to design the levels first and hold a contest for the robot master designs, leading to Heat Man getting a recolored sewer and Flash Man getting an ice stage. When that was finished, they didn’t have enough time to test the weapons. They just checked that they worked properly and shipped it, didn’t bother to check if they were balanced. In other words, it was rushed beyond rushed.

[@adamsee4144]

MM3 is my favorite, but because of nostalgia. It was the first MM game i ever played, and the only one I ever actually owned on the NES. So alot of the other games I never got to play until much later in my life. After playing the rest of the earlier MM games, I can see where their were advancements and setbacks in the series when comparing to my favorite. I can objectively say that almost all the games after MM3 were mechanically superior, as they should be. I will definitely put MM4 and MM9 on a higher pedestal because they exemplify what MM games should be. I'm still iffy on MM7, due to it's slowdown, but its still a very solid game. And no developer should ever do what MM8 did, which was everything wrong. Some of these games, including my favorite MM3, suffered from short or rushed development cycles. If I could change anything about MM3, it would be a long list.

[@noodlepsychosis8452]

Disagree with 11's placement as the design I feel the game is super learnable, and well thought out. Cheap deaths are few, and it always feels like a little more observation and practice is all you need to get through the game. Weapons all have their uses, levels are mechanically diverse with good obstacle and enemy variety, and the robot masters are as well designed as the stages themselves. Perhaps stages such as Torch man's are a bit too hectic (especially gearless) but for a game to have such few unfair/rng parts is pretty commendable. I do agree it's just too short though. Two wily stages and then its revisits and final boss? Shame, but I won't forget the fun I had getting there. My list: 1. Mega Man 7 (Some of the most diverse and fair level design in the series. Wily Capsule 7 was taken too far, but I can't help feeling excited with the level of challenge he brings. My list my bias X'D) 2. Mega Man 4 (Just a great overall package that gets the important stuff right. Hard to complain and easy to recommend) 3. Mega Man 9 (Challenge is a bit much sometimes such as with the near un-reactable Wily Capsule 9, but aside from that its just such an excellent package. Fans who prefer the more difficult Mega Mans will get a kick out of this one.) 4. Mega Man 11 (As I said: Very learnable, and crazy fun to master. The ideal Mega Man experience imo) 5. Mega Man 10 (Its pretty decent! Basically more of Mega Man 9. Very solid and the fortress music is some of the best in the series. Bit of a shame Block Devil and Sheep man's weapon stink.) 6. Mega Man 1 (My guilty pleasure. Plenty of weird flaws and a lack of level memorability compared to other Mega mans, but just doing a quick runthrough of the game is pretty fun) 7. Mega Man 6 (Its frustrating that such a fun game is marred by not being able to jump out of a slide and the constant form switching. That really bothers me, but aside from that its really solid stuff) 8. Mega Man 5 (Hate the wave bike section in wave man's stage. Aside from that its alright. Nothing really grabs my attention) 9. Mega Man 3 (Love most of the game, but the doc robot stages kill any enthusiasm I have for replaying it) 10. Mega Man 2 (The game is visually and musically memorable, but its design seriously annoys me at times. Who thought boo beam trap and wood man were fun bosses? A good nes game, but a flawed Mega Man game.) 11. Mega Man 8 (Is this even a Mega Man game? Half the stages are unfair autoscrollers. This is the result of variety first and polish later) 12. Mega Man and Bass (Burner Man, Dynamo Man, King stage 2. Need I say more?)

[@mastart4983]

1-2. MM9/MM11 These have the best level design, weapons and bosses. I prefer the music in 9 though. 3. MM7 The secrets are absurdly hidden and i hate slashman paralyzing attack. Otherwise, awesome game. I think that the progressive stage selection is actually a good idea. Love these sprites. 4-5. MM10/MM4 Both are pretty good, although i have a few gripes with some stages here and there. I would give the edge to 10 for QoL stuff. 6. MM6 A pretty solid title, even if the menuing kills the pace. It also didnt move the series forward, when MMX had already came out. 7. MM5 Charged buster is busted and the weapons are pretty bad. I actually like several stages. 8. MM2 Stages and bosses are pretty mediocre, and metal blades are op. 9. MM It has aged in quite a few places and the bosses are terrible. Weapons are actually pretty good 10. MM3 It is this low if only for the copy robot stages 11. MM8 Too gimmicky (i hate the skating sections), childish tone, no enemy variety and slow menu. Good bosses. 12. R&F I like the disk collectibles, the progressive stage selection and the weapons; the rest is terrible. Btw, I think these games would benefit from eliminating the lives system and from replenishing ammo when you die (if the ammo of each weapon is appropiately balanced).

A little harsh on Mega Man 2 imo but I like the Mega Man 1 appreciation.

[@ScreamyngYoshi]

Gonna go with the flow here... 1. Mega Man 9- There is no question about it. This game is simply orgasmic. 2. Mega Man 10- About on the same level as 9, but below that game because of the weapons. Still fun, but not as good. 3. Mega Man 4- It's quality is simply unmatched when comparing it to the other NES entries. 4. Rockman & Forte- Just like with X6, I enjoyed R&F quite a bit, but I will not defend it in any way. 5. Mega Man- The first entry just so happens to be one of my favorites in the Classic series. 6. Mega Man 6- Got a lot of enjoyment out of this one, but a tad bit easy 7. Mega Man 5- Even though I don't like this game, I still prefer this over a few of the games. 8. Mega Man 7- Would definitely be at the top, if it weren't for the unbearably long cutscenes that you have to sit through. 9. Mega Man 2- Nah.

[@adhoclavaman]

24:23 My problem with the game is how most gimmicks are done to death in a lot of stages (spanning across multiple checkpoints), and maneuvering around them can feel like a chore (Commando sand, anyone?). Not much is done new with each gimmick in the second checkpoint it is used (with exception of Chill Man).

[@Beriorn]

So once more with feeling, I compared the scores of the games to see which era of games is the best. There's the Classic (1-6), Continuation (7, 8, Forte) and Revival (9, 10, 11) eras. For each era I added up the scores of the games then divided it by the number of games in the eras. The lower your score the better. This turns them into the following top 3: 3: Continuation Era with 8.333 points. Well, if two of your games are in the two lowest spots your score is going to be terrible even if the other one is second place. Gotta agree with this one: MM8 and Bass are easily the worst in the series. 7 however is excellent. 2: Classic Era with 6.833 points. Heavily clustered around the center you'll end up being dragged down by your lower scores even if you have a few good ones. Which is a good metaphor for the first six games: some of them are significantly better than others, especially Mega Man 4. 1: Revival Era with 4 points. Well, practice makes perfect. Having shorn away all but the most basic elements of the game you end up with some very tight design. Mega Man 11 however tried something else entirely, which while fresh did not really feel Mega Man. They could have made the gear system either superfluous or a crutch, and did not commit to either. So good on you, Mega Men 9, 10 and 11: You are the best of the bunch.

megaman 7 was amazing when i first booted it up i was like why tf is megaman giant but you will soon forgot that. The bosses with the music and flow are the best you'll play. I tried that final boss so many times and i could not beat it, i can't remember exactly but i finally got into it deeper after much practice, at a certain point i couldn't figure out how to damage him (i think.... its been a while) though its the only one i never beat.

[@ArkaneEvangale]

Fantastic list! More people need to call out Mega Man 2 for what it really is. A cluster of fun ideas with bad execution. MM7 is definitely my favorite one, and I'm glad you acknowledged it to such a high degree. Mega Man 4 certainly deserves more recognition. It's the most balanced Mega Man experience one could ask. Mega Man 9 is great, and I can certainly see why people rank it so highly. In my opinion, the game can be pretty trollish at times, more so than your average Mega Man game, almost acting as a parody of a Mega Man game that is unorthodox rather than just being traditional. I think MM8 gets a bad rep, simply because of it's awful voice acting. The levels, weapons, and bosses are all perfectly sound, which is the most important aspect to a game anyways. MM&B is not for the faint of heart. I like the weapons quite a bit. One thing that is much to the game's detriment, which applies to MM8 as well is the lack of E-Tanks.

[@TheT3rr0rMask]

I loved 8 on my first playthrough. Ever since I've never been able to get into it again. I start a file, play like 15min, exit and play 7 or one of the NES games. It was one of the first I played when I was a kid but never beat it. W/that in mind I beat it when LC2 came out, maybe I was excited at that time having memories of the game. Now though I just can't. Feels bland, and the longest I played since was the Saturn version just so I could fight Wood and Cutman. After that I haven't picked the game up again.

I think you meant early 2000s internet in general. But yeah a lot of people disliked MM7, MM8 and MM10 for various reasons. Now 7 is a very beloved entry, same with 10 and 8 has its own niche of fans too. Honestly every game has its own little vocal fanbase. The only games that dropped in popularity since the 2000s are 2 and 3. ESPECIALLY 2, the fanbase respects the game but if you mindlessly simp MM2 you won't get much respect which is nice because the mindless nostalgia fueled biased towards 2 really grinded my gears back then.

[@daevis694]

My list. (I don't have 9, 10, or 11. Just depending on how Nico's evaluation made my opinion.) 12- MM&B. I was really excited to play this game, only to find out that this game is good only with Bass. Playing with Mega Man is just a "screw you". 11- 8. God, this game. It's so god awful. If this wasn't Mega Man, I would actually enjoy it. I do like the bosses. 10- 2. The first Mega Man game I played. I was determined to beat this game, and I did. ONCE. Never could beat it again. I'm still trying to use less of Metal Blade and makes use of the weapons, buts it's just so unbalanced, I was crying for Mega Man 4. I was expecting a really good Wily Stage 2, and what do I get? A background in the colour of feces. Wily 4 might possibly be the worst Wily Stage I have ever seen. This is my Top 3 least favorite Mega Man games. I'm done. 9- 5. To be honest, I personally enjoy 5 more than 2. It's still doesn't scream Mega Man to me. I find myself using the weapons for fun, even if they aren't that balanced (because of the F*CKING charge buster), the stage I kinda enjoy, but the Robot Master fights... eugh. They are just to simple. I only like Charge and Gyro. 8- 10. I don't know, I was confused where to put this, sure I don't own it yet, but it looks so fun, yet so bad, I'm confused. It's probably not as good as some games what comes to flow. The weapons don't really look that powerful, apart from one half of the arsenal. The Boss fights look really cool, especially the ones Nico likes. Overall, I hate myself for giving 10 this score, but at the same time, I feel like my opinion just shouts at me to keep it here. 7- 6. This game just feels like the most rushed. The weapons are just there, they use the same sound after you fire them, the bosses are a bit interesting, and the level design is just the same. It's not horrible by any means, I do enjoy this more than the games at the bottom of my list. 6- 1. This game might be the shortest, but it's Capcom's first attempt at Mega Man. Stages look good for the first game, bosses are pretty fun even if they only cycle through 2 attacks, and the weapons are more fun to use. 5- 3. Inafune said that this was his worst attempt at Mega Man. First of all, did he look at 2? Second, the game isn't even that horrible. It's pretty fun, Weapons are good, apart from the goddamn Spark Shock, and the bosses... seriously, what is up with Robot Masters having only two attacks? The Doc Robots are just not needed, they are garbage. 4- 7. Don't know why people bash this one. It's more passive, but it plays just like Classic Mega Man. Weapons are fun, The stages are mostly awesome, music is embedded in my mind, and the fights are just good old fun. Shoutout to Wily 1. 3- 11. This is a nice way of redeeming 8 years of silence. It looks gorgeous, the robot master lineup is really fun to play (or maybe it is, I don't know, I don't own the game, goddammit), the weapons are really cool looking, and everything just makes sense. It is really short, which is a disappointment, the Wily Stages looked really cool, but then that's about it. At least you have different difficulty settings and the challenges, I guess. 2- 4. The first Mega Man game I beat. I was so fed up of Boobeam Trap, I ragequit 2 for a while and tried out 4. I have to say, kudos to Capcom for making this game. It's just good ol mega man fashioned fun, Cossack and Wily castles throw a real challenge, and the weapons? Just feed me them (That came out wrong, lol). I had so much fun screwing around with them. The robot masters though, were a letdown. After that awesome sewer stage, you're expecting something dangerous, but then it's like, "Hello, I'm Toad Man. Oh, I'm dead." It's still my No. 2 game. 1- 9. Now I know what you're thinking. "Dude. You don't even own 9." It looks so fun, I just want to invest my cash in a Wii-u for THIS game only. It's hard, which I like. It flows well, which I like. And it gives replay value, which I also like. The graphics look a bit lacking, but it's nothing to sneeze at. Man, I'm crying because I don't have this game. EDIT: I've rethinked about my list and thought I would rank 10 above 6.

It's always fun to hear other's opinions because the Mega Man series is SO good! Other than Rockman and Forte I don't think there is a bad game or even a mediocre game in the entire classic series. I actually consider Megaman 4 and 6 to be on the lower end of the spectrum because the music in those games just didn't do it for me. Some of the castle music in 4 was actually superb but the stage themes couldn't hold a candle to MM2 or 3 (my personal favorites...I have never seen someone spit on the glorious MM2 like you... for shame!) "Critically speaking", I will take MM2 or 3 over 4 any day of the week. 😜 One game that we can certainly agree on is Mega Man 9 though. I don't know where that game would place on my list but I will say it is one of the absolute best games in the series. Loved everything about it!

[@slash6814]

Ok, my list from best to worst: not counting rm&f because I never played it: 1. Mm7: explanation: mm7 is my favorite entry because of the music, gameplay, weapons being my favorites in the series. The bosses in mm7 are also amazing (especially if you do buster only for them) and their weaknesses a lot of the time make sense in context or how they work. for example: cloud man's weakness makes sense since the weapon always goes in an upwards arc. Or slash man since he is presented to look like a cave man or to look like a primitive robot master. As well as his stage literally being a robot version of jurassic park so it makes sense even more. And the freeze cracker makes so much sense as the weakness if you think about it. Also the stages are all like playgrounds to explore in with the collectables giving it more replayability. Also, the wily stages, these have to be one of the best sets of wily stages in the entire classic mm series period. Also the wily capsule in mm7 is my favorite because of the fact that it is actually HARD unlike the last 3 nes mm games except 4 imo not only that, but wily does not feel unfair either since his telegraphs are good which eases the fighr. In conclusion: I love mm7. 2. Mm9: mm9 is also an amazing example of a mega man game. So lets start with the obvious, the weapons are not my favorite, but they are definitely the hardest hitting weapons. The only 2 that is sorta lacking is the magma bazooka and plug ball but even so, they do pretty good in the damage department. Another thing I love, the difficulty! It is soooo balanced in difficulty. The level design and just the overall flow of the game works in its advantage 9.5 times out of ten. And even though for a first time run of mm9 it can be very difficult, the weapons help out in the stages, for example: are there enemies getting to close to you? Use the black hole bomb to suck the enemies around you. Are at that point in plug man's stage where there is a met on the edge while also being next to a spike pit? Use the jewel satellite! Need some health but the energy capsule is hidden? Use the hornet chaser. There are way more examples but yeah, the weapons have been beautifully polished. Playing mega man 9 is like eating t-bone steak with rice and beans: you would want more and more of it and the game would deliver. Bosses: I love em. They are possibly my favorite in the series. *I'll continue with this comment tomorrow since I have a lot to talk about here.*

My three favorites are 6, 7, and 10. I haven't played MM&B or MM11. The slide/jump thing in 6 really doesn't bother me at all because I mostly only play with the Power Adaptor which doesn't let you slide anyway, most of the weapons are great at what they do (though Yamato Spear is pretty redundant, and Plant Barrier suffers from too much energy consumption) and none of them feel too overpowered (though the Flame Blast does shred most mid-bosses), and the music is all amazing. 7, despite having very little develpment time, is incredibly well-polished and everything seems like it had a ton of thought put into it. I also really like the idea of the shop, and am glad it came back in later games. The Super Adaptor is really fun to use, but I still personally prefer the Power Adaptor. My biggest complaint with 7 is the charge shot is too weak and feels pretty pointless to use because of that. I really like that 10 has three playable characters, all with their own slightly different playstyles. Mega Man is, unfortunately, unable to charge his buster or slide, but it's more excusable here than in 9 since Proto Man was meant to be playable from the start. Proto Man can charge and slide, and block shots while in the air, but takes double damage and has fewer and more expensive shop items. Bass (my personal favorite to play as) can shoot in 7 directions, but can't walk while shooting, and can dash like the X series characters can, though it's bound to the slide input, and has even fewer shop items than Proto Man, and are at the same price as his if I remember correctly.

I don't mind repetitive elements or overpowered weapons, so long as there's at least the option to do something fun. I also don't usually play through to the end of the game very often, as by that point the game has little replay value. I like special weapons in theory, but don't like the process of switching weapons in practice. Even quick-swapping is uncomfortable, so I'll usually just stick with whatever weapon I feel like playing around with for a stretch of time. I feel like 5 and 11 are the most fun to pick up and play, while 7 is my go-to for whenever I want to get to the castle stages and beat the game. 4 trails just behind 7 because of its weapons, which I think were just the right course-correction from 3's useless selection, but are greatly outshone by just how much fun I have with Noise Crush and Wild Coil. For all its faults, 8 is still a fun romp with good weapons (especially when you make fun of the cutscenes), and I find myself wanting to play it more than most other games in the series, even if I quit halfway through. I have the most mixed feelings about 6, 9, and 10. They're really good games quality-wise, but I just don't have as much fun playing them as I do other games in the series. 9 and 10 suffer _immensely_ from the fact that they were emulating Mega Man 2. Despite how much fun the weapons are, I don't want to have to go through any of the stages buster-only to _get_ those weapons, nor do I want to be locked into half-health because I like the charge-shot and slide. I dislike the original trilogy most. 2 is the most polished out of them, and 1 is short enough for me to excuse its BS footholders and Wily bosses. I have no respect for Mega Man 3 - they give you the worst possible weapons to deal with the levels (Spark Shock particularly), and you don't have the charge-shot to fall back on when those weapons inevitably fail you. Also screw Mega Man & Bass, all the homies hate Mega Man & Bass
