Mega Man Megathread

[Yousef]

Im interested in the battle network, X and Zero

All three have their own legacy collections on steam, ps4 and switch.
For their original hardware it would depend. Gba is fine for zero and BN. There’s the X collection on ps2 and gamecube but it has input lag I hear.

Zero's games really shine on the GBA itself because of the very lower resolution; blowing up gba games to big screens (unless its a tube tv) makes it look very blocky. Filters can make it less bad

For X, 1 is always the best place to begin. If you like what you play there, I recommend 4, 3, and give 5 a shot (it may not click with you).

1, 2, and 3 are on SNES, 3, 4, and 5 are on PS1. All games are on modern systems and computers thanks to recent collections. I’ve heard people say X8 is good! I made a thread to ask people about it and the consensus was mixed positive. And, of course, once you’re in you’re free to try any game you want and form your own hot takes about game quality!

Try stuff out! See what clicks! And have fun!

Agreed. Play it on a handheld if you can!

no need for Megaman micro threads when we have the megathread here.

He’s seen your search history and he’s going to hold it over your head for the rest of your life.

Why is he smiling like that…

It's because of all the war crimes he committed.

Maybe it’s paying homage to Archie bass

I'm almost too scared to ask what's up with Archie Bass.

Ah yes. Toke Man.

Given that Ian quite literally was not able to actually adapt Megaman 3-10, you should be. He quite literally skipped his backstory so he can feateue him in some half baked crossover. This is why some google results you’ll see are quite cursed.

I mean REALLY cursed.

Archie Bass commits child abuse.

He wanted to include him and he would be damned if anybody told him no.


Capcom was the one telling him “no”. Because Capcom doesn’t like Mega Man.

THATS so true holy shit

I really like Star Force series, IMO it's too underrated. I wish it had gotten more attention or wished they would bring back this game.

It was underrated because it was so different, but I’ve ALWAYS wanted to know what it’s all about! It’s almost never been talked about by YouTubers, whom I spent much of my childhood gaining video game takes on.

Now, as an adult, I still know nothing about it.

4 Zero games.
6 MMBN games, but they have dual versions for some of them.

4 Zero games, ZX is a different series that takes place after Zero.

Battle Network, there are 6, but they decided to start doing Pokémon-like double releases a few games in.

Ian’s biggest nightmare scenario.

You are not a real megaman fan if you haven't beat Megaman Network Transmission
