I'm Making a Mega Man Thread. My fate is sealed. I have... no choice.

[Videomaster21XX]

Well that was short lived.

Yeah you might have noticed I haven't been playing. Turns out a co-worker is taking a leave of absence that I'm hearing will keep them out till January.

He was the Friday closer, so... looks like I'm back to closing. This means when I get home it'll be too late for me to try for any gaming.

Oh well.

I saw that discotek is re-releasing the MegaMan Cartoon on blu ray. This time with a ton of extras, meaning I will absolutely have to pick up a copy.

However it mentions fixing the speed of the first episode and how it's been properly released at the correct speed for the first time in years.

It makes me wonder if the release I have is properly timed. I have the ADV kids release that came out I think back in like the early 2000s. Far as I know the episode seemed to be running correctly. I didn't notice anything weird when watching it.

I had a hand in getting this thing together, too.

You can get a sense of some of what's going into it from this:

No commentary from me and Sipher, though. And probably no German theme song, sadly.

Nor did I, but they mentioned that the length was closer to 26 minutes rather than the 22 it should be, so you can probably tell from that?

This bites but I missed my chance to get the first three Timeline titles I have to see if I can find copies somehow.

--
I got Switch Megaman X Legacy collection 1 and 2 and 2 is a download? Dang.

I had owned x1 to x6 but never finished x6. Played x7 but never the whole thing. X8 I finished too.

Gosh dang the double boss challenges are rough.

Also have Megaman Zero /ZX legacy collection and never played any of it.

I think I'll start with finishing that first.

I keep hearing eBay is the way if you're outside North America, but UDON Store has them if you're within.

Yeah, that's why I only have that version digitally, and bought the physical on Xbox.

Yeah, yeah, I know, I can't win.

X6 is rough. Just use the Ultimate Armor code. That helps accommodate for most of the rough edges. (I've done it without, but I don't like to.)

X7 is... X7. I never finished it, either.

X8 is good! Not all of it (damn vehicle levels), but mostly good!

Gosh dang the double boss challenges are rough.

Yeah, the way the weapons were set up, I couldn't really get a good enough feel to do them.

Also have Megaman Zero /ZX legacy collection and never played any of it.

I think I'll start with finishing that first.

As long as you're not worried about story chronology, sure! Go for it!

Don't be afraid to use Casual Scenario Mode, though, unless you're really trying to prove something.

I'm totally doing casual on Megaman Zero 1, yeah! Him slicing up the bosses is brutal.

I enjoy the double boss thing because I'm desperately trying to remember the weakness. I KNOW Neon Tiger is weak to the Spinning blade things but I'm fuzzy on Spiral Pegasus. I think I have to beat Pegasus first to stand a chance.

The comic store is trying to re order the Timeline issues I missed. Fingers crossed. I really should have been more vigilant.
