FAQ:
> Where should I start?
1, unless you're 16-babby in which case consider X. Make your way onward.

> Does 8 suck?
It's mediocre at the very best for a mega man game, but it's still a shitload of fun. If shitty camera triggers you too much, play the demake, 8 FC. Good game.

> Are there gonna be demakes for Powered Up and Bass?
Doesn't seem to likely at all, in fact forget about it. Let's hope someone else picks up the idea and does it.

> I have autism and can't play mish-mash mods like MI, are there any games with integrity?
Ultimate should be your first choice, also play MM X SF and perhaps 3-5 BC-AS series as well.

> Series aside from Classic and X worth playing?
Eh...

> Anything "special" I wanna know about?
Mega man 8-bit Death match. Personally, I play every other evening.

Couple of levels for 2.5 already available: http://petersjostrand.com/index.php/faq

> Is Wily Wars worth playing?
If you simply can't miss anything classic mega man, there's a cheat code for instant access to Wily's Tower, original bit of WW. Aside from that, the port is shit. Music murdered, graphics below average like it's some C genesis title, buster doesn't even shoot right.

> What about Powered Up?
Graphics is controversial, but it's a fine remake with ability to play as robot masters. New ones suck though.
Also here's a vote for a favorite boss in 1. Guy intends on getting 500 votes and then moving on to 2, etc. http://www.strawpoll.me/10596784

Hori.

But what you should be doing is just taking that shit apart with a Phillips head and throwing some Gamecube style sticks in. No soldering, you just unplug the old stick and screw in the new one, it's so easy a 10 year old could do it.

Only replacement worth a shit are the sticks from the german guy.

Obligatory buy sticks from german guy post

I'm not ashamed to say I actually like the Zelda cartoon. I just don't like that Link looks and sounds like Stormy from Sealab 2021.

And the best decision DiC ever made was using sound effects from the games in all of their Nintendo cartoons. I wonder why they never thought to do that with any of the Sonic cartoons?

>I wonder why they never thought to do that with any of the Sonic cartoons?
Even stranger, in one episode of AoStH, Sonic goes into a special stage and grabs rings, but the rings make this weird popping sound instead of the actual sound effect.

>>3344564
Now that you mention it, there was an episode with a giant pinball machine in it, which easily could have been a spinball tie in, but it wasn't, and it used a bunch of Mario sound effects.

I think the 3DO had better controllers, better sound and a better library (Street Fighter 2, Star Control 2, Road Rash). Jaguar probably had better 3D. I think the Jaguar was probably the more tragic failure since the 3DO was doomed from the start with its weird licensing arrangement.

I don't think anyone can argue 3do had the better library. On paper its library was bretty good for a first console.

Jaguar had too complicated architecture so we've never managed to see what this machine is capable of.
Jaguar CD is a joke.
I suppose, Jaguar failure was more tragic, because it killed Atari. 3DO just became a publisher.

1. Supply and demand
2. They're out of print
3. Because people will pay absurd amounts for them

The japanese cartdiges/discs aren't.

Why'd I even stop learning nihongo, god damn it. I'm gonna get back into it.

fucking hoarders

games stop being expensive when you stop wanting them. if you want to whine, go to the other inane thread with the exact same topic

>>3344043
the japs sell old games cheap because they don't have the space to hoard, thus games continuously get injected back into the market.

>>3343631
There's not really any good ones, but you can get cheap ones from China. Like $3 shipped. Or you can buy replacement pads and refurb all your old ones.

>>3343979
>you can get cheap ones from China
Are they comfortable to use? The only ones with a 7-pin plug I can find on AliExpress (not counting pure copies of NES-controllers, which don't appeal to me at all) are these Dendy Junior-style controllers. Does anyone know if they are any good?

What's the best NES arcade stick? Should I just get an Advantage?

>>3343513
The forms are designed to fight the stage boss.

I didn't get much mileage out of the bear, where the wolf and dragon kicked ass on their respective bosses.

Ike's a good unit. I never really thought of him as too good of a lord, though. Gameplay wise, he's a beast. In terms of personality...he's kinda bland from what I'm seeing in PoR
