Sorry for the shit list. It's really all there it is when it comes to Mega-likes.

Yeah I tried ny best to imply that I didn't want any modern Mega Man-like recommendations but if you really wanted to go their Shovel Knight is probably the best example of a Mega Man like game, but that's mire similar to Zelda 2 in gameplay than Mega Man, but it does have a similar level progression like Mega Man

>>3468254
2 and 3 may be the highest regarded, but I think the entire classic series is great. However, 2 is the easiest, so if you had trouble with that, idk how you're gonna feel with the rest. Go try to beat 1 or 4 and prepare for an anal raping.

>>3468254
the series starts to recycle stuff and drops the creativity ball at 4, probably because they wanted to keep riding the NES into the sunset. Mega Man 7 and 8 both take advantage of the space they have to work with, REALLY apparent when you marathon the games.

It was more or less just me being dumb and having shit reaction when I played it for the first time, as well as not being patient enough to get through the Wily stages. I just beat it a while ago without much trouble, especially the Robot Masters since I never had trouble with them. I forgot how long ago I got a copy as a gift, but I hadn't played much Mega Man when I recieved it, but now I'm craving a bit mire and will probably emulate them on my Wii. There's also collections available for Classic and X but I'm not too sure if those pirt are quakity or warrant the purchase when I could just emulate them.

*those ports are quality to warrant the purchase

however if I remember correctly the classic mega man collection had some bonus content like a racing game and a video abiut mega man or something.
I had it on GC but the control layout pissed me off.

Play Mega Man V on the gameboy. It actually does a few interesting things with the typical MM tropes, and it also fits well as a wonderful finale to the original games.

Avoid MM 1 - 4 on the gameboy though. Those games are unplayable.

>>3468317
I have both GC collections, but since they are a bit pricey, I probably wouldn't recommend it over emulation, unless you really want to play on some type of hardware. The PS2 collections are dirt cheap though, iirc. The classic series is also on the 3DS eShop for $5 each.

And like >>3468326 said, the GB MMV is unique from the rest of the classic series and worth the play. Cartridge is super expensive for a GB game, so emulate it or buy the Japanese version. Fun challenging game with a unique plot of alien robot gods invading earth, while 1 - 4 GB is just watered down NES games that aren't worth the time unless you're a hardcore MM fan. Each takes 2 sets of four robot masters from consecutive NES games, eg 2 has 4 bosses from 2 and four bosses from 3, 3 has 4 from 3, and 4 from 4, etc. the levels are mostly just watered down NES stages with some minor differences. Was a good for playing MM on the go in the 90s, but don't hold up with today's abilities.

>>3468326
1 was standard fare for early GB games, 3 polished it up significantly despite still not being groundbreaking, and 4 is very nearly on par with 5; the only serious stinker out of the lot was 2

>>3468612
4 may be leagues above 1 - 3, but it's still just a rehash that I wouldn't recommend to non hardcore fans

why couldn't they make a Mega Man game that played entirely like a euro-shmup?

does he live in his hat at the end of the game? and if so, how???? i haven't played Ii

>>3470350
He just left his helmet in the grass after taking a walk through nature after raping Dr Wily

This would probably be my favorite classic Mega Man game if it wasn't on the Game Boy. I'd love to see it in color, on a bigger screen (although I realize the game would have to be redesigned a bit), and not running at a horrible framerate most of the time.

>good level design
>levels are good length
>varied levels
>bosses pretty fun, in buster only some become quite challenging
>great art
>good subweapons, all have a purpose and use
>not as glitchy as 2 and 3
>while weaker then 2 and 3 the OST is still very good
Explain to me how 4 isn't the best of the NES games.

You know they were actually planning a colorized GBA collection of the 5 GB MM games at the same time they released the anniversary collection on the GC? For whatever reason, they ended up stopping development.

It upsets me everytime I'm reminded of what could have been

>>3468254
>tfw beat Mega Man 8 last night and no longer have to deal with Wily ever again

>>3470983
If I remember right, it was because capcom lost the source code.

>>3468254
Megaman 6 is my personal favorite, although it might be a bit of nostalgia.
