For those who are using emulator and are having hard time playing this game in a slower speed, simply change the country to USA, it will make the game run at normal speed

Megaman: The Wily Wars has been officially confirmed that it's coming to the SEGA Genesis Mini Edition.

Super Mario All Stars Megaman style.

When you were jumping on those four platforms at the beginning of Elecman's stage that was PERFECT timing with the song. Awesome! :)

The SEGA Genesis Mini brought me back here.

Play at 1.25 speed. It's normal now.

Honestly, out of all of the Mega Man games that I have ever played, The Wily Wars is definitely one of them. Also, I set the video to 1.25 speed and it actually seems closer to the NTSC speed. Not perfect, but better than the PAL refresh speed. I am grateful that the emulator that I used with this game played it at the NTSC rate.

Honestly, I like the fact of how the music is so slow, It kind-of makes it sound better

Play in 1.25 speed to make more like the Nintendo version..

Omg i remember back playing this 2008 😓

good work, appreciating the music tracks to the fullest. thanks! u truly are a connaisseur. this european slow version takes me back,...

I don't care what anyone says, I still love playing these versions!

3 games in 1. Yes it will be included in Mega Drive Classic!!!

At least here when the title says "Mega Drive Longplay", it's accurate for a change. Wily Wars at 50hz would make it NOT "Genesis".

Hehehe the menu theme song was so happy that it would be perfect for a Mega Man's Vacation game.

You don't think, what proto man here is a bit SMALL?

30:40 every time with the electric drums even on the Sega genesis.

And now imagine how awesome and fast paced this would've been on the super Nintendo. The music, that is....and most likely the gameplay too.

I love the revamped music for the wily stage boss battles in mega man 1. It sounds so much more menacing.

All of the music pieces on here are like the super cool versions of the originals. The nes music sounds like awesome rock n roll, something to be played on a electric guitars but the music here sounds like something almost disco in a way. Just listening to it makes me want to put on a fur coat and walk around with a gold cane. Superfly!...... Megafly!

One of the best Megaman ports!

Man, that music kicks ASS!!! Especially the Ice Man and Bomb Man stages. Beautiful!!! But.... that's just me. I still love that Genesis sound.

50hz version? Music sounds really slow.

I kinda like the slower version of the soundtracks

6:20 You got Rolling Cutter 9:26 You got Super Arm 13:00 You got Thunder Beam 15:56 You got Ice Shredder 19:24 You got Fire Blast 23:11 You got Bomb Lobber 45:56 You got Atomic Fire 50:52 You got Leaf Shield 54:34 You got Air Shooter 58:35 You got Crash Bomb 1:01:48 You got Quick Boomerang 1:05:19 You got Time Stopper 1:09:05 You got Metal Blade 1:12:31 You got Bubble Lead

The return of the Spin Boys.

Oh my gosh!!! I have been looking for the music from 20:02 for over 25 years! I finally found it!! YES!!!

i need this now!

So glad I bought the Genesis Mini this game is a gem!!

Does anyone feel like the bosses shoot at you way less often in this version as in the NES versions? Like, I know this is obviously suffering from sort of slowdown overall, but usually the Alien in Mega Man 2 takes three shots at you each time it completes one side of its figure-8 path, but here it's only shooting once.

"Mega Drive Longplay". This is for the Sega Mega Drive. =)

Super Megaman All Stars. :3

the nes versions of those games is soooo good what is this the music in slowmo ?

@ Valis77 At 8:20 - What was that little backtrack/enemy re-spawn maneuver all about? Just having fun, _(how _*_DARE_*_ you!?)_ or was there another reason? I'm enjoying your liquid play style by the way!

Why this didn't get a U.S. release is beyond me. Capcom lost a golden opportunity to bring in more money. Who WOULDN'T want a 16-bit remaster of the first 3 entries of the Mega Man franchise?

I like how they used the effect in FireMan's stage it must be THAT HOT! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

@MrPhillz This is the PAL version. And why would it be faster on SNES?

10:00 ^_^ Music of my Childhood

dat sega music o.O

I’m really happy Fire man no longer goes up to you, stays in one place, then spams Fire

Does anyone know if this game saves once you reach Dr. Wily?

was the console valis played this on modded for s-video? or is it emulation or something like that?

I am stoked that retrobit are releasing megaman the wily wars collectors edition for the sega megadrive it includes megaman 1,2 & 3 plus when you complete all three games you unlock wily towers 😀 never released in Europe!! I have preordered my copy cant wait 🤗

@spoonshiro They did for the PS2. It is the first eight Megamans, with two fighter versions to unlock. They are direct ports as well, not cheesy remakes. I have it myself, it brought back some memories for sure.

At first, I didn't appreciate it. But its an interesting take on the NES classics. Its definitely growing on me. The lag during certain boss fights can be a bit unbearable, at times, though.

The nes soundtrack still sounds better.

There was a US NTSC version of this, but only through the Sega Channel subscription service.

@cubex55 Do you really believe Capcom initially had plans to release this compilation for the Super Nintendo as well, given the popularity of Super Mario All-Stars, which itself of course is a compilation of the first four 8-bit NES Super Mario games (the fourth is the Japanese SMB2, essentially just a continuation of SMB1, and is thus not to be confused with our version that was derived from Doki Doki Panic).

I've always wanted to play this game I hope they re-release it

retro gaming in the retro era?This be madness

Mega Man the Wily Wars on the Sega Genesis Mini is a win-win!!!

If you think this music sounds bad. You are either insane, or crazy. Or both.

Put the speed to 1.25 if you want to hear the music at the same speed as it was in the OG games.

@deadlygroove1 Yeah, NES, and Genesis games this happened to a lot, Sonic the Hedgehog is another prime example. The PAL version has slower tempo-ed music, something about the TV refresh rate back in those days. These days games offer a 50MHz-60MHz option, so games run much better now.

The soundtrack reminds me of the sonic 3 & knuckles soundtrack.

I played the original version this looks like a freaking cake walk!

Nice

I love the sega instruments

Why megaman is bigger than proto man and sniper joe🤔🤔

did they change the strategy for the wily dragon, or does this person not know you can kill him by staying on the top platform and spamming your buster?

Wiki says that there was a US version released but exclusively though the Sega Channel service. I wonder if there's a rom dump of that version..

why is it that everyone comments on the sound but, not the graphics? the graphics ARE better but, however the sound is worse. they should have had these 3 games in the upgraded graphics on the PS2 collection. they should just re-release this w/ the original soundtrack.

At 9:56, it nearly sounds like "Faithfully" by Journey.

@deadlygroove1 No problem, a few friends of mine from PAL land pretty much told me about stuff like this years ago, educated me at that time as well.

People can say that you can turn the US region to play with normal speed but this game has such a wimp optimisation so it feels pretty much like 50hz even at 60hz.

Megaman so cool

The FM instruments used in this game Are the same ones usedin Sonic 3

there wasn't a part in FireMan's stage where you can just come out a hole in the original version you can glitch through it REALLY EASY TO PULL OFF.

Do You Still Have Wily Wars For Wii U Virtual Console?

This game wasn't technically released in US (released through the Sega Channel service). PAL Mega Man games were known for being slightly slower than other regions. Not sure why. Later MM games were fine.

Did the guy who made the disappearing blocks quit? They were obviously the back wall popping out. And to anyone who didn't know, look at a playthrough of the original and see. It is the back wall

Is it me or does the sn76489 sound channel sound strange in this video?

Idk it just seems like Capcom just suck at making games on the genesis. I'm not saying they're bad it's just that Capcom developers seem to be better with SNES hardware than the Genesis. but if you look at Konami, they have done a Great job on both genesis & snes.

Honestly guys, even though the music is slower, I honestly like it as much as it is in the original tempos. While the NTSC version's music is more rock&roll-ish, (haha, see what I did there? For those of you who are aware of the names in the Japanese version of Megaman will get it...) the PAL version sounds a lot groovier. I know I may be the only one who likes the music here, but I just wanted to say it. Although I do admit, some of the SFX were not on par with the ones in the original NES.

People that love Dr Wily might like this hack!!! And that's me, i love it

September 19th is gonna be good

@matthewdoucette Yep, that answers your question.

I like the backgrounds of the stages though.

I never knew this game existed.

Why are you playing the PAL release There is a thing called well idk

Well, you cannot blame the company. Its the Genesis' Sound chip that has even ITS limits. --'

I like This Version Than The NES Versions but the game speed is a little bit slow but the Music & The Game Designs KICKS!

This must be the PAL release, just by the music I can hear the game is slowed down

i wish they had used the guitar sound like in Thunderforce 4 for this game

@matthewdoucette Because he's using the European version, the Japanese version has faster music although there is a patch for the European version of this game floating around somewhere.

This version is PAL Europe and because this, slower.

They started PAL optimizing the Mega man games for NES from the third game and onward. That means that back in the day, if you had played the NES games before this, then 1 & 2 had the right speed but 3 was too slow.

OMG it's the Guts Dozer- DEAD

The music playing at about the 11 minute mark sounds an awful lot like the chorus for Faithfully by Journey.

What happened to that "Blast Proccessing" Sega?-_- I tried this on an emulator, and they actually made MM1 harder. They did away with the foot holder glitch, but added more foot holders (there were 4 of them on the screen at once anyway) and those damn flying penguins are relentless they spawn a lot faster than the original 8 bit game. The hit detection on Ice Mans projectile was ASS!!! Next to impossible to jump between them like in the old game. Three shots and your dead. I made it as far as Yellow Devil, and they made him even more difficult. His body parts now fly across the room in groups of 2.

It runs absolutely fine if you set the BIOS to NTSC or JPAL

Wrong (maybe not completely). US NTSC version was released, but only on Sega Channel. US cartridge version does not exist.

There are plenty of games that use the Genesis sound chip well and don't sound this bad.

When you order the MegaMan OST from Wish.

Metal Man

Alright Let’s See If They Improved Mega Man 3- Oh God Damnit Spark Man

There is no point of comparison tbh, the first 3 megamans on the NES were the product of the co-creation of a hungry Inafune and team, that type of inspiration often lasts a limited amount of time, furthermore, Inafune says this was outsourced, check the wikipedia entry for Wily Wars.

Having now watched the entire thing, I realize now that I should not have been complaining about the framerate when the player's complete lack of skill is so much more cringeworthy than any framerate issues could ever be.

eur version?

It looks like Mega Man 1 with improved graphics but it still looks more 8-bit than 16-bit.
