this is how mega man is supposed to be played.ive been following mega since 1987 and you made me proud bro.

i love that they took the time to make an oldschool sequel to mega man. and i really hope that they continue to do so. i feel like theres a huge market for videogame throwbacks (but not remakes) of old franchises that oldschool gamers used to play. this one, in my opinion, was done perfectly; same antagonist, same protagonist, similar enemies, same mechanics, new enemy types, done! the game was so good as it was. improve what exists and call it by the same name, remake it? call it something else

Oh man, that's a dick move... turning extra lives into enemies.

... two Devils at once. Pure evil.

@LoelDittFisk The video length and run time are two different things. As you see at the end of the video, the in game timer is 0:26:30. The game doesn't count a lot of things towards the timer, such as stage intro, stage select, pause menu, boss entrance, etc.

Old enough! It's poetry in motion She turned her tender eyes to me As deep as any ocean As sweet as any harmony Mmm - but she blinded me with science "She blinded me with science!" And failed me in biology

@Zeromusmetal If you want to know some of the methods we use at SDA, here's what you can do: Go to Speeddemosarchive[dot]com, then click on Knowledge Base. Then go to the section that says "Getting Started: Recording a" and click "Console game".

Your jokes are what kept me entertained. Your amazing skill is what kept me excited!

@sagacious03 No, TASVideos uses Mega Man. SDA uses Quake (which the site was originally solely about). P.S. I'm not actually retired. It was a joke. I was only gonna "retire" from running Mega Man 9. As you can see by looking at news updates on SDA, I'm still very much active.

man, those annotations... 2008 was really something

Because my time got waxed by Satoryu. Even if it did, it got mixed reviews from the verifiers. This is one of those games that there's a lot of high expectations, and I guess I didn't deliver on them. There's a thread in SDA's new Verification Information forum that explains the thoughts of the verifiers and the staff about my run. I suggest you go read that.

great work, man! You gave me some good pointers ;)

That sir was an AMAZING run.

Doctor Willy defeated by one bee that went, bzzz... hahaha that sound cracks me up.

I've got a lot of stuff to work on, and being beaten by 2 minutes is a large margin. I may come back to this someday, but for now, I'm done. There's plenty of new awesome stuff that'll be coming to SDA soon, so just keep your eyes out for it. :)

Dancing Mega Man huh? Hmm, not bad. Not bad at all. I wonder if I could hire him for bachelorette parties. I'd gladly pay him in M-tanks!

yeah megaman 10 is confirmed. it's gonna be sick, your gonna be able to play as megaman, protoman, and a 3rd unannounced character.

Daaaamn dude that was epic

You know, if megaman would have just stuck a bullet in Film's brain after the first game, this would have been a non-issue.

insane, congrats

I learned some cool things from this video. I never know the Jewel Satellite could reflect shots back at the enemy and damage them with said shots, or there could be 2 Concrete Shots on screen. Tornado Blow is great for a jump boost, btw. Just a suggestion: I always found Tornado Blow to be the most effective weapon against Hanabiran (the flower mid-boss in Hornet Man's level). You have to be careful not to jump when you first fire it, or you'll go right into the bar (or the spikes).

Nice work doing this Speed Run; A GREAT way/game for you to kick off your retirement from Speed-Running!! Ironically, doesn't SDA use an animation of Megaman as their logo/eye-catch-thingy??

good job man, entertaining

@Standard420247 I can't remember what I was talking about __8 months ago__ when I made that comment, but I assure you it wasn't meant to be offensive. This run is awesome.

@Blazingwheel Please read the FAQ on the main page.

I like to use the magma bazooka on Wily's first form, since the odds of missing with it are far lower. However, I do see you use it against his third form when he's up high. Probably a better idea, if your megabuster aim/timing is not as crappy as mine. :P

The refight order was mostly a plan, though I do believe I had a brain far at the end on how to handle the last two, mainly in regards to when to use the M-Tank. In case you didn't notice, outside of Jewel Man, if you went around the room, it's in weakness order going clockwise. Just basically move Jewel Man's teleporter to the top center and there you go.

bro,wonderful.ive been following rock since 1987 and i am very proud of you! i would love to see some of mega man 5 sppedruns from you! i no speedrunner so i cant even come close although i ve have beaten all megas even have the wily wars and my old mega man by apogee software !

@dumdudidum You automatically get it after the 5th boss. If you're playing at Proto Man, you get ProtoJet from the start.

THE MIGHTY WILY, DEFEATED BY HORNETS.

Beedrill used Poison Sting. Critical Hit. Dr. Willy fainted.

lol, did you plan the achievements at the end? by the way, great run.... if only i can go that fast -_-

Nice job man! You're a very good player! Mega Man is a very difficult game.

Killed by a freaking bee... Great way to go...

good luck out there =)

@ 8:24 nice shot buddy! JK awesome job man.

@arcader30 Somebody needs to check my uploads more often.

I lol'd when he got defeated by the bee...

the bg for the first part of this vid reminds me of billy joel we didnt start the fire

i think dr.wily has a Gutmans fetish...XD. excellent job on the speed-run.

No, I don't do sprite sheets.

No, Zero isn't created until a century after this game.

@Thomas Storff That's the whole idea, dude.

oh my god is the great dragon of space 11:59

megaman: he can take lazorzzz like a champ

I think somebody did one, hacking out Mega Man V on the NES to do that, since it had water physics (and even a screen that MM9 ripped off).

bro that was insane fucking amazing i already played like 4 hours straight and i'm at the beggining of dr. willy's i just bought it though i don't feel that bad i'll get better! but ur a monster 4 sure!

Thanks

Did you ever complete any hard challenges in this game?

I guess I made a BEEline for the ending, huh?

Fail at 5:01...but you make this game look way too easy. Great run.

E-Tank GOOOOOO!!!

Insta-like at Dr. Light in the makeshift hot-tub.

This music theme sounds like the music from Double Dragon II/III on the NES

jawesome

Hornat Man is so Cute :)

12:00 tennis match to the DEATH

SDA - Speed Demos Archive

is the record on 00:26:30 or what? I thought that you would have completed it on 26:30 but this was like 47. with credits and intro.

6:54 BUMO!

@sgc316 this was really hard for me when i first got it but now it's a lot easier

At 6:01 I was like, wow 3 lives. Something big must be going down soon. But then I remembered oh yeah, it's Capcom. Their assholes xD

Thanks, but as I said from the get go, this is my last time running it.

great run, MEga Man is not an easy game to beat.

what the hell is that yoshi's egg doing there?

It makes absolutely no sense why you'd re fight all of doctor lights robots in doctor willys castle.

10:56 THAT SOUND FOR SO LONG

I've played and beaten all of the MM Original games (yes, including Rockman & Forte). Personally, I didn't like 4-6. I liked 9 much more then those 3 games.

14:03 it looks a bit like a credit card :P

*cough* Thats what im hoping for *cough*

Plug Man = Outlet Mall

9:58 looks like a flashman

hornet vs evil giant robot- HORNET WINS!!

@brianreal that was corny as shit lolololol but its megaman so its acceptable lol

02:44 to 03:44 reminds me of the whale from MegamanX5

Wait don't u fight Zero in this game?

RESPECT CAN YOU PASS THE GAME FOR ME?

@ekosterful ich denke er hat das haupt- und wafffenmenü nicht mitgezählt

@heroteen16 *cough* BASS

is nen bissel länger als 26:30^^ aber echt hammer sonen spiel fast koplett ohne fehler in speedrun durchzukriegen respekt^^

please you play megaman 10 speed run...... ^_^

Can not unrealize.

I give your reply a 1/10, due to really bad English. I hope it's not your native language. Especially since you didn't read the fact that I've stated that I've been beaten in my attempts to do a run.

MM9 i exceptionally BAD.......... only cool new weapon was the black hole

he is suck. but i like this game bgm espcly boss

lol at fake 1ups

Please come back when you know how to formulate a proper sentence.

@Catastrophe573 0% of yours are

bro,wonderful.ive been following rock since 1987 and i am very proud of you! i would love to see some of mega man 5 sppedruns from you! i no speedrunner so i cant even come close although i ve have beaten all megas even have the wily wars and my old mega man by apogee software !
