Rules: Beat the game

After finishing the original Mega Man I decided to play through the entire classic series, which goes up to Mega Man 11 as of the time of this recording. I think this one is really good but I kind of have mixed feelings about the four "dock robots". Hadn't beaten this game since I was a kid so it was fun to go back and revisit it, especially since I remembered most of the boss weaknesses. After playing through the first two Mega Man games, this one had some noticeable delay when jumping though. It wasn't too difficult to get used to but it tripped me up a few times, especially during the Magnet Man fight. Here are some highlights:

1 hour, 29 minutes, 40 seconds - I noticed more than one area in this game where although unlikely, you could potentially softlock yourself by running out of Rush Coil and Rush Jet.

1 hour, 36 minutes - Wily's name is misspelled here. Great job. Also I guess he ran off with Gamma. Who is that? Maybe it was in the instruction manual. I'm sure we will find out in the end.

1 hour, 36 minutes, 30 seconds - Here's another example of a potential softlock situation although you'd really have to try to do it.

1 hour, 57 minutes - This area looks like a face. Very good.

2 hours, 30 seconds - I'm pretty sure this spiked fist is supposed to hurt you, but I guess it just pushed my Rush Jet. That was close. Also where does it start you if you die here? If it's one room back and the items are either gone or are not enough to fill your weapons to a level that you can kill the boss, then you'd probably have to just get a game over to refill everything. I hope that isn't the case.

2 hours, 1 minute, 30 seconds - Another case of a misspelled name. Whatever. Time to rescue Gamma now right? No? Ok. Well at least we get to see a numbered list of robots made by Dr. Right. Whoever that is. Can't be Dr. Light can it? Maybe it's that green haired guy from Sim City...nah different spelling.

2 hours, 3 minutes - What is that flying into the tree? Is that Wily's ship in the background? If so then why does it stop there? Seems kind of odd. Maybe it's Dr. Right.

...Next up is Mega Man IV...
