it's a level-based platforming shooting game with pretty open levels that are designed to be revisited later with more gadgets so you can find hidden items and secrets

the ps2 games are very good, the ps3 games are good too but less charming and funny

The Nendoroid proportions but maybe with the head a little bit smaller would be cool for a new Megaman game, I'd say. That new megaman game that will definitely exist, for real guys.

Was looking at the MM7 sprites and decided to see if I could make one look a bit less, well... MM7. Never been great at pixel art but I think it's come out OK.



Took the back hand from one of the walk frames and reshaded it, the boots I just brought in one pixel at a time until they didn't look ridiculous, then for the head I used the half-teleported sprite as a base and did what I could, then stuck it a bit higher up and further over than the original's. Also dropped the weird blue collar since it's not consistent across art whether he has it or not - even just looking at my desk, my Amiibo doesn't have it but my Nendoroid does. Still not entirely happy with the face but everything I try seems to make it worse so I'm calling it good enough for now.

What do you lot think?

Eh.

I personally really don't like MegaMan's sprite in MM7 to begin with anyways.
I quite like this 16 but rendition though:

Yes, but ever so slightly easier than the SNES version due to the smaller sprites making it a bit easier to dodge is homing shots. By "a bit easier", I mean that I ended the fight with an E-tank left instead of having to use all of them like in the original.

I'm not gonna front like Wily's easy in Mega Man 7, but if you really get the pattern down he doesn't really stand a chance. It involves a lot of annoying weapon switching, tho.

I finally beat Mega Man 7 yesterday and it grew on me a bit. Some of the Wily castle bosses were fun, and I can see one of them inspired one of the Shovel Knight bosses.

Is that FC remake something you can play on a real NES or is it some PC game thing?

I think I'm going to play the Game Gear one next.

Slightly harder since Thunder Bolt cheese doesn't work on him anymore. That difficulty curve is higher than Velgauder Sigma.

It's a fan game so PC only, they also made one for Mega Man 8 as well.

Your mileage may vary. I used charged Wild Coil shots and I found the demake version slightly easier than the original. Difficulty, like fun, is entirely relative.

I know we're all past MN9 since it was "released" a month ago, but I see it's still not out for Linux (and Mac?) and it's even to the point where SteamOS/Mac has been removed from its Steam page. MN9 isn't "better than nothing", since for me, it's still nothing.

I did finally finish Mega Man 2 for :siren: my girlfriend :siren: since she helped me hang up the 8 Robot Masters artwork that has been posted here.

Takeaways:
I hadn't finished it because I recently got an HDTV and didn't have it on "game mode" so that millisecond delay matters, especially on Quick Man's stage...
I was so rusty at it overall.
Boobeam Trap still poo poo.
Forgot how much of a PITA it is to refill Crash Bomb with all the Sniper Joes and Sniper Armors before aforementioned Boobeam Trap.
