And now we go straight to Wily stage #2! This is the only Mega Man game where you don't see Wily's fortress like in all future games.
At the start of this stage, slowly move towards the edges before jumping, as these guys will easily knock you off if you jump too early.
Time for the rematch against Cutman. The only difference in this rematch is there are no bricks to throw at him or stand on. Just fire and dodge and he'll go down quick.
Another thing that only happens in this game (in the classic series) is that you fight the defeated Robot Masters in a scripted order,
Whereas in all future games you're in a room with teleporters, each one teleporting you to a Robot Master from the game.
The hole in the floor the second time around is just before the weapon capsules.
Now we have a rematch with Elecman, and like Cutman, no bricks to throw at him or stand on.
For the rematch, I instead stand on the right side.
Wait for him to get to the left firing spot and fire at him JUST BEFORE HE FIRES AND JUMP AFTER YOU FIRE.
For the full details as to what Elecman's patterns are, see Part 3 of my walkthrough.
Again, when you make the final shot, you need to move out of the way as you jump as the screen freezes slightly.
Wait for these cluster bomb things to explode on the ground and then jump across.
I can't believe I survived with one bar of health against Elecman...well you know I'm gonna die soon. Just a matter of when...
Checkpoint!!
I debated getting that 1up, as i didn't need it, per se, but I didn't want to rerecord if I had to use a continue. I had 2 extra lives before getting it. We'll see if it will make a difference...
NOW, I finally died. First time since Iceman, too.
Just wanted to be on the safe side.
Missed it by THAT much.
These guys are at just the right spots you can't destroy with just the Mega Buster without taking a hit.
I'm gonna be a little patient getting past this screen...
And now time for the boss
Allow myself to introduce...
Allow myself to introduce...myself
Welcome to the third enemy in the game that gets pushed back whenever he takes a hit.
And he follows the EXACT SAME PATTERN AS ELECMAN.
Literally. It's exactly the same, only he'll use whatever weapon you are equipped with.
So if you are equipped with the Elec Beam, he fires Elec Beams. Fire blasts, he'll shoot Fire Blasts.
However if you equip Gutsman's weapon or the Magnet Beam, he'll still fire Mega Buster shots. The Fire Blasts do the most damage to him.
And I think Ice Blasts do no damage to him at all.
Haha! I'm the best me!!
Wily stage #3. The shortest one in the game and also the easiest.
I'm gonna wait for an opening before jumping down, here.
You suck.
Come on, give me an opening...
And that's why you should jump onto those platforms...
You son of a...
Here, you can just let the current guide you down.
While it looks like I'm just firing to the beat, and I am, the actual purpose is to destroy the oncoming enemies, and the beat to the music works perfectly for this.
I'm running against the current here so I can destroy more enemies, who will hopefully drop energy capsules. Working pretty well too.
The enemies now change from the penguin enemies to the bullet bill enemies.
Sweet! A 1up!
Damn! Another one!
This boss is different from the rest in that there is an element of luck in the battle.
This consists of where on the screen he will appear. It can appear from either the left, top, or right of the screen and to my knowledge, it's completely random.
Once he appears, it will travel around the perimeter, firing these small but relatively slow shots.
It takes 9 shots to destroy each one, but the more you destroy, the faster the next one becomes.
Damn it.
Also, as soon as he starts going around the perimeter of the screen, he will ALWAYS go clockwise.
If you wait for it to appear while in the bottom-right corner, the biggest threat is if it appears from the left.
If you wait for it to appear while in the bottom-left corner, the biggest threat is if it appears from the center. Choose your location at your own risk.
There we go.
Well, just one more stage left! Hope you enjoyed the video! Like or comment below!
