IIRC, you have Right on controller 2's directional pad held in, and Mega Man can super-jump. There are a few spots where you can jump into a pit and "die" (energy at zero, explosion sound, level music stops) but you can continue to play and nothing will kill you.

Yeah...I stopped after maybe the first X game. Something was missing from them. Plus the robots were getting to be a stretch.
I thought 2 and 3 were both awesome. I agree, great music in 2. Flash man's level and aquamans level come to mind. Plus the boss tune.
Yep, the original was the hardest for that reason. If you lost all lives from a late Wily stage, you would continue from an early Wily stage.
I think my order was: Bomb Man, Guts Man, Cut Man, Elec Man, Ice Man, Fire Man
Thank goodness for the Select button trick, it sure helped against the block-built cyclops. Too bad it wasn't available when he returned in MM3.

I'm just guessing, I can't remember my order exactly, but the idea was to use the previous boss's weapon on the next one. Not sure if I got this exactly right though, I'd have to play it again

I never beat 1. I rented it...I remember I left the nintendo on for like 4 hours while my parents dragged me to a town meeting because I had only one of the robots left. There were only 6 in that one instead of the 8 I think.
I don't remember ever using any cheat codes in any of these games though. Eventually you'd figure out the system to beat the levels.

Yeah, flash man's power was for quickman...you used the timestopper on him. But flashman was so easy I always beat him first or second. Quickman was the last. His level was brutal, and he was tough to beat.
The game is the most fun during the wily levels though, when you have to use your different weapons to beat different puzzles/bosses.
MM3 was easy, although I think MM5 was the easiest.
Want to play a hard game try Jim Power: Lost Dimention in 3D

Castlevania was damn hard, but hardest game ever has to go to Battletoads.
Even with the Game Genie and infinite lives, there were these jet-ski levels that were friggin' impossible.
Edit: Mega Man 2 = Best Mega Man Ever.

lol, i'm trying to figure out if CR's intention is to piss nik off or to just reminisce about every nintendo game he's played in a separate thread in OT.
Yeah, def. the hardest for the NES, at least of the games I played. I never made it past level 3.
For the SNES, the hardest game for me was ActRaiser 2.

Yeah, that is the exact same order that I used. Bubble Man == easiest boss EVAR once you have metal
Are you kidding me? 3 was EASY! I could beat that game when I was nine years old, without any codes or any of that.
If I remember the order correctly: Top Man, Shadow Man, Spark Man, Magnet Man, Hard Man, Snake Man, Gemini Man, Needle Man.
Although I could easily start with magnet man, snake man or needle man just as well.
But yeah, if MM3 is too hard for you, put down the controller, right now. You want a hard game, give mega man one a try. Now THAT is a hard game. Evene 2 was a hell of a lot easier than 1.
Actraiser one was easy too, so youre probably thinking of two.
Castlevania 1 wasnt nearly as impossible as castlevania 3. I dont think anyone has ever beaten that one on its own. Or contra 1 without the code. Or the original zelda, without a guide.

Only game I could never beat on the original NES was Battletoads & the original Ninja Turtles (got up to the technodrome but didnt know what to do against it).

Was castlevania 3 the one on the SNES or was that called super castlevania or something? That was a really awesome game, but I did beat that when I rented it. Castlevania II was really cool, it was like a zelda II style game as much as it was castlevania.
Yeah, contra 1 was pretty tough.
