I just love how Johnny uses the Archie Comics to summarize the plot. I seriously loved that comic and it gave me a deeper appreciation for the series, and it saddens me that it died well before its time.
@@romdan7136 No, it doesn't. It works in some unique characters and takes on certain events, or even telling some original stories, but more or less sticks pretty close to the original games in terms of character and lore. I think part of that is because it was so short lived that it was never given the potential to become as utterly crazy as Archie!Sonic.
@@alexandergonyea4642 Oh, Wow. Granted, I read the MM Sonic crossover, and I thought that was pretty interesting. I'll admit though, If you wanna interest me.. Give me stories with Roll. Like, It DOES feel like she just kind of existed in a lot of games. I know she's meant to be an assistant, but come tf on. At least Powered Up gave us something.
@@romdan7136 They do a bit with her. She has some fairly interesting dynamics with different characters, like her and Kalinka - Dr Cossack from MM 4's daughter - being mistaken for sisters, and a particularly strong moment between herself and Rock in the first storyline. She even gets at least one issue dedicated to herself (a lot of this is foggy, since it's been a long time since I last read them.) That's another element where they might've done even more with her if they'd lasted longer, but at the very least it's clear that the interest in giving her things to do was there.
I think the part at 6:43 is even more hilarious since Johnny didn't even react right after nudging to get that item and ending up falling off the platform.
"HEY! CUT THAT SHIT OUT! Okay, bye! teehee" I want to see some cosplayers re-enact that little bit. Effing priceless! Love these reviews, sir! Keep 'em up!
I honestly wouldn't mind if we got a Megaman leftovers collection featuring Powered up. Along with Maverick hunter X, the Legends games, Power battle, Megaman and Bass and the racing spin-offs.
Probably already mentioned, but the term "Robot Master" (if I remember correctly) comes from the fact that these particular models of robots have the ability to command simpler, dronelike robots, which are what you're dealing with throughout the level. The intention was that each of the Robot Masters in THIS game were supposed to be like the foreman of a particular job, with the drones serving as their work force.
Hey Johnny, great review! Just a couple tips: - The Yellow Devil has a set pattern. So what I did is assign each "attack" a number up to 7. This way, you can easily memorise and dodge it consistently. - Fireman is easily no damaged by following him, because he only fires if he's far away. So if you hug him, he'll never fire.
+DashieSparkle No, it's okay to do that. Some games can take a long time, before figuring out which one you can tackle first. The level might prove to be a dead end, if you can't defeat the robot master. I wonder if one can beat Gemini Man from MM3 with only buster (without using Turbo).
+Stephen P I could, Gemini man is pretty easy, just jump over him and his clone and shoot when safe, because he only tends to shoot when you shoot him. It's when his clone disappears, that's when he gets tricky because his Gemini laser can deal a lot of damage. The one that I consider very hard with just Buster is Shadow man, I have never beaten him without the top spin.
9:37 "...and obstacles that require careful timing and reflexes..." *uses the Magnet Beam over the bed of spikes* Johnny using that editing humor to his finest~
I tried Megaman 1 first and ragequit on it. You should start with 2 and go up from there. Then go back to 1 when you think you can handle it. That's what I did.
I've been following John for over 10 years now. I discovered him in 2012. The first ever review of his i saw was Sonic 06. Go figure. And since then, i have watched his reviews multiple times, over and over. I dont think there's a asingle video of his i havent seen.
All the way in 2024 and these episodes are still enjoyable as hell. I literally will just listen to them as I do something else and they are both relaxing and utterly hilarious. “HEY! CUT THAT SHIT OUT!” “Okay! Bye bye! Teehee!” Gold.
Yellow devil seems pretty damn badass in terms of design and name. and 11:51 and as a Black guy, I see how he kinda looks like a Minstrel show, but I'm not really that offended. Hell I didn't even mind the whole thing with Mr.Popo from DBZ.
0:41 Am I the only one that despises the fact that ZX Megaman is in the very front and not Classic Megaman ya know the one that STARTED the Mega Man franchise.
Agreed. But looking back, I think it's because that's what Keiji Inafune (the MAIN Mega Man art designer) wanted Rockman to look like from the beginning. But because Blue had a better palette in the NES color library, developers made him use blue.
Mega Man and Mega Man X Switch their formula around. Mega Man: Getting to the bosses is pretty frustrating, but the bosses themselves aren’t that hard. Mega Man X: Getting to the bosses is kind of a breeze but the bosses put up a fight.
John was so ahead of his time. This was already a few years into his reviews. Taking the less gimmicky AVGN-like route and just chilled in-depth reviews. It's why I still rewatch all the old videos when I want to chill out.
Aww, it's so cute seeing somebody struggle with the game. I always think that it's easy, then I remember that I just know all of the tips, tricks, and have played it to no end xD
Actually my dad , when he thinks of capcom, he thinks of his favorite fighting game series, and only freedom and nostalgia back at his childhood in Mexico, street fighter
The controls dude. The fucking controls. They automatically make it worse than 2 and if you think otherwise you need to remove those rose tinted glasses that seem to be implanted into your face.
+Andrew Shaw Mega Man 2 is the worst of the first three games. The Wily Castle stages have too many design flaws for the last stretch of the game to ever be fun. It's overrated, and if you think otherwise you need to remove *your* rose-tinted glasses.
Johnny, this is still my favorite review by you! I come back and watch this one the most because I find so many parts of it just super hilarious, as well as it just being a great review of this game! Great job!
I'll never forget my summer of 2017. I had the legacy collection on the 3DS and was dead set on beating Mega Man 1. But because of the ass backwards way you pause on the 3DS version, i couldn't use the pause trick to beat the yellow devil. It took about an hour, but i beat him legit. And that, was probably my biggest achievement in gaming.
12:55 Same thing happened to the Vita. Unfortunately if you don't already have a ton of Vita games via PS+ or if you haven't already bought a bunch of Vita-compatible PS1 or PSP games, it's not worth the purchase if you're not an RPG gamer.
This is literally the hardest game I have EVER played. I only powered through to the end because I'm already a fan of the series. Every stage (except Fire Man) gave me SO much trouble. It's insane! The bosses are complete push overs though (Assuming your health is full, hehe) The Wily Stages are also hard (Good thing they're short!) Yellow Devil.....honestly is the easiest of the Wily Bosses. I'm just glad to be done with it. That's all...
I would honestly avoid MM1 until you're ready. I recommend MM2 which is far easier and considered the best. I've also never played MM9. My favorite is MM5, but you should go in order.
SkyR923 mega man anniversary edition for ps2, or gamecube it has megaman 1-8 and 2 jupan only games (wily wars and something else) it is vary cheap (cheaper than giting the original version) but if I have to pick one I would pick 8
The Yellow Devil is HARD, one of the hardest parts of the entire franchise, but it isn't too hard. I used to be unable to do it without the pause trick too, but just really try it. It's a difficult pattern, but it can be learned.
Really, I think the first MegaMan game alongside its PSP remake is really great and fun to play. Sure many people are scared of the series' difficulty but as you said it yourself, Johnny, there are games which are much worse than MegaMan games might ever be. Plus, I really dislike the fact that so little people were interested in the PlayStation Portable as a handheld, I own like 20 games for that thing and love every single one of these. Even though this is off topic what I am sorry for, more system sales also might have helped the MegaMan series from nowadays' view.
Good review, but your comments towards the PSP at the end kinda annoyed me. The PSP was one of the most popular systems in Japan for years, which is most likely why Mega Man Powered Up was released for it. Just a minor nitpick of mine.
Just get CFW (Pro C2 as it is easy to install as it doesn't need a pandora Battery or whatever), download a rom, put it on the PSP and play! (not as easy as that but oh well)
Well, I don't like it when people talk bullshit about old Mega Man games. (With the exception of the U.S box art) NES Mega Man was, and is, fucking awesome.
My little brother has this on his 3DS. And I played through it. And you're right it's hard. If the Virtual Console didn't have the ability to create a save state, I'd go nuts! I really loved going through Cut Man's stage though, probably because it didn't infuriate me as much as Elec Man's stage or Ice Man's. And I'm not gonna lie, I used the pause glitch/exploit. I regret nothing.
At 6:08 switch to Fire Mans ability then climb the ladder. When the pogo thing jumps at you, shoot. You have a spinning flame shield for a few seconds.
Anyone else just rewatch every johnny vid like a comfort show? Its just so calming
Me. Helps me sleep at night.
@@DoctorTex exactly!
Yes and it’s very entertaining.

Does Archie Mega Man get as insane as Archie Sonic?

Love these reviews, sir! Keep 'em up!
Considering the graphics that MegaMan PoweredUp had, it should have been re-released on the 3DS
I honestly wouldn't mind if we got a Megaman leftovers collection featuring Powered up. Along with Maverick hunter X, the Legends games, Power battle, Megaman and Bass and the racing spin-offs.
3ds games looked better then that game.
We should see a Mega Man Powered Up 2
You can have it. The Chibi art style turned me off, and they ruined the music!
Do u like kill la kill love that show
Y'know, Johnny.....just wait till Megaman X5....if you hated Yellow Devil, you'll surely hate....*shudder*
Oh my freaking god!, i just finished playing that on the anniversary collection and i know EXACTLY what you mean
Link Ilvien Then you can probably imagine Johnny's reaction when he gets around to it.
Dat zero play though
Defeating him as Zero involves smashing X at lightspeed with your thumb in the top corner of the room
Please don't remind me!
I always put his game reviews to help me fall asleep. His voice has something about it that helps me
Sleep.
Is that included with your 20 minutes of streches and warm glass of milk?
Probably already mentioned, but the term "Robot Master" (if I remember correctly) comes from the fact that these particular models of robots have the ability to command simpler, dronelike robots, which are what you're dealing with throughout the level.

- Fireman is easily no damaged by following him, because he only fires if he's far away. So if you hug him, he'll never fire.
I have an easier method for Fire Man. If you time your jumps right, you don’t even have to run!
As a child, I was always surprised that his sprite art, and in game portrait, always depicted a young boy, while the box art displays a buff trooper!
Why did Capcom make Rockman so hard?
I see what you did there. If not intentional, still funny.
lol puny
Puny? That's not very nice.
it makes sence
I see what you did there...
10 years since this video and we just on megaman zero.
Hoo boy its still a long way to go.
HEY!!! CUT THAT SH*T OUT!!! Okay, bye! Teehee!
10:40
Time for my yearly rewatch
Thank you for acknowledging Mega Man Powered Up’s existence! I’ve always loved that game so much and I never see anyone talk about it
6:47 That part always cracks me up!
Okoa it’s been since years since your comment :0
When I was younger, I would call inching along like that 'The Twitchyfoot Strategy', what a name.
Am I a cheater for looking up which order to fight the robot masters?
No
+DashieSparkle No, it's okay to do that. Some games can take a long time, before figuring out which one you can tackle first. The level might prove to be a dead end, if you can't defeat the robot master. I wonder if one can beat Gemini Man from MM3 with only buster (without using Turbo).
Taken as how you need one to complete the first Legend of Zelda, I doubt it counts as cheating.
+Stephen P I could, Gemini man is pretty easy, just jump over him and his clone and shoot when safe, because he only tends to shoot when you shoot him. It's when his clone disappears, that's when he gets tricky because his Gemini laser can deal a lot of damage. The one that I consider very hard with just Buster is Shadow man, I have never beaten him without the top spin.
DashieSparkle nope if a guide is needed to enhance your fun use it
HEY!

Ok, bye teehee!
9:37 "...and obstacles that require careful timing and reflexes..."
*uses the Magnet Beam over the bed of spikes*
Johnny using that editing humor to his finest~
I tried Mega Man once and gave up an hour later cause I couldn't pass the first stage I picked
I ragequit after loosing to the Yellow Devil 87 TIMES!I was a kid back then and sure as hell don't want to play it again
I tried Megaman 1 first and ragequit on it.
You should start with 2 and go up from there.
Then go back to 1 when you think you can handle it.
That's what I did.
Which stage did you pick? Try Cut Man first. His stage is the easiest
I found Bomb Man the easiest.
mushroomdude123 except for those damned Sniper Joes...(just use Ice Slasher)
I've been following John for over 10 years now. I discovered him in 2012. The first ever review of his i saw was Sonic 06. Go figure. And since then, i have watched his reviews multiple times, over and over. I dont think there's a asingle video of his i havent seen.
10:41 definitely one of my favorite johnny moments. laughed a lot when i was a kid while watching, and still cracks me up as an adult
This video is 7 years old?!?!?! I remember watching this video on CZcams on my 3DS 5 years ago....
Just thinking about that gives me nostalgia.
All the way in 2024 and these episodes are still enjoyable as hell. I literally will just listen to them as I do something else and they are both relaxing and utterly hilarious.

Rewatching after the Mega Man 11 announcement.
Never get tired of watching your megaman reviews they are so rewatchable XD

Or the Zero series. Hell, he would only need to buy a single game on a system literally everyone owns.
Sean Cone or the game boy megaman games

I guess now.

12:39 strange how he didn't freak out at the sight of knight roll being an OBVIOUS reference to ghost and goblins, but did in the mega man 7 review

Jesus it really has been 3 years...
***** Time flies when you're reviewing game after game, right?
And I've been playing them back-to-back for a total of 3 years after these reviews were released.
4 years now?
Jesus it feels like these videos came out yesterday...
I love that you used shots from the Archie comics to exemplify the story, I fukkin' loved that series. 😆
My first SomecallmeJohnny episode, I was looking for Megaman videos on CZcams and found John’s channel and this video.
Anyone looked up Akira Kitamura on google images?
my goodness dont search it up.
mathew why not

12:55 Same thing happened to the Vita. Unfortunately if you don't already have a ton of Vita games via PS+ or if you haven't already bought a bunch of Vita-compatible PS1 or PSP games, it's not worth the purchase if you're not an RPG gamer.
Any chance of another Sonic marathon that covers the handheld games?
Check his channel.
This is literally the hardest game I have EVER played.
I only powered through to the end because I'm already a fan of the series.
Every stage (except Fire Man) gave me SO much trouble. It's insane!
The bosses are complete push overs though (Assuming your health is full, hehe)
The Wily Stages are also hard (Good thing they're short!)
Yellow Devil.....honestly is the easiest of the Wily Bosses.
I'm just glad to be done with it. That's all...
I'm thinking of getting into this series...what game do you recommend I start off with?
i would say mega man 2 or 9

John you said Roll was drinking hot cocoa
if a robot drinks they'll EXPLODE
" I will not be covering the handhelds one day but not now" Me: IM STILL WAITING
I love the yellow devil fight honestly, this game definitely has a lot more problematic and archaic design choices than the other games overall
Yellow Devil a pain in the ass? Oh my dear Johnny..... You havent played MegamanX5 have you?
Andrew S
He just reviewed it 2 days ago, if you’re curious.
X5 devil is easier because you have Sub Tanks and you can duck
Even though yellow devil was a pain I actually figured out his pattern, and I haven't got to x5 yet but I saw the fight I'm going to dread it.
4:21-4:25 NOW GET YOU METALLIC ASS OUT THERE AND START SHOOTING SHIT UP!
2:28
> Guy is named Akira
> Almost a 'phantom'
Hah
?
The Yellow Devil is HARD, one of the hardest parts of the entire franchise, but it isn't too hard. I used to be unable to do it without the pause trick too, but just really try it. It's a difficult pattern, but it can be learned.

Samuel Heaton Well, to be frank, it looked puny compared to the Nintendo DS.
Maybe in Japan, but he is speaking to those of us who are from North America... And the PSP did not get a wide variety of games over here.
L-Y3T GTA, Killzone, Third Birthday, Gran Turismo, I could go on
+VladNorris true
As Techmoan put it, "History is written by the victors, and in terms of tech history, it's written mainly by the US."
13:20
actually, (and you will laugh at me for this) it was because of the horrible box art.
13:20
10:21 that thing is very hard to avoid getting hit.
"...Well nowadays it's like that I'm not exactly sure how game development was like in the 1880's..." 13:54
Mega Man: Powered Up looks awesome, I would love to play it! Is it really not on PSN at all!? That makes no sense...
well you could always get a rom if you want to play it that badly.
what do you mean on your pep just get a pep emulator and use a rom on your computer, if assuming your computer can run it.
Just get CFW (Pro C2 as it is easy to install as it doesn't need a pandora Battery or whatever), download a rom, put it on the PSP and play! (not as easy as that but oh well)
SUPER FIGHTING ROBOT!!! MEGAMAN!!! FIGHTING TO SAVE THE WORLD!!!
Johnny whats your take on the Mega Man Legacy collection ? :D
It’s 2020, we still don’t have sentient robots and robodogs
The gravity on Earth in Rockman's universe is intense.
MIghty Number 9!!
Well, I don't like it when people talk bullshit about old Mega Man games. (With the exception of the U.S box art) NES Mega Man was, and is, fucking awesome.
Who talks BS about the classic series? Im not aware
agree with you.I am not kiddin when i say
that i beat this 5 times in a year!
to me it´s gaming bliss. I get that brain meltdown when I´m playing it well and they're all very rewarding games to master.
Faltrazz OF COURSE

ok bye tee hee
My little brother has this on his 3DS. And I played through it. And you're right it's hard. If the Virtual Console didn't have the ability to create a save state, I'd go nuts! I really loved going through Cut Man's stage though, probably because it didn't infuriate me as much as Elec Man's stage or Ice Man's. And I'm not gonna lie, I used the pause glitch/exploit. I regret nothing.
At 6:08 switch to Fire Mans ability then climb the ladder. When the pogo thing jumps at you, shoot. You have a spinning flame shield for a few seconds.
