It exists as a fan game. I played it. Only 3 bosses, not much dating. I don't rememer what it was called, but it included Air Man, Heat Man, and Quick man.
Damn, you beat me to it. But yeah, that arc was great. And hopefully when they begin the arc based on MM4, that'll be even better! ...yeah, I'm sure the next issue will come out any day now...
I've been where you are. Buying the board game, looking for weird spinoffs, anything just to chase the high of those halcyon days when they let us think Legends 3 was gonna happen. Nothing's gonna be good enough, Austin. You need to quit cold turkey. Eventually you'll learn to love again.
Super Adventure Rockman really isn't very violent, I bet Inafune was just mad that he didn't have any control over it, honestly :P For what it is it's alright, it's worth existing for the cutscenes alone, it's like watching a cool Rockman OVA (One that you know, isn't educational, or in the real world lol)
Look up the Chinese-only Rockman Strategy, with all the robot masters based on the Constellations. You'll want to strangle me, probably, but at least I know I've subjected at least one other person to this.
What I love about your videos is that you touch on games people rarely talk about. As an enthusiast of all (gaming) things underrated and obscure, I really appreciate you doing this.
Yes timeline wise power fighters is the last time we see classic megaman and light creat X before dying of cancer and Willy made zero before disappearing until megaman X5
While watching this all I could think of was the stream where you played My Little Pony's: Doctor Discord Conquest. That was a Megman 3 hack I'll never forget.....no matter how much I want to
OMG you “friggen” nailed it at 6:55. Megaman totally looks like he’s a angry customer talking to an employee (Roll) and she’s trying her hardest to please her customer. Lololol
Love that shirt! Also, awesome video! Really love the Blue Bomber, even with his awful spinoffs. Wish we could get Legends 3. TwT ...that Blackberry shmup game looked like it could have been kind of enjoyable with some tweaks.
Ooh, nice job mentioning Power Battle on the NeoGeo Pocket Color! That and the Wonderswan really were underrated as all hell. Speaking of the Wonderswan, it's a shame you didn't cover Challenger From The Future. That's a game that certainly exists!
Austin Eruption How would you feel about a Diddy Kong Racing sequel that added characters from My Hero Academia, Little Witch Academia, Kirby, The Amazing World of Gumball, Persona 5, Family Guy, Sonic, Digimon Tamers, The Simpsons, Invader Zim, Pokemon Sun and Moon anime including Serena from X and Y, Crash Bandicoot and RWBY with Haruko from FLCL, Hat Kid, Popuko and Pipmi from Pop Team Epic, Bomberman, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Beavis and Butthead also being there? Kirby is pushed as a second Protagonist to go along with Diddy Kong. Imagine racing against Akko with Izuku, shooting a missile at Gumball, Gumball, Izuku, and Akko smokig pot with their friends
I remember playing the Mega Man kart racer on my cousin's import-PS1. It was....not that memorable. The Power Battle arcade games however, I believe that also showed a silhouette of Zero in one of the endings I believe.
The last thing I expected to see in a Megaman video was Mr Blobby! O.O I’m just thankful that it was just his freaky face rather than his annoying song... which is now stuck in my head, thanks!
I played the Power Fighters 2 arcade game recently (my library has one of those bootleg arcade machines with over 500 games on it), and the Bass ending is... *WILD* Willy tells Bass, that he found the strongest material on earth, called, I shit you not, "Bassnium". Oh, and he also calls Bass a mistake
I played this game a lot over at a older friends place like 3 or 2 years ago and they had this arcade with mega man the power battle on it and I loved it I can’t remember it was properly the first mega man game I Ever played
Mega Man 3 was available for Nintendo's PlayChoice-10 arcade cabinets. A quarter bought you only so much playing time, but as far as I know, the game played as normal. I think passwords still worked, too, but I could be wrong. So the regular run-and-gun Mega Man did exist in arcade form.
I don't know if anyone mentioned it in the comments yet, but in Super Adventure Roll dying is the give up option in the game. The game over screen is way darker.
In Mexico I played the first Mega Man game on an arcade. This was back in the 90s. I believe the arcades were hooked up to an NES of some sort. I'm not sure of any other technical specifics as my Grandmother rented the arcades and I was a kid.
Yo I remember playing a pirated copy of battle and chase as a kid, and I don't remember seeing Duo as an unlockable character! I remember Wily was and his race was a major pain.
It would've been nice to hear some more about Rockman Pachislot Ability. That game is weird in every sense of the word - it even drastically changes Dr. Light.
i actually had Rockman Battle and Chase / AND Super Adventure Rockman. I got them at an anime con ages ago and for a long while, i did enjoy them. Roll's jump pretty much neutralized most of the threats in Battle and Chase. I couldn't beat Super Adventure Rockman, but i did get really far. I forget what boss i just couldn't get past. And I hated how they removed the two announcers from the US release of Battle and Chase. they were charming, even though they were very chatty during the races. If given the chance today, I'd happily replay both.
I agree Austin, Mega Man 8 was a hell of a Mega Man. Voice acting aside, it had a nice fluid feel to it and to me it was kind of jarring to see 9 &10 revert to a NES style after this. Mega Man 7 is still my favorite.
You could unlock and play Megaman Battle and Chase in the Megaman Anniversary Collection on PS2, Gamecube and XBOX so it was eventually released here sort of.
i just want a game where you get to play as Roll with a gun. and not like NT Warrior Roll, but classic Roll, throwing down her broom and picking up a real ass weapon to give her robo-brother a break and kick some ass.
Rockman Battle and Chase: technically there was a release in the US, but it was only a test market. Good luck finding a copy of that. T_T And the "robot chick's name is "Plum" Also, Super Adventure Rockman is Awesome!
The only Mega Man spinoff I've played is Mega Man X: Command Mission. I've heard that part of the Mega Man fanbase hates the game for not being another platforming game like the others, but I enjoyed it for the most part. That game was also the first game Axl appeared in so you've at least got to give Command Mission SOME credit for that!
"...but your just Ash's mom doing mom things"
id play that
"...id play that"
YOOOOOOOOO
A Mega Man dating sim with 8 Robot Masters to romance.
If you beat those, you unlock the secret Wily route.
I'd play it
Seems legit.
@Gyllen Stålson Fuse Man best boi
Shut up and take my money
It exists as a fan game. I played it. Only 3 bosses, not much dating. I don't rememer what it was called, but it included Air Man, Heat Man, and Quick man.
To give "Super Adventure Rockman" credit, it spawned a really good story arc in the Archie comic.
Damn, you beat me to it. But yeah, that arc was great. And hopefully when they begin the arc based on MM4, that'll be even better!
...yeah, I'm sure the next issue will come out any day now...
Tom Smurf any day now...(starts crying)

Wait... Your favorite main line Megaman game is 8?! I knew there was a reason I liked you. You are a man of class and renown. Good show, Sir.
you forgot to mention Megaman Battle & Chase's story mode ending was the canonic reveal that Zero was built by Dr. Wily
That's the Power Fighters arcade.
Look up the Chinese-only Rockman Strategy, with all the robot masters based on the Constellations. You'll want to strangle me, probably, but at least I know I've subjected at least one other person to this.
like, even if the game sucks, I just wanna drive Rush around IRL. he seems like he'd be a very good boy, but also a good car.
maxbyer he would bark tho
You talked about Battle Network in passing, now you need to talk about it for real
You know you want to
What I love about your videos is that you touch on games people rarely talk about. As an enthusiast of all (gaming) things underrated and obscure, I really appreciate you doing this.
HECK YES TYPING OF THE DEAD BABYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
16:15 "sexy robot chick"
*_B O N E R R A I S E D_*
Death rates have reached to a higher level critically killing everyone nearby this comment.
'30 is a BIG number, i was DEAD!' that went dark all of a sudden...
Mega Man can have some pretty bizzare Spin offs , almost as bizzare as Sonic's Spin offs.
Megaman Legends 1 and 2 are my favs from my childhood
I completed Mega Man 2 on my LG Chocolate while in highschool...and I am still eXtremely proud of that 😅
MegaMan Legends is one of my favorite MegaMan series. I will forever be salty about MML3 being canceled.
Same
Ditto damm you capcom Europe
That Mega Man Legends/64 music
Ye
Isn't power fighters the game that references Wily's creation of Zero during Bass' ending.
Yes timeline wise power fighters is the last time we see classic megaman and light creat X before dying of cancer and Willy made zero before disappearing until megaman X5
While watching this all I could think of was the stream where you played My Little Pony's: Doctor Discord Conquest.
That was a Megman 3 hack I'll never forget.....no matter how much I want to
Battle Network is the best spin off to ever spin off. I say that with supreme confidence.
You should always tell the truth like that
Except for BN 4....Bn 4 sucked.
@@raulrojas9253 Yes. Completing it would be a masochistic path.
@Sound/wave I prefer battle network myself, but Star Force 3 is quite possibly the perfect game
Star Force is the most slept on trilogy in the history of Capcom.
OMG you “friggen” nailed it at 6:55. Megaman totally looks like he’s a angry customer talking to an employee (Roll) and she’s trying her hardest to please her customer. Lololol
Love that shirt!
Also, awesome video! Really love the Blue Bomber, even with his awful spinoffs.
Wish we could get Legends 3. TwT
...that Blackberry shmup game looked like it could have been kind of enjoyable with some tweaks.
Ooh, nice job mentioning Power Battle on the NeoGeo Pocket Color! That and the Wonderswan really were underrated as all hell.
Speaking of the Wonderswan, it's a shame you didn't cover Challenger From The Future. That's a game that certainly exists!

Why
Austin Eruption what Nintendo IP would you trust Insomniac Games with?
Any of them but especially any of them.
Austin Eruption How would you feel about a Diddy Kong Racing sequel that added characters from My Hero Academia, Little Witch Academia, Kirby, The Amazing World of Gumball, Persona 5, Family Guy, Sonic, Digimon Tamers, The Simpsons, Invader Zim, Pokemon Sun and Moon anime including Serena from X and Y, Crash Bandicoot and RWBY with Haruko from FLCL, Hat Kid, Popuko and Pipmi from Pop Team Epic, Bomberman, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Beavis and Butthead also being there?

I’m so glad someone actually brought up Pachislot Mega Man.
The last thing I expected to see in a Megaman video was Mr Blobby! O.O
I’m just thankful that it was just his freaky face rather than his annoying song... which is now stuck in my head, thanks!
Actually I loved battle & chase, after a while playing you create a good car that's more easy to drive.
6:25 If the countdown goes to 0, Wily just leaves. You still "win" but you don't get a bonus.
Oh boy, it's a Mega Man!
Also you forgot to mention how Zero appeared in Bass' ending in Mega Man The Power Fighters 2
Austin-san, what about ‘Megaman X Command Mission’?!
Thanks for the content as always!
oh wow, i like bomberman fantasy race and rockman battle and chase so much lol
There's this Mega Man clone on DOS called Eol's Adventure.
Good stuff, surprised to see you got the Rush game to even work at all
Megaman effing zero... MEGAMAN ZERO 123&4. DAMN IT
I love the dragon quest spinoff monster games, in particular joker 2. That game is such an underrated gem on the ds.
Awesome piece of content. Keep up the great work! :))
Aw snap, dropping the Chip's Challenge reference
Yo that megaman cart racer looks soo close to being awesome! Bummer!
Imo it is awesome. Remember that it is his opinion and your own playthrough could feel different.
I played the Power Fighters 2 arcade game recently (my library has one of those bootleg arcade machines with over 500 games on it), and the Bass ending is... *WILD*
Willy tells Bass, that he found the strongest material on earth, called, I shit you not, "Bassnium". Oh, and he also calls Bass a mistake
man I can't believe how many you found looking forward to that game you didn't talk about here it is bound to be good
Awesome video! I’d love to get the Neo Geo Pocket version of power fighters :D looks great!
I'm so happy I found your channel
Thanks for doing this amazing video! I love megaman games but not so much!
It'll obviously be awhile, but I'm glad knowing we've got more weird Mega Man videos planned.
1:29 They Teased the Switch all Along!
Shout outs the ACDC BGM
I played this game a lot over at a older friends place like 3 or 2 years ago and they had this arcade with mega man the power battle on it and I loved it I can’t remember it was properly the first mega man game I Ever played
2:30. Is "THAT'S * PARADISE!!" actually part of this games title, or something Austin edited in?
OMG I played that Mega Man arcade game it was what introduced me to Mega Man
Mega Man 3 was available for Nintendo's PlayChoice-10 arcade cabinets. A quarter bought you only so much playing time, but as far as I know, the game played as normal. I think passwords still worked, too, but I could be wrong. So the regular run-and-gun Mega Man did exist in arcade form.
Please make a video about Megaman clones!
Yyooo, MegaMan Zero is by far my favorite spin off of the og MegaMan! Battle Network, ZX, and Star Force are all great too! :D
11:57 that song sounds like someone took a song from donkey kong country and threw it in a blender.
I don't know if anyone mentioned it in the comments yet, but in Super Adventure Roll dying is the give up option in the game. The game over screen is way darker.
05:57
>Co-Op boss rush beat'em up
I don't know about you, but that almost sounds like Cuphead.
In the power battles 2 having protoman in megamans ending is when you are playing the game with 2 players
I actually got to play that Megaman arcade game very briefly. I remember it being fun
You really gonna talk about the Power Fighters and not bring up the fact that it mentions Dr. Wily built Zero?
Ngl, a mega man soccer remake similar to Mario strikers could be phenomenal
You remember surge!!! I thought i was alone in the world when it comes to that.
I’m guessing the Protoman shield protects from all behind attacks in the cart racer
In Mexico I played the first Mega Man game on an arcade. This was back in the 90s. I believe the arcades were hooked up to an NES of some sort. I'm not sure of any other technical specifics as my Grandmother rented the arcades and I was a kid.
Austin:Realizing that Mega Man can't swim.
Me:Tell that to Mega Man 8.
I'll have you know that I like battle and chase!
Yo I remember playing a pirated copy of battle and chase as a kid, and I don't remember seeing Duo as an unlockable character! I remember Wily was and his race was a major pain.
Do not buy the Mega Man board game. It's all kinds of awful. The only good part is that the minis are well made.
Wait, is that a Soul Eater poster?!
Anyway, cool video.
It would've been nice to hear some more about Rockman Pachislot Ability. That game is weird in every sense of the word - it even drastically changes Dr. Light.
i actually had Rockman Battle and Chase / AND Super Adventure Rockman. I got them at an anime con ages ago and for a long while, i did enjoy them. Roll's jump pretty much neutralized most of the threats in Battle and Chase.
I couldn't beat Super Adventure Rockman, but i did get really far. I forget what boss i just couldn't get past.
And I hated how they removed the two announcers from the US release of Battle and Chase. they were charming, even though they were very chatty during the races.
If given the chance today, I'd happily replay both.
Fighting battle robot, *MEGA MAN!!*
Ill watch a MML2 vid 10 times on my own.
I though mega man was pronounced me gay man
Dang I was hoping there was going to be a bit about the Megaman TBS game.
Roll didn't actually die in Super Adventure Rockman. She just needed to be saved and if you got a game over, you'd get a cutscene where she dies.
Patreon credits song is from Sparkster!! Oh yeeeeah
I agree Austin, Mega Man 8 was a hell of a Mega Man. Voice acting aside, it had a nice fluid feel to it and to me it was kind of jarring to see 9 &10 revert to a NES style after this. Mega Man 7 is still my favorite.
You could unlock and play Megaman Battle and Chase in the Megaman Anniversary Collection on PS2, Gamecube and XBOX so it was eventually released here sort of.

"Super Fighting Robot , Mega Man"
Megaman Power Battle is my favorite Megaman game hands down. I own it on GameCube, but I’d love for it to be released on Switch. It’d be perfect!!!
Why is Roll in Rush Marine dressed like she's doing little mac training?
First...
Megaman was on the NES
Dirge of Cerebus...
See my comment above...
The only Mega Man spinoff I've played is Mega Man X: Command Mission. I've heard that part of the Mega Man fanbase hates the game for not being another platforming game like the others, but I enjoyed it for the most part. That game was also the first game Axl appeared in so you've at least got to give Command Mission SOME credit for that!
The megaman kart game was actually really fun.
I liked battle and chase as a teen
My 1st time getting to the sigma stages in mmx, I was in 2nd grade.
This boy's erupting.
MEGA MAN MEGA MAN!
Here we meet again
The board game is pretty solid. There is also a trading card game for both classic and battle network. The classic one is pretty interesting.
Rockman Power Fighters Forte's ending reveals Zero's blueprints
Where is that intro music from? I remember Jirard used it a lot.
Its the shop theme from Megaman Legends!
No mention of the Megaman DOS games? I'm honestly surprised
Number one rule: You DON'T kill Roll!
I like how you use PSO sound effects in your videos.
No mention of Power Battles being the first game to reveal that Zero was made by Wily?
