/vr/ - Retro Games

Since pre-rendered graphics aren't very loved by today's youth, due to it not looking good on modern displays, Mega Man will get the love with its sharp pixel art and flawless gameplay mechanics.
DKC games are, however, also amazing in gameplay department, maybe not as tight as MM, but close enough, and in its own way also, you're comparing an action-platformer with a pure platformer.
MM has the best action and amazing powerups and boss fights, but DKC has the most amount of platforming action due to its level design, and the controls are also responsive. This is not to say MM doesn't have god-tier platforming segments, but it's most designed around shooting and fighting enemies, DKC is more about the platforming (and the barrel).

Having played both series back in the day and loving both, I'll conclude that IMO, the MMX series is overall "better", but I consider DKC2 to be better than any MM game, not by much though.

Never really had a set of strategy guides.

I did get very interested in writing one though.

I don't really care, the Genesis version is much nicer.

Though personally, I've also grown into having a thing for altered Genesis controls, with a shoulder button used as one of the three buttons.

Anything else as in the Mega Man ports on DOS, for example?

Not even a port but still worth posting
