I honestly don't know how you guys play so many of these Mega Man games. I only beat two of them and I'm not sure I want to play more.

>>9408261
The weirdest thing is people seem to overwhelmingly think this game is better than 8

>>9408410
It is

>>9408261
sorry for your shit taste op

>>9408261
Probably has something to do with being made by Gameboy devs

>>9408261
It's still better than all of the X series

>>9408261
>take good game
>call it dogshit
>don't give a single reason why
>post the thread
I'm shock at how unbelievably garbage you are

I don't understand this hyperbolic hatred for the weaker entries in storied franchises. Taking Mega Man 7 as its own title among the SNES library, it's fine, even good. In fact it's flaws are only highlighted when compared with the rest of the series.
>>9408410
8 is better than almost half the classic series.

>>9408745
He's more determing and pissed in 7, look at him. He's like
>that's it, that faggot Wily is really getting it this time

>>9408410
better than 8 is not that hard of an accomplishment

>>9408658
Hes right though.

I don't see any quality differences in classic Megaman except the graphics getting constantly worse (R&F being an exception).

>>9408763
>these percentages
Stay in school, kids

>>9408765
You got a bit of his cum on your lips might want to try a napkin
OPs this bad should get you a lifetime ban. At least give ONE FUCKING REASON why you think it's bad. Is ONE too much to ask for? Fuck I hate you cunts

>>9408763
8 isn't that good but man that's the third most autistic image i've ever seen

>>9408261
It's a sequel to the Game Boy games, and so it's designed in the exact same way. Same sprite proportions, same ideas behind the level design, same screen size. You might say they could have just used the NES sprites to get rid of screen crunch or whatever, but not only would that change how the game works, such as how quickly the bullets you shoot leave the screen, how long they can travel, how early the enemies can appear, but it would also require reworking - this isn't just some case of a port from Master System to Game Gear, it's the opposite, the game was designed around the resolution. As for quality, I see a lot of people here mention how the games get worse the more cramped they get, but I'd argue that the NES games are nowhere near as genius or fun as, say, >>9408763 implies. You can cherrypick a screenshot from a situation like this, but then just look at a ton of other rooms in 3 where seeing more just means there's a ton of empty space. There are a lot of times where the NES games end up being easier and more boring than the GB ones because of this, as instead of doing what the post implies, they usually use it to make sure you aren't crowded with enemies and can handle them with relative ease. The Game Boy games on the other hand require you to deal with a lot of close calls and deadly situations where you have to understand the game to be good at it consistently, and while they did go into the absurd territory with 3 (stages like Dust Man, Dive Man), 4 and 5 got the perfect balance - 7 is just that perfect balance with an amount of polish, secrets and cool moments (like the ton of unique weapon usages in it) that the Game Boy games simply couldn't have.

>It's a sequel to the Game Boy games, and so it's designed in the exact same way.
Holy fuck I can't stop laughing, you actually wrote this and kept going hahahahahaha holy shit dude

>>9408841
You know I never thought of this, but it kind of makes sense since this is the first game that only lets you select from four out of the eight bosses first, which started on the Game Boy.

>>9408841
>It's a sequel to the Game Boy games
Do you guys just come up with stuff in your head and brainwash yourselves into believing it?

>>9408928
>>9408841's point was related to how Minakuchi Engineering (who did the GB games) was the rumored co-developer that Capcom hired to rush through the game's developed.

8 is worst, 7 is great and you suck cocks.

This website is pretty reliable, there is no MM7 on their page

>>9408410
>>9408525
It's not.

>>9408928
>>9409094
They have a similar screen ratio, some extremely similar enemies that to my knowledge never appeared in any of the other games (like 7's Stegorus being a more advanced equivalent to GB 5's Armaroid), stuff like Super Mega Man's charge shot being GB 5's knuckle weapon, the shop which first appeared in GB 4 and 5 returned in 7, serving the same function and allowing you to buy items in the same way, and most obviously, the split of robot masters in two sets, with an intermission stage in-between.
>>9409118
This list isn't full, as it was proven that they have developed some other games, one of those being X3. There is no confirmation that they were the external development studio that helped with 7, but I believe that to be the case because of the many things in 7 being so similar to their previous works.

Unironically you guys probably just have babby nostalgia since nobody cared or played 2D games in the PS1 era

I really enjoyed 7. Some people have some weird hateboners.

>>9408763
this chart isn't even constructed correctly

>>9408928
>>9409094
these posts reek of a kneejerk reaction
it's generally a sign of intelligence to entertain an idea even if it sounds initially absurd

>>9408261
How? It's great. In fact I liked as much as 3 and 4 and more than 5 and 6.

>>9408407
weebs

>>9408407
I was the same way, so I spaced them out over several years. Whenever I got the itch to play one I would try the next in the series (or try my hand at beating 1 again)

>>9408793
Isn't that how you do it? Am I retarded for not seeing what's wrong with this chart?
>If you have a 2D tiny box inside of a 2D big box
>and you measure the small box to be 1/5 the width and 1/3 the height of the big box
>you multiply width and height to get the area that the tiny box takes up, which should be 1/15 the area of the big box (0.067%)
Unless you mean why are they not ordered by percent, I think these are sorted by release date

>>9408763
This doesn't make sense.

Cope

>>9408763
based and truthpilled chart

>>9408261
I never trust anyone who dislikes MM7, it's a top 3 entry for me.

>>9408407
they're fun

VII is probably the best one desu. anyone who rates it low cannot be trusted when it comes to MM games.

>>9410190
1/15 is 0.067, which is 6.67%.

>>9408745
This pic makes it look like MM is on the left of the screen on NES which is wrong

also people tend to forget/not realize that the 16 bit era and especially the early 16 bit era were all about "OMG BIG SPRITES THIS IS AWESOME", it was like the "OMG 3D" of the next generation.

>>9410763
I know that it's not confirmed, I've just used it to explain why the game is so different from the NES ones and why it's designed that way: even if you can prove that Minakuchi Engineering has not worked on it, it shares a lot of design similarities with GB 4 and 5, even down to the level design, and I've managed to understand that from playing those games. If you want to prove me wrong in terms of how 7 is designed, feel free to.

>>9411074
This is complete bullshit. The reason why the screen ratio is the way it is is because of two reasons: the resolution of the SNES, and the fact that big sprites were the new hottest thing at the time thanks to new hardware capabilities. This trend of "omg big sprites" is even visible on late NES games, NES games made after 16 bit machines were out.

>>9410847
That's just mental illness at that point.

>>9408749
>determing
That's not a word.

I am the ultimate authority on Mega Man and I say that all Mega Man games, 7 included, are good. If you disagree, you are a dick-slurping faggot.
/thread

>>9411178
I have slurped dick so I guess I am a dick-slurper but I am a (real) woman so that also makes me based lol

>>9408261
bad opinion.

>>9411117
It is really easy though, just compare 7 with X

>>9408261
It's good, you just wanted megafag (will never have se)X 2 because you have shit taste and are a gigantic cock sucking faggot.
Fuck you dude, seriously.

Only trannies do that. I WANT MORE MEGAMAN X I WANT TO MOVE SLOW AND FIGHT DULL FAGGOT BOSSESS BECAUSE I AM A RETARDED. Yeah? Go play your overrated piece of shit X for the billionth time. Let the cisgendered ADULTS play the superior megaman franchise - the classic one.

Fucking dumbass. 7 is GREAT. It had fresh ideas, the level design and boss AI was better than in 6, no bullshit secrets like the previous 2 games. Hell, the 4 by 4 stage select is a great idea. Becuase hte levels are HARD. Kinda like 8. But what would you know, you cum guzzling, shit eating, faggot. Go play your snoring simulator for the billionth time cocksucker. X is a faggot and zero is a tranny LOL. Cry about it.

literally what?

>>9411627
holy shit xfags btfo

>>9411048
It's obviously zoomed in, but the proportions still match, even from the photo you posted. Plus, on screens that don't scroll Mega Man can be off center of the screen. So no matter how you look at it, you're the one who's wrong.

>>9408261
I can't stand that it takes forever to start, or is that 8?

>>9408410
7 is weird but not bad. 8 is just plain awful and only nostalgiafags and people with boners for bad voice acting would defend it

>>9413812
This. The best I can say about 8 is that it's Japanese intro is amazing. Well, that and that the new Roll outfit is good.

>>9413942
>and that the new Roll outfit is good.
My nigger

>>9408261
Capcom SHOCK, India ROCKS

It's really bad, bosses are braindead and level design is boring. the best 16bit mega man is MM&B

>>9408261
It was made in 3 monhs

>240x224
This is wrong
NES is 256x240

>>9409103
Minakuchi didn't work on the game since they were busy doing MMX3 you retard

>>9411117
>the resolution of the SNES
Was 256x224 which was lower than NES which was 256x240
You're right about the rest though

>>9416570
he didn't which two he played, he could've played those two
i mean i doubt it but ya know it's not outta the question, maybe he wanted to try one game from each series

>the GnG level complete with music
>Freeze Man waiting your move, taunting you and posing
>all the hidden stuff Rush can dig out
>changing the weather in Cloud Man stage
>burning the forest in Slash Man stage to find Beat
>activating machinery with Cloud Man weapon
>the secret Proto Man boss & shield
>the optional Rush adaptor
>the fight with Bass with his own adaptor

MM7 is SOVL overload.

>>9416654
Did the non-Nintendo Legacy Collection version remove the Gameboy? I know they removed the Famicoms.

>>9416671
Yes it removed both.

>>9416572
Oh no, you think my opinion is comical, I must be wrong!

>>9408261
I unironically dont get the hate for this game. Yes I understand turbo retards sperg out over the image cropping but I never cared desu i thought it was fun with the exception of the bullshit final willy form.

>>9416587
>Was 256x224 which was lower than NES which was 256x240
>You're right about the rest though

That was my point though. The SNES has a lower resolution. So even an object of the same size would use a bigger ratio of the screen.

>>9408261
Bad snes is still better than most of whats coming out these days

7 is one of the best games in the series, I came to this conclusion by simply playing the game for myself and forming my own opinion instead of finding out what somebody on youtube thought. Only 4 and 9 are more enjoyable.

>>9408407
>I honestly don't know how you guys play so many of these Mega Man games.
they've only been out for literal decades

and as a teenager, a summer with Mega Man Anniversary collection meant that I was able to complete every game in the series in about 3 months time.
