Not counting the non-NES games, MM4 is my favorite. Just the right amount of hard, great music, memorable stages, fun boss fights (except Toadman)
Everything classic Mega Man included, I think MMV on the Gameboy is even better for the same reasons above and then some.

When I think of classic Mega Man, the stages and robot masters from 1 come to mind but my favorite is 9 which is not retro. If we are talking retro then I guess I'll go with pic related? I dunno they are all good

2 is one of those games that's regarded as the best because it sold the most and most people have only played 2 because it's popular. Most classic MM games are not worse than 2

The real answer is 2 but as others have stated, all of the retro MM games are good. 6 is the most comfy to me, mostly for nostalgia. Any of the NES games will suffice. 1 is kinda rough for beginners but fun in its own way.

2 is my favorite next to 1. Played 3-6 but they just rubbed me the wrong way. I want to say 3-6 had more annoying enemies but that might not be true. Everyone says 1 has the most bullshit but I would say it's just the most janky. In terms of annoying stuff all of them are roughly equal

I'm that anon you were replying to, 3 and 4 are definitely the most annoying, they are harder than 1 in my opinion. Not retro but have you played 9? It's like 2 but arguably better. If anything I wasn't saying that 2 was bad by any means, there's no such thing as a bad classic Mega Man game if we are talking mainline + GameBoy

6.

I'll admit that difficulty-wise it does have soft edges here and there, and no sliding out of jumping, but it still feels good to play.

>> No.9770208

My favorites are 3 and 4 for NES, 4 and 5 for GB and 11 for (whatever console).

I felt dissapointed with the approach for MM 9 and 10, it is not that I wanted a gimmick, but it felt too simple/basic to my taste, also I found megaman & Bass too annoying for how difficult it is, if it was a little more balanced it would be on the top as well, same as megaman 6 which is the opposite for being extremely easy.

For original it’s 2.
For X it’s X4.
These are honestly the only megaman games you ever need to play. If you play them, you’ve played them all.

>> No.9772220

Classic: honestly a complete tossup between 1, 2, and 3. All of them have their merits and things I really like

X: x2. First game has a real iconic presentation but the second has a lot of little QoL changes, great level design and pacing, etc. It's just fun to run and jump through stages in a way the rest of the series struggles to manage.

Zero: 4. I have to replay the series but I thought 4 had really cool stage and boss designs and was a nice climactic end to the series.

ZX: Advent. The ZX series is a bit slept on, and I think the first is probably a different experience on replay once the map is no longer an issue, but I really enjoyed my time with Advent.

Honestly its hard for me to choose one. Probably because I played 1-6 over the course of 3 days. So they kind of blend together for me as just 6 really amazing solid games.

>What's up with the bosses?
In short, most of robot masters are ok, just ok, with basic AI patterns and not as good animations. Final boss has one annoying phase with terrible music but also the best wily capsule ever. Also weapons aren't as good as the ones in r&f, 9 and 11. Other than that, I have nothing but high praise for the game.

2 or 3, I know it's the standard answer, but for me it's just the case.
