How to Dominate Mega Man's Weirdest Intro Stage
7,243
Published 2023-09-10
It's not as difficult as exaggerated, but the way the Mole enemies work in this stage is intriguing enough to warrant a more analytical discussion. This video will break down their patterns that most aren't privy to, and provide practical solutions to trivialize the stage for ease of replayability.
I play this on original hardware with the authentic Japanese copy of Rockman & Forte (with a hard modded SNES to play Super Famicon carts).

I wish this came in a collection.

Megaman and Bass... My favorite Classic Megaman Game 🥰
-
I recently recorded a mm&b no damage savestated run, no cap. And the intro stage was honestly one of the easiest parts of the run, but it did take a lot of attempts due to how clumsy I can be lol
-
I know this stage was made to see the potential of the game but it's indeed weird, you are outside, you enter a sort of museum, next dorr is a furnace, museum again, water classic part, a submarine, museum again, outside in the rain, green devil boss. I imagine Megaman thinking for himself "What the actual F is happening here"

More bite-sized "guides" like this one would be cool, if/when you're feeling them. Seems like a good middle ground. Also, I'm a bit surprised you don't care about level design at all. It seems like something you'd care about as a challenge runner, so I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on why not, if it's anything more elaborate than simply "I don't care." Great video!

I'm glad MM8's sprite/style were used once more. They truly are beautiful
-
this was the first mega man i beat without rewind. i felt so accomplished yet so drained at the same time. at least bass made the jumps easier
-
I actually like this game, and this stage too.
-
Great quick video. Found the channel a few days ago and been loving all of the classic mega man content. You are truly a master and an inspiration. Thank you
-
Man I forgot how much this stage threw at you right off the bat, I had no idea why I thought I could beat this game as a kid after this lol.
-
I usually just damage boost through almost everything in the intro stage of Mega Man & Bass, hehe.
-
Always nice to see a MM&B video that isn't just pushing the same tired opinion of "Game bad because hard/a couple design flaws/the sloppy GBA port tainted all my impressions/not 8-bit."
-
I feel like this game is so criminally slept on
-
Oh nice! My favorite Classic Mega Man is getting some attention. Good run!
-
Congratulations. You solved the intro stage.
-
The bassd ost makes it easy to practice withought getting frustrated
-
Favourite intro stage music
-
Of all the stuff I heard about MM&B, I didn’t think people disliked the Intro stage that much. Maybe it was a bit much for a starter stage, but I still thought it was good compared to others. Neat info on the moles though, I might have to keep that in mind if I decide to ever touch this game again 👌

Robot Museum is one of my favorite stage themes in the entire franchise
-
Bass makes it feel like a cool megaman x game
