Nice Job getting around the Squirms, that area seemed annoying.

You Call'em Tellies But i like To Call'em Floating Hamburgers LOL

[Tenorsaxman3030]

Am I the only one who when they played this stage for the first time, got startled the **** out of by the dragon's appearance?

[EvilMariobot]

@Tenorsaxman3030 The screen starts auto-scrolling, you hang back to see what's ahead then BOOM! Telefragged by a dragon. Quite unexpected to say the least.

[FlyGuy22222]

This is the most hilarious and random song choice yet

[HeyShayMay]

The first time I played this stage (I'm a bit of a born-again Mega Man fan, see) was on my iPod Touch in the common room at school.

When the Mecha Dragon appeared, me and my friend (who was watching me) started screaming obscenities at the screen, we were so surprised. XD

[masterminded78]

thank you jilc16

[lacroyal96]

you should have sung okkusenman

[supersonic2394161]

So a drgon kills a dragon?

[Ashanmaril]

@supersonic2394161 Survival of the fittest...

[supersonic2394161]

Or in this case the lucky. 

[HyperKnuckles259]

at least this isn't the iphone version. mecha dragon shoots his fireballs onto the platforms and they travel really fast.

[nijastarify]

mecha dragon i wonder if there is a mecha dragon 2 that is not so weak to the mega buster

[HeartOfTheUniverse]

Do not mess with dragons because you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

The funniest part of that quote, is that I learned it from a bumper sticker my science teacher had in his room, on the side of his desk. =P

[RoahmMythril]

I used to have a shirt with that saying on it X)

[linebro]

@RoahmMythril that is awesome

[thegamerguru97]

@RoahmMythril you should also not mess with dragonsbecause should you challenge a dragon to a video gaming duel the dragon will most likely win

[benjamin656564]

watching you play, i play mm2. this stage was really pissing me off with the item-1 platforms i just keep falling down!

[robo1687]

Have you been cursed by hearing Brentafloss's lyrics to this song too?

[RoahmMythril]

I've heard them, but they didn't really stick in my mind.

[Kain5th]

@RoahmMythril You should hear nintendo caprisun's lyrics to this.

[hyperdarksonic98]

''SECRET AGENT......DUN DUUUUUUN!!!" lol wtf its so random ^_^

[RoahmMythril]

It's actually from an episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000, "Secret Agent Super Dragon."

[linebro]

how was it like killing your cousin Roahm

[RoahmMythril]

Mecha Dragon really isn't that bad, though he is one of the few fortress bosses I really like.

[levelmaster2]

I have to ask, were you born in the chinese year of the dragon?

[RoahmMythril]

Alas, no, I was born in the year of the rooster.

[ShadowAFAGGOT]

roahm why wont you just record fighting the yellow devil

[RoahmMythril]

Because the Yellow Devil is boring as all get out. Also he opens his eye too high sometimes to hit with the Mega Buster, making the fight drag on even longer.

[TheJeppesk]

@RoahmMythril You could speed up the fight

[RoahmMythril]

It's still a long, boring fight that I just don't feel like doing right now. It's not even hard, it's just annoying and tedious.

[glovestrong48]

AHA! Directly referencing an MST3K joke! GOOD TIMES

CAPS LOCK

[PinkKittyRose]

5:41 "That was... that was... special."

Dunno what exactly makes me giggle so much about this one, but it definitely seems to do such consistently. XD This outtake must be special indeed!

[RoahmMythril]

Pft, yeah, dodge teh Scworms and run right into the dispenser, that was..... special indeed X)

[masterminded78]

That dragon is nothing in the real megaman game but that dragon is like Hell in that game I Wanna be the guy.

[TheMartianGeek]

Squirms/Scworms, so that's what they're called. I'd just been referring to them as "evil spaghetti" or something. You know what always bugged me about this stage? What happens if you run out of Item-1 or Item-3? You have to get a Game Over and try again.

[RoahmMythril]

Indeed, MM2 really doesn't take a lot of things like that into consideration. Case in point, Buebeam Trap, one of the most annoying bosses ever, with one of the most stringent weapon requirements.

[deadlypudding]

Don't know if this has been posted, but you can barely edge the Sniper Joes in this level from the ladders without being vulnerable yourself.

[samuraikarasu]

You had some trouble with the squirms there, but at about 5:08 you could have held back, shot the squirms through the ground in your way, and progressed safely. At least I think you could in Mega Man 2.

[RoahmMythril]

The problem is the Scworms don't start appearing until you get close to the dispenser, which is too low to the ground to shoot normally.

[samuraikarasu]

@RoahmMythril Oh I see what you mean, I forgot how lame the hitboxes on the dispensers were. My bad.

[DemoneRinnegato]

I noticed that you use only the buster and that you ignore other weapons as long as they're not required to proceed (just like the item 3 on those walls), however you could have used Metal Blade on that thing where Squirms come out since it can be easily destroyed by a single a hit of that weapon. That would saved to you a bit of problems XD

[RoahmMythril]

Indeed, I know, but that's the point of these vids, to try to get through using only the Mega Buster unless absolutely neccessary, and without taking damage. Since it IS possible to get past the Scworms without using weapons, I had to do so ;)

[themegashyguy]

mecha dragon's weakness is quick boomerang can beat in a matter of seconds

[RoahmMythril]

The thing is, it's not so much a weakness as it is a flaw in the Mecha Dragon itself. The Quick Boomerang only does one damage to it per hit, however, Mecha Dragon has no invincibility frames, so the sheer number of boomerangs you can spam, that's what makes it go quickly.

[EvilMariobot]

@RoahmMythril Actually, they do 2 damage per hit; but yeah, his lack of invincibility frames does not help matters on his end, either. Especially if you play on Anniversary Collection, which has turbo fire as a legitimate button.

[jinkariya18]

i can tell u and the squrms wernt on the same page there

[UsaSatsui]

You mentioned the different colored sniper joes...you probably know this, but the color they are depends on the color of the backgrounds. The NES has a limited palette.

A question, do you record your voice live, or after the run?

[RoahmMythril]

The thing is, Joes are pretty constant in their colors, depending on what game they're in. MM1 is always green, pink for MM2, dark green for 3, lighter green for 4, crystal blue for 5, red for 9, etc. As for the voice recording, I do that live.

[ipwn3duagain]

i have an interesting request, maybe you can do aQ&A about yourself.

[RoahmMythril]

Well, I tried to do something like that with the Stardroids Rematch vid, but there weren't really too many questions asked. Beyond that, I did do a video just talking about my life and such while playing Spelunky.

[RedDragon1444]

The squirms got their revenge in spades.

[EvilMariobot]

Actually I find Quick Boomerang... well... lives up to it's name against the Mecha Dragon.

[JadePharaoh]

You mentioned that the Pipi eggs are harder to hit in the the Genesis WW version. I think that has to do with how Megaman's buster fires slower than it does in the NES games.

Anyway, awesome videos, and keep up the good work!

[NintendoGamer2008]

"That was... that was... special!" lol Nice one.

[TonyTheTGR]

Good run! That squirm part sure makes Item 2 look important, doesn't it? (But then, I abuse Item 2 in HeatMan's and FlashMan's stages, even.)

[RoahmMythril]

Indeed, I would have used Item 2 if there was no other way, but it can be done without it, and thus I had to ;)

[jllc16]

thanks for accepting my request, i didn't knew that the squirms could be such a problem... I always ail with the dragon because i want to finish it quickly then he shoots andi can't avoind because he gets to close, sorry if i interrupted your break.

[RoahmMythril]

No worries, I like doing these vids, and as I theorized, I was getting a bit bored anyway.

[burnum]

In IWBTG, they combined the Dragon WITH Yellow Devil to create a thing from hell.

[RoahmMythril]

Yellow Devil usually doesn't bother me that much besides just being incredibly tedious. That and the fact that the original version had a nasty habit of opening its eye too high to hit with the buster.

[burnum]

That's true, because when I had gotten done with my No-death run of MM1's Robot Masters, I tried the first Wily stage.

The result- dead every time. But atleast I found a trick with Big Eye.
