Mega Man 7 - Wily's Fortress : Stage 4

Well now, here is a stage I am sure many of you have been waiting for. The capsule stage from Mega Man 7 is very infamous, but more for the final boss fight than anything. Due to the crippling weaknesses of most of the robot masters in this game, the only one that ends up even being a threat is Slash Man. I stick to using weaknesses again here because with a final boss like that sitting around, I do not feel the desire to drive myself insane doing buster only fights with the robot masters.

Speaking of the final boss, Wily is quite determined to do some damage this time. While his first form is pretty pathetic with very little forms of actual attack, his second form, the Wily Capsule, is about as infamous as it gets. Each time he appears, he fires a set of four homing shots that home towards you twice. Due to how quickly these move, you have to perform some pretty specific motions to avoiding getting hit by them. These motions can be hard to figure out on one's own, which is why people have so much trouble with this boss. The trick to it is to learn how to dodge the shots at each of the 9 general areas Wily can appear and work from there. For those of you who prefer a brute force strategy and are not afraid to chug all youe E Tanks, simply try to ram your face into any yellow orbs he shoots as those do the least damage and will not get you combo'd by his secondary shots.

The ending for this game is quite long... too long, in fact, as I could not fit it into this video! I chopped out just the credits portion, which is a good 5-6 minutes long on its own anyways, so I will upload that tomorrow.

Enjoy!~

Yep, it is true that Shade Man's AI can be crippled with non-charged springs.

And is it just me, or does the capsule fight look like it was sped up a bit?

[PinkKittyRose]

@DSUYoshi987 Nah, that is its regular speed! Those bullets move pretty quick, so you need to know their rhythm in order to lure them properly. =n.n=

[UsaSatsui]

Awwwww. I wish you played around a bit. Hitting Freeze Man with the Freeze Cracker is funny.

[PinkKittyRose]

@UsaSatsui Problem is, playing around means putting myself at risk of taking a hit... which is a serious no-no when I have so many bosses to get through in one stage... XD

"The Wily Capsule in 7 turned out as tough as it did because of Inafune saying, 'Let's make the very last fight insanely hard!' At the time, the lead programmer, Inafune and myself had pooled our collective energy into working on just the Wily Machine. In the end, we created something that cannot be defeated without the use of an Energy Tank. (laughs)" -Yoshihisa Tsuda, from the Official Complete Works book

I have to wonder whether he's just joking or underestimating the players.

[PinkKittyRose]

@Lpoeser Pffft... They really need to work on their homing shot programming if they thought Wily's attacks would not be dodgeable. XD

[RedFenril]

Holy hell! I've played this fight many times and I have NEVER aced it. Well done lass! *bows to her* I am not worthy...

Megaman: Hey slash man what killed the dinosaur?

Slashman: The meteor right?

Megaman: NO THE ICE AGE! *shoots slashman*

[SuperSwordman1]

What is it with Wily and skull capsules? Seriously dude, it's starting to get old.

[masterminded78]

Megaman did try to kill wily in Megaman 7 so shouldn't it be logical if he were to do it again in megaman 8-10? And what, did megaman left wily along at megaman and bass?

[SiegfriedM]

2nd Wily is one of the hardest and annoying boss I have never met in a game. Really, he's too hard and frustrating.

[lukethexjess2]

Jesus christ, no damage against wily's second form at all.

[ShadowdaHedgie11]

also, there is one thing i don't like about this game... the buster noises. The 'BWAM' of a fully charged shot is satisfying, but I prefer the 'pyew pyew' of the NES games...

[ShadowdaHedgie11]

Am I the only one who holds down the attack button when shooting the Noise Crusher at a wall to try and charge it properly? ^^;
