"Psst, wanna play some Mega Man 5?"

"Sure, why not?"
>>
>>12472185
Because there are 5 better Mega Man games on the same console.
>>
>>12472189
RockBoard bros it's not fair.
>>
you only need 1-3, 4-6 were just student programming projects for new Capcom interns as they'd shifted their main dev teams to SNES games by then
>>
>>12472185
>$63 new
This was an expensive game.
>>
This game is disliked for being absurdly easy, it's one of the easiest MM games there is.
>>
you do you think is firing the lightning bolt from their palm and who is blocking it with their palm?
>>
>>12472212
4 megabit ROM, it's a large game
>>
>>12472185
It's the easiest and most forgettable, but I think it has the best cover of the original 6.
>>
Why is 5 so expensive anyway?
>>
>>12472291
It was a late release and so not a big seller.
>>
>>12472193
that's just some fucking bullshit you motherfucker
>>
>>12472232
I was about to say Gravity Man has lightning coming out of his other hand as well so it's obviously him but that's not a hand so now I don't know (it would be weird to need an arm cannon to shoot it if a hand can also do that in addition to all the other useful things a hand can do). These are the boxart mysteries that keep me up at night.

it's actually an MMC3 2 megabit+2 megabit game. Mega Man 4 and 6 used a 4 megabit PRG with CHR RAM, some of the only carts to use that setup with MMC3.

>>12472193
I will say the boredom was clearly setting in by 5.
>>
>>12472193
Don't fucking lump 4 in with 5 and 6.

4 is the peak of the series and 5 is dumpster trash, 6 is better but just bland and uninspired
>>
>>12472390
>Bland and uninspired
Those are interesting adjectives to use for a series that rehashed the exact same format, weapons, and mechanics every single iteration on the NES.
>>
>>12472449
They made small innovations with each game, and the overall level of polish improved up til 4 where it then fell down a cliff with 5.
>>
>>12472390
4 is the actual real dumb casual normalfag game, it's actually hot garbage
>>
>>12472232
it's obviously Gravity Man firing and MM blocking. You can tell by the stance of the hands and the fact that there is a bigger aura with sparkles around MM's hand
>>
>>12472185
I think 5 had the strongest overall ost. Gravity, stone, napalm are all excellent examples of later nes music.
