In today's episode, the Bonne family got their own game! A game where you make money to pay off debt! Wait a minute, that's not a game, that's just life. I love it already. But really, is it any good?

I love that Tronne's first idea on saving Tiesel is to actually pay back the debt and not just using the cash to deck out her armor/weapns and bust him out herself.
Dump 25 million zenny on weapon and armor upgrades so she can steal enough crap to pay back a 2 million zenny debt, makes sense to me.
Sounds win win to me.
Upgrades everything, gets her brother back, learns leadership skills along the way
Almost pity the lender for not having the mechanical prowess she does.
Let's line his pocket, we're responsible for that loan after all. Looks good with the fellow do-badders.
Well, she is the most responsible with money in the family I guess?
she's a pirate, not a monster
That "I really hate saying the word "Digger" " part REALLY caught me off guard 😂
Same, fucking loved it.
BOOTY
I like to think the Sloth Stat is the reason why a Servbot is playable in MvC2. It's all part of Tron's torture routine.
Lazy Servbots get punished by being forced into infinite Magneto loops
@@OptimusCrime1223 "HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!! SERVBOTS... _WELCOME... _*_TO DIE!_* "
OH CHRIST
"You've been very lazy, go fight a giant cactus-man"
@@ManDudeMcHumanGuy Could be worse- imagine fighting a giant Sentinel.
Hearing the gameplay being Tron literally ransacking every house and bank for riches, essentially made me think “Is this Mega Man’s take on Wario Land?”
*Bursts out of the wall*
_…Y'all say Wario Land?_
@Shin Computer-Monster ("Sir Talks-Alot") No, I said "Pac-Man.
Now I'm just imagining Tron Bonne robbing Wario's castle...
I was thinking GTA with how you shoot random pedestrians.
@@GeneralDragon011Not to mention getting in trouble with the police.
Johnny's laugh after he said he was tired of saying digger almost made me lose it. lol.
My first time seeing the Legends series...I found it at a flea market. I saw Megaman on the front and immediately asked my dad for it. I knew literally nothing about it, didn't know it existed prior, didn't even know what it looked like except for screenshots in the back. It was love at first sight.
Same here, i had brought megaman x4 and had a blast playing the game and so when i see the name Megaman on it, i just brought it without thinking and that was how i end up with the megaman theme monopoly as well :D
Funny enough, of all things, Zero was the one that introduced to megaman
I had a friend who had it on ps but I had an N64 so I experienced through MM64 .. but missed out on everything else. I will emulate them one day when I'll figure how to emulate ps 🫠
Your profile picture perfectly captures it
My 1st time was well after the N64 was relevant, I got a 64 and a copy of MM64 for Xmas. I played that game to 100%, maxed out everything and did all the quests and mini games. I regret selling it back in the day
Johnny dancing to 80's music is both hilarious and oddly hypnotic.
I could watch a loop of that all day long.

I’m in my 50s now. Started in the Atari Age. But Megaman cemented my love for video games. I love this series. I had never a PlayStation. So playing most of the 90s Megamans I had to rely on my friend to keep things going.
Legends was not on my radar at first. My friend had bought it a few weeks after release and asked if I would try it. I refused. Third person was relative new and experimental. It was the hot shit for a new generation of gamers. I liked my games 2D, but I also saw the industry evolve and knew that third person would become the next step. But that tech had so much problems and troubles, I feared they would butcher the blue bomber.
But a year later I gave it a shot. The controls were shit and the usual problems of early third person were very present. Plus it was completely different as the Classic and X series. Played until the boss fight in the canyon and quit.
On a garage sale in 2010 I got my hands on all three games of the Legends series. Emulator on and I played through it. Controls remain shit, but I also could appreciate the World Building, the connected dungeon and the RPG system. The Bonnes were a highlight and the humor was good. Still, I think the game came way to early. Would it come out a few years later we’re Standards were set it would be much better.
Are MM legends 1 and 2 each worth 13.49 Canadian to try them? I got the tron bonne game for 7.99 Two weeks ago. Does tron bonne play something like legends? Similar controls I mean? Have to spend paypal bucks on 3DS and Wii U stuff tomorrow.
@@rezterralico4369 MML is like Tron but with a lot more basically. The structure of Tron is way more simplified
@@rezterralico4369 I'm glad I'm not the only Canadian whose trying to buy 3DS and Wii U games before the store shuts down next week.
@@StrawberryPidgey Thanks.
Peter nice fake story there little kid
The best days are the days Johnny uploads.
I agree
Agreed
Agreed
Agreed
Agreed
I know it's a small thing, but Johnny shouting out my name gave me so much giddy! Really made my day.
Same here, even if he mispronounced it ;P
Absolutely crazy just how hard they made the final challenge to max out a Servbot’s speed stat.
You basically need lightning reflexes to make all the lunch orders in time.
“Curry Rice!”
@@train4292 B lunch!
Glad it's not just me then lol
Back in the day, we had gaming cafes (there's like a dozen TVs and PS1s and you pay to play per hour; just bring your own memory card). I discovered Mega Man Legends in one such place. Some dude was playing Legends 2 and the cafe had Legends 1 too so I gave it a try. I'm so happy I did!
I will forever be baffled that GLYDE got a counterpart in Battle Network. And even then he's uh there.
Back in the Nintendo Power Mag days, my six year old self was captivated by the 3 or so pages dedicated to this game with those anime illustrations of helmetless Mega Man and Roll. I remember receiving this as a gift for graduating kindergarten and it blew my tiny mind. I never beat it as a kid, but adored it and played it to no end nonetheless.
Man I love Tron Bonne, just the aesthetics, music and gameplay variations make it an unique experience.
Currently doing a playthrough of Legends 1 and absolutely enjoying it, I’m up to the point where I got the Red Refractor Shard, the game is oozing with soul the low poly PS1 aesthetic is extremely charming, early 3D games are so special and unique of what they were trying at the time.
Is MM legends worht 13.49 CAD? they have both up on the ps3 store. Playing my ps3 with a ps5 controller. 😂 I tried to buy the RE directors cut on the PS3 thinking it was the same version on the PS5. Turns out they are different and the PS3 verion is the Directors cut dual shock version. Man Capcom milked people with all those rereleases back then. Oddly enough the first time I maybe played RE1 was on a Nintendo DS.
@@rezterralico4369
Yes I absolutely recommend Legends 1 & 2 + Missdventures of Tron Bonne, get all 3 because you never know when the PlayStation Store will close
Like the Wii U and 3DS Eshops are soon.
Tron and the rest of the gang are one of those characters that need to make a comeback. And not just in MvC. She and her servbots in particular are just so fun that it would be cool to see them playable again in... oh I dunno... *coughmegamanlegends3cough* sorry, I'm allergic to underutilized potential.
Maybe he'll get off that Moon someday…
…Wait, how long ago was 2018?
NVM, we're screwed.
😂 I don't have medicine for you man?
Tron Bonne has always been my favorite mega man character since I first played her in MvC2 something about her design is so perfect to me and her personality is so fun I love her
Same here ❤❤❤
She's a cutie pie ❤❤❤
Was not expecting Johnny to upload so soon but it is a welcomed surprise.
This is the first time in a while that johnny has his theme opening out without a sponsor
The optimist in me says he's earning enough on Patreon to go independent
Yeah; IIRC, his last sponsor-less video was the Sonic CD review
I never knew this game existed until years later when the great Clement did it in his let's play of the game. And now I wish I had played at least a good amount of it before the purging of the series happened...... Again capcom still waiting on that legends legacy collection lol. I do agree that Tron looks like she's in her element when she's dressed up in her scientist gear and the Serve bots definitely earn their keep of why they are so adorable.
10:00 The Tom scream really got me there. Perfect sound clip to use.
This game was a part of my childhood! The voice acting, the charm and the missions, it was all there!
Nuts that all this content is on a PS1 game
I first heard of MML when I saw an article of it in a gaming magazine that I think my brother had. I didn't really read the article, but I was instantly sold on 'megaman but in 3d.' Legends turned out to not be a traditional megaman game in 3D but I still loved it.
Tron noncholantly standing while the servbot gets crushed is killing me
I know it's a minor aspect, but god I really love the character designs and art style of the Legends series. It just ticks all the boxes for me.
To be honest, back then I only knew about megaman legend because a friend of mine had The Misadventures of Tron Bonne, and we kinda loved this game. We didn't even had the slightest idea it was part of the megaman serie. (we were young XD)
*Wow what a cool and underrated game I wonder how muc-*
My lord is this a game or a down payment for a car!?
Tron is so cute while being bumbling evil.
The Misadventures of John Bonne: A game about Johnny moving back to philly
i always thought this game was between legends 1 and 2 as Megaman put a big hurting on their wallets from all the mechs he destroyed
Love how John has slowly but surely get more sick of our shit LOL
Everything johnny uploads, my day gets better
I'm feeling inspired to draw Tron with her look-a-like someday in the future
Also "Jason, I know it's you" 😂
Blockbuster is how I found out about Legends. Well specifically it was Megaman 64. But eh, you know it was basically the same thing.
That line from Capcom execs refers to why we got MOTB here in the West. Legends 1 DID sold really well. It has that neon green label because it sold 250k copies or more, way more than the X series in the same system.
Also, the first game IN JAPAN, sold slowly. The cover and demo included in RE2 demo did not help. It was a different demographic. Legends 1 eventually got covered and compared to OoT, which is why it sold here well. In Japan it got an updated rerelease when the NA date arrived with a new cover and it did MUCH better.
So happy you covered this game, i really loved the heck out of it as i did the other 2 Megaman Legends. Really one of the franchises that defined my childhood.
It’s crazy to think that Capcom used to milk Megaman in many different incarnations and now he’s not getting any job. Poor dude is homeless and holding a sign that says “will work for e-tanks”
I learned about it when I went to blockbuster and said "whoa a new megaman, I gotta get this!"
The ending of this game absolutely killed me when I first played it. Also I love pretty much all of the music.
Megaman Legends was actually my introduction to Megaman as a whole. Kind of a weird entry point, I'm aware.
My daycare back when I was a kid had a copy of Megaman 64 among a collection of N64 games. I'd always heard of Megaman, but never played it, so that was one of the games I'd gravitate toward the most since I didn't have it at home.
Fun fact: One of the ServBots isn't an actual ServBot. Apparently someone sent a spy into the ServBot ranks, although apparently nothing comes of it in-game. Just a unique ServBot Tron doesn't remember building.
I always disregarded this game based on the title and the spin-off nature, but this looks incredibly charming. If the Legends series can get a collection in the vain of the rest of the series, I really wanna see this with the Legends 1 and 2.
I first learned about Legends by reading a walkthrough of the 64 version on a Nintendo magazine
At the time, I thought it looked amazing, mind-blowing, just by seeing those cropped photos of the screen
Took me 20 years until I'd play it, though... but it's a beautiful worthwhile experience
I'm that one friend who always said these were his fav Megaman games. I can get why people would want to look away from such huge change in game play style, but it always makes me happy to see someone new experience them.
8:21-8:27 Story of my life, bro... lmao
Excellent review, my guy. It's still great to see you still going strong after all these years. Here's to many more.
36 year old here, Johnny. I was a huge Mega Man fan (still am) and I didn't know about Legends until I was in a Gamestop one day and saw it sitting there on the shelf. Now, I had saved up my allowance to buy The Fifth Element videogame, but then saw the Blue Bomber sitting there on the shelf in a pristine jewel case and my eyes widened. Adrenaline rushed through me as I darted towards the shelf. How!? How had I not heard about this!? I flipped the case over and read the back, and was astonished at seeing Mega Man in a fully 3D adventure. Needless to say, I bought Legends instead of the Fifth Element that day and boy, did I dodge a bullet there!
I love you dude, using my girls account to modify her algorithm so it gets recommended to her so we can watch you together. Todaloo!
Gotta say, I LOVE the crt filter you're using for these games, they look really good
The servbot can do other random things in the puzzle stages too if you try, that's probably why you have to do that for the forklift around 11:10
7:45 this is such an odd complaint to make
2:13 I'm gonna like this purely for the awesome scanline filter you used!
I was a huge MegaMan fan as a kid. Now, I was born in 1981, so I was raised on the original NES and the original Mega Man. By 1997, when this game came out, I would have been 16. The PlayStation was the last console my parents would buy for me. I bought the PlayStation 2 myself because I was working at that time. I don't recall how I heard about Mega Man Legends, but I heard about it somehow. It came out a week or so before Christmas, so it was definitely on my Christmas wishlist. My family had a tradition where we could open one gift on Christmas Eve night before going to bed. The one I chose to open happened to be Mega Man Legends. I went right to bed, then woke up first thing Christmas morning, stuck that game in my console, and played it while I was waiting for everyone else to wake up and do the Christmas gift thing. I have since played Mega Man Legends 2 but I never heard about The Misadventure of Tron Bonne until many years later, and by then I couldn't get my hands on a copy.
I learned about Legends purely by accident. I was born in 96 and when I was 6/7, I had already a keen interest in video games (I’ve had a Gameboy for awhile and my dad had a NES). So my mom happened on a garage sale that had a N64 with Legends 1 and a whole bunch of other N64 hits and bought it for me on a whim. Been actively waiting for more Legends games since.
I had the rare opportunity to play Tron Bonne, and I need more of her in my life.
“It’s Troning time “
- Tron Bonne
And then she bonned all over the place or something I haven't played this game
Wow, a new upload after only a week? You spoil us, Johnny
I love seeing Brave Fencer Musashi mentioned in a Megaman Legends video. I got Legends 2 and Musashi on the same Christmas. As far as how popular Legends was, I bought the greatest hits version for $15 when I first got it, so it had to've at least sold 1mil units, which was a lot at the time
I remember going to movie gallery after school one day and my mom was gonna let me rent a game for a week, I was still playing mostly colorful games at the time like spyro and crash and as I look through the shelves I found legends 1 and looked at the back of the case and thought "this looks neat". So I took it home and instantly was enthralled my the setting and the catchy music and fell in love. Our local movie gallery had a policy that if you returned a game late you could either pay a late fee or just purchase the game out right, so I gave my mom all my chore money and she bought it instead of returning it. The rest is history cause I eventually got the second one. I didnt sadly know about the misadventures of tron bonne though so i never bought it.
"What even was the PocketStation anyway?"
If you watched Caddicarus' Video on PS1 Accessories, you'll definitely know, Juan!
Pausing at 1:55 to type this. I vividly remember being presented a copy of Mega Man Legends and my first PS1 memory card. After months of not being able to save games, and a lifetime of being a Mega Man Fan, I was indescribably excited to get my hands on Legends in the late 90's. My exposure to 3d gaming and my first step into Action/Adventure/RPG type games.
Love the vids Johnny.
TY for brightening up my Saturday, Johnny.
I got Megaman 64 and most of my games from an apartment complex. There was a maintenance guy I was cool with and he'd just give all the games people left in the apartment to me.
I'm almost certain that the way I came across Legends was the way I came across most things in gaming at the time, which was about 10% commercials, 10% word of mouth, 20% Nintendo Power and other magazine text (ie. not just ads) and 60% seeing the games lined up in my local rentals, so I wanna say Legends was a mixture of the latter two factors. When I first started looking at NP regularly in the mid-90s it was the lead-in to its 100th issue, and that had a bunch of top 100 lists in it, so those threw a bunch of different franchise names into my face, and around the same time we finally started getting internet at our house so I could look some things up more directly.
When I got my PS1 for Christmas 1996, I got an issue of Official Playstation Magazine not long after, and it came with a demo disc. It had a demo for Klonoa, Shipwreckers, maybe a Gex, but it also had a surprisingly long demo video for "Mega Man Nova." It was probably between 3-5 minutes total in length, which for a demo disc video is like an eternity. It was tons of gameplay footage up through the Servbot trio's attack on the town square. All in Japanese, so I had no idea what anyone was saying, but it put the game on my radar.
This is one of the most hilarious games I've ever played. The dynamic between Tron and her servbots are always comedy gold, and the police officer lady just makes everything even funnier. I really hope when (if) we get a Legends Legacy Collection, this game is also included.
Servebots are Pikmin before Pikmin was even a thing.
How I learn about the mega man legends series was the first commercial that I vividly remembered with Tisel screaming “LETS DO IT!!”
Easily one my favorite Mega man's spin-offs. I love this game. The World, the charm, the Npc's and the missions (Minus the puzzle one. Cause I'm not a fan that one, no offense). I love Tron and her Servbots in this game. I also can agree that Tron looks really cute in her research outfit, when I first saw it. Capcom, can you please make a Mega man legends collection.
My first exposure to Megaman Legends was I just saw a copy of Legends 2 in one of the videogame stores that I frequently visited back when I was a kid. When I saw the cover and the name my first thought was "Hey Megaman! I want to play more Megaman!".
so how me and my brother found this game was in the back of the legends book that came with that game there was an ad so we went to game stop and got the misadventures and loved it so much. Also yeah to get the hoses i would bring the bomb throwing 4 attack serves and ones with max speed the 4 ones there a like 1 or 2 of each, and put the ones with 4 smarts to help drive too for max damage in the gusetove, loved the vid keep up the good work
"Nothing matters anymore"
*Johnny uploads a new review*
"What was I upset about?"
1:43 It was the 2000s and we just playthrough Megaman 8 and Megaman X5 a bunch of times and we saw megaman legends for the 64 thinking "Wait there were over 64 games in this franchise?" We pick it up because we like megaman. I liked to watch and my brother played it a bunch. the n64 version frame rate made me nauseous but I enjoyed what he played of it. Picked it when we saw it on a self in a store and because we played older megaman games
Both this game and legends were my favorites to rent from blockbuster back in the day. Iconic box art
I got into MegaMan Legends in 2001 with the N64 port. It was just a random mid summer gift from my parents. I do remember the N64 version getting some coverage in Nintendo Power at that time. They had a walkthrough for the main quest in an issue focused on Paper Mario.
10:55
Tron: You're too late, Blue Bomber. My Servbot is now forklift certified!
Love that MC Ride yell alternative to the bird call, that had me in tears😂
Me and my dad frequented a rental store called Victoria Video & Audio in Paterson when I was a kid, and I had never heard of Legends beforehand, but I constantly saw Mega Man 64 in the shelf. Eventually when I ran out of stuff I absolutely HAD to play at the time, I played it.
Still one of my favorites to this day.
1:44 I just happened to have a friend who was super big into Megaman. He lent me his copy of 8, X4, X5, X6, and Legends and taught me how to play each. Dude was a huge fan
very similar to my experince
What a good friend.
I learned bout rhe legends series after a friend gave me Legends 2 telling me "youre good with megaman games right" and i was like wtf tis isnt the megaman i played, but after an hour i got hooked with the game and is now one of my favorite series in the franchise
Aw sweet I got a shout out in the credits! Happy to help, John. Keep up the good work!
I almost forgot about the torture room 😂
6:53 well, I wouldn’t expect an uprising from Servebot 27, affectionately named Skynet
I found out about Legends through some ads in gaming mags when I was a kid; never saw a commercial but I do remember seeing a copy of both in a Blockbuster and bought 'em up fast.
Playing this on my PS3 and loving it. I remember going into a game store and seeing it and was like sure lets buy Legends and then I kept picking up each additional release. As a young teenager I always had a crush on Tronne
didn't even know about this game until now so it was great to hear about this from johnny
When I was young, my father rented every game from the video store and brought them back home to burn them onto CDs for our modified PS1.
That's how I got my hands on Legends 2, and revisited Legends later + Tron Bonne because I loved 2 so much.
These videos be coming out like hot pancakes and I love it
I was very young, with my family, in a Blockbuster looking for any MegaMan X game. Stumbled upon Legends and it's been my favorite series of all time ever since :3
9:56 is why I'm salty to this day that Denise never got to be a costume in a Street Fighter game. It would be PERFECT on R.Mika or Makoto.
I believe my introduction was a brief advert in a magazine, where it said it was a completely different take on Megaman. I also remember more promotional photos than for anything classic or X. There was also a fan backlash after it came out, a lot of people thought it strayed too far.
It's insane how expensive this game is physically. Literally it's nearly $500 used. Yet it's $10 on the PS3 Store.
About finding out about the first Legends. My friend had it and said "Here, it's Mega Man for the Playstation". And I was like "Whaaa? How did I miss this?!".
11:52 Oh, just a space duck. What a majestic creature.
While I haven't rally played this game, I first learned about it in one of the early issues of Robot Wars official magazine, when that series was still in it's prime and around the end of series 3
2:00 My introduction to this series is weird. I was a teen when the Ps1 was on its way out and PS2 had been around for at least 2 years. I loved playing MvC2, and that's how I knew who Tron was. She was fun in the game, and I ended up picking up MoTB in the bargain bin used for... I can't remember but it would have been very cheap, less than 10$. Loved the game, discovered the Legends connection within it (I had played a tiny bit of Mega Man 64 but didn't remmeber anything) and backtracked and played MML 1 and 2. I had no idea TB was such a rare game until ages later. I wish I hadn't thrown out the case and manual (I went through a phase keeping all my games in one CD folder).
First time I learned of the legends series was actually going through blockbuster renting games back in like 1999. Been exclusively a MegaMan fan ever since and begging every year for a legends 3
It was a commerical or magazine. Was one of the first games I got with my PSX on Christmas along with RE2 and FF7. The best time!!! I've been a fan ever since.
I haven't played this game since the actual PS1 days and man... memories come flooding back. It was such a great little charming game, truly special. Real shame Capcom gave up on this series.
This game does feel like a good candidate for the hopeful future legends collection.
