@@panthekirb7561 That's because you are very good at Megaman games. A casual player coming from games like Megaman 2 and 3 are going to struggle with MMB. There was so many difficult jumps and unfair enemy placement in Megaman and Bass. I do agree that Megaman 9 was no walk in the park either.
@@panthekirb7561 Agreed that overall MM&B is not as hard as everyone's making it out to be. I had a harder time with 9 and 10, for example. It has to be played differently than a traditional classic MM game; especially if playing as Mega Man.

3:38 It's funny how he can play through difficult games and keep (some of) his composure, but slowly being denied the ability to choose what order he can play completely breaks him and gives him sentience.
MegaMan & Bass is one of my favorite games in the series. Been looking forward to this episode since I first found your channel and its finally here aaaaaaaa!!
Can't wait ten more years for a Mega Man 9 video! Ok but seriously amazing work, you really outdid yourself with this one. my favorite parts were when Proto Man really thought he was a main character haha I really do hope we se gigachad King in another game.
I laughed so hard at the King segments, such a great bit! I think I’ll give this game a shot sometime, I was put off by knowing about the screen crunch on the GBA Version but now knowing there’s a fan translation is such a godsend!
Burner Man? More like Propane Man of Propane Accessories, I'll tell you whut. 🔥 Poor Proto Man, His inclusion was half-assed at best. 🥁 Man, Capcom must LOVES introducing cool characters and NOT doing anything with them afterwards. A Common trend. 😭 This was worth the wait, PG. I'm so hyped for "I Have to Beat Mega Man 9!!!!!!!!!" At some point. 🥰
16:14 This is weirdly touching for a meme reference. Good job. I'm glad you didn't skip this one. I know most people find Bass easier but i have had an easier time as Mega Man. And King recruiting and building his own followers in canon is pretty cool, shame we never see him again.
Love the hard work and effort that went into this video, the voice acting, memes and appreciation for this underrated gem of game. I ranked Megaman and Bass as one of my Top 25 games of all time, at first I considered X3 and X4 but those games don’t give that much of a challenge and don’t have collectible CDs so I ultimately decided on Rockman & Forte.
I live for these videos, they’re so funny. I crack up with what you do with the characters. They’re out of character and yet in character at the same time, everything is just 👌🏼 perfect
Power Guy, you’ve done it again! I know these proper episodes are time consuming to make but they are so entertaining, funny yet comforting like a warm blanket during a snow storm. Keep it up and I’ll be watching!!
I laughed a lot through this video! Your channel was fun from the beginning but it's really cool to see how much you've improved at making videos in just a year.
19:52 I believe you got the context mixed up. Looking at the bio, it does NOT show any mention of Flash Man using Time Stopper to spy on women. Instead, it’s more plausible he abuses Time Stopper to take longer baths. which i mean, i can understand that flash man.
Mega Man 8 for super players... if you don't choose Bass. Some compare it to Mega Man X6 but aside from the checkpointing in the King stages I found it much better-balanced. I like how the CD collection includes Game Boy-only characters like Enker and Sunstar.
_Hope you've prepared for the challenges ahead._ I still remember _Somecallmejohnny_ struggling with GBA version of this game for *Platformania* back in 2017. Hopefully you won't repeat his mistakes.
Love the fact you're putting a lot of effort into these videos, especially with the sprite animations for the intro stage. Looking forward to more of this dude.
The secret best classic game until 11 came out. R&F's a real kick in the teeth up front, but it gives you every tool you need to crack it open like a walnut. Unless you just _wanna_ get kicked in the teeth and then you can ignore all of it and go buster duel bosses with no gear. Options!
I kinda love how Burner Man is just a bunch of propane tanks. Hank merely adopted the propane and propane accessories, he was born in it, molded by it.
What a delight! Thanks for this new review, each one of these sets a new level of funny robo butt jokes, which I admire lmao. I still remember this game exactly as you do, completely unfair to MegaMan. This game should've been just called Bass & Bass, because I bet that's everyone's FIRST pick after all.
I forgot how awesome the King boss theme is. I did not forget how insanely difficult the King boss fights are. That auto scroller is nearly impossible playing as Mega Man.
You have the patience of a monk for beating this game fair and square. I had no idea King had a change of heart at the end since I never had the patience to beat it.
Protoman acts a lot like Zero in this game, being torn in half and sacrificing himself.
And coming back from death
maybe he hid himself to repair himself
@@angelotorres1 knowing he hates being near Dr. Light, he probably did!
but UNLIKE Zero, he doesn't have his own game series
he's just playable in certain Mega Man games

Seems like King isn't all that bad, he learns quite quickly for being a royal robot.
And Bass continues his search for his CDs
A search that will continue until the end of time, because in actuality He Doesn’t Own Any, but Bass is in denial
0:41 Inafune didn't know the difference between "hardcore" and "bad game design."
his idea of gamedesign back then was trial and error till you make it, like he was pro trial and error in cases like that and it shows sadly.

Ground Man saw Guts Man and was like "I can do that."

Ground Man "No."
Guts Man: "DUH DUUUH"
Bass calling Protoman "Useless Guy" is as true as it is in character

Mega Man and Bass feels like X6 but deliberate. It PURPOSEFULLY hates you, while X6 just kinda accidentally hates you because it's such a rush job.
Inafune was like "You only get one game a year? Then I'll give you a game that takes a whole year to beat!"

You know who else does a better job at being a challenging Mega Man game? Mega Man RocknRoll, and also MY MOM!!!!
