The “smiley face” icon is a commonly used placeholder graphic in game development. “Evil Otto”, the evil smiley face from Berzerk, actually originated as a placeholder graphic, but the developers decided to leave the smiley face graphic in (possibly due to the irony of a symbol that represents happiness hunting you down and trying to murder your humanoid ass). Also the name “Otto” is a reference to one of the developers.
Hope you guys enjoyed this first Mega Man Lost Bits video! Which of the original 6 is your favourite?? Let me know if you want to see more Mega Man games! :D
The Wood Man colors strike me more as seasonal variants (as seen in the ending), with pink representing spring and orange representing autumn. But hey, that's just speculation.
yes, but that frame only shows when hit by guts man stomp attack, nowhere else the real lost bit is that the same animation exists in megaman 2 but in that game theres nothing equivalent to guts man attack, the animation plays randomly when hit
@@omegarugal9283 actually, i remenber triggering the animation in the 1st game as a kid. No cheats or something, just letting myself got hit by the penguins as i shoot with the blue bridge thing cannon.
i think that megaman looking backwards was meant for the "Get Weapon" scene where he would spin to the screen and get the power-up, but it could be also a part of a menu as you said TBG
2:38 I think "Sound ID 22" was intended to play when the player is crushed under metal crushers stuff in Metal Man stage. The "Sound ID 33" maybe was supposed to play when the player will receive damage from bats or Wood Man's leaf shield. The "Sound ID 40" maybe was intended to play when the player falls into the lava in Heat Man's stage or just lava sounds as a little detail to decorate the atmosphere of a hot maze. 3:00 Oh boy Megaman 11...
As to why. Megaman came out so rushed and fast they just didn't bother taking out any of the debug stuff lol. Its also why you re-fight bosses twice. Fuck face the bot steeling person for instance: just filler to make capcom happy. proto, or break or what ever the fuck face is? samething.
I’m glad the scrapped forest fire gimmick later got implemented in Mega Man 7. I believe the orange color palette was also used in the fangame Quint’s Revenge, as were the Met dispensers. There’s also a hack of Mega Man 3 that reimplements a lot of the cut elements.
Regarding the bit from the first game that makes Rockman fall over...you are almost certainly correct that this is a holdover from Gutsman's fight. I'd bet good money that what the code is doing is setting some internal register or variable that normally only gets set after Gutsman does a ground-pound.
Most of the unused bits in Mega Man 3 were probably meant to flesh out the story more (Mega Man 3 was very deficient in that department). 1:26 I think Dr. Light in Mega Man 3's cutscenes had red pants, so may red was the intended color in the first place and it had to be changed later? 2:39 Sound Bit 33 sounds like the Top Spin sound effect in Mega Man 3, so this seems to have been saved and reused there. 8:37 The miniboss might've been meant to block the path to the Balloon item in Pharaoh Man's stage. Probably removed for space reasons. 8:57 Early version of the shootable platform the hippo mini-bosses of Ring Man stage stand on? 9:21 I'm sure that this would've been part of an earlier version of Mega Man 4's story, but it was changed so that the only cutscene where both docs were on-screen at the same time (the "reveal") had Wily and Cossack on different ground levels so the sprite couldn't be used at all. Maybe Kalinka was placed where Wily was originally intended to go in that scene?
It would be amazing to see every Mega Man game covered in this fashion, including the fan made games like Mega Man Unlimited. Yup, that's a hard one, ooof. lolz
4:04 The beep sounds familiar to something, but it was probably meant as a bomb thing, and that explosion I think is meant for the ending when you defeat Gamma and Wily’s Castle falls to the ground
You missed some stuff from 2 and 3. In MM2, The Wily Levels (in corrupt form) are beyond the Robot Masters Rooms and in MM3,Break Man's stage is beyond Hard Man's lair.
@TetraBitGaming There’s actually video footage of a unfound Mega Man 4 Prototype cart, which includes the sphinx miniboss, plus various unused items and altered level designs. It’s crazy they scrapped this stuff so late in development when they finished the code for it.
I'm not even a big fan of Megaman and I found this really interesting Then again, basically anything doing with scrapped things in videogames is interesting all by itself Good work on this one though, Tetra :D
The credits theme from MM3 actually contains even more unused audio. I seem to recall that the Legacy Collection's music player features the track in its entirety.
Wily *kidnaps cossack daughter and forces him to become a international criminal or else her daughter dies* Tetrabit: And here we see Wily and Cossack laughing togheter
This March 7 is the 30th anniversary of Capcom's Strider series...so maybe consider one for that? I don't think anyone has ever done anything about lost content in that game/series, although maybe there's just nothing or very little? Anyway, wonderful series! Best of luck!
You guys should know that there are so many good hacks and fangames of megaman out there. You should all try them! they are both amazing and full of creativity!

My mind is blown.
I always saw that dot on Break Man's helmet as single eye to look more threatening, but it was actually Proto Man's nose. XD
It'll always be a menacing eye to me.
I always thought it was a Sniper Joe eye

The Guts Man stumbling frame looked like some form of fall damage. Because the games obviously weren't hard enough, right?

1:17 tetrabit, you fool! Obviously the last sprite was for an unused game over screen where light flips you off for not saving the world.
3:21 That enemy was used in an Atari demake of Mega Man 2
B I N G B I N G W A H O O .
I FOUND MEGA SONIC
and quits revenge a megaman 2 gb fangame and this game use that enemy
This was also used in the Cossack catcher/Mettall daddy fight in Mega Man 8 bit Deathmatch

Great video. I'm surprised you didn't discuss all the wierd things you can do with controller 2 in Megaman 3.
As to why. Megaman came out so rushed and fast they just didn't bother taking out any of the debug stuff lol. Its also why you re-fight bosses twice. Fuck face the bot steeling person for instance: just filler to make capcom happy. proto, or break or what ever the fuck face is? samething.

You should tackle the X Series next
10:45 that's a mini boss from mega man 11
4:04 the fan-game Mega Man Rock Force used that sound for the SawSun/SawChip/SawClown enemy.

4:32 I don't know why but that theme
sounds familiar somehow
It is protomans theme song
6:31 Fun fact about that Saturn sprite, it's actually used in the Snakes in space stage in Mega Man 8 bit Deathmatch
Pretty sure Wily and Cossack are arguing.
Wily: How many times must I tell you?! Your Vodka Machine can’t defeat Mega Man!
Wily: Toad Man?!?! Your "combat robots" are impractical, Cossack!
Cossack: SAYS THE ONE WHO BUILT A BUBBLE MAN!
4:04
The beep sounds familiar to something, but it was probably meant as a bomb thing, and that explosion I think is meant for the ending when you defeat Gamma and Wily’s Castle falls to the ground
2:53 I thought these would be used for different seasons. (Spring and fall)
6:48 amalgam from Undertale
3:08 That would explain why MM7 did something simmilar years later.
The thing with lighting the forest on fire with fire-based weapons would be reused in later games, like Mega Man 7 and Mega Man Zero 2.
You missed some stuff from 2 and 3. In MM2, The Wily Levels (in corrupt form) are beyond the Robot Masters Rooms and in MM3,Break Man's stage is beyond Hard Man's lair.

If I had to guess, Copy Robot Being able to Jump is likely a leftover from Elec Man's behavior since it was recycled in order to save space.
That would make sense !
I imagine since Copy Robot reuses Elec Man’s AI his trigger to jump when he runs into things comes from him.
That Megaman 1 cover art still gives me nightmares
