I first played this game yesterday and this intro blew me away. The way it pans up the buildin, the way he stands there with his hair flapping in the wind, and the way the music kicks in. Just fucking awesome!
Everyone's talking about how good the opening is but no one is talking about how it's a continuation of the ending theme to the first game- Mega Man 6 and 7 was the only instance that this ever happened again
well its actually a remix of the ending theme in megaman 1 , just only the beginning of the song because it complety changed in secs to the up beat music
lo unico malo de este juego es que cuando uno juega entregas mas recientes se siente raro no tener el ataque cargado ni el dash, pero bueno se le perdona porque en esa epoca no habia, pero lo que hicieron en megaman 9 y 10 es inperdonable, quitar algo tan caracteristico como eso.
One of the greatest intros to one of the greatest sequels in video game history. The music, the storytelling, the build up along with the cinematic flare. Legendary.
Came back to this so many times both on youtube and my nes that I got for Christmas in 1990 that is still alive and kicking. What an amazing intro song on the hardware they could use. This song and the Double Dragon 2 soundtrack just live in my head 30+ years later. Helps that I still have the system and games.
Get yourself an emulator and play it NOW. Or, maybe you are lucky like me and have a still fully functional original NES with all the games still working for it, including the "3-5 year" batteries for the save states.
In the year of 200X, a super robot named Mega Man was created. Dr. Light created Mega Man to stop the evil desires of Dr. Wily. However, after his defeat, Dr. Wily created eight of his own robots to counter Mega Man
In the year 200X, Pixar released their greatest animated film: The Incredibles. Eight years after its release, the TH-cam Pooper known as EmperorLemon uploaded a poop of the film to TH-cam. Despite some controversy, the video managed to rack up over 1 million views, causing EmperorLemon to skyrocket in popularity. >>Fast Forward THE UNCREDIBLES 2: *_THE NONCREDIBLES_*
Megaman Forever!!! I remember all the Megaman games, what an iconic game.... miss the times playing this when NES first came out, this intro is the best ever out of any 8 bit game!!!
Oftentimes we ruin music for ourselves by overanalyzing it into its smallest component parts and applying critical theories instead of just enjoying the synergy.
Had to come listen to this after that episode of Secret Level 🤘
I was giving my younger brother a history lesson because I got chills when the Mega Man 2 theme started😂😂😂
It's been 6 years of 20XX, this tune still rocks.
Noobis
20XX includes all years from 2000 to 2099. 2016 is the 17th year that could be written as 20XX.
in Megaman you have 200X and 20XX to signify post-2009
It's 201X, but super robot named Megaman still isn't created.
They call him Rockman for a reason
Almost 11 now :p
The drop brings goosebumps every time
Lee true
It is !
Duud it feels like a full body orgasm everytime
I felt the same just now.
So true
Who's waching this in 20XX?
I am
debe ser en el año 208X por que los dos cientificos Tomas Light y Albert Wily son casi ancianos

Isn't it 200X? I don't know where 20XX came from.

It's insane how ahead of its time this theme was in terms of how fast paced the 8 bit music is as well as the transitions the theme has.

Honestly, I think MM3 had the best opening theme. 2 was really good, but 3 was just on another level.
@@etherealessencetoo bad the dev didn’t have time to add an intro
they was in the studio jammin
Hell yeah brother
So true dude, so true
That opening theme got me so hyped when I was a kid. I'm in my late twenties and it still does 😭
Man I’m sitting here at 43 and it still brings back fun memories!! In my mind I hummed it differently but I can’t deny what it really is!! 🤣

This intro is IMO the most beautiful theme NES ever game us.
I also love how Mega Man 7's intro is actually a rendition of this one.
What's better, this theme or Mega Man 3's opening theme?
Damn you.
+snomaN Gaming This... slightly. MM3's opening is right up there, but I'd say this has it beat by just a hair.
your mom :v
i think 3's music is better, but the fact that 2's actually has an INTRO with it... makes it better
Snoman Gaming equal

Came here for this comment. The episode brought a tear to my eye. So good!
@trdrollin i didnt like how short it was, still a good episode though, i really hope they make an actual series
When you realize that the Secret Level episode was a prequel to this intro

This song always gets me pumped to play Megaman. It's just pure awesomeness in chiptune form.
This intro adds such great atmosphere making the high tempo beat at the menu pay off so well!

Never realized they used this same song at the very end of Megaman 1 until now. This entire game has awesome music!!

i've been listening to this on loop and it gets better every single time
0:31 is where the music starts getting good.
