Mega Man! One of my top notch games. And it still is to this day,2023! This is a badass channel for old school gaming! Awesome guides and tips, you’re in the right place!
Best nintendo channel, right along summoning salt. Don't ever stop! Your content is legendary! A boring day turns into saturday morning all over again with my brothers. Love this channel!
5 was a close second to 3 as far as my favorite mega man game. I always thought of the M-Tank as a 10th E-Tank, because it refills your energy as well as your weapons.
I stopped enjoying video games a long time ago, but ever since I found your channel I find myself playing these old games for hours, the best part of the day is coming home from work and putting one of your videos and trying to successfully replicate everything you teach.
For about 2 months straight every video I would load up was immediately followed up by your how to beat Dragon Quest. TH-cam was ON POINT for those two months. Lol
I remember beating this game in 93 when I was in kindergarten. This is the game that made me love video games and become the crazy collector that I am today.
The NES Mega Man games are always a good time! I do like how the lore explanation for Mega Man's Mega Buster being so powerful in Mega Man V is because it was upgraded by Dr. Cossack as a reward for saving his daughter in Mega Man IV.
Technically Proto Man saved Kalinka, but I guess he also helped kidnap her, so might as well give the cool buster upgrade to the brother that didn't do that. Plus, Proto Man already has a sick buster.
@@popeyedoyle6360 I think Mega Man's Mega Buster retains the charge ability up until it is mysteriously taken away from him in Mega Man 9. No explanation really given.
22:00 There is a trick I do for the Beat letter in Crystal Man's stage. Do a big jump near the top to align with the left wall at the beginning height of the jump. After passing the spikes in the second screen and transitioning to the third falling screen, hold left to get the letter. Guarantee of getting the letter without dying or pushing the left directional too late.
Fun strategy for the fight w/ Crystal Man: If you stay close to Crystal Man and move under him back and forth shooting him when he lands, he'll never use his Crystal Eye attack. Instead, he'll just keep jumping over you at close range. It's exactly the same technique used against Toad Man from Mega Man 4. Great vid and channel!
I know 2 and 3 are the most beloved games, and I understand why. But the latter three games are so much more polished, I find it hard to go back to the first three sometimes. Five is my least favorite of the second three games, but I still had a fun time with it.
They were all amazing dude with the exception of Mega Man 8 which I never really cared for. Mega Man 2 was my first and most favorite mega man game of all time.
The thing about the Classic Mega Man games is that there really isn't a bad game. Even the shittiest mainline Megaman game around, Megaman & Bass is a decent game. It's shitty compared only to the rest of the games. So different people are going to have different favourites, because they're all good. It's the only series that can boast about this.
I think this was my favorite Mega Man of the 6 on NES. Part 3 will always be the most special to me (I had 2 copies at one point, along with all the others). But I love them all. Never even got to Mega Man 7...... Thank you for showing!
As someone who bought both Mega Man Legacy and Mega Man Legacy collection 2, both Mega Man X legacy collections, and Mega Man 11, I hope you eventually do guides to every Mega Man mainline game.
I've always been amazed by the graphics and gameplay of this game... it's really a Legend. Thank you for making this Guide, I'm going to play Megaman this week following your advice 😁✌🏻
I’ve been playing Megaman games a very long time now, and I’m amazed that I always manage to find out stuff I didn’t know about these games in these videos.
One of my favorites too, along with Mega Man 3. As a side note on 1:35:00, Crystal Man's designer is a young Yusuke Murata (along with MM4's Dust Man), who later illustrated the manga One-Punch Man!
I have not played Mega Man 6 yet, but this is probably my favorite of the NES Mega Man titles so far. I definitely enjoyed playing it as well as watching you play it in this video.
I love the scene out your window in this one! Great choice; this isn't my favorite Mega Man, but it does have my favorite soundtrack out of the NES titles. I usually start with Charge Man, just so I don't have to use Power Stone against him; I like to think that Capcom made Power Stone for the Dreamcast out of penance for how bad this weapon was.
I love your use of all of the game's weapons in this guide! Gyro Attack is certainly a great weapon in Mega Man history! Also, I love your trick/strategy for the last part of Proto Man Stage 3!
Having never played a great deal of these games i love seeing these. They are also great for back ground filler while driving long distance, keep up the great work!
I knew it was only a matter of time before he got to Mega Man V. And I'm not kidding when I say that in this Mega Man game, you can actually defeat all the robot masters with JUST your arm cannon.
I had so much fun playing Mega Man V as a kid and have been really looking forward to this video. I might have to fire the game up again for old times' sake.
Great video as always. I remember introducing a friend who was interested in learning about older games to this. I thought this was probably the best one to start with because it's easy and has a more modern approach and sensibilities to it. He got wrecked by Gravity Man and gave up. I was a little surprised because we played Super Mario World together and he could do most of the harder levels in that.
I just wanted to pay my respects and wish you luck in the games. I completed the first Megaman in 1996. The 2, 3, 4th chapter I've recently walked through with your tips. While waiting for 5th chapter of Megaman on your channel I started playing in it. I reached Dr. Wily castle and the 5th episode of UCBVG Megaman came out. We're on the same page - playing the same game simultaneously. Ur tips was very useful to beat Dr.Wily. But there is no capsule room shortcut in the Japanese version. I had to take pleasure from rematch with bosses. It's great that after all these years so many people haven't forgotten 8bit games. Waiting for 6th episode of Megaman)))
I instantly found myself wishing you had lead off with a joke like "Mega Man 5 is the 27th installment of one of the most..." No particular reason! Just would've been so unexpected. As always, love the video!
Dude your videos are best! very informative and entertaining and was that a DMX reference @ 1:08:58 ? keep up the great work im currently going through all the megaman classics.
YEP!! this is my first Megaman game i have played back in elementary days not sure if grade 5 or 6,2000,01 or 02...so every sound/bgm had been always nailed in my brain..thankfully i was able to beat it even though im just a kid and no knowledge about internet even strategy guide..its about learning every stages,how it is laid out, dying many many times and strategize how to beat the bosses..same as Ninja Turtles The Arcade i also beat that 1 PLAYER ONLY..so Megaman V will always have a place in my heart.... anyways Nice Video SIR!!!! PEACE!!!
Been a while since I’ve visited your channel, but I’m glad to see you’re still putting out incredibly awesome videos. I’ve got the ultimate challenge for you for a future video - Castlevania: Rondo of Blood
You are the BEST!!!! 🎉 You’re videos got me through Megaman 1-6! Thank you so much!! Wondering if you have plans for finishing the main series (7-10). That would be sweet, they’re tough! For me, anyway. So was Megaman 1 actually, good thing I had your vid to fall back on.
20:10 NOTE: Eddy can rarely drop E-tanks, which means you can farm TWO E-tanks on some levels (e.g. Napalm Man). E-tanks also respawn when you revisit stages, which is nice.
Just got through playing the original six last year, but it's nice to see how these could/should be played with bit more skill. Anyways, you must spend so much time to create such good content and it's perfect for both background as well as to seriously watching.
While I'm more partial to Mega Man IV (yes, I'm THAT person), Mega Man V is right up there as one of my favorites. I should check to see if my cart. still works after all these years...
Crystal Man uses the Crystal Eye attack based on Mega Man's distance to him being far away. This means that the player can manipulate the AI to prevent Crystal Man from using that technique by staying closer to the boss.
this is the megaman game i played the most as a kid. Dunno why, i remember the fake protoman fight being a massive wall for me back then so i rarely ever managed to beat this game.
YES! YES! Thank you! Another Megaman game. Let’s go! I’ve almost beat the first one, beat the 2’nd one, half way on the 3rd one. Still working on IV. But def need your help. LoL
"Yeah, it's me again. I need to have another skull castle built..." "Okay, but we'll need you to play in advance this time. Last time your check bounced."
Mega Man V, for me, has the second best soundtrack after Mega Man II. Outside of II where Metal Blades cost like nothing to use and Flash Stopper for Quick Beams, I never seem to ever think about using the weapons I'm bestowed. Thank you putting the idea in my head. And I could say that on each of your videos. I hope you get to VI soon.
@@MidoseitoAkage Oh I'm well aware of that fact. You're right. But they needed a platform console to show off their work. Capcom is more of a software company, even though I did hear of the Capcom Play System. Nice pfp you have, btw.
It makes me happy to know we have at least one more of these mega man videos coming
Still have the X series (my favorite) to get to.
@@richardwade1544 X2 is my favorite
I wonder if UCBVG will do Mega Man EDIT: 9, 10 and 11, not 7 and 8 [END EDIT] that were released on modern consoles.
@@RyanPetrynka I bet he will get to it at some point. It's a retro game for all intents and purposes.
@@RyanPetrynka 7 was SNES and 8 was PS1/Saturn. 9 and 10 might be what you were thinking about and were released for 360 and PS3.
I'm at a terrible low in my life. These are the highlight of my week.
I take the simple joys as I can get them.
Well, I love the fact that your profile pic is Sinistar. Maybe that’ll cheer you up.
Mega Man! One of my top notch games. And it still is to this day,2023! This is a badass channel for old school gaming! Awesome guides and tips, you’re in the right place!
Thanks Tony!!
@@UCanBeatVideoGames yessir always!
Best nintendo channel, right along summoning salt. Don't ever stop! Your content is legendary! A boring day turns into saturday morning all over again with my brothers. Love this channel!
@@UCanBeatVideoGames 6 is my personal favorite, can't wait for that video.

1:08:59 "There Is No Dark Man X Unfortunately" Lmao I Took That As A DMX & Mega Man X Reference
What a perfect way to spend my day off. I can't wait to rewatch this every night before bed!
whoa
Puts me right to sleep. Nothing like the sounds of 8 bit gaming and the dulcet tones of UCBVG to send me straight to slumber land.
For about 2 months straight every video I would load up was immediately followed up by your how to beat Dragon Quest. TH-cam was ON POINT for those two months. Lol
Same here.
@@bryangarcia5599 it was awesome.
LMAO "Stoned Man"! This game has one of my favorite final boss themes. Excellent work as always! I had no idea about skipping the jet ski section.

This channel is so cool. I’ve been watching a bunch of episodes on my home tv. “But what if I told you…” instant classic! Keep up the cool vids.
I love your use of all of the game's weapons in this guide! Gyro Attack is certainly a great weapon in Mega Man history! Also, I love your trick/strategy for the last part of Proto Man Stage 3!
These were my absolute favorite games to play growing up. The mega Man series was and is the best. Thank you for doing these.
“This stage was brought to you by the letter G” -This is some of the best content on TH-cam keep it coming man! I like your commentary!
This was my first Mega Man game! I been waiting for you to get to this one!!
Stoked! This was one of my favorites as a kid!!!!
Having never played a great deal of these games i love seeing these. They are also great for back ground filler while driving long distance, keep up the great work!
One of the best channels for classic games! Thank you for the work you put into these game playthroughs. 🐺🔧
I knew it was only a matter of time before he got to Mega Man V. And I'm not kidding when I say that in this Mega Man game, you can actually defeat all the robot masters with JUST your arm cannon.
Thanks to this video, I now have a vision of an alternate continuity where Dr. Wily chose to weaponize food by making a different kind of Gyro Man
I had so much fun playing Mega Man V as a kid and have been really looking forward to this video. I might have to fire the game up again for old times' sake.
Happy Monday Morning all!
Thank you again to UCBVG and pooches for another complete walkthrough!
Love your videos. Keep up the great work! I get a ton of enjoyment out of them. Very relaxing to watch and relive my gaming childhood!
I absolutely LOVE Star Man’s stage music
You deserve more followers. A very underrated channel. 👍👍
MMV for victory! ✌🏼 Thanks for the complete walkthrough, UCBVG 🐶
Oh yeah! Love this show so much. I Look forward to watching it all week long.
Great video as always. I remember introducing a friend who was interested in learning about older games to this. I thought this was probably the best one to start with because it's easy and has a more modern approach and sensibilities to it. He got wrecked by Gravity Man and gave up. I was a little surprised because we played Super Mario World together and he could do most of the harder levels in that.
There's a set of claws on both sides of Wily's lab. On the left they are higher up, clutching one of the towers.
I just got to the They Might Be Giants / Tiny Toons Adventures reference. I just wanna say that I appreciate you for that!
I thought I mastered classic Mega Man games, but you have tips I never knew about for every level.
I just wanted to pay my respects and wish you luck in the games. I completed the first Megaman in 1996. The 2, 3, 4th chapter I've recently walked through with your tips.

Fantastic ! You always make every game look so easy and natural to play ! Thanks for all that you do.
Nice use of the Tiny Toons song...at least that's what i remember that from..TRIANGLE MAN vs Plucky Duck :)
It always amazed me how much depth you can see the 2d background.
Mega man is my favorite series of all time. Love to see more of the blue bomber.
I instantly found myself wishing you had lead off with a joke like "Mega Man 5 is the 27th installment of one of the most..." No particular reason! Just would've been so unexpected. As always, love the video!
Great entry in the series, can’t wait to watch this!
I just played through this! First time Ive recently played a game Ive seen on the channel. I especially loved the Intro section of this one.
Watching you play this and mention Power Stone makes me think you would be a LEGEND at a Dreamcast games. Some of those games were hard as nails.
Dude your videos are best! very informative and entertaining and was that a DMX reference @ 1:08:58 ? keep up the great work im currently going through all the megaman classics.
Bro hell yes RIP DMX!!!

PEACE!!!
Omg, you finally dusted your consoles! Thank you!
I first played this 30 years ago, and I had no idea about the Crystal Man skip until now. Color me impressed.
Came for the great video and strategies and got a bonus 'They Might Be Giants' reference. Never disappointed here.
Thank you for showing us how to beat all the best video games!!!!
💚💚💚💚💚💚 this channel, saturday morning with my bros everytime you load one up. The intro is legendary brother!
Thank you!!!
I just started Mega Man 5 about 10 minutes ago and popped on here to see if you did a video on it to find this as soon as i opened up TH-cam.
Wasn't expecting that 'They Might be Giants' reference. Nice!
Been a while since I’ve visited your channel, but I’m glad to see you’re still putting out incredibly awesome videos. I’ve got the ultimate challenge for you for a future video - Castlevania: Rondo of Blood
This channel is a highlight for me each week!
Terminology and cadence, superb
You are the BEST!!!! 🎉
You’re videos got me through Megaman 1-6!
Thank you so much!!
Wondering if you have plans for finishing the main series (7-10).
That would be sweet, they’re tough! For me, anyway. So was Megaman 1 actually, good thing I had your vid to fall back on.
I love this game. It was my very first game I purchase with my own money as a kid.
WOW! Your gravity man song is the particle man song! Omg that was an obscure reference that im not sure many people got! Lol
20:10 NOTE: Eddy can rarely drop E-tanks, which means you can farm TWO E-tanks on some levels (e.g. Napalm Man).
E-tanks also respawn when you revisit stages, which is nice.
Great to see Mega Man but also so cool to hear the They Might be Giants reference, keep doing what you're doing

Most games UCBVG carefully describes every mook bot/enemy. MM5,” charge up to get rid of this traffic cone enemy.” 😂
Yo, homie just made a DMX referance...
RIP Dark Man X...
this is the megaman game i played the most as a kid. Dunno why, i remember the fake protoman fight being a massive wall for me back then so i rarely ever managed to beat this game.
Cool thank you for the time you take to make the videos with such a high quality of presentation and production 👏
48:25
I know a contractor...
Just say the word, and I'll get you hooked up with a game doggo themed battle castle.
Suggestion: for MegaMan 6, you should replace the BEAT in the UCBVG logo with the robot bird, Beat, because that would be hilarious.
I've never played this on the NES before, but great video as always. Always putting out the best content. Cheers!
Best guide series on TH-cam!
A They Might Be Giants reference. I love it!
Awesome reference to They Might Be Giants! Keep up the great videos!
Thanks bro. TBH: that chase at the end reminds me of sonic chasing Dr. Robotnik during final zone after he destroys his random chambers 😅
YES! YES! Thank you! Another Megaman game. Let’s go!
I’ve almost beat the first one, beat the 2’nd one, half way on the 3rd one. Still working on IV. But def need your help. LoL
Your videos are as descriptive as a college professor. Hope you get an award.
"Yeah, it's me again. I need to have another skull castle built..."
"Okay, but we'll need you to play in advance this time. Last time your check bounced."
Excellent. Now just one more Mega man Nes game to go. Thanks for this video guide.

Mega Man 5 is one the more underrated games...
I cannot believe you just referenced triangle man!! That's a crazy reference!!
Came home to find this beauty waiting. Loaded bong and beer; fire it up!! 💕💨
at 1:15:52 ... there is claws on the left side around the tower on the map ... it have a grip on it and you can see 3 end of fingers in white ...
I beat every Mega Man on NES. Without cheats! I felt so proud.
1:26:28 Nice reference to Particle Man by They Might Be Giants.
OMG that was amazing 🤩 a nail biter towards the end there lol, but another one beat thanks to your awesome video!!!!
That's awesome - Congratulations, Ruben!
Thank you so much!!! Absolutely thrilled that I found your amazing channel. Sincerely ,Thank You🙏!!!!!!
Mega Man V now that’s what I’m talking about!!
1:15:53 I originally noticed that too, but to me it looks like the left claws are coming out of the tower as if raised to strike!
