Classic Series: Robot Master Weapon Only Runs

[Redmage1987]

What's up everyone? Good to see the forum back up and running! I thought I would share a set of challenges I did for youtube that I really enjoyed doing. I went through some of the classic games using only the Robot Master Weapons (except when forced to use something else). I'm still in the process of doing this for some of the classic games, but I figured I would share what I have done so far. Only watch them if you're interested! I hope you guys enjoy them!

I only watched the second half of Mega Man 3's video, but it was fun to watch.

Oh, and I can't remember if it was directly from the videos or from the related comment section, but you inspired one of the few other threads currently in this section. XD

Yeah I noticed that. Thanks for tuning into the challenge run! I'll be updating this as I complete other games. I've done other Mega Man stuff on Youtube as well, but I don't want to cram my channel down peoples throats, so I'll just leave it with the Robot Master Weapons Runs for now, lol.

I wonder if there should be a arm canon only run.

Did you check Redmage's channel?  I am surprised he hasn't posted one yet.

For some games, he might still have to use Rush or similar Items, though.  Mega Man 3, for instance, has a huge section you have to use the Rush Jet or else a cheat/glitch that is in the game to by pass it.  As the cheat/glitch in question basically amounts to a super easy mode (there is a reason MM3 was the first NES game I ever beat), using it is as big of an exception as using the Rush Jet.

Strange question... does anyone bother with "No buster" Runs?

I didn't understand this concept correctly at first, and frankly if I was good enough to not use any Items I'd be good enough for at least No Hit runs. XD

It is very interesting learning to spam the Rush Coil as a surrogate arm cannon.  It sounds really easy at first, but learning where to place Rush (or having to deal with accidental bounces) is quite interesting.
