AWKWARD ZOMBIE

Does this happen in all video game threads Indigo is in?



durr I meant doesn't I fail

Yes.

I got Mega Man 9.

It's pretty cool but I can't beat the two blobs.

Same. Well, I beat them once, but I had lost so many lives that I was pretty screwed in the next part of Wily's base. I eventually got to the final boss, and got raped.

No.


That is all.

I may be remembering wrong, but I believe the black hole weapon works well with that fight. Your still going to want to bring some E-tanks just in case, though.

Yeah E-Tanks are sort of a problem. The Black Hole Bomb does indeeeeed help. I've also heard of people doing it with the Hornet Chaser but I guess I can't time it right.

A trick to do with the BHB. Detonate it BEFORE the eye pops out, right when it hits they eye, pause then unpause, then quickly launch and detonate another, pause and unpause again, then keep doing that as many times as you can.

The Dual Devils are a joke compared to MM1's yellow devil. There is so much room to move around and the time between blobs is long, and they have a longer distance to go compared to the yellow devil. The yellow devil is fucking cramped, you have such little room to move around, and the blobs shoot out sooooo fast and there isn't much room between the blobs, he SHOOTS at you, and the eyeball is WAY up on the top of him, rather than in a very accessible spot. Unless you do the pause trick with elec man's weapon, MM1 yellow devil is one of the hardest bosses in any MM game.

I don't understand how you can get hit on the dual devils, it's so easy! lrn2patternrecognition.

I thought the Yellow Devil was very easy due to the fact his blobs always went in a certain, easily remembered pattern (at least, from what I remember).

It was a predictable pattern. That didn't make the pattern any less difficult.

For a game where you are typically used to having the whole room to dodge, they suddenly gave you only around 10-15% of the floorspace that you could actually move through without hitting the demon on the left or right side.

And then the pattern was VERY FAST.

AND there was basically only one weapon that could even damage him, due to his weak point being so high up on his body that you couldn't shoot it with your buster gun (IIRC). And even then, you had to be nearly pixel perfect with firing your Elecman weapon at the very peak of your jump, or it wouldn't hit his eye.

It was very unfair

See, I wouldn't have figured out that "pause then unpause" strategy. Probably because something like that just shouldn't be a part of the strategy anyways. =/

One of the biggest problems though is just that I'm the kind of person that needs to practice against a boss sometimes. I had trouble with the first Wily bosses as well, but after playing against them enough I can get by with only a few hits of damage. But after an entire odyssey through Wily's castle and the infuriating gravity rooms, I don't exactly have lives to waste.

Ehh, it's just hard for me. But I still love the game.

The Dual Devil also follows one pattern, and it's a FAR more simple pattern than the Yellow Devil's.

I am patiently waiting for Mario Party to come on the Virtual Console.

Or like... they should make a bundle Mario Party Pack and sell it for 2500. I would totally spend cheddar on that.

Actually, that's a thought. Why hasn't it come out on VC yet?

And as far as we know, it's not going to come out soon. Not on their upcoming releases list, anyways.

I seriously want to play Platform Peril. is it so horrible that I chose Wario and PURPOSELY failed the courses? XD
