So, here’s the scenario. You loved the crap out of the old Mega Man games on the NES, so you downloaded Mega Man 9 (the retro-perfect re-imagining of the franchise), only to have your butt kicked back to the 1980s? Well, Destructoid editor Anthony Burch has kindly posted some advice in a video aptly titled How not to look like an idiot in Mega Man 9. Burch breaks down the game’s old-school design and offers some crucial tips (especially helpful to newbies and old-school gamers who may have forgotten some of that MM muscle memory).
Take heed in Burch’s advice, especially “Mega Man is about memory and strategy, not about reflex”. That’s a biggie, since the key is in learning the various patterns of the enemies, platforms, bosses, etc. Also, he suggests that you think of dying as a learning experience – which, in or out of context, is an amazingly deep sentiment.
