Remember the little dough boy Megaman for your baby toy, the NES? Well he is OUT OF HERE. Make room for his teenage step-bro, X!!!! X is the NEW Megaman for the adult console SUPER Nintendo and he is full of Bad Boy attitude and his Girlfriend Zero is even more wicked!
You see, Doctor Light decided old Megaman was soft and stupid (correct) and then built an ALPHA wolf Megman and named him X. But see, here’s the thing. Dr. Light killed himself before he completed X, but he was nice enough to leave UPGRADE PODS all over the game for him to find and complete his body to become the ultimate weapon.
The world is being destroyed by a new villain (dr wily is also dead, this is millions of years after old Megaman tapes) name of SMIGMA.
Well Sigma is basically a new dr. willy, because he also makes evil robots who go nuts and murder people and try to destroy the world. But now, instead of using a dumb looking little boy robot, you get to use the powerful alphawolf robot X who has a rockin girlfriend name ZERO.
She dies at the end which is even cooler for X because he now becomes the tragic hero…until X3!!! When you can even play as the reseurected zero and she has a LIGHTSABER!! Bad ass,..
The tape is a lot like old Megman because you get a screen with all the bosses and you have to select who you want to destroy first. When you kill the boss, you inheret there power. So if Devil Armadilo can use a rolling shot you can also use a rolling shot after you kill him and take his soul.
See, every boss is weak against a different boss soul weapon. And it is up to YOU to hunt them all and test their soul weapons out against each of them until you discover how to easily kill them. X’ has a mega buster arm shooter, but it is very weak and only good for low level monsters not bosses. So it is important to steal souls and upgrade your shooter in order to be successful at this tape!
You fight and kill and steal souls until you are totally powered up in your god armor and feel the dead robot souls flowing through you and decide it is time to attack the castle of Simga,,,where you will discover your Girlfriend zero is still alive after being blown in half at the beginning of the game…but your reunien is short lived! Because you soon discover that SIGMA’s body guard is also alive! And zero kills herself with a bomb to weaken him up for you to finish off. After you get through that part you have to defeat all of the robot bosses again before you can even THINK about facing off against smigma.
But since you learned their weaknesses, it is not a problem since you already have their powers. Once you defeat the soulless robots with their own powers, you can then fight SIGMA and become the robot overlord yourself. You know that Zero may come back to life in part two so you look out upon the world you have saved and wonder what other alpha wolf sh!t you can get up to so that everyone knows you are still the bad a$$ here.
This tape came out in 1993 but I had gotten my first sip from this bad asses power cup in a earlier issue of Nintendo Power magazine. That is the magazine where I learned all the greatest pro tips and techs (techniques). Everyone always wondered how I knew all the hottest secrets in the most popular games and this magazine was my secret weapon.
I had a subscription of my OWN for it because my sister felt guilty for all the times she would beat me up before I became a strong teen and punched her so hard in the stomach that she threw up and then stopped hitting me. Guilt can be a powerful ally but I do not recommend you hit anyone unless it is self defence!!! That is the only reason I slugged her was to show her that the beating of her little brother ENDS HERE. So in that way I saved myself the way X saves the world, except I did not inherit any soul power from her when I defeated her.
I dont’t even know what soul power she would have given me. “Crying over her boyfriend breaking up with her again” maybe. Like, no thanks I cry enough for my own reasons dum a$$. lol.
That is the reason I had a subscription to Nintendo Power and all the other kids asked ME how to take down a boss or hard level.I was basically the “Nintendo Tape Kid” (grew up to become Mr. NintendoTapes) and it was awesome! I also used some money I would get to buy the magazine called “GamePro” Heheh, I had many secret arsenals indeed……………………….
Anyway, the kids in school were always asking me to tell them the hidden secrets of the tapes. It was the only thing people usually said to me that wasnt’ calling me a f$#cking loser or laughing at me for how i looked (girls) or laughing about how they were kickking my ass (boys) or laughing about how i just had my ass kicked for how I looked (boys and girls) so I was all too happy to tell them all the tape secrets I had. In that way they were all still my friends and when they beat me up it was more like a “hey man just messing with you” kind of thing. Except when Miles Fletcher did it but i will not talk about that now!!!!
So in the end I have defeated all bosses of Megaman X, and I am the one who beat all of the other Megaman Tapes Too!!! Even the ones that became lame little kid tapes like megamans 1-6 for NES. I got grown into a teen then NES was stupid but now as an old man I remember all of my childhood tapes and consoles as beaufitul. Like all my friends and adventures in high school…it all becomes one happy memory of my life that happened and if u think about it,,, that can’t be a bad thing at all. even if there was times you were crying for no reason, you can remember it and think “wicked..,” because maybe u played a cool tape or went on a cool adventure with a gun you found in the woods and no matter how lonely it gets sleeping on your mattress with no sheet u will always have that awesome memory of nintendo tapes…
Adventures of being Nintendo Tape Kid is one of my favorite memories and I really loved how you could charge up your X gun on your arm and shoot a boss in the face until he died in an explostion and that is why i give Megaman X nintendo tape for super Nintendo a
