Nadia & David’s Mega Man Mayhem: Mega Man II for Game Boy

Life comes at you fast, let me tell you. I’m still working on that next big Beyond 21XX post, and while it’s underway, it’s taking longer than I anticipated — and I’m probably going to have to break some stuff off for other posts to make it more manageable.

Here’s a tip for writing: Everything seems smaller in your head until you have to put it down on paper. Or at least, it is for me.

Anyway, in the interim, here’s a little something else we did earlier: The beginning of our run on Game Boy Mega Man titles! Yeah, we’re skipping Dr. Wily’s Revenge, because quite frankly, we both suck at it, and not even in a way we can enjoy. Just better to move on to where things start getting good for us (though as you’ll see, just where that line is brings some contention between us).

See? That wasn’t so bad! We even finished with time to spare, time enough for Nadia to check out Mega Man III, which we’ll continue with in the next “Nadia & David’s Mega Man Mayhem”!

“Nadia & David’s Mega Man Mayhem” is a 90-minute stream we’ll be doing about once a month, where the plan is to play through every Mega Man game we can in chronological order, according to the timeline. We started with the first Mega Man, and after we finished that, started Mega Man 2, and so on. Next time, we’ll pick up where we left off, and go on like so.

As for the Game Boy games? Well, as you can see above, we’ve got something sorta working. Hopefully it’ll get better by the end!

Once Classic is done, we’ll move on to Mega Man X, then Mega Man Zero, and so on. (And with any luck, there will be a “Mega Man Legends Legacy Collection” or something by the time we get to that, but if not, we have a contingency or two in mind.)

And of course, we love interacting with the chat during these streams, so if you’ve got questions about the Mega Man Field Guides from UDON, Legends of the Halcyon Era, poutine recipes, or just want to chat and share the love of Mega Man, drop on in! We’d love to have you!

Keep an eye on our Twitter (or just the Twitter sidebar here) to find out when we’re streaming next! We usually announce it a day or so ahead of time.

And if you’d like to support our streaming habits, please be sure to consider donating to our Ko-fi or Patreon!

Thanks for reading!
