Finally, the Mega Man NES trilogy is complete on MarioNES! And oh man, this one definitely has many graphical issues running on MarioNES!
The graphics, well, immediately, the first graphical issue is the menu. It's all messed up, making it confusing which robot master I'm gonna correctly choose, which is why I savestate every time I wanna choose a new robot master. In fact, I had to savestate multiple times in this longplay, not just because of skill issues, but also because of graphical glitches later in the longplay.
So yeah, not off to a great start when playing this game on MarioNES, but of course the worst part is the graphical glitches later on. Because in one of the Wily Castle levels where you have to jump on moving platforms, it's so severely glitched, that it made jumping on the platforms almost impossible! So I had to savestate multiple times during that section, and it got to the point where I just used Rush Jet, because I legit just couldn't do it with the last section being so glitchy.
Honestly, Mega Man 3 is one of those games I just couldn't beat that well without using savestates or rewind with some of it's moments, and this longplay definitely shows why besides the graphical issues of course. I don't think I'll be coming back to Mega Man 3 that often for the channel, because I definitely think it's much harder than Mega Man & Mega Man 2 in my opinion. But if you're gonna play Mega Man 3, this is definitely not it, and I prefer playing it on something like a Famiclone or even an old emulator that can handle this game well.
