Remember how the manual had descriptions of the villains backstories and you found out the life story of that guy who threw spiders

He was pretty easy to kill. Then he was resurrected in the second game and I could never kill him. How does being dead and coming back to life let you fly in new and different dimensions?

Well that's my story.

being 9 and seeing this cutscene at like nearly midnight gave me the creeps

then I couldn't beat the original NES game because I always got kicked back to 6-1 after dying at the final boss and was like, gently caress this

I knew it was Wily in MM6 because Mr. X was clearly Wily, but I thought it was actually Dr. Cossack in MM4 until I beat his castle.

The opening cutscene for ninja gaiden I is in the top 5 nes cutscenes of all time, maybe best ever. Music fits perfectly too.

I thought Protoman was already evil because of Mega Man 3. I didn't have the instruction booklets so I didn't know Break Man and Protoman were different.

It really does look like he's merged with some kind of wrinkly organic brain-like matter. And he has antennas.

Then in Ninja Gaiden II it's like Jaquio grew a bunch of huge spider or crab legs or some poo poo.

This reminds me a lot of Dark Force and the Profound Darkness from the Genesis Phantasy Star games.

His fireball pattern is actually pretty difficult, if you aren't using the spin slash (which is cheating).

Love those games.

I could never tell, in part 3, in the guy you ran into in the ship was supposed to be Mecha-Foster, or Mecha-Jaquio. Like, Foster was all over the place in that game, but the Mecha-monster guy had a big roman nose like Jaquio.
