2:07:44at least not going my memory but its been 30+ years so i could be wrong
2:07:48i think saving before the boss is fair
2:07:49Starting with Mega Man 2, there was a password system implemented so you wouldn't have to beat the whole game in one sitting.
2:07:49Games couldn’t save back then so you got a password to continue if you ever had to turn off the game
2:07:50Okay, now, destroying the controller or cartdrige is justified
2:07:51back in the day, there was no save. so we used codes to keep the stages we cleared
2:07:53passwords are for beaten bosses. ignore them for now
2:07:57Mega Man didn't use saves til MM8 i think
2:08:02wasn't in the original game wemi
2:08:05Yeah, but you had to remember or write down the password yourself.
2:08:08it's was a thing back in the NES game, cause the NES didn't have a save feature built in it's system
2:08:17Sonic 2 didn’t have a save! And that was on the Genesis!
2:08:24Sonic 1 too didn’t have a save battery
2:08:26Play how you want! :_remiHeadpat::_remiHeadpat:
2:08:27password system was how saves worked til 8
2:08:38it got added to this for babies that can't beat the game
2:08:38quit listening to babies like you
2:08:41Also passwords were used to get to the specific part of a game or level
2:08:42savestates and save files are two different things lol
2:08:48it isn't hated. it's just that this game didn't originally have it
2:08:48there is a bit of a misunderstanding here we are talking about saviung AFTER beating a stage not in the middle of one
2:08:49It's like "you beat CutMan! Enter this password next time you play so you don't have to beat him again"
2:08:53they need others to suffer the game just like they did
2:08:55for people to practice that one part
2:09:05Zelda was the first with a memory chip
2:09:10Also save states wasn't a thing back then as of yet
2:09:13This is why old people are so slow and patient, we mastered our anger and fury. We learnt that we had to start over after each fail then we had to bring the NES back to the rental place after 2 days.
2:09:23wemi is playing the original game on original hardware back in 1980s. we're watching her play through a time portal rn.
