The pic of Wily's castle in my feed just brought a rushing flood of childhood memories I totally forgot about, when I drew that castle and megaman ALL day at school, over and over! I need to buy this game again. Thanks Erin!
The Bubble Lead power up is meant for those areas where you fall through the floors, the bubbles will go down the holes so you can locate them and easily jump over them. Also, congratulations!
I put both of your Mega Man 2 videos in my personal playlist, because it is one of my favourit NES games. So that I can watch them again and again whenever I feel like it. You do the lazer part like a boss. I always struggle and go to game over there cuite some times.
I don't know if anyone mentioned it before. On the part with the holes in the floor 8:15, you can test where they are with the bubbles so it's not so mean.
Congratulations! It's a great acomplishment, the classic Megaman games are relentlessly tough! I never managed to get that far but you got me inspired to try again.
I pulled out all my Mega Man NES games and my PS2 Collection last week. I guess with the two collections releases everyone has got Mega Man feels again, lol. Another good video!
I found out about this channel recently and really like it. Great job beating Mega Man 2! You definitely have many tricks up your sleeve when it comes to this game!
Mega Man is one of my favorite childhood games other than Ninja Turtles and Mario, I love your retro game plays thanks for sharing 😁 brings back memories for me
Holy Cow Erin, Thanks so much for this video!!! MM2 was a bane of my childhood existence, but this video served as a perfect guide for me to finally beat it on my childhood NES which I recently snagged from my childhood home. It may have taken 30yrs but GET REKT DR. WILY!
Love this game.........I remember the happiness I felt when I beat it for the first time as a kid shortly after it came out. Great times........great job Erin!!
Don't know if anyone's mentioned the menu trick, but if you rapidly hit the menu and return when the orbs fire the shots will pass harmlessly through you. Buys you a little bit of time if you do it correctly. Same with the drop through the spikes, if you call the menu and return it will reset your fall rate to zero and you'll have lots of time to adjust left to right as needed.
Hey Erin! Glad you could ebjoy this timeless classic. So many weekends I've rented this game as a kid. It came to a point where my mom used to ask "dont you want to choose something else?" Nope! 😂 I love this game so much. Btw Quick Boomerang is KING in this game with Metal Blade a very close second.
There's a glitch with the boss at around 10:15. When you see them start to flash, they're about to shoot at you. When it happens, start spamming the start button, going from the menu, to the screen over and over again. The game wont register the shots, and they'll go through you. And if you just look up walkthroughs on YT, you'll see how you can get through that without having to die and farm for more Crash energy. Also, for Airman, it's best to stay on your Megabuster, and spam him with that, and once he gets close to you, hit Start, and then go to the Leaf Shield and finish him off. You should practice more at the game. You don't look bad for someone who is new to MM. Keep playing it, and it'll help you develop skills for all the other 8-bit MMs.
I enjoy watching you play these old games from my childhood. You're my favorite! Now go out and have some Crashman drill-looking soft serve ice creams😀
Hesa Mega Mega MAAHHNN!! You Live It Erin! This Music in the last level is the bomb! It's not fair that you disappeared at that Dragon boss, yet you STILL won! LIVE TO WIN!!!
Erin Plays , HIGH 5! You are a very cool gal! Hooray for YOU! It's cray-zeh that this is an easier Mega Man game, but .... It still IS kinda hard and stressful. (I was getting stressed out just watching you..) Lol. I suck at most Nintendo games. My best friend and his wife just have a ball and play all these hard old school video games all the time. Man... (A sound of exasperation) "Whew!" ... Much too stressful for meee. Lol. (They CAN be a lot of fun though, riiiight??) Ha haaa!
Great job! Side note, Wily didn't transform into an alien. It was just a remote control robot as shown in the ending. Now you don't need to feel creeped out!
As an older gamer, first system was an Atari 2600 when it first came out, ( man I'm old, haha ). Your uploads are very fun to watch. The Intellivision vid was interesting considering I never knew anyone who owned one. Other than Castlevania and Mega Man, all the NES vids you do have been totally new to me. Very happy that I found your channel. Jim ( Xero )
Nice done! You have that natruall gamespirit like me, being all like so happy when you finish a hard section in the game. The MM for NES is one of the best game series if you ask me. Have 1-5 for myself and play them on a regular basis :-) I'm kinda sad that they didn't release MM6 in europe thou, that is the one thing I miss. Keep on the Good game spirit of yours and I would love to see you tackle Legend of Zelda, the adventure of my childhood 😍 See you in your next video :-)
I dig how the second bosses explosion flashed, and I could see it on your face 😂 Dudette, you got your ass kicked by the wall mounted, shooting half globe things Lol You persevered.
At 9:20 you can just use the Leaf Shield and just stand on the platforms as they move and it will kill everything that tries to touch you. Great run though Erin!
That end scene with the helmet on the ground is really cool. I’ve never played Mega Man 2 and hadn’t seen it before. You’re right - would look great framed/shadowboxed/etc.
Great Job Erin! I've played and beaten this game plenty of times but never knew u could go metal on Metalman and beat him in one hit. You know u can do the same on Woodman with a fully charged Heatman weapon. One of the all time classic games. Hope u video some of the other MegaMan NES games. They're more difficult though. 😉
Fun fact: In the Mega Man Official Complete Works art book, the bosses in Wily's castle are actually named! They are Mecha Dragon, Picopico-Kun, Guts Tank, and the boss with the orbs and walls is... I kid you not... Boobeam Trap.
Wow Erin you're savage. Lol i beaten mega man 2 a few times but only when i was a kid. I tried it again not long ago, along with other mega man games and i just can't beat them anymore. Lol props girl you're pretty awesome
I just beat this game for the first time this week too! It's a pretty awesome feeling to beat this one. I think because you have to really work for it. It's not a long game but it takes some time to get all the timing down.
A little hint about the tricky holes in the fake floor (in the purple stage): Use the Lead Bubbles, they travel along the floor when you shoot it, and you will see where it dips down into the fake floor :)
Hi Erin! I’m a new sub to your channel! It fills me with joy to see these excellent old games , classics of my time , being played by such a positive and happy person ! Your commentary is great , a little goofy and a little sarcastic and not presumptuous ! Keep up the good work!
Yay! You beat Mega Man 2. I knew you could do it. Congrats, Erin! Plus, you'll reach another milestone, once you get to the 10K sub, which is very soon. You're almost at that mark! Keep it up, Champ!
Terracotta, maybe, but I'd say that Crash Bomber is more of a peach yogurt color. If it helps, Item 3 is much better for climbing walls than Item 1. For the false floors in Wily 4, you can shoot Bubble Lead, and it'll fall through them, showing you where they are. The toxic drops in the last stage won't hit you if you keep moving right and NEVER slow down, believe it or not. I do agree that the final shot is really nice, and I'd totally hang something like that up, if we had any wall space. I've also always found it strange that you need bubbles to beat the final boss in this, because Capcom also put out Willow around the same time, and the magic that you need to beat the final boss in that also looks like bubbles.
Yeah, I while editing I realized that I should have used 3 in some places, but ah well. And that's very interesting about Willow! I haven't played that.
Willow's great! It's little like Zelda, but with RPG elements, and unbelievable graphics. It also has this neat system where stronger swords are heavier, so they're slower to swing until you level up a bit. I didn't even like the movie, and I really enjoyed the game, and it has what is, for my money, one of the greatest adventuring themes of all time.
You Beat MegaMan 2 and you kick Dr. Wily's ass and it's all about confidence and patience. I knew you can do it and you did it Erin ☺️ and I'm a retro gamer as well and most of all great video Erin ☺️👍 and your a great inspiration to others and a good person.
Just found this video, and since I love all things megaman I instantly liked and subscribed! Great channel. If I could put in a request, please play megaman 11 when it comes out.(I know it isn’t 8 bit but it looks so good!)
Congrats! Every hardcore retro gamer needs to beat megaman 2 at least once imo you should beat it on difficult sometime it's really not that much harder plus I like the crash puzzle boss you can do it in 1 go there's a trick to it but good job!
I like Erin because she gives "Our kind" a voice. When I talk about "our kind" I mean people who wear glasses or 4eyes. And nobody else can call us 4eyes because we would be incredibly angry! Our people have had it rough in the past. 4eyes lives matter too. Sadly most crime against 4eyes is by other 4eyes.
In Wily 4, how to farm enough weapon power for Crash after getting rid of the walls? I always friggin struggle while in the hallway with those dang Sniper Armor's and Sniper Joe's, but going back further doesn't seem to be a good choice, given there are only Telly's which drop their loot into the spikes, or Neo Metal's, who don't seem to be worth the effort.... WHAT AM I MISSING???? I did it as a child (on easy) I remember, but now (on normal as an adult) I am sooooo stuck....... PLEASE help me, I need advice!!!
I remember a strange glitch when I was playing this back in 1989. During the final Wily battle, I was using the bubble lead as usual against the hologram. For some reason I switched to the quick boomerang to see what other weapons worked on it, unfortunately its health completely regenerated. WTH.
TEAM TERRACOTTA!!!
Los sinson
I'm with you Bryan! :) Happy to find this channel via youtube creator on the rise. :)
jason you thirsty much?
It's salmon.
The pic of Wily's castle in my feed just brought a rushing flood of childhood memories I totally forgot about, when I drew that castle and megaman ALL day at school, over and over! I need to buy this game again. Thanks Erin!
Classic video game levels with classic video game music!
The Bubble Lead power up is meant for those areas where you fall through the floors, the bubbles will go down the holes so you can locate them and easily jump over them. Also, congratulations!
This was my childhood, thanks for doing the playthrough. Your commentary was most pleasant.
Congratulations on beating Mega Man 2! You deserve a terracotta colored ribbon.
This was like having that favorite saturday morning cartoon come on in the evening...😀😍
It’s rare to have a youtuber that does chill but entertaining commentary. Soooooo good job
Thank you!
I love watching you play games. No matter how good or bad!!!
19:49 Pure unadulterated joy. Love that reaction. Way to go, Erin!
I put both of your Mega Man 2 videos in my personal playlist, because it is one of my favourit NES games. So that I can watch them again and again whenever I feel like it. You do the lazer part like a boss. I always struggle and go to game over there cuite some times.
never gets old seeing some one finish mega man 2. Congrats Erin!!
One of the best video game sound tracks.
I don't know if anyone mentioned it before. On the part with the holes in the floor 8:15, you can test where they are with the bubbles so it's not so mean.
one of my most favorite games thanks for bringing back oldies but goldies =D
Congratulations! It's a great acomplishment, the classic Megaman games are relentlessly tough! I never managed to get that far but you got me inspired to try again.
I pulled out all my Mega Man NES games and my PS2 Collection last week. I guess with the two collections releases everyone has got Mega Man feels again, lol. Another good video!
Yes I've owned every collection at one point. Glad its all digital now. One of my favorite franchises ever.

Your face when you finally beat Dr. Wily is priceless.

Yes!!! New Erin Plays. My weekend is complete. 👍🕹
You're awesome! I loved that you love MM2 and want to frame that ending photo. I might do that in my house. Subscribed!! Now and forever.
you can use bubble lead at 8:18 to see where the dropoffs are at
Enjoying your Videos. 🙂 You got a new Fan in Germany 👍
Easily my favorite Mega Man of all time! Still have my cartridge from when my brother and I got it new in 1988. Awesome playthrough.
Beating Mega Man 2 for the first time is so damn satisfying. It’s like a rite of passage. Congrats
There's a glitch with the boss at around 10:15. When you see them start to flash, they're about to shoot at you.

You should practice more at the game. You don't look bad for someone who is new to MM. Keep playing it, and it'll help you develop skills for all the other 8-bit MMs.
I was just gonna type this out...but, you already did it for me. Thanks! Lol
Transfiguration yeah, I used the slow mo feature on an aftermarket controller, and the "spamming the start button" trick is super effective.
Awesome run! It was fun watching it! 🙂
I'm glad i'm watching you play, i would get too mad too quick lol great vid!
i hit you with a subscribe because this is a pure gaming channel love it
The favorite part of my favorite mega man game ! Thank youuuuuu
I love the things that you say and how you make yourself laugh, Erin. You're so adorable.
I enjoy watching you play these old games from my childhood. You're my favorite! Now go out and have some Crashman drill-looking soft serve ice creams😀
Solid run! One of our favorite runs, as well
We, uh... we also bit the dust on the water spikes 😂
Hesa Mega Mega MAAHHNN!! You Live It Erin! This Music in the last level is the bomb! It's not fair that you disappeared at that Dragon boss, yet you STILL won! LIVE TO WIN!!!
Yeah there was unfortunately some flickering in the game capture. Thanks for watching! :)
Erin Plays , HIGH 5! You are a very cool gal! Hooray for YOU! It's cray-zeh that this is an easier Mega Man game, but .... It still IS kinda hard and stressful.

Found you channel because of Mega Man 2 I have to watch more of your videos
Congrats, Erin.
Yeah; the end boss is just an alien projection, that's all. A big projector.
I've been playing this game since I was eight and I've always fought the orb/wall boss the exact same way! Great job!
As an older gamer, first system was an Atari 2600 when it first came out, ( man I'm old, haha ). Your uploads are very fun to watch.

Yes he’s Mega for a reason totally awesome game & gameplay
Thanks Erin great video 🙌🏻
Nice done! You have that natruall gamespirit like me, being all like so happy when you finish a hard section in the game. The MM for NES is one of the best game series if you ask me.

Keep on the Good game spirit of yours and I would love to see you tackle Legend of Zelda, the adventure of my childhood 😍 See you in your next video :-)
Mega Man's jump is friggin awesome it's like he's so excited xD
I dig how the second bosses explosion flashed, and I could see it on your face 😂 Dudette, you got your ass kicked by the wall mounted, shooting half globe things Lol You persevered.
Hey Erin, I just found your channel. Great content, keep up the good work!
You can farm the slinky dudes with Quick Boomerang too, Erin 😉
For the invisible holes in 3rd wily castle stage you can use bubble lead to know where the holes are.
At 9:20 you can just use the Leaf Shield and just stand on the platforms as they move and it will kill everything that tries to touch you. Great run though Erin!
I have spent my afternoon drinking wine and watching all of the videos from this channel I just discovered.
I'm glad you found me! :)
Me too!
That end scene with the helmet on the ground is really cool. I’ve never played Mega Man 2 and hadn’t seen it before. You’re right - would look great framed/shadowboxed/etc.
The Crash bombs boss is frustrating because I never remember the order to destroy the walls ;-)
Great job! Now onto Megaman 3!!
Mega Man 2 is awesome! And so is Erin! :D
Good job on the dragon. That took me forever.
You are amazing! Keep it up!
3:17 between the sprite flickering and the slowdown, this looks like the worst fight to try to do on the actual console. You nailed it, though.
Would you say that you're a "fan" of Airman? haha
Congrats on beating the game! :-)
Great Job Erin! I've played and beaten this game plenty of times but never knew u could go metal on Metalman and beat him in one hit. You know u can do the same on Woodman with a fully charged Heatman weapon. One of the all time classic games. Hope u video some of the other MegaMan NES games. They're more difficult though. 😉
Love your channel! Watched this, the other robot master video, an the contra video. FYI for contra you can shoot diagonal. Lol .i subscribed
This is the kind of commentary that I come here for!
Creator on the Rise: Playing classic NES games. epic.
I love your channel , greetings from chile :)
I bought megan man 2 with my birthday money at toy's r us. Now the store is gone just like my childhood. Oh the memories.
I never thought that mega man 2 was going to be in the gaming section of the trending option at RUclips.
Metal man was definitely the most useful suit on this game... One of the best NES games ever!!!
Good job erin, well played :)
Fun fact: In the Mega Man Official Complete Works art book, the bosses in Wily's castle are actually named! They are Mecha Dragon, Picopico-Kun, Guts Tank, and the boss with the orbs and walls is... I kid you not... Boobeam Trap.
Another great upload.
You had me at terra-cotta
I'm pretty sure that the thing towards the end that looks like a disco ball is actually an interocitor.
The terracotta thing cracked me the f up 😂
Wow Erin you're savage. Lol i beaten mega man 2 a few times but only when i was a kid. I tried it again not long ago, along with other mega man games and i just can't beat them anymore. Lol props girl you're pretty awesome
Fun playthrough!.... "Mega Man 2" is an all-timer. I've never seen anyone use the leaf shield for the birds like that before. Genius!.... Thanks!
Great vídeo erin
10k subs soon I can feel it!
This motivated me to finally get back into this game. I never knew about the specific order to take to make the game a bit easier.
I just beat this game for the first time this week too! It's a pretty awesome feeling to beat this one. I think because you have to really work for it. It's not a long game but it takes some time to get all the timing down.
A little hint about the tricky holes in the fake floor (in the purple stage): Use the Lead Bubbles, they travel along the floor when you shoot it, and you will see where it dips down into the fake floor :)

Hi there! Thank you so much :)
The holes in the floor on wilys castle can be found with bubble lead
Yay! You beat Mega Man 2. I knew you could do it. Congrats, Erin! Plus, you'll reach another milestone, once you get to the 10K sub, which is very soon. You're almost at that mark! Keep it up, Champ!
Thanks so much! :)
Seeing your genuine reaction to beating MM2 for the first time was the best part of the video. Cheers👍
I was super happy! I need to play MM3 soon. Thanks for watching!
@@ErinPlays My pleasure! Your show is awesome and your response to me here, made my week. Thank you, Erin 😍
