One of the greatest intros to one of the greatest sequels in video game history. The music, the storytelling, the build up along with the cinematic flare. Legendary.
Get yourself an emulator and play it NOW. Or, maybe you are lucky like me and have a still fully functional original NES with all the games still working for it, including the "3-5 year" batteries for the save states.
Oftentimes we ruin music for ourselves by overanalyzing it into its smallest component parts and applying critical theories instead of just enjoying the synergy.
No wonder electronica and raves exploded in popularity in the 90’s. All us Nintendo kids were getting blasted by cutting edge bangers like this in our living rooms.
[Mega Man II Intro] (my take) The year is 20XX, there was 2 scientists, Dr.Wily and Dr.Light. They were best friends making robot for the better until Dr.Wily Turn on Dr.Light causing pain and agony, so Dr.Light engineered and built Mega Man, sent him on his way... 0:42 ... And so the story began...
HOLY SHIT! The first part of this song is the same as the credits theme from the first game. That's so fucking cool! It's a nice bit of contininuity that I never noticed until listening to the songs back to back.
Now do yourself an amazing favor and play this song back at .5 speed for the "metal" version of Mega Man II you never knew existed. Thank you super old cassette deck/stereo/turntable combo unit with the faulty record button that allowed me to record my games in "slow mo" all those years ago. Thought the analog recording sounded a lot "cleaner" in slow mo than the more digital recordings likely to be found on the youtube. Now, after hearing this great song that way, go listen to the Wizards and Warriors intro this same way. You'll cry because it sounds like a very sad, mournful song of despair.
Spore4ever Fuk .. That's why I'm here! I recognized it playing earthbound for thr first time. I caught it in the house music. Then lead me to megaman and finally Pollyanna (which is an amazing vocal song). I realized that rockman 2 was released 88..and mother in 89.thlufht it may have been the other way around. Regardless all good songs and similarities. Surprised more people havent pointed this out!
(Finally fixed these crap lyrics) The world's under attack And nobody is Here to save The freakin' day There's no one here Guess we're all doomed I guess it's time To say goodbye... Wait! There's someone up on the roof I don't think it's a hero You say? Could that really be? A hero I see?

But when you get one of the Mega Bombs Use it and you're good Giga de giga de Giga Gi-irl Nintendo has it right (Not Capcom) Giga de giga de Giga Girl Green without pearls With a Twirl Save the world Giga Girl!
Who's waching this in 20XX?
I am
debe ser en el año 208X por que los dos cientificos Tomas Light y Albert Wily son casi ancianos
Clever girl...

Isn't it 200X? I don't know where 20XX came from.
they was in the studio jammin
Hell yeah brother
So true dude, so true

20XX could be 2099 though

@@marcw.4077 Mega Man 1is set in 200X, the rest is set in 20XX, meaning that they can be set in 2030-99 or something
Everyone rise for the offcial Megaman anthem...
I think Megaman 3 would be better. If not, Megaman 4.
@@AwdryFan1997 Yep
This intro is IMO the most beautiful theme NES ever game us.
I also love how Mega Man 7's intro is actually a rendition of this one.
Old sniper flashback kicks in at 0:20

This brings me happiness from so many great childhood memories!
I honestly can't unhear Snow Halation at 0:12
I guess I must have missed that "high quality rip" lol :P
...unless your just that crazy and are hearing it out of nowhere lol.
There's an actual high quality rip of that, even though there's three notes which actually are the same as "todokete" at 0:12
Lolwutburger/Also known as Fmys lel
Same.
Me neither, to be honest, I searched up "Mega man snow halation" because I didn't know which game it was from.
Why am I getting goosebumps when I didn't even PLAY this game?? o0o
Get yourself an emulator and play it NOW. Or, maybe you are lucky like me and have a still fully functional original NES with all the games still working for it, including the "3-5 year" batteries for the save states.
It's great, you should play it.
I still get the damn CHILLS hearing this 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
the fact that the intro uses the credits theme from the first game is poetic in a way.
Who's waching this in 2020???
best megaman theme hands down!!
This is a sertified hood classic.
Put it at 1.5 speed and you'll understand what it feels like to explain Mega Man lore to someone who doesn't know anything about Mega Man.

Buddy was just chilling with his hair down like “ say less”
Goddammit: The eighth, double sixteenth note rhythm on the bass is bomb ass! Gets me every time!
Oftentimes we ruin music for ourselves by overanalyzing it into its smallest component parts and applying critical theories instead of just enjoying the synergy.
Masterpiece of music
Memories☺️☺️☺️
The MEGA Nostalgia.
his hair blowing fits perfectly with the music
omg I'm feeling that I back to 80s

In the Year 200X
On his 15th Birthday
A child left home...
On his dangerous and epic quest.....
To become The Guy!
It's 2023, and i'm in My room fucking vibing to This (G)old masterpiece
so beautiful, you could cry
When it hits 2100 it'll be officially past mega man 2
Solo unas semanas y ya estaremos en el año 20XX
[Mega Man II Intro] (my take)
The year is 20XX, there was 2 scientists, Dr.Wily and Dr.Light. They were best friends making robot for the better until Dr.Wily Turn on Dr.Light causing pain and agony, so Dr.Light engineered and built Mega Man, sent him on his way... 0:42 ... And so the story began...
It's perfect 🤩
This game's so simple, yet, gave me hell to finish it.
HOLY SHIT! The first part of this song is the same as the credits theme from the first game. That's so fucking cool! It's a nice bit of contininuity that I never noticed until listening to the songs back to back.
All I can think of is MG1 from the WLFGRL album lol
Best mega man theme
iconic theme
The thing about the mega man one is that the theme from mega man 2 is considered to be his main theme, super smash bros is an example of this
There’s nothing more nostalgic than a Nintendo game’s start screen!
*capcom
My childhood
Protoman theme is right below Megaman 2 intro. That's my humble opinion. 😎✌
Now do yourself an amazing favor and play this song back at .5 speed for the "metal" version of Mega Man II you never knew existed.

The beginning is just Pollyanna from MOTHER

Papa need some Help
(Finally fixed these crap lyrics)
The world's under attack
And nobody is
Here to save
The freakin' day
There's no one here
Guess we're all doomed
I guess it's time
To say goodbye...
Wait!
There's someone up on the roof
I don't think it's a hero
You say?
Could that really be?
A hero I see?
(Wait)
Giga de giga de Giga Girl
She's up on the freakin' roof
(She's Giga)
Giga de giga de Giga Girl
Heroic and aloof
Giga de giga de Giga Girl
Now backwards you would say
Girl Giga
Giga de giga de Giga Girl
She'll save the freakin' day
8 new robot masters
Giga Girl's a strong and fast girl
For Note Man and Spin Man
Use the Arm Cannon Blaster
I should tell how to beat these guys
BUT I WON'T!
But when you get one of the Mega Bombs
Use it and you're good
Giga de giga de Giga Gi-irl
Nintendo has it right
(Not Capcom)
Giga de giga de Giga Girl
Green without pearls
With a Twirl
Save the world

Masterpiece
This is the most epic intro ever
00:00 best Song forever seconds later +best
damn who was in the studio for that jam🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
It wasn't a studio it was chiptune
2023 this still slaps
Let’s admit this isn’t the first time you’ve watched this
Mega mega man. He's up on the f ing room he's mega, mega mega mega man heroic and a loof.
One of those iconic themes that even non-gamers know.
Everyone knows Super Mario Bros’ overworld theme too
dam i love this god dam song
This is the Easiest Megaman to Beat
00:00 replay button right here ;D
I tell my children that they were born in 20XX.
El mejor juego del mundo en 2024 ❤❤❤❤
Face it, y'all REALLY came here for 0:43
When you realize that 200X ended 13 ago
0:43 In Smash Bros (4 & Ultimate):
*MegaMan, Wins!*
Latam 😳
I got here because a big tower burger meme.
El opening de esté juego es genial
Who came back because of Mega Man 11?
que buen buen juego
Omg
I’m a super fightin’ robot from the year 2010-
The good part 0:43
0:42 the epic moment
Im Watching In 200X Anybody Else
This themes cool and very quick beat but MM3 is still way better! Much more effort in the composition.
Bring club penguin back please
0:13 Todokete
"high quality" perhaps for 2010, i need HI-FI
please understand this was a joke this is by far my favorite tune on the NES.
Wow the opening from the show is strait outa the games sequel only with.....
Better animation
Mega man rocks..thanks to keiji inafune and capcom
Get this to 1m
It's been 6 years of 20XX, this tune still rocks.
Noobis
20XX includes all years from 2000 to 2099. 2016 is the 17th year that could be written as 20XX.
in Megaman you have 200X and 20XX to signify post-2009
It's 201X, but super robot named Megaman still isn't created.
They call him Rockman for a reason
Almost 11 now :p
The drop brings goosebumps every time
Lee true
It is !
Duud it feels like a full body orgasm everytime
I felt the same just now.
So true
Whoever thought "let's give Rock windswept hair in the opening" was a genius
0:42 this lead up gives me chills every single time.
The drop always goes so hard
What's better, this theme or Mega Man 3's opening theme?
Damn you.
+snomaN Gaming This... slightly. MM3's opening is right up there, but I'd say this has it beat by just a hair.
your mom :v
i think 3's music is better, but the fact that 2's actually has an INTRO with it... makes it better
Snoman Gaming equal
0:00 Openning
0:43 Best song Ever
ese es de marvel vs capcom
