Woah. Clear the game 30 times? Some of these are crazy.
4. Mickeymac
22 Sep 2008, 22:45 BST
42-49 don't sound too hard, if you have the right weapon. Everything else is probably going to lead to more than a few broken controllers.

Dammit! Thats the one I wanted to unlock!
9. Drizzt
22 Sep 2008, 22:54 BST
Fight a boss for 10 minutes? That's epic. Survival mode really
.
19 Gamer's Day - Clear the game 5 times in 1 day.
Some of these challenges are both amusing and challenging!
10. zss_shadow
22 Sep 2008, 22:57 BST
09 Mr. Perfect - Clear the game without getting damaged.
Dear Capcom,
NO.
-zss_shadow
I now know I'm not gonna bother doing these.
11. DaVeMaN99
22 Sep 2008, 22:57 BST
Well for 19 cant you play the game once everyday for 5 days, but just go to wii calender and change the date to the same one everytime?
I wont do it because it sucks the fun out of it, but i still probably wont get it.
12. darkmagi_82
22 Sep 2008, 22:58 BST
Yay achievements, this will make me want to play the game even longer.
My favorite is: 19 Gamer's Day: Clear the game 5 times in 1 day.

22 Sep 2008, 23:01 BST
i got eco fighter and conqueror.They were easy to get. So was beating galaxy man. #41 just run around ALOT.
14. Mario64DStyle
22 Sep 2008, 23:02 BST
Some of these sound really hard >_>
Dang...
Its nice to have goals set for myself when playing a game though =P
Although I'm sure I won't pass many of them..
To be honest.. I havn't downloaded this game yet.. My wii is still sitting in my sports bag cause I came home from my dads house last night haha... I'll get it later..
(*Expects a 9*)
15. DaVeMaN99
22 Sep 2008, 23:05 BST
@tantrumario
Yeah galaxy man was really easy, and the level was also easy. Beat any other levels?
16. Final_Starman
22 Sep 2008, 23:05 BST
Wow, these are such a waste of time. I wouldn't bother with these even if I was seriously bored or if I'd get a 75% discount on every video game I would buy for the rest of my life! Wait, beat the 8 bosses without your helmet? What's that supposed to mean? Is it like Mario's cap in Super Mario 64?
17. DaVeMaN99
22 Sep 2008, 23:09 BST
@Final_Starman
No i think theres a extra option to be megaman without your helmet.
And its not like their forcing you to do these challenges, there just for fun and to make the game last longer
18. tantrumario
22 Sep 2008, 23:09 BST
@DaVeMan99
I only beat Galaxy man cause i only played for 20 minutes. I wonder if WWW will make a buddy list kind of thing. I tried Magma mans stage and the dragon is hard.
19. Iggy
22 Sep 2008, 23:21 BST
sweet i cant wait to get this game looks like its going to be tough as nails to fully complete the game.

Holy ****! That is some really hard crap to do ... damn it where are my Wii points for this game
23. blockhead
22 Sep 2008, 23:47 BST
i dont if yall no this but i just checked and mega man 9 is number 2
24. Objection_Blaster
22 Sep 2008, 23:48 BST
By my calculations about 40% of these are hellishly impossible
And none of them seem easy. Everyone post the ones you've obtained, ja?
EDIT: Also, with this article 4 out of 10 articles on the front page is about MM9! Domination...
25. megacody
22 Sep 2008, 23:51 BST
Man, I spent my $20 on Bad Fur Day while i waited for this game. I probably do everything except mr. perfect.
26. Naturestee
22 Sep 2008, 23:54 BST
Sweet. That really encourages people to play it a ton, instead of playing it once and leaving it alone like a lot of other games. Not like I'll be able to get any because I'm horrible at Mega Man games, but I think it's cool that the challenges/achievements/whatever are there. Most of those are ones worth bragging about!
27. Mario64DStyle
22 Sep 2008, 23:58 BST
I wonder if you get anything special for beating the game 100%
28. Corbie
23 Sep 2008, 00:00 BST
If I make it through the game once I'll consider myself lucky. Sheesh!
29. Mario64DStyle
23 Sep 2008, 00:22 BST
Just downloaded it X-)
Playing concrete man's stage.. this game is insane >_>
EDIT: Is it sad that I have fallen down that first hole thrice in a row now?
Also, who else here is excited for the Heroes season 3 to start?!?!
30. DaVeMaN99
23 Sep 2008, 00:44 BST
@Mario64DStyle
No, i did too. That random thing just pops up and kills me.
I always forget about it too.
I still only beat galaxy man though : (.
Magma man is so annoying though, he just jumps around and shoots a 3 shot spread.
31. Clayfrd
23 Sep 2008, 01:11 BST
This game is great. I only have Eco Fighter so far because I've only played it a bit. I'll make it a goal to get 50% of these, and then see where I can go from there... I'll have to determine the Robot Masters' weaknesses so I can do the "down in 10 seconds" thing. Hmm. I could probably fight Galaxy Man for 10 minutes. Crap... I just beat him.
32. Hilanderous
23 Sep 2008, 01:46 BST
I feeling the burn. I'M FEELING IT!!!!
33. Ferret75
23 Sep 2008, 01:48 BST
I got about 5 of them right now.
(I got the one you need one life left for by accident. XD)
34. tantrumario
23 Sep 2008, 02:07 BST
i actually got an interesting one speed metal in tornadoe mans stage(even though i technically should've got hard rock).
35. Twilight Crow
23 Sep 2008, 02:29 BST
At this moment I have beaten Galaxy man and Concrete man, and I got the conqueror, vanquisher and eco fighter challenges.
I'm not going to finish all those challenges but there are a few it might be fun to try.
36. whalleywhat
23 Sep 2008, 02:35 BST
I've only beat Galaxy Man and Splash Woman so far, I doubt I'll be getting many of these any time soon. Still, it's cool that they're there, something to work towards.
p.s. the DLC should've been unlockable for beating these instead of having to pay for it.
37. mailanbr
23 Sep 2008, 02:58 BST
I know. I have only beaten ONE of these challenges so far. And that killing 100 enemies. And once the achievment was unlocked, I swear, it was so much like XBox. But nonetheless, this game is sweet and was definitely worth those 1000 points. Not like the other WiiWare games where I only play it for awhile.
38. Mickeymac
23 Sep 2008, 03:08 BST
I only got the "Conqueror" and "Eco Fighter". Those are basically the booby prizes of the game, I still got a ways to go for the real prizes.
39. DDR Paladin356
23 Sep 2008, 03:54 BST
cries Some of these are CRAZY!
I've only beaten Magma Man. I dont know who I should go after now though. I found an easy way to beat him by his pattern. Cant seem to do the same with the others.
This is my first Mega Man game since 8...but I guess many people dont think its that good...8 that is.
40. Objection_Blaster
23 Sep 2008, 04:14 BST
More wii(ware) games should have achievements!
I love how my Valve games on my PC do! (TF2 and Portal)
41. stowrag
23 Sep 2008, 04:19 BST
3 cheers for capcom for not skimping out on achievments for the wii release. and another three for adding downloadable content when other companies wouldn't (rock band). and another three for the idea of making a new nes game to begin with. as a single console owner, i'm very happy right now. It almost makes up for discontinuing megaman powered up/maverick hunter/legends.
42. worrybomb
23 Sep 2008, 05:11 BST
Well looks like I have some achievements to achieve right away.
In other related news, Mega Man 9 is the most popular rated WiiWare game. Congratulations to all for supporting the Blue Bomber =)
43. Dazza
23 Sep 2008, 06:48 BST
Wow straight to #1, that has to be a record!
44. samus2008
23 Sep 2008, 07:12 BST
so far, ive only beaten galaxy mans stage, and ive gotten acheivements 24,25, and 40
45. Corbie
23 Sep 2008, 07:35 BST
Number 1 with a bullet! I figured it would shoot to the top pretty fast. It's too recognizable not to.
46. 23 Sep 2008, 10:13 BST
I have a lot of achievements, over 50%. I also got Gamer's Day. ^_^
I found a good stage for the Hard Rock and Heavy Metal challenges. It's not hard. Just think a little and you'll find one of the stages is great for both. Just... don't try to do them at once, unless you're really stupid hardcore like that. X_X
Challenge 9 is indisputably the hardest one. Coincidence?
47. Objection_Blaster
23 Sep 2008, 12:28 BST
@stowrag-Sorry but nothing makes up for Megaman Legends being discontinued. On a related note, THAT is an awesome wiiware title idea. Megaman Legends 3 for Wiiware (1500 pts)!! Then they could also release 1 on the VC! (2 was a PsOne title unforcunately)
48. 1080BOMBER
23 Sep 2008, 16:49 BST
WOW!! That's alot of stuff to unlock. WOW!!!

Oh, and (dare I say it:) another noticable avatar change: SuperMario64DStyle. Conspiracy.....
50. MarkyVigoroth
23 Sep 2008, 18:58 BST
Gamer's Day is my least favourite; it looks impossible!
By the way, WiiloveitOnline-san, I also did not get Rockman 9.
51. mailanbr
23 Sep 2008, 20:45 BST
Wow, Megaman 9 got in #1 in what? 2 days? Man, this game is so good, but at many times, it pisses me off. I am surprised. I was just messing around on GalaxyMan's stage, and found out that I was able to do the Speedster Challenge. That one where you always have to be moving. Hm, and to tell you the truth, I did stop once or twice and here and there, but still got it. These challenges will make many people pissed, but man, it just gives so much replay values. All Wii games should do this. The only other one I know is Metroid Prime 3.
52. Objection_Blaster
23 Sep 2008, 21:35 BST
@Wiiloveitonline
at least until the next PW game!
Well, I don't plan on ever changing my avatar.
53. Serpent
24 Sep 2008, 00:08 BST
who ever can complete all those challenges has no life XD.
Some of those just seem impossible....the game is already hard enough.
54. Clayfrd
24 Sep 2008, 04:00 BST
@PuppetMasterKuruku - I just got Hard Rock (don't get damaged) and I found that hints enclosed*Tornado Man's stage was easy to avoid damage on (especially the second time), and I'm going out on a limb and saying Splash Woman's is easiest to avoid shooting anything on, but I haven't gotten that achievement yet. *end hints I'm still loving the game!
55. 24 Sep 2008, 10:05 BST
^ Well, as long as you're giving hints, I'll tell you I did Tornado Man for both, it's the easiest stage bar none, if you ask me.
I only have 14 challenges left as of this post. I just finished Bust a Move.
...and I'm still terribly addicted to this game, and the DLC isn't even out yet. As a gamer, it's the most fun I've had playing a video game in a very long time.
EDIT: Make that 10. ^_^

24 Sep 2008, 20:14 BST
Eco-fighter sounds do-able
57. Borris
30 Sep 2008, 01:59 BST
It's impossible to beat the game without earning Eco-Fighter, unless you choose to beat your first boss with the Rush Coil for some strange reason. Impossible not to get Whomp Wily! either. And many others are really easy.
For my part, I just got my 34th challenge with Peacekeeper. That one's crazy. It really forces you to rethink the way you can get past a lot of the game's enemies.
