Do the Megaman 9 leaderboards have a video/replay feature so you can actually watch and see how whoever got their time?
Fucking Weeaboo

If it were up to me, I would go by the game timer on the stipulation that the video would be rejected if they clearly waste time in menus just for the sake of goofing off, but no dedicated speedrunner would do that anyways.

Nope.  All you can do is pray they put it on YouTube.
I'd love to run Evo, but am unable to. :(
No matter how much I try, I can't seem to beat my current record for Tornado Man and I've pretty much given up trying to get into the Top10 for that. Unless I push for insane luck, I'll probably only bump off about 2-3 seconds, and that won't be enough.

I used to be in the Top10 for Wily Castle 1, but that was quickly bumped off. I don't really think I can do anything with that anymore, cause I thought it was as fast as I could mange to go.

The ruling on timing has generally been "if there's a timer, it's accurate, and it's displayed at the end, it's used".  So I would see no reason why the timer displayed after the credits would not be used.

yeah, I don't disagree..it's just, well, every MM game has gone by the old method of start to finish, and it seems like spending three seconds in-menu in order to save half a second is counterintuitive to the idea of speed running. I wish MM9 had a button for switching weapons without going through the menu a la MMX.

DLC Update: There is no story for Proto Man and he is not compatible with Rankings or Challenges.  Obviously for SDA purposes this doesn't matter, but for people who like keeping their times on the leaderboard, Proto Man has no impact.

Although Proto Man doesn't have a leader board/challenges do you still get a time after completing the game (and seeing the credits if there is any)?
If there isn't an In-Game time result then Protoman's runs will have to be real time.

I can't get him today since I'm in the UK and have to wait til Friday.

Well, we'll find out today.  I'm sure somebody will report in.
I dunno if I could request this somehow, but would it be possible for anyone who has the wii version to maybe (either on the 1st page of this thread or somewhere else) possibly post all the #1 times? (Including All Clear)  I know I know, it's a lot to ask anyone to do...but maybe Jesus is SDA  Wink

Maybe it could be updated every couple of days whenever it would be convenient...since i'm XBL I have no way of checking besides bothering people, and I think maybe other people would appreciate it too?

In any case I'd love anyone even if they just posted the times, though somehow updating it every so often would give my soul peace
I'm the guy who complains yet never submits XD
Well it would be good to compare the wii/ps3/360 to get the true fastest times.
If anyone wants the 360 times it's not to much trouble for me to get.
My feelings on The Demon Rush
If someone wants to be in charge of keeping track of the Wii, PS3, and 360 times, I can give them control of the first post.
Now a hit show on the CW
I don't mind checking all the Wii times, but someone would have to PM me any PS3 or XBL times that are higher than the Wii ones.

I haven't decided yet if I'm going to download Proto Man mode, but I'm definitely looking forward to trying out the Endless Mode. I watched some videos on youtube; it looks like a lot of screens were inspired by stages from past Mega Man games. You also have to fight the various MM9 bosses every so often. But I'm really curious to find out just how long the level goes on before it inevitably starts you back at the beginning. It seems to me that unless there's some ridiculously hard section that takes pure luck to get through alive, people would eventually memorize all the screens and could just farm enemies for health and energy refills when they start running low. Maybe enemies don't respawn offscreen in Endless Mode...I couldn't tell in the video. They definitely still drop refills, though.
Yes, a ninja riding a tiger.
So far, according to what I've gathered from a friend with the XB version, the Wii times appear to be the current best.  I'm sure another week or two will bring things closer.
I want off the ride....

I got protoman and played a few levels, he still has the timer MM does at least in the saving. But I donno if it displays after you beat it like MM; It'll be a while before I beat it with proto if only cause he requires a bit of different play styles.

Endless Mode is pretty fun. The level order is completely random, as is the order you fight the bosses in (it seems to be one every 30 screens). It does seem like you could farm for energy though, as enemies do respawn when you leave the screen. With enough patience, you could probably go on forever.
new category: longest single-segment endless mode run!

(not really.)
Woo, 2:02:00 on Wily Stage 3... I keep getting lucky with those round numbers.

Oh and the tip about jumping before detonating the second to last black hole is spot-on, the boss can be beaten consistently if you just remember that.
I don't even know what the fuck this is

I'll keep track of 360 times if it's still needed.

Wii's Endless Leaderboard requires at least 300 screens just to get on it, and the highest when I checked at like 5:30 CDT was at 955 screens. >_>;;
Yeah, I said it.
I fully expect someone to work on an endless mode run over several days and post a score of several thousand screens. Let's see how soon it happens.
Hi! I'm andrewg!
What qualifies as a screen? Just like every time one screen transistions to another?
A screen counts as either one screen transition to another, or some rooms counts as multiple "screens" because they auto-scroll.
Hi! I'm andrewg!
wow, so 955 is how many levels!? like 80 or something?

ALso, do you have to buy protoman or something?
More than eighty of their little mini-stages.

Yes, Proto Man is a buyable add-on. I'm not too impressed with only getting two shots on the screen, however.
I don't even know what the fuck this is
goddamnit, 1:21.83 on concrete man. I always make shitty little mistakes. I think I can get it down to 1:20.9 or so.

anyone else finding that Proto man takes damage like a biotch ?
I just can't beat wily 3; for anything... I think its cause its late and what not; I"ve been working at beating the game.
between the horrible problems of most bosses 3-4 shotting ya (and how badly I was getting owned by plug man).
It seems like if you were to speed Protoman, you'd want to NEVER get hit period. he moves back TOOO much and just eats damage.
Hell I gave up when i hit wily 4 with 1 e tank and 1 m tank (even though i continued all hell in wily 3, no more than 1 m tank is obtainable). So yeah.
I"m sorry i dont have a crappy confirmation of Protoman's time being displayed at the end of the game, nor would someone wanna see my 2+hr time. Protoman really is a DIFFERENT style. The jump shield is AWESOME when it worked (Hell i got it pretty well where I almost beat plug man with just the buster/charge cause I kept shielding the bolts he was sending out and kept away). No store/bolts hurts, but i think the thing that kills me is the damn 2x damage he seems to take!
anyone else agree with my assumption that he takes 2x damage of Megaman?
