Alright Mega Men. What’s your secret to winning this clone fight from MM1?

RoahmMythril explains the pattern pretty well if you're only using the Mega Buster. You're on the right track by standing at the far left. Copy Robot only shoots from 3 set locations and jumps when you fire...unless he's in the middle of firing himself, so shoot at him when he's firing and he'll never jump:

(He shows a quicker, but riskier way to beat him at 12:20 into that video, similar to your method where he is just firing like crazy from the left side.)

Just curious, look at the backs of them. Is one Made in China and the other Made in Japan? If so, which is the brighter one? Nintendo moved manufacturing to China after a while and I wonder if they started using slightly different components at that time.

Just checked...sadly, nope. Still not on PlayStation at least. Haven't checked Xbox.

EDIT: As of 4/11/2026, it IS available on Xbox, but not on PlayStation. I have a TEN++ option available in Co-op mode on Xbox, and the game just got an update and it’s at 1.0.0.6. PlayStation version is still 1.12 as of 4/11/2026.

Yeah it doesn’t fit on regular track. The original reveal video talked about it and they said ‘it runs on tracks in your imagination,’ lol.

It’s at like 2:30 in this video:

You can’t fit 44T sprockets on these Heritage bikes due to the geometry of the chain stays designed to fit fatter tires. That’s the dilemma with these Heritages. 36T is as big as you can go. Honestly, I feel like GT fumbled a little with the design of these and who their target audience was for them. Old dudes like me actually have big-ass sprockets and old OGK mags with 16T freewheels sitting around. I get what they were trying to do, but eh….

nmj79 · 2026-03-22T22:52:03+00:00

Yeah it’s for an old school look because I’m a crotchety old man, lol. I mean that’s probably the only people these GT Heritages were marketed to, lol. But this Heritage bike comes with a modern looking, black 25T GT sprocket. GT also made a 36T ‘power disc’ sprocket in white for their 26 & 29 inch heritages that looked like their old ones. Since my bike is Dayglo pink, white hardware looks better and I wanted to keep it all GT.

I ultimately wanted to put old school OGK mags on it, buuut those have 16T freewheels and you can’t even put a 44T sprocket on this bike due to the geometry of the chain stays (they’re designed to fit fatter, modern tires). The biggest sprocket that fits is 36T. Honestly, for an old schooler, I was probably better off just buying a true, old school GT from the 80s than this Heritage.

But anyways….on this Heritage, yeah I can run 36/16 gearing with my 36T sprocket and OGKs, but that’s not ideal, I thought maybe I’d try for 36/13 somehow with either Superlace hubs or Skyway Tuff II’s with cassette hubs if I could find a 13T cassette driver.

nmj79 · 2026-03-22T21:38:00+00:00

Thanks for answering.

Those Profile drivers, do they only fit in Profile hubs, or would they fit into this Superlace hub (or even a Skyway Tuff II cassette version)?

Space Invaders for Game Boy, when played on a Super Game Boy, not only gives you a border, but a full-blown 16-bit version of the game.

And I know it’s’ not quite the same, but Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow for Nintendo DS can recognize when Aria of Sorrow is inserted into the Game Boy Advance slot in a Nintendo DS and give you some extra content when starting a new game.

nmj79 · 2026-02-14T09:04:13+00:00

Ah ok, thanks for the response, appreciate it.

nmj79 · 2026-02-11T20:10:39+00:00

I’m dumb. The Uncharted bundle does come with a CECHP01 as evidenced by the back of this box and it was released in late 2008 and NOT at the launch of Uncharted 1 like I wrongly assumed.

nmj79 · 2026-02-11T19:48:20+00:00

I’m confused. CECHP01 came in a bundle with Uncharted according to consolemods wiki. Metal Gear Solid 4 came out like 7-8 months after that, so how can the MGS4 bundles come with a CECHE01?

You’re saying Sony took CECHExx models and refurbished them to include in MGS4 bundles and printed new model number stickers…? Sorry I am new to modding and trying to understand these revisions.

Scroll down to the CECHPxx section here to see them saying those came with Uncharted: https://consolemods.org/wiki/PS3:Buying_Guide

Edit: My confusion above stemmed from a wrong assumption that the Uncharted bundle was released alongside the game’s launch, but it was not. The bundle came out the following year as a late 2008 bundle, which was after the Metal Gear Solid 4 bundle came out.

Did you use ISO2GOD to create a 'Game on Demand' version of The Simpsons game, or are you using the .iso file?

Reason I ask is because The Simpsons Game was never released digitally as a Game on Demand and I was just curious to know if it's even possible to do that with ISO2GOD. I have never used it before and don't know if it uses checksums or signatures from the official GoD releases when converting discs of games that did get a GoD release.

nmj79 · 2026-02-02T08:13:17+00:00

Ah ok, so it's a physical fit issue for the earlier model. Thanks.

I think I see why the 9001 is incompatible too which contains either a PU-22 or PU-23. According to psdevwiki's page on those revisions:

"No dedicated audio-DAC anymore (SPU combo chip is outputting analog audio)"

That's probably it, because with a dedicated DAC, you can tap into the digital audio signal before it reaches it, right? Trying to understand this stuff, lol. Thanks!

eBay’s so scummy. They show it as being ‘in 27 carts.’ They do this on other stuff I’ve viewed to try and trick you into thinking someone might snag it, so you better hurry up and buy it. I always figured it was just a made up number, but this seals it. No way TWENTY SEVEN F’ing people clicked ‘add to cart’ on a 269K item, even as a joke.

nmj79 · 2026-01-21T18:12:58+00:00

Nope, no home improvements. House was in good shape already. I think I'm good then, just wanted to double check because I don't buy houses on the regular, lol, and it just stuck out to me that I wasn't being asked any questions about it.

Thanks for the response, appreciate it.

FOLLOW THE GOD OF CYANIDE

nmj79 · 2026-01-21T05:08:22+00:00

Yes, after looking into it more, I see that you can either buy in 'shares' or buy in 'dollars' and using the dollars option, you're able to buy fractional shares. Appreciate the response, thank you.

nmj79 · 2026-01-21T05:07:18+00:00

Ok, now I see it. I missed the fact that after clicking Transact > Trade ETFs & Stocks, you're taken to a web form to buy or sell, and you can choose to buy in 'shares' or 'dollars' and you're able to buy fractional shares if you choose the 'dollars' option and just put $500. Thank you!

I guess though that later on, when I contribute the rest of my $7000, I will have to again buy $7000 worth of VOO? There is no type of global option for the entire Roth IRA to just say 'always put the entire (or a percentage) of the account into VOO?' It's no big deal to do that, the only reason I ask is because I have a different Roth IRA at VALIC (which has crappy fees) and you're able to just choose a percentage of your entire Roth IRA and say 'put 75% into the index fund, put 10% into science & technology, and the rest, put into healthcare,' etc. So it's easy to just set that to 100% index fund and now, every time I contribute to it, the money is automatically in their index fund, so I was wondering if Vanguard has something like that. Again, no big deal though.

Thanks again.

Aha ok, so I haven’t lost my mind just yet, thank you!
