Yellow Devil Help?

[supernintendont]

I killed all the Robot Masters of MM1, and made it to the end of the Wily stage, but now I have to fight the Yellow Devil. I SWEAR THIS GUY IS IMPOSSIBLE. There's only one Steam guide on killing him that requires a controller that I don't have, so can anyone give me some tips on fighting him?

Actually, he is kinda easy when you memorize his padron. Remember to use Elec Man' s weapon and try to avoid his shots at any cost. Don't stay too close and don't stay too far from him when he begins to disintegrate.

use elec man's weapon when it hits the yellow man repeatedly tap the pause button that's all

If you don't know what the pause glitch is....when you press start and then Start again to go out of pause you Cancel out the Invinsability Frames....I reccomend this too

Here's a couple of tips if you want to beat the Yellow Devil without the pause-glitch:

- The Yellow Devil's weakness is the Thunder Beam from Elec Man.
- He can only be hit in the eye when he's fully formed, and only once per round (unless you use the pause glitch).
- His pattern are identical every round, so it can be memorized.
- Just ignore any flying blocks that comes flying above your head
- Make a small/medium height jump over all the blocks coming at your height, but see next tip
- The fourth jump each round is two blocks coming towards you, you want to make one long high forwards jump that takes you over both blocks.
- If you're at full health it takes seven hits from his blocks or shot to kill you, it also takes you seven hits from the Thunder Beam to kill the Yellow Devil.
- Don't Panic! If you can do just ONE flawless round, you can allow yourself to be hit once during every other round.
- Make a save state just before the fight with the Yellow Devil. The worst part of fighting him as a kid was that I had to do the whole stage all over again every time i game overed on the Yellow Devil.

Not any more it's not. They must have fixed that. Pulling the pause menu doesn't allow it to happen, and if you were meant to be able to pull up the weapon select menu, then they made it so it can only open when the shot is off screen. This fight has now become impossible for me. This piece of work kills me no matter how good I get at the pattern of movement. I'm lucky if I can get him just below half health before dying.

His pattern is always the exact same every time in 1. Or use the pause glitch. The Yellow Devil will return in other games though


Just wait until you see the Shadow Devil

Not working for me anymore. I did this a couple of years ago, but now i h ave a new computer and the megaman challenges are not saved in the cloud. when i press the pause button it takes a couple of seconds to work, that's when the beam already passed the yellow devil? maybe i'm just stupid

You're probably trying to use either the MMLC menu pause or the MM1 weapons menu pause, and not the actual MM1 pause function. There's a dedicated button you have to assign in the controls menu for the actual MM1 pause function, IIRC.
