Title: Easiest/Hardest games to do buster-only runs?
Post by: Solar on March 19, 2013, 07:44:36 AM

Trying to beat the 3DS releases with only the buster unless necessary got me wondering what the general opinion on this was.

Of what I've tried so far with only the buster, 2 wins the "easy" one with 7 as its competition but being disqualified because [tornado fang] Wily. Hardest though, I can't really say until I play everything else again, but I'm gonna guess MM&B simply because it's freaking MM&B.

Most games where you can charge the buster aren't hard to do buster-only.

IIRC the worst parts of MM&B I normally do with the buster... like King 2, 3 and Wily. If you allow Hyper Charge and Auto Recover, they shouldn't be too bad. :)

Easiest?
World 2 hands-down. :P

You can kill EVERYONE in the game with the buster only.
Even better than using weakness.

The very first one. :3
Even Yellow Devil has predictable patterns, also the robot masters.

I'd say the easiest to do a buster-only run would be MM8 for me. But that's just because the controls are so fluid it's easy to avoid everything.

The hardest? MM6. That is, not counting the Rush upgrades.
