Howdy everyone, it's been awhile since the last major Mega Man proto release. But in case you missed it, another Legends proto surfaced a month ago. An early prototype of Mega Man 64. Mega Man 64, as we all know, is the Nintendo 64 port of Mega Man Legends, originally released on PlayStation. From its petroleum-smeared textures to a stuttering framerate, as well as stripped content and badly compressed sound, MM64 is a mediocre port of great game, with character, personality and technical cleverness. It's what compelled me and several other cool dudes to preserve the prototype.

please watch, i spent a long time making this video. please?[/spoiler]
The video above exhibits, with annotations, the oddities throughout the proto and the test rooms that lurk underneath the surface of the game's code, all while poking fun of said things. It appears to be at the stage of when it was just being ported to the N64, as all reference to the PlayStation game remain in this proto. I hope you have fun watching and fun playing the proto.
