Mega Man X Series Unlimited 1-Up Areas?

[Redmage1987]

I know a lot of people know about the area in Mega Man X in Armored Armadillo's Stage where there is a Classic Bat that drops constant 1-Up's, but does anyone know of the similar area in Mega Man X2? Here's a video showing the trick...

Furthermore, does anyone know of any areas like this in the other Mega Man X Games? I know in X3 Frost Shield will make certain enemies always drop small or large energy pellets and Acid Burst will do the same, except it will make them drop Small or Large Weapon Capsules.

Just for added discussion, what's your favorite Mega Man X Game and why? I liked the SNES era X Games the most. My favorite is Probably X2. I like the Armor, the music is great, and having the option to rescue or fight Zero is cool. It also has one of the most minor, yet epic characters in Video Game History. R.I.P. Greenmage1987.

I actually prefer the first X game for SNES, cuz it was the one I played the most, and beat the most. Plus, I just loved how the characters were introduced, and Sigma was a villian NOT to be messed with.

As for unlimited 1-ups, I never knew anything outside the Classic Bat. I remember in the last Sigma stage for X1, I would charge up the rolling shield and use it to grind on the slugs on the wall before I got to Sigma. I once got three 1-ups in a row.

Very Cool, my good sir.

I actually have only farmed on the slugs in the final level of X1 once, and that was because I forgot to go to Armored Armadillo's stage to farm instead.

It was actually a pretty tough call for me between my favorite as X1 or X2. I would easily say that Mega Man X1 has the best weapon set in the entire X Series though.

Yep. That Storm Tornado is just full of win.

And yeah, the last stage is GREAT for getting prepared for the last battle. I think that was the designers' intentions.

I loved that "Classic Bat!" The Armored Armadillo stage is always where you can get Ryu's Hadouken powerup!

Thanks for the tip on MMX2!

I played a little Mega-man back in the day I only played X and X2 though but I think X1 is my favorite of the 2

Yep, and X2 had the Shoryuken. I still say X3 shoulda had the Tatsumaki-senpu kyaku.

And just to be fair, X4? F*ckin' Shun goku satsu!
