    Default mega man 8 - can you save during wily tower?

    Yesterday morning before going out I beat the first two stages of wily tower in MM8 and saved afterwards (from the shop I believe). I came back today and it isn't there. wtf?

    edit: I just tried it again and it wasn't from the shop, it offers to save between each Wily Stage

    Nope. They made it like the older Megaman's before it - ie, make it past the first wily level and get a password, and that password will only get you to the beginning of the wily stages.

    I totally did what you're describing on accident - it's bullshit. They should have just not had the save option available there at all if it wasn't supposed to do anything in the wily stages.

    Okay good - I'm glad I'm not the only one. It's pretty confusing. I'd call that just plain poor programming.

    I'm pretty sure this only affects the Playstation build, and is corrected for Anniversary Collection.

    Total non-sequitor, but when I read the title to the thread I thought about this obscure little Irem game:

    For some reason there's no sound in MAME with it. It was released in the U.S. as "Atomic Boy". Neato!

    Okay, back on topic.

    I assume by this you mean that it no longer offers to save while in Wily Tower, correct? Or does it permit you to save in Wily Tower?
