Chris and Hamilton are joined by special guest Nadia Oxford, author of the Maverick Hunter’s Field Guide, to talk about Mega Man X (1993). Along the way, they learn about Capcom’s difficulty growing Mega Man past its 8-bit roots, discuss changes between the original and its 2006 remake, and let listeners in on Dr. Cain’s secret weakness.

No need to listen to the episode to join in the discussion, though! Let’s talk about your favorite (and least favorite) parts about Mega Man X below.

This show is made possible by patrons like Cheatachu, Quinley Thorne, Celeste, Ed, Loren, Jasper, Cedric the Owl, and Jarathen.
