[TAS] GBA Mega Man Battle Chip Challenge "best ending" by mtvf1 in

[@GeminiTasiri]

For those confused about the gameplay: Unlike other Battle Network games, Battle Chip Challenge was a spin-off deckbuilder-ish game that switched from Action RPG to a very RNG-dependent autobattle system. Before each fight, you build a deck (the sideways pyramid-flowchart you see in battles) and each round the game would randomly select a "path" through it, activating all chips set on it in alternating turns between you and your opponent.
It was a very hands-off combat system, your only interaction during fights was limited to extra attacks via Slot-In chips that you could sneak into a turn, with the chance of success being determined by the increasing %-Meter you see at the bottom of the battle screen.

I can't get enough of these character designs. The Mega Man series has really great art in general, but Battle Network has one of my favorite aesthetics.

[@ladyirisbits9793]

I just looked up the details of the gameplay, and damn, the amount of rng manipulation needed it's just astounding

11:17 - WoodMan.EXE literally pulled out 'Pingas Launcher'.

I remember giving up on this because I didn't understand it.

Wildest part about this game that isn’t the drastic shift from regular BN combat is the same people who made the Zero/ZX games made this: inti creates. This is definitely different from anything they made before and after this to say the least-

[@carlosemilio5180]

Wait, did in-house capcom make bn? I swear inti made all the gba/ds games before making gunvolt on the 3ds and onward

[@t-universegamer7609]

@@carlosemilio5180 nope, they did do the zero/zx series as well as mm9/10, but everything else was made by capcom

I like to think this was the OG gacha game, or if not the first certainly one of the earliest.

[@akiradkcn]

if you want to be THAT technical the OG gacha games are just called gacha, I mean, literally. The term came from physical japanese toy-vending machines called "gachapon" after all

[@NetBattler]

I mean BN 1 has gachapon so this doesn't surprise me.

[@abraveastronaut]

My god this game goes on forever.

[@Soureika]

I remeber this game so many hours of my childhood gone to this game

[@azure1474]

All these 1 turn deletions and the game still rarely gives an S Rank. What scale are they working on?

[@radapox]

Lolol Imagine using Bass and you get c rank.

[@One-Week-Wizard]

They need to put out a collection of these games already. Or at least the first three and this.

[@Shoeclock]

Can't see it happening tbh.

[@NetBattler]

Unfortunately Crapcom thinks battle chip challenge don't deserve to be put in the collection....they don't even want to add network transmission

[@stevenpavelish6017]

Awesome TAS

[@brysongross9766]

I still love it this game

[@JC-xq2qe]
