Man i save my states about every minute. On megaman zero witch is pretty hard i save every couple of seconds.

actually for megaman zero series, juz enter the cheat for infinite life if u juz wanna go thru the game... or do a more through hack to get LEVEL S for every stage even if u juz dash pass all the enemies to get to the boss... hahahaha.... ;) but this will totally lose the fun of playing the game... so do it sparingly... unless u wanna unlock the stupid minigames that megamanzero3 has......

I don't cheat.Unless you count save states as cheats.On the gba(real thing) it's really hard(for me anyway) to finish zero games.And i don't have a gameshark.So on emulators savestates are the way to go.it's almost like capcom made those games for emulators.

I only use it before boss battles or when I have to leave in a hurry. It's helpful when You have other pressing commitments.

I use save states when I come across a challenging spot that usually requires a couple tries, a hard minigame, or if I'm low on hp. sometimes also on lottery things.....sure it's cheating...but I don't care when I finally get that 999,999GP.....

There is some games that I could'nt save in the games so I used save state. But the thing was that I played the translated japaneas version of Pokemon Leaf Green and I could not save in the game. So I used save state. But when I had beaten the Elite Four, I could'nt save. :o And you must save to continue. So that was a bummer. :o Same thing happend to me in Final Fantasy Tactics. :o

I use to b a save state freak fearing death or missed hidden items or selecting undesirable conversation answer. Then I found out that it is more fun to just play the game normally. Now I only use them when i dun with 2 continue playing anymore.

you know i wish i could be like you.But in megaman zero it's impossible.Death is always round the corner,one bad jump,one mistimed attack,you are dead.Other games i'm more controlled.

Ah yes megaman zero is a total bummer. Its hard and some area just wants u micro well. The face that the game ranks u on ur performance makes it worst. S level all the way is quite impossible if there is no save state
