Recently replayed this and it's a big upgrade from Xtreme.
A handful of new bosses and stages.
There is one down side to this. One of the new bosses (Isaz/Spinx Tank) is the worst boss in any Megaman game it is just frustrating to deal with.

The 8 boss stages are remixes of the originals instead of just ripping a small section from the SNES stages like Xtreme did.
You can now play as Zero and even have his abilities similar to X4. You also get a armor set for Zero (just upgrades ATK/DEF).
There is a somewhat interesting story this time.
There's also a boss rush mode that lets you choose between the bosses from the first xtreme or this one.
Plays pretty well overall considering the hardware it was on.
Would have loved to see these Xtreme games continued on better hardware.
