My first time playing this game in Mega Man Legacy Collection 2, and for Mega Man's jump to Super Nintendo, I say it was solid conversion, but not great

For the positives, this visual presentation and the spritework are great, Mega Man feels good to control, and the music is great. I like the new addition of the auto shop, using bolts as currency to buy items like Energy tanks or 1ups

For the negatives, for me it's the difficulty. It was easy and sometimes decent through most of my playthrough, and then there's Dr. Wily's stages. Easily one of the worst Wily castles in Mega Man alongside 1 so far, and don't even get me started on the final boss. The 1st phase was easy, but the 2nd phase was obnoxious. Wily will shoot 4 orbs, and there are fire, ice, and lightning elements, and they are tricky to dodge. The fire element is the worst since that would take the most amount of damage than lightning and ice. You might need to look up a guide if you want to beat him, and remember to breathe and concentrate, and it'll be all over

Overall, it's a solid Mega Man game, but I wouldn't say it's one of the greats in my opinion. If they could tweak a few things like Dr. Wily's 2nd phase, then could've be in my Top 5, but for now, it's 3.5/5 for me or 7/10
