A big disappointment. Everything that made special the first entry of the mega Man franchise in the game boy was now discarded in order to prioritize making a more NES resembling stage. The screen doesn't helps sometimes, most gimmicks are broken due to the rush abilities, and the soundtrack is not pleasant to listen.
Fortunately: there's fixes. The boss rush was made in a far more interesting way by virtue of making the stages playable on a second half run, without sharing a stage with the final boss (why did this happen before lmao) and the bosses no longer destroy your life energy in three attacks.
Sadly, that's not enough to make this a pleasant experience, is far weaker than its predecessor and way less charming.
Also Mega Man killing Wily in the ending is funny

Bomb Man track rocks. Bomb Man weapon sucks. Perfect duality

It's a very nice improvement over the first game. Bosses were way more easy to handle, music is a banger, stages were more solid. A terrible last section tho with a very disappointing final boss that feels like a final waste of time
