Honestly, it's ok. They really go hard on the gimmick of the "gears". Everyone says gear every other sentence, the Wily Stages are mostly gears. All of the robot masters utilize one of the Speed or Power Gear powers. Also, for some reason they call Mega Man "Mega" in this game. Before you say it, I know he's called Rock Man and his "civilian" name is Rock. I'd argue just calling him Rock in America as well. That's just my opinion. Still, it was kind of jarring.
One last complaint that is less of a nitpick, the soundtrack. Don't get me wrong, the compositions themselves are decent however the INSTRUMENTS used are lousy. It feels so lifeless for such a vibrant game. That's why the fan remixes sound so awesome, they don't really remix it, they just use the 16-bit X style instruments or the 8-bit instruments or even the Mega Man 7 instruments. Speaking of 8-bit, why is there no 8-bit option for the soundtrack? They put in an option for this slow-paced Jazzy rendition of the soundtrack as free DLC, but not an 8-bit version? Huge missed opportunity.
Everything else is solid. The controls are tight. The upgrades you can purchase in Auto's shop are extremely useful and you can turn them on or off at your discretion. Yes, that means you can have all the upgrades on at once if you want to. Or you can try to beat it without any upgrades, which is an achievement. The double gear system is fun and there's a risk reward to it with the full power DOUBLE since you need to be at low health to use it. The level design is classic, well thought out, and fair for the most part. You don't NEED the DG system to beat the game, and I think there's an achievement for that too. However, there are some sections that are a bit too tight in terms of timing if you decide not to use the Speed or Power gear.
Like I said, it's ok. I lean positive on this one. However, it's already been a number of years and nothing else from the Mega Man front that isn't some weird mobile game. I'm saddened by that. I recommend grabbing this one on sale.

A near ideal sequel showing Capcom actually does have the power to make good MM games, but deliberately choose not to for some reason.
This is the best spite-game I have ever played. 9/10, it was made with hate.

Great re-make to Mega Man. It has a MegaMan 2 feel with completely enhanced 3D graphics and great audio while keeping the 2D side-scrolling perspective. If you loved MegaMan 2 I think you will love this!

An excellent entry into the Mega Man series with levels that feel well thought out and ensuring that the power ups you get from bosses feel useful and flexible outside of boss weaknesses.
Get this game if you are new to the series or a long time fan.

Really fun and lively "old-school" platformer. I thought the art, music and designs of the robots were all great. I haven't played much mega-man before so it was quite a challenge compared to most modern platformers, so I'd recommend casual difficulty for those new to mega-man/platformers of this kind.

I had a lot of fun playing this but whoever made the Bubble Man stage is a real A hole. This isn't a super difficult game like some Mega Man's. It's worth playing for sure.
