    Nice read, thanks for sharing! The NES will always be the epicenter of my lifelong love for gaming. I will always remember receiving Megaman 2 for my bday. We had other games, but as the youngest of three boys, it was the first game that was truly mine. And I will never forget the weird ass cover art it had lol.

        NES Mega Man 2 is one of the few NES games that was actually made easier for the American release, in that you could play the game recklessly and still win. The original (more difficult) difficulty was made into an optional “hard” mode, which forced players to play more defensively.
