Yeah, he looks dumb as he walks, and in addition he walks SLOW. You notice it? Play 7 or 8 then 1-6 and it's very obvious... as is the size thing. MM is a small sprite in the classic games! 7 looks like it took a lot of inspiration from the Game Boy games in some aspects -- 4 bosses at a time instead of 8, the machine where you can buy items with money you collect, the Mega Man that is larger in proportion to the screen... It's not worse, it's just different. And it changed, as I said -- he's much smaller (but walks the same -- but it's not as noticable on a smaller sprite. The speed is though...) in 8.
I pronounce the name "Bass" Bass because... well, I do. Though I agree that I wouldn't take anything from the way anyone said anything in MM8 to be canon. :)
Oh, does Roll show up in the Famicom versions of 1-6? I know the US intro to 4 mentioned her name and nothing more, but I thought that I'd heard that she was in the Japanese ones more... but I don't know... But Bass is only in 8 and MM&B, right?
