You listed MM5 and DK as ports?! Tetris yes, but those two are unique titles! Actually, aside from recyclying bosses, the first 4 MM games for GB are original titles too. They do have unique Wily Fortress bosses too. Saying DK is a port is nutty. That game is pretty much completely it's own game. It's a sequal, or a SUPER EXPANSION, but calling it a port is like calling Animal Crossing a port of Clu Clu Land just because that game is in it.
Every single regular 2D Mega Man game has pretty much been the exact same, so that's not a huge stretch. And sure, there are what, a hundred or so new levels in DK? It might not be fair calling it a port, but it's close enough I suppose. Who cares?
Quote:I just don't see how you can dislike the GB. It was such a great system... it just makes no sense at all. Unless you mostly played them emulated or something... emulated GB games just don't work well at all...
I had a GB in the early 90's, but I didn't play much besides Tetris, LA, and Metroid 2 because none of the other games interested me very much. Even Nintendo's original Mario Land games were just pale shadows of their big brothers.
