Beyond this though the game definatly has issues in my book. I just don't like the removal of the slide and powershot. This is just a personal preference but I felt it made the game loose a lot of depth. I won't go down the road of my feelings on DLC as it would be beating a dead horse. If you want to have an 8-bit like experience, then go for it. Just know that the game will cost you $17, not $10. From the standpoint of trying to be a love letter to Mega Man 2, the game succeedes.

I haven't really taken advantage of the other items except stocking up on E-tanks before I tackled each boss. The regular shot does do a lot of damage, and you really appreciate the music more w/o the constant charging sound. I don't really care too much about the achievement or time attack, just want to keep at it to see the ending.
