Been playing the GB Mega Man games recently, and except for MM2GB (which was a joke) I find them hard as hell. This is coming from someone who's played a lot of NES Mega Man as a kid. The smaller screen makes it harder to dodge stuff and I feel you need to be way more precise with your platforming than you ever did in the NES games. This is coming off right after a NES MM marathon so I'm not going off vague childhood memories.

The gameplay on the Game Boy series feels slower, probably to compensate for the smaller screen. Mega Man 1 on the Game Boy is tough as shit. I just remember the levels just being really long. MM2 is the worst in the series in my opinion, it's too easy and the earrape music sucks ass. MM3 and 4 the balance gets a bit better. I haven't played enough of MM5 GB to have an informed opinion on it though.

I would say overall, they're alright as a handheld departure from the originals, but they just don't have the same quality as the NES games they're based on.

I said the the same thing, i only have MM1
the soundtrack is as hard as the gameplay

All of them run terribly on real hardware, it's not just you. It does get better with 3, 4, and 5.
