Still inprogress, but it looks and plays amazingly. 8-bit renditions of the music is good, not great. Intro stages and other "fat" cut out of the game like MM7 8-bit, but the shop is still there.

Now you can play every classic MM in 8-bit (if you so desire) =p

note: these are vids of earlier builds of the game

So MM7 has already been in 8-bit? Need now. Also, they need to do Mega Man & Bass, because that's technically part of the classic series.

It was done about a year and a half ago, and I'm sure we had a couple threads on it.

I'm not a fan of these becuase of the lack of full screen and direct controller support

Aren't you the one who wanted a downgraded Ocarina of Time game?

I don't think so, but if I did, it would be because I prefer the top down gameplay of earlier zeldas to this third person view stuff that the newer games associate themselves with.

these megaman games are just big steps backwards graphically and musically, and in the case of this one, they're actually cutting content out.

It's just the intro level that's cut out, and I don't really mind. Of course I find MM8 as great as it is (squeaky voice acting for Megaman aside), but after beating it enough times, it'd be fun to play through a different rendition of it to at least see what it'd look/play like. I don't have any "8-bit or fuck this" nostalgic attachment to the visuals or anything, I just like it when fans do stuff like this, whether it's remade up or down.

This supports fullscreen and has a 4x (1024x768) mode. Just use Joy2Key. Bam.

Hm.. it says an error, they must've taken the latest beta version off the site.

But I've uploaded my copy to mediafire: http://www.mediafire.com/?xrgymwi5eyd

I'm not a big fan on MM8, but I'll check this out. I loved the 8-bit MM7. Thanks man.
