It's damn near perfect. Holds up better than most NES games, which is saying something. The stages, the music, the bosses, the metal blade, I don't know what I could say that hasn't already been said about this one. A masterpiece.
Great game. Maybe it's aged but I don't care I love this game
Sometimes when I am sad, I think about Mega Man 2 and feel my life improve
The boobeam trap alone is enough to keep Mega Man 2 from a perfect score, it's also a bit disappointing how the robot masters in this one just instantly disintegrate if you touch them with their weakness. Metal Blades are genuinely overpowered in a way that detracts from things. It's the easiest, breeziest Mega Man, and if I'm looking to throw one on just for a few hours of quick messing around, it's gonna be this one. The visuals of the stages and the soundtrack are just so compelling that people are willing to overlook the flaws it has.
It's honestly kind of amazing how this game even exists. The first game wasn't successful, so this was made during the developers' free time while they worked on other projects, it only had 3-4 months of development time, and still somehow managed to be better than Mega Man 1 in every way, be considered the best Mega Man game on the NES, and is arguably the best game on the console. It's one of those game design miracle stories that are really crazy to think about.
As for the game itself, it's just as surprising. Basically everything has been improved, to the point where the game is actually fun to play now. Like even separated from the original game, Mega Man 2 is just really fun to play. The core gameplay is solid, the weapons are fun to play with, it looks really good, it performs flawlessly for NES standards, and the music SLAPS. Easily the best part of the game is the soundtrack; I listen to it all the time.
Give this one a shot. I think it's one of the few NES games that's actually worth your time nowadays, and it's easily my personal favorite.

Shocked at how well it holds up, and the soundtrack truly goes off. A classic for a reason.
easily the most fun game in the series. can be trivialized with the metal blades, but it's just as fun regardless of the stage order. play it on difficult mode
i love this game bro
most overrated one, but that doesnt mean its bad at all
Holds up pretty well. This feels like the first real game in the franchise. It improves the controls, colors, and variety from the first while removing the (imo) arbitrary scoring system.
The new robot masters are cool and powers are all fun to use. Metal Man is dope but holy shit his ability really trivializes the whole game. In general levels are shorter, (way) easier, and ultimately less complex (and less bullshit) for better or worse. Also whoever thought of the Boobeam Trap should be locked in a basement. Legendary OST once again, especially Flash Man's stage and the normal boss theme which may be my favorite of the series.

Mega Man deleted the concept of a smooth difficulty curve from his memory banks so he could fit more catchy tunes into his robot brain.
That being said about Mega Man 1, I do prefer Mega Man 2.
Overrated and everyone knows it
slight upgrade. this is where megaman starts
My first Mega Man game so it will always be special to me. Besides that, one of the best of the Classic Mega Man series if not the best.
One of my favorite games of all time. Although it may not be my favorite Mega Man game, the nostalgia I feel for the game, and the fact it was one of the first games I ever played, makes it truly worthy to be one of my favorites. 6 Trons
Fuck this game. Horrible Wily stages and stupid e-tank mechanic.
The only Mega Man I was able to play to the end, and it was well worth it. This game is well worth a playthrough, it doesn't take long, and keeps you trying with it's challenging, but fair platforming. Of course this game has a it's clunkiness, but I can see why this one is regarded as the best one of the NES entries.
Not a bad game, but one of the most overrated NES games in my opinion. There's a lot of cheap level design that bugs me. Quick Man's stage and the boss in Wily's stage that requires a full tank of crash bombs, for example. The soundtrack is possibly the best on the whole console, though.
Another game I absolutely love. My record completion time is 37 minutes (glitchless) I love to speedrun this game!
its good but it aint the best
One of the best in the series.
babys first megan man
I’ve played this so much so many times it’s so fun and great. Hold up perfectly
Fuck this game.
The person who created the Boo Beam Trap is probably a war criminal
Metalman is not a dentist
Metal Blades for life.
badly designed but in a way that's still memorable. i dunno i don't like this one but i get why its the franchise favorite
