What is Megaman 2 Optimum?
Quite simply, Megaman 2 Optimum is an upgraded version of the Megaman 2 ROM. It converts the ROM's mapper to MMC5, and its graphics format to CHR-ROM. That's it! 
Unlike the Upgrade Patch I did for Megaman 1, there are no other alterations to the ROM. This is just a simple mapper and CHR-ROM conversion. The PRG-ROM was not expanded, but the CHR-ROM was maxed out to the new mapper's 1MB limit. The ROM doesn't need to be expanded anyway, since in the conversion of the game to CHR-ROM, all of that PRG space that stored the game's graphics has been freed up. Also, another reason I didn't expand the ROM was so that the editors made for the game could be used. Although I have not tested any of the editors yet, that was my intent. So basically, there is plenty of free space in the ROM without expansion, and there is plenty of CHR-ROM space to work with. Unlike with Megaman 1, which took me three months to convert to CHR-ROM, this time it only took me one month. I started this project February 20th, and finished it March 20th. I set up this time span in advance. My target release date was to try to get this all done in a month, and I succeeded. Download Patch and readme included inside the zip file. This patch is meant for the English version, Megaman 2, not the Japanese version, Rockman 2. This ROM was tested to work on FCEUX 2.2.2. I have not tested it on any other emulators. If you happen to find any bugs, feel free to let me know. Thanks. ____________________ My YouTube Channel |

Thank you guys. As much as I would like to start my next project right away, I need to take a few weeks away from the computer, if not longer. Doing this project really caused me a lot of head pain and strain to my eyes. And then there's the real-life stuff (money). So I'm not even sure when I will be doing my next project. But I still have my Project List and I hope that I will be able to do some of them in the near future. Thanks for enjoying my work, and I wish you luck with yours. ____________________ My YouTube Channel |
