Description

Restores the sound effect that is supposed to play when pressing Start at the title screen, which is present in the Japanese version but was removed from international versions, and the "Mega Man" logo now flashes when doing so, similarly to the Japanese "Rockman" logo.

Available for both US and European versions. Since 1.2, two alternate patches are included in the ZIP that will only restore the sound effect while keeping the "Mega Man" logo as-is.

Feel free to include this patch in your own ROM hacks as long as proper credit is given.

A great fix. Can someone help me with adding the slide and charge shot?

Adding those two features in the first Mega Man game is far beyond my current abilities. You might want to ask someone who's more skilled than me.
