Its cause these are actual retro games made with passion and not quick cheap cash ins that have no soul and no real resemblance to the originals. I personally loved MM9 and will like MM10 if they stick to the roots with great level design, 8bit music, and power ups.
I do agree that there are plenty of games that I would proabably cry about if they just did rehashes. However the old school 2D era is different for me for some reason, maybe because no one makes good 2D games anymore ?! Either way the gameplay of megaman is classic and hard to change successfully. So I am happy to see more retro style. I also agree with Xxain that most gamers only want 'some' change with their games. Otherwise there is nothing to hold onto from game to game.
