Introducing “Mega Man 7 Refit,” a ROM hack which makes Mega Man 7 a little more like those old NES classics in a few minor, but significant ways:
Shorter charge times mean you can fire more Charged Shots more often! Teach those robots a lesson!

Refreshed graphics, such as fonts which harken back to those old NES classics! It’s so old… it’s new!
