Description:
A heavy weapon hack for the NTSC version of Mega Man II.
This hack includes the following changes to the weapons:
- Boss’ bar fills faster
- Mega Man’s energy fills faster (either by energy capsule and E-Tank)
- You start out with 1 free E-Tank in your inventory.
- Floor friction increased. Mega Man no longer slips and stops immediately after you release the D-Pad. Mimics the response from other Mega Man titles like 4 or 5.
- Items 1, 2 & 3 are infinite. This was done to avoid going back and forth some screens just to fill up the gauge to get over a certain portion of a stage.
- Weapon usage reduced. Every weapon shoot will only take 1 ammo consumption.
- Leaf Shield modified: You can now move with the Leaf Shield on and shoot it with Button B at any of the four main directions. (Bug fix from previous versions has been fixes as of v1.2)
- Time Stopper modified: The amount of time the weapons is used is reduced to 4 seconds per use, instead of depleting your ammo in only one button press. As of version 1.1, whenever you activate the Time Stopper, Mega Man is invincible to any enemy damage (He flickers)
- Crash Bomber modified: The detonation is now done remotely, by pressing the B button. This helps a lot in a particular stage in Wily’s Fortress.
- Atomic Fire modified: The charge time has been reduced, it now charges twice as fast.

God Mode doesn't even begin to describe this.
Reviewed By: Sonic10974 on 01 Jan 2016Since the weapons Mega Man get after defeating Robot Masters are much better, this completely breaks the game. Here are the differences.
Metal Blades got a buff and are even more insanely powerful.
Air Shooter consumes less ammo.
Bubble Lead is unchanged. Ehhh…
Quick Boomerang got a buff like Metal Blades.
Crash Bomber consumes less ammo, and blows up on a second button press.
Time Stopper doesn’t get consumed in one go. Similar to the Flash Stopper in Mega Man 4, it gets used a little bit, and then depletes ammo. So Quick Man can be taken down much quicker (heh).
Atomic Fire charges faster. Ehhh…
The Leaf Shield doesn’t leave (heh) when you move. As a result, this makes the shield just as broken as the Metal Blades. It’s awesome
The items have infinite ammo. Nice.
So by the time you get to Wily Fortress, you are so pimped out in awesome gadgets, the fortress is a walk in the park. This is very awesome and I highly recommend it to anyone wanting a fun time.
