Didn't it... look very much like Megaman 8, though. Also it was much harder than the average Megaman game and never received an official translation until a shitty GBA port which made the viewport of the screen small, which made the game even harder.

It was standard in the industry to continue making games for ailing systems for people who might not have moved to the newer ones yet. MM&B uses assets from 8, the game was made after.

Burner Man is either unreasonably difficult or effortless depending on your grasp of his weapon weakness, but his arena being extra wide with his range of movement means you can lose track and things go awry very easily.

No, actually. They really do have the same amount of frames. For Mega Man, at least.
Bass is different. He didn't have any animations at all that would work for being a playable character, plus they were all too large. He was redone from scratch.

It says a lot that most sprite rips simply combine the two games into one mega sheet, I think.
But here's a 8/8Proto/&B combined sheet vs a &B GBA sheet. It's all the same frame counts, though a sprite here or there may have slight differences.
That said, Rock does have less overall frames in &B, when you take into account he has more unique actions available in 8. Swimming, swinging, kicking, etc.

This is easily one of the worst Megaman games, people only think its cool because it was Japan only until the GBA rerelease. Genuinely garbage level design and completely forgettable stage themes and music. The only game in the franchise worse than it is the Wonderswan version.

that doesn't mean is the same for snes version.
just take as an example Samurai Showdown snes and megadrive,megadrive version has more frames and higher res sprites while the snes is mehh,same can be said of comparing R&F versus megaman 8,R&F doesn't even get close in look to 8 (the gba had more power so it could handle more frames along a similar resolution to snes and ps1)
