Sometimes you need to know what the system is capable of before you go and make your own project. That is essentially why I began the MM2 PTC project, not just because I enjoy MM2, but because I wanted to see if such a game was even possible on PTC in the first place. Designing a game based on what you imagine the system is capable of and actually implementing them to work as well as you'd imagine are two completely different things.

Also, the work to put together an original game that is of the scale of commercial games, like Megaman, is a lot more than simply programming it in, especially if you aren't going to use the default sprites, BGs, music, etc.
