Since you brought them up I went quick and remade the pipes into a style that'd work for MM8BDM, with all four sides rendered.

I'd consider opening up the level's outer edges to show the sky a good idea, alongside maybe adjusting the texture alignment so there's more consistency between curve transitions (mostly in how the shadows/highlights and pipes are aligned between floor-to-wall transistions)

(click to show/hide)

You could also make the backgrounds in the pipe textures transparent and put skybox textures behind them, it'd work more than the sudden background color transitions in the textures IMO.

Yeah I wouldn't expect a "Wonderswan Reborn" project to occur anytime soon.

Well, three of the nine DOS bots got renamed (though mostly because they shared names with official canon characters, not because their names were "too Japanese")

I would love to see Rockman & Forte: Challenger from the Future get the DOS Reborn treatment someday with boss and stage designs that would be closer in line to official Mega Man games, along with new music, weapons, and more English-sounding names for the RM's that aren't Komuso, Clock or Compass (mostly Grill and Bullet for Dangan and Konro, while I'm divided on what name to give AirCon).

Also I would be interested in seeing a new recreational map that's well made with good music (I had Windmill Isle Day from Sonic Unleashed on the mind) and contains a lot of things to do; with a pool that's made without Doom water (Like, a solid surface somewhere below the water's surface so you can still have it look like you're swimming, but it wouldn't be Doom water and you can still see the shallow and deep ends if you look under water).

Personally, the non-PU MM1 maps (in most cases) and a few of the MM2 maps all suffer from "monotony" in some way, which was why I suggested a while back that the stages could have some life brought into the tiles by making use of recolored MMI/MMII and MMWW textures so the map's texturing could look as detailed as all the other NES games starting from 3.

Seconded. Basically the idea (even if you don't use MMII tiles) would be to give the stage a more open feel; kinda like the original MM2 stage. (since even before you reach the "tower" part in the original stages, the non-solid surfaces weren't solid pipe-filled backgrounds.

Rockman 6 Skype Knightman stuff.

Not exactly Mega Man related, but here's the yellow spring flower from the Bonk series.

If anything, Crashman IMO should have more an aesthetic overhaul more than a layout change, since every surface in the map aside form the ceiling is nothing but pipes, and the textures could use some work as well.
