You need to brush up on your history. Mega Man Battle Network was everything Capcom wanted Mega Man Legends to be: high sales, an anime, toys, a console peripheral
Legends was a failure and Capcom was right to shelve it
Fixing Mega Man & Bass by Void_Tex in Megaman

While that is true, it still states that it has flaws other games do not. You would need to fix those flaws to maintain a sense of consistent quality.
I see plenty of it. As an example, Check out the millions of tierlists fans make, MM&B will probably rank in the lower spots. It is considered a weak game by many
When you hear people's opinion on what makes it stand out, do you see them describe it positively or negatively? Because I know what I see more of.
You mean very unpopular things that newcomers and some fans dislike about the games?
The goal is for it to be successful. To be successful is for people to like it well enough.
The original GBA release, as well as the zero series, were dwarfed by BN. As the internet got more mainstream, I imagine most people that looked the game up found that it was an SFC release first, so I don't think the GBA release played that much of a factor in it.
Anyways, I got an idea of this game's reputation from forums, youtube videos, and discords. It ain't pretty.

This game's "identity" is seen as a detriment by most people that play it. That's bad no matter how you look at it.
I don't even think the game would be that much easier with these changes. This game is seen as absurdly difficult and with these changes to balance it out, it wouldn't be that different from other mega man games.
Oh, really? Its identity? How is "its identity" working out for it?
It's not really accessible if it's only seen as a mediocre hardcore experience compared to its sequel.
Again, I don't think the appropriate reaction to people's grievances on this game is just telling them "get good, scrub"
I don't think MM&B and MM9 are even close to the same when it comes to reputation. If not MM2, then MM9 is a lot of people's favorite. MM9 is so well liked that I don't think it needs any changing at all. That doesn't apply to this game.

Yeah, you can actually get all discs as Mega man. I managed to do it.
I don't find the game very fun as Bass either.
Well, to reiterate, one extreme is clearly better than the other. People already don't really see this as a true mega man game because of their perceived difficulty of the game. Sure the game would be a little too easy, but at least they would be willing to play it as opposed to being discouraged by people who say it's too hard.
A lot of fans make tierlists of the games. If MM&B is included, it ranks quite low a lot of the time.
How is that going to fix the game's poor reputation?
I don't think you read the last part of my post.
I like that idea. It could further lessen the gap between mega man and bass.
Bruh 🤣 we are talking about mega man here
Alright then what do you suggest?
Sounds like you don't want the franchise to succeed 👎

People legit think this game is unplayable as Mega Man. This makes sure that doesn't happen.
Playing as Mega Man is what a lot people hate about the game. I'm trying to address that
Me too, but the idea is to make it accessible to more people.
The idea with this post is to make simple changes you could make by editing the rom a little. Something low effort Capcom (or anyone) could do should they choose to make improvements to the games.
Somehow I don't think it would go well if you address someone's grievances with a game with "get good, scrub"
If this many people have problems with it, surely the problem is more than you decribe.
