Agreed. Love 4. I never get why people rag on its issues whereas both 2 and 3 have real issues themselves. 4 is big, Cossack's castle is unique, its soundtrack has its own identity and is more layered than the other NES titles, it gives you options with a great variety of good weapons (people complain about the Mega Buster but 5 and 6 literally have OP busters but not great RM weapons unlike 4, especially 5). It could do with slightly tougher Robot Masters and platforming, but in the same vein the others lack a lot of stuff as well.

I think people like to rag on the buster because 4 is literally the first game where they invented the charge and all these 2/3 purists are just butthurt in the same way that Resident Evil purists were so against the nixing of Camera Angles in the remakes.

Toad Man, dum as he is, still had an amazing level and a wonderful track. I can't hate his boss fight for the life of me. And they redeemed him for me when they made him extra tough in Battle Network. And yes I love Cossack's domain and how distinct it is. In the future games, they just went with the 2-fort format because 4 did it.
