I played through Mega Man World for the Gameboy for the first in probably twenty nine years? I remember begging my parents for a cheap copy that Super K-Mart had on clearance circa 96-97, then proceeding to stay up incredibly late trying to finish it.
To be clear, I was a Mega Man X boy and the only classic era game I actually played at this point in time was Mega Man 2 on the NES about six years prior.
