Yeah and its not like you can just trial and error infinitely without having to play through the whole stage again

And unlike the rest of the series, there's no passwords. You have to start from the beginning every time so you have to get through the 6 Robot Masters before you can even try Yellow Devil.

For me the bigger issue is that the game is just kinda broken in a few places. Like the helicopter platform enemies that appear in Ice Man and Wily 1 just straight up do not work correctly, and you can get patterns where you just can never jump to the next platform, or you'll sometimes fall through them and it's not always clear why. You can use the Magnet Beam to bypass them but that's the same level of "you have to cheat to get past it" as people say about Yellow Devil.

Also Mega Man's movement isn't as tight in 1 as it is in 2-6, like it takes a little longer for him to start and stop moving in 1 compared to the others. If you're used to the later games and you try 1 for the first time, you'll end up accidentally walking into hazards occasionally because of this.
