I think that it's the same everywhere as I think that a lot of parents aren't really interested in video games (but surely more adults are interested nowadays !!) and are just buying them for their children.

Awesome ? That was not the term I wanted to use but maybe you are right ! But then I'm not a big fan of this goofy style from the 80's :D

I always thought the Mega Man 2 art was okay. Granted the pistol was a mistake and Dr. Light appears to be a villain, but at least they got the colors mostly right!
