Hack description

When the Japanese game Rockman World was localized for Western markets, the name Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge was chosen. The subtitle does not appear on the title screen, however, which just says Mega Man.

Curiously, though, the game was apparently originally going to use the Japanese subtitle, as graphics for a logo saying Mega Man World are present in the released ROM.

This hack simply displays that logo on the title screen. The author has also created one single tile to complete the final "D", which was missing in the original ROM.

Two patches are included, one for the US version of the game and one for the European version, as they have different title screens.
