Hello RetroRalph. I´m a big fan of Megaman , and theres is a Megaman game for Megadrive called Megaman: The Willy Wars. And this game has a Savegame Feature Ingame, but, it isn´t working in Retrocopy.
There is an IPS patch that can you apply for the European version of the game that enables you to save your game normally with SRAM and you no longer require a special save state to access Wily Tower. The original game used Serial EEPROM which only few emulators support. This makes it use the much more common battery backed SRAM method.

And with this IPS patch, you can use the Savegame Feature Ingame in emulators like Gens ,but in Retrocopy isn´t working with or without this patch, there´s no difference.
And without the Savegame Feature Ingame, you can´t access Willy Tower, so , please, Fix this when you have time
Thanks!!!
