    I literally just want to know two things
    1. Can you make it not look like garbage
    2. Why the frick is it not coming out in like October at the latest
    Plus, they're being stingy by not just doing Star Force at the same time and making that the "two different collections" instead of this arbitrary cutoff

        I don't like smooth mode in games, but I can stomach it in some cases. Example: while I"m not going to buy it, the way Sonic Origins looks doesn't really bother me. The Mega Man collections are not those cases. Mega Man Zero's lookin' good mode, which they use for OFFICIAL SCREENSHOTS is quite possibly the ugliest thing I've ever seen.

      The games need a remaster, not a fricking rom dump. I already have the roms.

      Being able to play them on my Switch is a justification enough for me
      >inb4 BRO YOU DONT HACK IT LMAO

      I literally have every good 8 and 16 bit game ever on my hacked switch, and they barely take up any space on my 1tb microsd. Pussy.

      >bro did u know roms exist?
      Wow, I did know that actually. Thanks anyway.

      You are a brainless meat machine desperate to throw away money for no reason. It disgusts me to observe such slave like behavior. This is why the israelites view us all as soulless hamsters in a skinner box.

      I had no idea a collection was happening. I've been buying the GBA carts instead and will probably stick with those, as the GBA as a device will most likely survive longer than the Switch does, thanks to not needing OS patching, sturdier and simpler hardware and running on AA batteries. Still, it will be nice that people who missed out on the series for one reason or another will be able to play it now.

      Reduced, maybe, but not gone completely… which they did for the PS1 ports, so it’s hard to justify it.

      Hilariously, the flickering line in the stage selection screen of MM3 is right there. Harmless, but very noticeable stuff. Seems like a weird deliberate decision to not improve on anything.

      It's free sheckles for zero effort.

        I have a few original units as well as both a frontlit and a backlit SP each. I just prefer the fact that the original is far more comfortable to use, and I am not a slave to a wall charger or rechargeable battery.

    Personally, yes, since the last time when I played MMBN was about 15 years ago, and my time with the game wasn't great enough, I got stuck and no gamefaqs walkthrough could help me, I had to drop the game just when I really got invested into the plot.
    All these years I wanted to give it another go, and now it seems like it's finally the time.

    The main problem with this announcement is that it looks like fricking shit.

    I don’t like the “strictly archiving” approach to Mega Man Legacy Collections.
    - Leaving the NES and SNES games with “nostalgic” slowdowns, sprite flickering and bugs was a crime.
    - Re releasing X5 and X6 with no QoL options to cut down their nonsenses.
    - DS games not adapted to single screen

    The MMBN one will be the worst of them, not including a single extra mode mixing content from all games, as all the others did, one way or another. It was the perfect opportunity for a standalone online VS mode, maybe with an original internet hub to explore outside of the game’s story, 4.5 style.

    They didn’t even bring the improved DS port of MMBN1 ffs

      I seem to remember flickering and slowdown both being reduced on the collection. Especially on Megaman 3. It is an emulator collection.

      All collections and ports nowadays are just cheap ways to milk money out younger audiences and nostalgiagays.

    So umm...i'm a moron and i'm confused by the different versions starting with 3. So it's mostly the same game but...there are two different continuities depending on which version?
    Which is the "best" continuity to pick or versions for the later games?
    Why can't they just make a definitive version of each game with all the chips, can you even trade between versions in the collection? Is it like Pokemon or are chips stuck in one version of the game? If it's not like Pokemon why are there even two versions.

    • 2 years ago
      Anonymous

      it actually is like pokemon, there's no different continuities, just different characters/chips in each. there's arguably no "best" one you can just pick the one with navis/chips you like. and yes you can trade, pretty sure you could already do this in 1. with two different versions, kids were encouraged to socialize and trade. of course this doesn't apply to late neckbeards who never had friends so they get mad at this.

      • 2 years ago

        I think the 2 version thing is acceptable in Pokemon because it's to encourage trading and you really aren't missing anything by just buying one. In Pokemon you can trade for anything that's not in your version. In Battle Network the Double Soul/Cross forms cannot be traded and the Giga Chips can't be traded, so you are essentially being asked to make a major choice on your playstyle preference before you've even picked up the game. I'll defend 2 versions with Pokemon but in BN it really is bullshit. I wish the collection had found a way to combine versions or let your switch versions mid-playthrough, but I guess that's too much to ask.

            See

            For BN3, pick Blue, it's the English version of the Japanese BLACK, and updated re release of Rockman.EXE 3. White is the vanilla EXE3, it lacks content such as the Punk boss fight.
            BN4 doesn't matter, game blows.
            BN5, pick Colonel, it came out in Japan after the ProtoMan version and it's story and longer ending connects to BN6.
            For BN6, pick whichever you prefer.

        Blue only has 1 additional boss fight, and as for the rest of the content White has different bosses here and there and chips. it's not a case of one being better than the other.

          People will tell you that you have to play Blue for the FolderBak chip but let me tell you right now that if you need to use the FolderBak chip you are not building your deck efficiently to start with.

        I'm going to have to politely disagree with you for BN5, if you pick Colonel you miss out on not one, not two, THREE of the cutest girls in the whole series. (One of whom is actually playable!!!)

    I’m kinda sad they didn’t include the Star Force/Shooting Star titles. The Zero Collection had the DS titles, so I was kinda hoping this would too, but I’m still happy for the Battle Network people out there for finally getting an update.

    I've got Mega Man Battle Network 5: Double Team on DS and honestly I probably only played it once or twice. Not a knock on the game, genuinely just didn't get into it for whatever reason back in the day. Was surprised it see how much it goes for now. Should I sell it before or after this collection comes out?
