Digital Eclipse did a great job with all the details in Mega Man Legacy Collection, presenting the original games in their best possible light, while tossing in a handful of extra features and challenges on top to sweeten the deal. The rewind feature is a welcome inclusion that helps to mitigate the difficulty of some of the games, and the overall quality of the series difficult to dispute. We would highly recommend you pick this one up, all the included extra features coupled with the ability to play these games both at home and on the go make it a no-brainer.

In the absence of the six NES Mega Man games from the Nintendo Classics lineup, Mega Man: Legacy Collection is a must-own for Nintendo Switch / NS2. For $15 US, you're getting one of the greatest games of all time in Mega Man 2, its nearly-as-good sequels Mega Man 3 and Mega Man 4, the also-quite-good Mega Man 5 and Mega Man 6, and the tough but good original game. It's a great deal!

This collection is packed with quality-of-life features that make these challenging run-and-gun platformers more accessible to modern audiences, such as save states and an instant rewind button. For veteran players, there are extra challenges and an art museum.

If you're completely unfamiliar with Mega Man, this is a great place to start. Highly recommended!
