MM&B is somewhere in the middle to upper middle. You should really just get the Anniversary Collection if you want to play the games.
The time attack times posted are achieved because they know how to use the weapons to get the quickest time. For example, in Enker's stage, instead of hoping across the blocks, just use the Rush Jet and it shaves off tons of time.
You have awaken Tasuki!!!!!!!! just playing of course. I must be tone deaf but I never noticed a difference in the sound effects. I never play the game on Navi and I hear the sfx are different.

Lol Not quite sure what that means but ok. . As for the sound effects yeah in some of the games the higher pitched effects are higher than their NES counterparts. Some examples are the screw gun things that pop up at the beginning of Firemans Stage in MM1. When they shot in the AC their blast noise is louder than every other sound effect and even the music. Also I think its in MM4 but I am not sure, after you beat the robot master and Megaman does his celebratory jump and the Robot masters power flows into him again the noise is a higher pitch then the original one. Truthfully it doesnt bug me to much since its far in between but when I do get to that point it does annoy me.
As for the button swap I have said it many times before it doesnt bother me that much I learn to deal with it. Who knows maybe if I were to play a copy on the NES I might be thrown off.

That's what I meant. We've had the button swap arguement a few times and you're always petioning that it's not that big of a deal, which considering the value of the game, I completely agree.

Ah ok lol. Pretty much its just a case of to each his own. I agree that while its not perfect and there are some flaws in the conversion or whatever you want to call it for the price the AC is worth it. Especially for someone like me who doesnt have a NES anymore. And as I and others said those cartridges at times do go for alot.

It baffles me that you guys can play the classic MM nes games on a GameCube controller. That alone is a deal breaker, the messed up SFX and music is a deal breaker, the buttons swap is a deal breaker. MM7's blurrier graphics and bunked up ending(apperantly) are a deal breaker.
The only 3 good things I can think of is the fact that 1-8 inlcuding those 2 MM Fighter games are all on one disc, the low price and the fact that Color/brightness looks wonderful and as it should be, when compared to Virtual Console Nes games which have ugly washed out dark colors and terrible brightness...But I have another mode on my TV where it's tweaked for NES VC games. Pumping up the color big time, along with the brightness makes a big improvement, yet still not as good as it should be.
Those "Only Good things" are more than worth putting up with minor inconveniences, IMO. In fact, there is nothing that can break that deal. I spent $20 on games I wouldn't otherwise have and loved every minute of, and made me fall in love with challenge, oppening up many doors both in video games and in life. I think that's worth putting up with a button swap and a few minor sound problems, don't you?
True. I still find it baffling, though. Probably because I'm willing to save money at the cost of quality. Again, to each their own. I just hope Capcom doesn't get sick of releasing Mega Man games (Like that'll happen ) before MM5-7 are out.
Playing through the first 8 MM games to find my true favorite order. I just finished MM1 and it was as average as I remembered. I'm gonna skip to MM3 now, since I've already beat MM2 before. (I'm playing this on the PS2 anniversary collection, by the way. )

@Waveboy: I understand where you are coming from on the whole anniversary collection thing. As you said to each their own. For me though it was the price that drew my attention. At the time I was so wanting to play the Megaman games again but I dont have an NES. You add up the price and you can be spending hundreds of dollars for a NES, SNES PS2 and all 8 games. Yeah there are a few differences but I would rather pay the twenty bucks for all 8 games rather than a few hundred. I dont know about you but I just dont have that kind of money.
And honestly I dont see what your problem is with the GC controller I think its a pretty well made controller. But once again to each their own.

^Well, the thing is, VC came out waaaaay after the Anniversary collection. Not to mention there are tons of extras on the AC that are not on the VC versions, such as remixed music, art, and Navi Mode which makes things easier for new comers. Hell, there's even a rapid shot button that lets you mow down your enemies with ease, and there are certain sections of the game that I wouldn't be able to, or at least wouldn't want to, beat without it. To me, it's actually better than owning the originals. Again, to each their own, but still, I can't see how it would be worth paying $60+ for 10 games I already own, especially considering the time it'll take for the remaining 6 games to get released.

I don't have a problem with the GCN controller, unless we're talking about it's stiff tiny d-pad. Other than that I think it's the greatest modern controller period. Beats out the 360 and PS3 controller if you ask me. The button lay out was unique, fresh and fun, the control stick was an awesome upgrade, the design and feel of the controller was fantastic, and the entire controller FELT next gen, unlike the PS2 Dualshock which was exactly the same as the PSOne Dualshock, which was a complete dissapointment.
heh, I still have my GCN. infact I'm actually staring at it right now since I keep it in my TV stand. i have all of the Nintendo systems aside from the N64.
Anyways, don't forget about the Wii's VC, MM1-MM4 would cost you $20(Although that's more expensive than the AC considering you're missing out on MM5-8 and the 2 power fighter games) and there wouldn't be any Button swap BS, using the GCN controller to play the games, or the sound/music problems...Just the horrible colors and darker image. And I'm actually thinking about just dropping the $50 and getting MM5...After all, it was one of my favorites growing up based on what I kind of remember, so it would be pretty awesome to have in my collection. MM7 is another buy as well....But I'll be skipping on MM6, and I'll most likely get it on the VC.
but again, what in gods name is taking Capcom so long to release MM5 on the VC!?
Personally I rarely use the D pad on the GC controller I use the analog stick. But yeah if I were to select a flaw it would be the D pad placement, its almost like they just threw it in there cause people were expecting a Nintendo controller to have a D pad.
And yeah I didnt mention the VC release of the MM games cause right now as it stands its only 1-4. Who knows if the others will come out. If you want all of them you are forced to either buy the AC or get 1-4 on the VC and 5-7 on the original cartridges, that is if you have the original systems to play them on. Also when I bought the AC I bought it when it first came out it wasnt like I bought it yesturday. So at the time I didnt have the VC option although if I did I would have bought the VC games instead provided that they had all the games in the series well the ones on NES and SNES anyways. Now that I have the AC I dont see the point in buying them again on VC I rather save my money for other games that I dont have than buy another copy of a game I do have.

The D-Pad on my 3Shitty controller is starting to crap out...can't play MM9 or MM10 like I used to. It actually used to be DECENT for the notoriously bad 360 D-pads....but too much Triggerheart Exelica bullet hell dodging started to kill it methinks.
...Oh yeah, Mega Man. Um....let's see...something controversial....
MMX3: Original soundtrack or remixed soundtrack? I like both, they each have strengths!
Wii: 6882-4334-4721-0727 --- PSN: OrangeGouf --- XBL: Orange Gouf
There's tons of people online who have done their own renditions of the Mega Man songs, from techno to metal. I've been wanting to do my own metalled versions of songs, but with actual drums, not a stupid drum machine. Just need to buy a studio...
I'm wondering if the PS2 version of the MM Anniversary Collection has the same SFX and Music problems as the GCN version, if anything I'd be mildy interested in picking up a copy just for the sake of having it. And the same goes for the MMX collection...Although I despise MMX5 and MMX6 especially. 1, 2 and 4 are the only ones worth playing!
I never played the PS version of AC so I dont know if the have the problems like the GC version. I do know that like the GC the endind for MM7 is different than the SNES version.
MMX3: Original soundtrack or remixed soundtrack? I like both, they each have strengths!
I've actually wanted to discuss this for some time now. In general, I like the remixed music better than the originals, but there are a few tunes where I like both versions. Allow me to give a few examples:
I feel the remixed stage select is vastly superior to the original, because the original just sounds like it has too much going on. Plus it sounds a bit too loud and extreme:
As opposed to the remixed version:
It sounds a lot less busy and is easier on the ears.
Tunnel Rhino's theme is another example of me liking the remixed version better. The original just sounds like it isn't finished to me, and it's slow and rather boring:
Then there's the remixed version, which is a bit faster and sounds cooler:
Both versions of the Crush Crawfish theme, however, are excellent:
Another song I love both versions of is Toxic Seahorse's theme, although I do like the remixed version a bit more. It's just a fantastic tune:
Another thing the 32-bit version did better was the Maverick Intros. The animated intros are much more entertaining than what you get on the SNES. Seriously, these are awesome:
