Mega Man Star Force: Legacy Collection Has Been Rated For Switch

Wow, there are so many Mega Man Legacy Collections.
If only there was a Mega Man Legacy Collection Collection.

I will get both Switch & PS5 version.

Wonder if they might at some point do some kind of, "And here's just the other stuff I guess," Mega Man collection with things like the Legends games, Soccer, Powered Up, and Command Mission.

Now we just need a Mega Man Legends Collection and a type of "forgotten hits" collection.

Looks really nice. I did not even know, that these games existed. This also reminds me, that I still have to play the Battle Network series.

@Lizuka
This is were it gets interesting with what's next

Switch version on my radar.

@Jhena you and me both Not sure my cup of tea, but looks intriguing. I wonder how many ”Mega Man” games there are in total in the wild haha. I basically played Mega Man 1-3 plus Mega Man X hehe

Great news! I still have to get Mega Man Battle Network Collection, but I'll definitely add this one as a fan of the Blue Bomber!

I love Mega Man, and I've never heard of them either. Looks like they were all DS games, and I've never been a handheld gamer.

Every game in the series' Metacritic score = "stinky"

Still mad how they did Mega man legends 3 dirty. The game was finished. They were literally about to release it on 3DS then bam canceled!

Never played the star force games but as i understand it they're kinda a continuation/ spinoff of battle network. Much like Mega man ZX was continuing the Zero series after Zero 4.

I was curious myself, so I asked the internet. Here is a quote, "Therefore, while the core platformer series contains around 29 titles, the total number of games in the entire Mega Man franchise is significantly higher, with estimates ranging from approximately 53 to over 95 games depending on how titles are counted."

Wow, that is simply impressive.

@MontyCircus
The metacritic score is misleading, the Star Force games came out during the time of Mega Man fatigue where Capcom had just finished the Battle Network series then immediately went to Star Force. So reviews during that time were a bit unfair.

These are solid action RPGs and in my opinion the most underrated Mega Man games out there that the core fanbase never played.

@FX29
Which is better Battle Network or Starforce?

@Charlirnie depends on what you're looking for.
They are both familiar games to each other with shared mechanics (I mean, Starforce is the sequel)
That said, Starforce may be a tad more challenging due to limited movement whereas EXE uses a 3x6 grit split in half.
Starforce uses 3D during battles too, so it might be a bit more of a spectacle. It's also a bit more "tokusatsu hero" than the EXE games
They're both fun of course

@Truegamer79 It was the Legends 3 Demo that was essentially finished and was going to be used to gauge interest and get feedback. Still sings, man. MML3 was one of the main reasons I got a 3DS. That, and portable Street Fighter IV.

I can't wait to finally play these!

@Charlirnie
Battle Network has the better gameplay in my opinion, there's a lot more customization available and there's a reason why it's more popular of the two. The 3x6 grid movement allows more freedom and complexity in battle.

Star Force has a much different battle system where you can only move left to right and lock onto enemies to attack. Its a fun battle system but a clear downgrade. The series really shines is the charming characters and has a better story than Battle Network.

Overall both are great but Battle Network is the better series but Star Force is very underappreciated.

It's likely been said already but, Mega Man Legends Collection is what I want to see next.

@EarthboundBenjy maybe Capcom will do that in Asia. It already did a compilation (bundling separate releases in a larger box) of MM LC 1&2 and MMX LC 1&2 in Japan. I think that was the only was to get MMX LC2 on cart as well.
