@bleeflooflah Why would they apologize for doing what big corporations do: try to make as much money as possible? It’s not like they’re putting ads in their games. If they personally offended anyone by charging $80 for Mario Kart…that’s ridiculous. Video games are a privilege, not a right.
I’m fine with companies using AI to make things more convenient such as in this implementation (having an AI companion lend a hand to newcomers and explain how to play the game). I’m not fine with companies talking up AI and trying to position it as the friend we can always depend on. It’s a money and time saver. That’s all it is and it should always stay like that.
It seems like these were made for parents who are Nintendo fans themselves and want to introduce their kids to the brand. Other than for that audience, these have no worth
@Anti-Matter Good for you but I’d rather have a lazier way to play a game on certain hardware than no way at all (except a cloud version, that is just wrong)
I had the Deluxe one for 8 Deluxe and it felt…cramped. The pedals in particular were a pain to use, and it was just so much more uncomfortable than playing the game with a pro controller. These do not go well with Mario Kart, simply put.
This is cool, but I do wish they had another mode like the Classic, X, and Z/ZX Legacy Collections that doesn’t require online connectivity and is more high-score based.
@harrystein PlayStation still has a place, imo. It’s for those who want higher specs but don’t want a PC, plus they’ve got a bunch of big IPs exclusive to their consoles. Xbox, however, is definitely surprising to still see around
I know it sounds wild after the whole Legends 3 thing, BUT I do believe a Legends collection IS going to happen because 1) Every other series got one. Sure, they cheaped out with ZX and threw it in with what obviously was primarily envisioned as a Zero collection, as given by the fact that the side mode, Z Chaser, features the Zero logo as well as just an artwork of Zero rather than including ZX protagonists plus the fact that all the extra artwork was largely taken from the Zero Collection on DS and the Official Complete Works art book. No love for ZX shown outside of the inclusion of the games, artworks, and soundtracks. But still, even if ZX got the short straw, Star Force is still getting a collection (and it arguably has a lesser reputation than ZX) and they’re actually putting in effort despite the fact that it’s Star Force. 2) The Legends fanbase has been suffering for years, so putting out a collection would be a great way to keep them somewhat happy. 3). Legends is one of the more commonly referenced Mega Man series in Capcom games, so they clearly have respect for it 4) it would be a brilliant way to gauge interest in a new installment, even if that doesn’t turn out to be the same game that got shelved over a decade ago. I know this is basically just me rambling, but I just don’t see why they’d bother putting out collections for every Mega Man franchise except Legends. I mean, yeah, you’ve got stuff missing like the Classic Mega Man GB games and the Mega Man Xtreme games, but it would make more sense for those to get thrown onto digital storefronts for like 5 bucks a pop. Maybe a little more for Mega Man & Bass. Legends deserves a collection (I’d say they deserve remakes but we’d have to see how well they can keep the ball rolling after Mega Man Dual Override releases), and I wouldn’t be surprised if Capcom agrees.
@The_Nintendo_Expat Yeah, I can see how that can be confusing. I was mainly thinking in terms of what we don’t need instead of what we do need (nearly every time X9 is brought up the Elf Wars plot is thrown in as a shoe-in for a story even though it’s not relevant to the X series, it would make way more sense as a Zero game if they ever decide to tackle it).
Favorite games? Mega Man X, Mega Man 7, Mega Man 9, and Mega Man 11. In terms of spin-offs worth noting, a lot of people say Mega Man V on the GB is really good, but it being a GB game makes it hard for me to endure with the choppy frame rate.
Good to hear that this collection has a crap ton of effort put into it, which makes me hopeful that the inevitable (yes, it’s inevitable at this point) Legends collection will receive the treatment it deserves. But seriously, though, I am so sick of the “We don’t want this, we want Legends” nonsense everywhere, particularly on Facebook. Like, no wonder Capcom doesn’t like making Mega Man games anymore, the fanbase has gotten incredibly entitled and absurd with their wishes. We don’t need an Elf Wars game, for heaven’s sake! We don’t need Mega Man IX. We don’t need Powered Up 2 or MHX2. Those remakes just don’t look worthy of continuing compared to starting from scratch, especially in the soundtrack and plot departments. I am very glad Capcom is insistent on doing what Mega Man really needs to live instead of listening to the ridiculous demands of the fanbase.
Would it kill them, though? There’s only a few games in the expansion tier that I’m actively interested in; offering an option to buy them outright would be much appreciated
This is a scenario where it doesn’t really bother me. Recording tons of new lines each and every year for sports games that are fundamentally the same with slight differences is kind of ridiculous.
As unlikely as they will, I hope they finally realize that they need to just eat up the cost and refrain from increasing prices in order to avoid further backlash.
