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.
@Sindayl That is completely fair. Nintendo absolutely overcharges for their older releases. However, there are two important factors: 1) people are willing to pay full price for a 1st party Nintendo because it’s far more likely that they’ll get their money’s worth out of them, and 2) Nintendo games typically have a far longer lifespan compared to Xbox and PlayStation games, which are replaced by either sequels or enhanced versions after 1-3 years of relevancy.
Literally less than a year ago: “OMG ALL SWITCH 2 GAMES ARE GOING TO BE $80 START PREPPING YOUR DOOMSDAY BUNKERS!”
They retail for $70 on average, and a tennis game retails for that price after it’s predecessor also launched at what was at the time the average retail price of $60 after its incredibly barren predecessor launched slightly below the average retail price, instead retailing for $50, despite being worth like $20. This is how the community reacts: “OMG $70 for a tennis game with barely any single-player content is absurd. Nintendo is greedy and should follow in Sega’s footsteps. Now if you excuse me, Madden 27 is calling my name.”
@Magician An upgraded model with significantly improved battery life would also be appreciated. I’m still scared of taking this thing on the go. Darn thing dies so quickly
