Mega Man Legacy Collection for Xbox one/PS4 Mega Man 1-6

[Mel]

There is a new Mega Man collection being released for Xbox one/PS4/3DS this year called Mega Man Legacy Collection which includes Mega Man 1 to 6. It seem like this collection is going to only be digital download https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=27&v=DTrTBqQwk-8

Boo digital only.  This shit could really benefit from the DuckTales Remastered treatment imo

[shenske]

We can hold out hope that it gets a physical release on PS4 in Europe or Japan 

I'm import ready if an announcement come ...

[Mel]

I am hoping that Capcom decides to release a Physical disc version for North American but, I am hoping that they later on release a Mega Man X series collection

[OhhNoYouNintenDidnt]

Or how about they put any kind of effort into this "collection" to even make it ON PAR with the god damned GameCube COLLECTION'S that came out over a decade ago!!

The first one had Megaman 1-8......plus 2 previously unreleased outside of Japan games.

So cant really get excited about a "collection" I already have a better version of from 10 years ago...........what are they going to do? improve the graphics?  

And no physical release? no Wii U port.........GTFO Crapcom...........completely send MegaMan down the river and THIS nerfed piece of crap is your peace offering to fans after all these years of neglect?

Complete half assed joke Im afraid.

this reminds me of Mario All Stars that came out for the Wii. its just a straight port with few little extras

This is exactly what I though when I read about this.

Why the fuck release inferior version?

Does not compute!

Well maybe this time they won't switch the A and B buttons

What extras? That port completely pissed me off. It was a straight port with no features, no new menus ... nothing. They were so lazy they didn't even stretch the resolution to fit a 4:3 ratio. It is just a standard 1:1 ratio. Almost every emulator simulates the stretch but for some reason Nintendo decided not to include that in their coding.

So this is an interesting step toward something that few have done. Typically you don't see NES games leave the nintendo space as companies would need to emulate them and that doesn't tend to go over well with nintendo since they sell emulated versions. So this is actually people porting the games from the ground up onto new hardware, most importantly X86 hardware. In doing so they will have an engine where they could easily port future games or create new ones. You may say that the NES games have gotten plenty of releases on phones, the anniversary collection or on the playstation... but in each case these were rebuilding the games instead of just running the roms. The playstation games are what the anniversary collection is based off of and they are not near perfect ports with the music breaks on the NES titles. Mega Man 7 had the ending removed in that collection too I believe. The PS2/GC/Xbox collections were actually pretty bad.

The closest thing that this would fall into are the Retro engine version of Sonic games that have been released on IOS, Android, and PC where an engine was made and the games were ported to the engine. Sadly it doesn't sound like they are approaching reasons why those were neat by providing options like true widescreen support.

I hope this gets Mega Man 9 and 10 to steam as they need to exist on a download service that might exist in 10 years.

The Mega Man NES games are also already on the 3DS, I have MM2 on Virtual Console.

I don't see anything special here.  Reasons why I most likely wont get it.

No physical release.
Missing Mega Man 7-10 and Mega Man & Bass.
I already own the PS2 collection.
Remix games are stupid. So why would I care about Mega Man levels redone in this fashion.
Should have included some of the spin off games like Mega Man Soccer or That weird Famicom Mario party style game.
Could have included the Game Boy Games, and Game Gear Game
Maybe if they did something like the Sega Genesis remake of 1-3, but also included 4-6.

So far this seems like a lame port.

This. Also I already have all of the games on virtual console for 3DS. Why would I want the same thing downloaded again? If it had even just 7-10 on it I would get it just to have those on 3DS but as of right now I don't think so. Lets hope this sells well enough for capcom to see that Mega Man still has some merit though for an 11 main series game...

I hate to be a hater, but Rx_79 said it best.

[shenske]

I agree it's a lame port but if they make a physical copy I'll still end up buying it.
