Hey Guest. Check out your NeoGAF Wrapped 2025 results here!
Mega Man Legacy Collection 2 is coming to PS4, Xbox One, and PC this August!
- Thread starter Shard
- Start date
I bought the first collection and really regretted it.
I had never played any mega-man, but people talked so fondly about them.. Nostalgia goggles I say. The games have aged very badly, IMO. Didn't see any redeeming qualities to them except for the fact that they are an important piece of videogame history. But playing them today was honestly jarring.

Interesting. I'll be skeptical then.

Very cool, glad more people will be able to play the excellent Mega Man 9.

Good!
I don't know why people praise them when MMLC and DAC are both problematic, and a terrible example of emulating old games.
I think I'll be there again for the PC version. However, I do wonder if the lack of a switch version might be related to the mediocre sales of the 3ds version (even if that version was a mess performance wise) or the lack of faith on Capcom's part on the machine, heck I wouldn't be surprised if Capcom is planning on a rushed port after the MH hype for the machine
Thats what it was GBA. It was a fun game but capcom barely acknowledges it

Do we have confirmation that it's them doing this? I don't see their logo in the trailer or anywhere else.

Definitely picking this up.
I already played MM7 after the first collection, but I never finished 8 and never played 9 or 10.

Yeah, a complication of 5-8 is a hard sell given their reputation. 5 is a fine game.... it's the other 3 that are less disirable. Maybe throw in Command Mission and we might have something.
It's not bad it just kinda sucks. They made amazing packages for MMLC and DAC and looking back of the trailer you can kinda see that the trimmings around this one might not be as high quality as it was in those two...

To be honest, that's more like a sigh of relief. Their previous 2 titles for Capcom still have issues so I'm hoping Capcom has nabbed a developer that can deliver this with fewer bugs.
I'm gutted at the lack of MM & Bass too, though the SomecallmeJohnny review made it look nightmarishly difficult

Might have cared if it was on one of the portable systems (still wish 9/10 came out on Vita), but I already own half of the collection on PS3 and $20 for 7/8 just isn't worth the cost of admission.
Of course it wasn't serious, that was pretty obvious.
That is excellent news. Unless of course they somehow found a worse developer (like DotEmu).
Super dificult but rewarding

Glad to see these making the rounds. My son has been inquiring about MM7, so the timing here is good.

I feel like it's pretty manageable as Bass, but definitely a challenge with MegaMan. It's a fun game that just happens to reuse a lot of assets from 8. Makes me want to research that game's history a little more; why they chose SNES, why it's not numbered, etc.

Mega Man 9 & 10 getting a physical release with all of the DLC included. Take my money Capcom.
Still no Switch/3DS release for this or the Disney Afternoon Collection is a bummer.

That's interesting. Given the quality of the recent "Collections" I'm still extremely skeptical

See twitter link above. DE is not making this.

Between no Megaman Soccer and no Megaman and Bass 4 games seems absurdly low.
And what about the two Power Fighters games.

The only good thing to come from X6 was that one guy who did...
- X no upgrades
- All Reploids
- Nightmare Difficulty
- No damage
- Buster Only
run. It really shows how BAD the game is. Then there's X7 and X8...yeah...

Saying this sincerely, but be careful about that second paragraph. Junior bans are permanent.
Ahhh, I see. I haven't looked at the trailer yet but I see where you're coming from.

Still waiting for a Mega Man X Legacy Collection.

True, they could've taken the time to add a few of the non-series games to pad out the collection a bit. Soccer seems perfect, given they have a SNES emulator running here.
One thing I'm excited on with this is 9 and 10 getting better image quality; they both look a bit dim on Wii due to 480p, while on PS3 and 360 I seem to remember them having a blur filter to them. Would especially be great if we got scanline options and such.
Yeah it's a fascinatingly odd little release, strange how Super Fami kept getting notable games well into the late 90s. Amusingly, apparently it was intended as an entry to the series for younger players, somewhat baffling given its difficulty!

I hope the initial release of this is good because I remember reading about sound problems or something that wasn't patched for a while.

Actually, that is a good question. Wonder if Capcom would confirm which was ported.
