No &bass sucks, but being able to get 9 and 10 without spending money on the dlc is clutch

And what exactly is so bad about 8?

I'm just happy we're getting a physical version on day one. And it looks like it won't' be $30, like the physical version of Legacy 1.

Probably unpopular opinon, but I hope they consider doing a legacy collection of the gameboy games because they're pretty different overall compared to the NES versions.

Never liked the way Mega Man 7 & 8 felt and I already have 9 & 10 thru Xbox One's backwards compatibility. Will probably skip out on this one until a decent sale. Hoping they eventually release a Mega Man X Collection. The original Mega Man Legacy & Disney Afternoon Collections are fantastic though!

This is perfect for PS4.
In all seriousness, what's so bad about 8? I played it on PS1 and it seemed fine.

MM9 is great. MM10 I never played, but I figure it isn't too shabby. The other two are better left forgotten.
Weird Capcom ditched Digital Eclipse. They didn't use emulation, did they? They sort of recreated the games in their own engine, at least that's what I kind of understood. I imagine this new collection will be using regular-ass no-frills emulators.

4 games is weird when a) they could simply have added them in the original Legacy collection like they were supposed to, and b) there are still some Classic Mega Man games that didn't make it in.

Eh...well, at least Megaman 9 & 10 are good.
Too bad they're sharing space with the two worst games of the original series.
The lack of Megaman & Bass is also disheartening. Maybe it shows up in "all spin-off" collection with Megaman Soccer, Power Battles, etc.

Was Dr. Light voiced by Elmer Fudd in that dub?

You do realize the emulation in the Anniversary collections was beyond awful, right?

Guess an X Collection is next containing X1-5, X6 can burn
for all I care, and I don't think Capcom would want to bother making a PS2 emulator just for X8.
Both the PS1 and Saturn versions of Mega Man 8 perform and look identically the same, it's only that the Saturn release has extra content like Wood Man and Cut Man as extra robot masters
burn, burn to the ground, burn, burn, burn to the ground

And more enemies in the levels, and better music, some better effects.
Incredible.
I hit control+f "Switch" as soon as I opened the thread.
Never fails.
7 feels too methodical.
8 has long levels, with long sections and mid-bosses. It becomes extremely tedious by the end with all of the ridiculous things it wants you to do.

Just for the sake of curiosity, what makes it better for PS4 than the other available platforms?

Tell that to all the Sony supporters that insist every game comes to their console because of install base.

I love Mega Man, and I love 3 out of these 4 games (MM10, not so much) but I feel after having paid for both 9 and 10 at launch individually on Xbox 360, both of which are backwards compatible, and paid full price for the first Legacy Collection, paying $20 to play MM7 and MM8 on my Xbox One is too much. Also, I feel that these 4 games should have likely been included in the original Legacy Collection.
I will likely sit this one out until there's a sale. There's not enough here that's worthwhile to me to pay the full price.

I'm excited for getting 9 and 10 on more consoles, but also disappointed it's just those 4 games.
Did the 3DS version of the first do THAT bad that they decided to not bother with Nintendo versions of their collections anymore? I'm still getting this on Steam, but a portable version would've made me buy it twice.

This will be the first time that 9 & 10 will be available physically.
I wasn't going to plan on double dipping, but when you put it that way...
Fuck

That's not what I said. Try again.
As has been pointed out already, 9 and 10 are already on Xbox One, at the low, low price of FREE if you already bought them on 360.
So I can't justify paying $20 for just Mega Man 7 and 8, especially considering that I have the PS1 version of 8 on my Vita already. I'll probably wait on this until it's $5 or less.
They said at one point that they were working on getting their emulation tech working with more modern platforms, but maybe they're stuck using it with NES games.
Mega Man 10 is Mega Man X in a way.
Also explains why there may not be a 3DS version as they'd have to create an engine for it.
But yeah, I'm worried about the emulation here. We'll see.
X8 is a very good game and doesn't deserve to be mentioned alongside X7 like that.
I'm gonna counter this and say:
Everyone please buy so that we may see an X legacy collection.
You wouldn't be the only one. Barring "Rockman World 2" (MM2GB), the GB series is pretty legit.
Hell, I remember when Capcom announced that they were going to do a "MMGB Anniversary Collection" for GBA, many, many moons ago. A friend of mine on a Rockman BBS actually still has his receipt from that!
