Mega Man Legacy Collection Reviews
The Legacy Collection masterfully succeeds at preserving the original state of the classics. While it adds new content to the fray, it serves only to enrich the already-existing experience that fans have come to know and love. New challenges and the ability to marvel at designs and audio collections make the collection all the more worthwhile. Enjoy this healthy slice of gaming history.
Mega Man Legacy Collection combines great emulation, remixes, and historic context into a superb compilation.
By far the best and most impressive Mega Man compilation ever assembled, what Legacy Collection sacrifices in reach it more than makes up for with refinement. It presents six games almost (though not quite) flawlessly, while providing enough display options to satisfy the obsessive and casual fan alike. Add to six beautifully preserved classics a massive database and dozens of addictive custom challenges and you have an excellent package that treats the classics with the respect they deserve — something that's traditionally been absent in the U.S. market. A must-have for any Mega Man fan.
Mega Man Legacy Collection is an easy buy for fans of Capcom's blue bomber, featuring a faithful recreation of the 6 mainline games and some truly clever challenges.
The exclusion of "Mega Man 9" and "10" is really the only mark I can come up with when observing this package. It has all the features that a re-release should have, plus some extra, and it all comes with an asking price that makes the purchase seem like a no-brainer. The "Mega Man Legacy Collection" is a piece of gaming history that adds the trappings of modern gaming.
Despite a few technical shortcomings, Mega Man Legacy Collection is a love letter to one of the best franchises in retro gaming history.
This compilation boasts six classic games, preserved in as-close-to-original form as possible, at a great price. If you never played Mega Man before, this is where to start. If you have, relive the greatness.
Mega Man Legacy Collection is a great package with a lot of content and stuff to do - for newcomers it's worth acknowledging that each game is very challenging, and could be too much for someone who isn't used to the steep learningcurve. With that in mind the wealth of extras, the challenge mode and the sheer scope of six games nevertheless make Mega Man Legacy Collection a great option for anyone who's looking for an old-school treat.
Some may cry foul at the lack of more recent Mega Man titles, but Mega Man Legacy Collection marks the gold standard for retro re-releases. Purists, your savior has arrived.
Digital Eclipse did a great job with all the details in Mega Man Legacy Collection, presenting the original games in their best possible light, while tossing in a handful of extra features and challenges on top to sweeten the deal.
Some will argue that if you're going to buy one video game collection this year, it should be Rare Replay based upon sheer value.
Mega Man Legacy Collection is just as fulfilling on 3DS as it is on consoles and PC.
If you're looking for quick, simple, and challenging fun, then this collection may be the perfect game for you to download from the marketplace. Loaded with six Mega Man games from the last century and even includes a good number of challenging and timed remixes.
Mega Man Legacy Collection is a fantastic compilation, faithfully emulating the difficult NES classics while adding a staggering amount of extra content and gameplay.
With extra challenges, a rewind feature and some of the best emulation of the Nintendo Entertainment System I've seen. This is a must-have collection for sure.
While the two Legacy Collections compliment each other like crackers and cheese, Mega Man Legacy Collection is easily the more streamlined. It feels like the more complete package due to all six games being originally released on the same console.
After booting the game up I was inspired to beat all six games again and work on the challenges, so the Mega Man Legacy Collection did its job.
Megaman Legacy Collection sets out what it aims to do–provide longtime fans, and a new generation of gamers, with the opportunity to play through some of the most iconic Megaman games ever made.
Mega Man Legacy Collection 1 and 2 contain a great set of games. The Switch version is the definitive version of the first Legacy Collection with Legacy Collection 2 following along in its shadow. Rewind is a great feature, while armor mode is lacking any sparkle. If you're going to pick up this collection, digitally is definitely the better offer.
The games themselves are accurate representations of the original NES ones. The visuals are sharper, but nothing has changed. As I mentioned the slowdown is still there. The controls are spot on, but I still have to adjust to the jump and fire buttons being backward like they were in the NES days. There is a button configuration for those that simply cannot stand it though.
