Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection Reviews
Overlooking the flawed storytelling, fans will find six games stuffed with content and gameplay to enjoy.
Mega Man Zero/ZX Collection offers a refreshing set of games with an interconnected story and exciting gameplay segments. This collection is best suited for dedicated fans as it is deep-rooted in the Mega Man lore, but the gameplay itself should be enjoyable for anyone who loves platforming and difficult boss fights.
Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection provides a compelling package for those who never had the opportunity to check out a piece of lesser known Megaman history.
While I can't give Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection a broad recommendation above the Mega Man Legacy Collection 1 and 2, I can still put in a favorable mention. Zero 3, and the two ZX games – Advent especially – are the top picks in this compilation, all with optional adjustments to better reflect modern gaming sensibilities.
A fantastic collection of some of the best Megaman titles!
The Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection is the best and most complete collection offered by Mega Man; the collection of past golden and unexperienced titles, along with huge improvements, make the collection so valuable that we can't just pass it. Whether you're a fan of the Mega Man series or enjoying platformer titles in general, this is one of the must-have titles.

Aside from a few minor shortcomings, the Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection delivers a truly fun and nostalgic gaming experience.
The heroes in these games are fun to play as because they are powerful, and being powerful is awe-inspiring. It is cathartic to cut robots in half with a laser sword, as chunky pixel art blurts out all over the floor. It is a satisfying challenge that is just not available anywhere else.
Mega Man Zero / ZX Legacy Collection is the best compilation of the franchise that Capcom has ever released. Unlike the previous editions, which were divided in two, here we have a complete package with all games from the Zero and ZX series. Games that until then were only available on two out of line Nintendo portable consoles are now accessible with new ways to play and are sure to appeal to a wide range of players. From the novices, who can play them in a more casual and pleasant way, to the veterans of the series, who now have support for achievements / trophies and the possibility to show worldwide who is the best at Z Chaser.

These are six impressive titles (surely the best of the "Mega Man X" saga) at a very competitive price that, although in itself does not contribute much compared to its originals, more than the beginners mode that will allow us to play or replaying the title without adding much stress to the original experience ensures hours and hours of fun.

Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection is easily the best Legacy Collection to date while including the entire Zero and ZX series. While the Zero games may be a bit unfair due to the zoomed-in GBA view and unforgiving lives system, the new save-assist feature gives players the ability to play through these games at their own pace without feeling like they're given too much power. Z-Chaser is lastly a good bonus game, even if it is lacking in the level department.
Mega Man Zero / ZX Legacy Collection includes the 4 parts of Mega Man Zero from Game Boy Advance and the 2 parts of Mega Man ZX from Nintendo DS in a single compilation loaded with extras ranging from the art gallery, music player, or the new ZChaser time trial mode. 6 titles of the talented studio Inti creates for Capcom that will delight fans of the blue bomber, although this time from the hand of the charismatic Zero.

Compilations are hard to judge. No matter what the collection, some games will invariably be more enjoyable over others. That said, regardless of individual quality, Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection is a well-made compilation that will definitely appeal to long-time series fans. With its tight gameplay, gorgeous graphics, terrific music, and a number of customization options, there's a lot for players to enjoy. At the end of the day, it's hard to say whether or not the collection will appeal to newcomers. The steep difficulty and overly complicated storylines are definitely a hurdle to overcome. It's hard to recommend this collection over any of the previous Mega Man Legacy Collections, but for players craving more blue bomber, Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection is worth overcoming those hurdles. Now, bring on Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection, Capcom!
The Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection is a great collection. It contains six solid and enjoyable games with a lot of nice quality of life features that make this the definitive version of the game. The only real flaw is that the games have aged, and no smoothing filter can hide the jagged GBA pixels. If you can look past that, then this is a great addition to any Mega Man fan's collection, and if you missed these gems on the GBA or DS, then you owe it to yourself to give it a chance.
The Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection retains its difficulty and classic gameplay elements in what ends up being a great looking package that can still be accessible to newcomers.
Mega Man Zero / ZX Legacy Collection is another nice remaster created specifically for fans of the series and genre. The settings that make life easier for players make these projects more accessible, but still preserve the hardcore gameplay experience. If you have already finished Mega Man 11, but want more, then be sure to try this collection.

For those who played these games to death, you’ll still want to get this, provided you have no other means of revisiting them in their original GBA and DS forms. Long story short, I do hope this spells a resurgence for X’s BFF Zero and the future of the Mega Man series because this is one legacy worth preserving.
Those games are far from being gorgeous on a big screen and they make the original Mega Man look fair in comparison, but they are a neat take on the franchise’s core gameplay, with an emphasis on storytelling and light RPG mechanics. And let’s be honest, Zero is by far the single coolest son of a gun this franchise has ever created. A collection featuring six games starring him isn’t a bad deal at all.
Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection is an excellent little package that is sure to please fans both old and new.
