Mega Man Anniversary & Mega Man X Collections

I unlocked Mega Man: The Power Battles the other day. It's basically a series of boss fights from earlier in the series. It's not without its charm, but so far, meh.

On another note, if this compliation is successful do you think we'll see a Mega Man X collection somewhere down the road? I only ever owned the first one but it's, like, one of my favorite games ever (fear the awesome might of Chill Penguin!). Yessiree bob, a MMX collection would be a bit of alright indeed.

<gets all nostalgic>

 

Heck, I didn't even play the games on any old system, and the controller scheme's messing with me.

On another note (brought up by the last guy) I would LOVE a MMX collection. Since I've never played those, either.

 

Ok, I was a MM3 junky back in the day. But that's the only one I ever played. I have the PS2 version, and apparently you need to beat each game before going to the next one? *i.s. must beat MM1 to play MM2). So I am at Dr. Wily's stage, and I got to a part where the jump is impossible to make (too high) to a bridge after which you have another way too high jump to a ladder. Anyone know what I am talking about? Anyone know what to do? Thanks.

 

Ok, nevermind - the magnet beam in Elecman's stage. Got it. Thanks anyways.

 

But that's the only one I ever played. I have the PS2 version, and apparently you need to beat each game before going to the next one?

Is this true?

 

I just found out today that this game existed..

How could i have missed this thread!?


Unfortunately, it's a civic holiday in Canada today, so i have to wait till tomorrow before i head out to find it...

Most of my Megaman playing was reserved for the Gameboy versions of the games (usually had all the characters but sometimes in slightly different orders)

 

There's actually an Anniversary Collection of the Gameboy titles coming out too for GBA (which will also have some of the NES titles on it as well, I think).

I don't think there will be any NES games on it. It is supposed to be a collection of all the GB/GBC Mega Man games. They were similar to the NES games though as most of the bosses were taken directly from them.

 

I've only tried playing the first two games, so far,
but man... If you need a testimony that games today
are easier then games of yesterday, that first
Megaman game is it..

I suppose it's probably because they hadn't perfected
the control/formula yet, but man..So far i've ALMOST
been able to beat Cutman.. Otherwise...Yikes...


"Megaman II" i'm rippin' thru..Once you get the Metal
Blades, that game is cake..

 

The arm cannons were quite popular back then, weren't they? Mega, Samus . . .

The first Orange Clay Man will always be a classic for me. My brothers and I fought the bugger for hours till victory . . . without the stop-start/elec shot trick.

Okay, yes. We used that trick. It was the only way! But there was one later Wily stage bubble boss it didn't work on.

 

I honestly want to get the MMX collection but there is no European release date announced

 

Oh geez, I can't beat that turkey on the PS2 version because they removed the pause glitch. I never beat him in the original Mega Man without that trick. Strangely enough, I beat him no problem when he reappeared in one of the later games.

 

You know I never cared much for the Mega man series yet I love the X ones

 

I'd think that'd be a safe assumption. Then again, you know what they say about assuming... It involves you, a mule, and a bag of coffee beans... Or something along those lines.

 

What Mega Man 3 pit jump? I once had a Vader of tip magazines. How'd I miss that?

Hey, they should make a Mega Woman! . . . Well, why not?

 

Evidently you can play as a girl in Mega Man ZX for the DS, which may be a first. (Not including The Misadventures Tron Bonne, and anything else I'm forgetting.)

 

These "3D" games are nothing to the old classics.

 

I just wish they'd put the MMX collection on the PSP or something... now that would be awesome... and yes, i'm full aware of the new MMX1 on PSP, but thats a revamped version, i want the old SNES/PS ones...
