Mega Man Legacy Collection 1 + 2 Legacy Edition - Nintendo Switch

I wish I grew up with the Mega Man series because these classic games are so much fun to play! My first exposure to playing Mega Man games was several years later and when I bought Mega Man 2 on Wii and later on Mega Man 7 and Mega Man X on Wii U. I enjoyed the games so much that I wanted to play more of them! When it was announced that the Mega Man Legacy 1+2 Collections were coming to the Nintendo Switch, I just had to buy them! Besides playing the classic Mega Man games, Capcom has created these fun challenges that you could do while re-playing some of the games. Examples like going through the stage within a time limit. Also, if you have the Smash Bros. 4 Mega Man amiibo and the Golden Mega Man amiibo, you can unlock new challenge modes in the game. Also, Capcom has added Save states and a rewind feature to each Mega Man game. If you mess up, you can rewind and retry a certain action again. Want to save at a certain place? You can add a save state to save your progress. I didn't experience any technical issues with the games. I've also provided a couple of photos showing off the case of the Legacy collections. Plus, it comes with a free cleaning cloth that has Mega Man and friends celebrating Mega Man's 30th Anniversary which is pretty neat. **The Half-Physical Half-Digital Release Controversy** There is a minor complaint that I have about the packaging of Mega Man Legacy 1+2 collections. The way Capcom handle the physical copies of the Legacy collections was an odd choice. I bought the physical copy of Legacy 1+2 because I prefer to buy physical games if possible. Capcom had Legacy 1 on a physical cartridge, while Legacy 2 was on a digital download code. I mean, what's the point of having a physical copy if you're only gonna have 1 physical while the other one's digital download? **Final Thoughts** Is getting the Mega Man Legacy 1+2 Collections worth playing and worth the price? I would say yes because you get all Mega Man games bundled together.

This is a game that no retro fan should be without.

10 rad main line Classic MegaMan games for you to have at home or on the go! You can’t go wrong with this Classic MegaMan collection. Already own these 2 collections on the PS4 & the 1st one released on the 3DS yet, this Switch one is my go to by far! This also has MegaMan amiibo support like the 3DS for extra challenges. The extra content & features of these collections are phenomenal! Absolutely amazing for any Classic series MegaMan fan! Seriously can not wait for the MegaMan X Legacy Collections due out this July & MegaMan 11 this Winter! Capcom has been striking back lately & hitting it out of the park.

The first six Mega Man games included on the first collection are all pretty dang good, and the "rewind" feature included on them (you can simply hit the L button to reverse time and redo a tricky jump or tough boss) as well as the ability to save anywhere lessen the crushing difficulty substantially and make them way more fun! The second collection is missing the rewind and save features and is much more of a mixed bag in terms of game quality. It's also a download code, which is frustrating. Still, the strength of the first collection makes it worth owning! You do also get a Mega Man cleaning cloth for your Switch screen, which is a nice bonus!

I grew up with Megaman X as my go to series (having for some reason skipped the megaman series). I still remember a lot of the levels, and tricks needed to get through them in one piece. If you think this will be an easy breeze, think again. This was a time when games made you work for them. Now mind you this is easier then megaman, the X series added some help there, but its still hard. There is a new added mode to make it easier for people just starting out, but I haven't tried it to see HOW much easier it makes it. Runs smooth on switch in dock and handheld with no problems. Only complaint I could have, make sure you have internet and some memory space if you want the full game. The 'second half' of the game is a download code which is annoying.
