    Man, talk about bang for your buck. Mega Man Legacy Collection is a fantastic way to play the classic NES Mega Man games nowadays. Probably the best way to play them, actually. Not only does it include near-perfect emulations of Mega Man 1-6, but it also has a TON of extra content on top of that.

    This is an accurate port of the original NES games. If you’ve played those games as a child and liked them, this will be exactly what you expect. There’s even a TV mode that makes it look like on an old CRT TV, and a setting that emulates the slowdown that would occur in the original games when there were too many sprites on the screen.

    Top TOP game. For Mega Man experts, it's a very easy stroll down memory lane.

    For newbies, this is a BRUTAL collection of games that spits on Dark Souls (seriously). The first Mega Man title will make you lose your damn mind. But I've played it roughly 500 times so it's a breeze for the experts as I say. There is also a 'turbo' mode that negates slowdown (mainly from Mega Man 1 + 3)    Top TOP game.

    There is also a 'turbo' mode that negates slowdown (mainly from Mega Man 1 + 3) and it really adds a lot to the gameplay. No longer can you 'cheat' through hard sections as the game slows down to a crawl.

    Regardless, it's great value for money. Six brilliant games, wonderful concept art/promotional stuff and challenges. There is a lot of value here. Get it.    … Expand

    A truly amazing and fun collection, however the time reverse option makes the games much easier than originally intended.
