Switch owners: what game are you going to pick on February 25th: Megaman Zero ZX Legacy Collection and/or Samurai Shodown?
- Thread starter King Dodongo
- Start date
How are the Zero games, and is it a solid collection overall, or the standard thing of like 2 or 3 good ones and the rest being meh to awful like the other Mega Man collections?
Oh you still think it's coming? Heh
I have Samsho on PS4 and will probably get MMZ Collection later on this year. This month is still "work on backlog" month so I'll hopefully have started Golf Story by then.
They are consistent amongst all 6 yet a little more difficult than the X series. It's fair to say that they are all great, aside from ZX's map system. It follows principles of the first 3 X games. Not so much X4 and after, keep in mind.
Want to say Samurai shodown but I don't purchase fighters on Switch, Nintendo did all the work to make us avoid the genre, Wifi only + Great Dpad (sarcasm, and I know you can purchase a Ethernet to USB adapter and play wired but...what about the others? If no one else is using ethernet then is meaningless)
Since i have MMZ1-4 on the GBA, and The collection + the two other games on DS, i really dont need them on switch.
What i would like is a game that plays like MMZero, but with a higher resolution (the gba resolution was really small), and a new story, with simular tone like the Zero games. Essentially i want a sequell without the old cast.
For people that didn't play them: do it, if you like action games. In my opinion they are the best Mega Man Games (kloser to X then base MM, obviously), movement feeld way better than MMX when you ask me, ahst better writing/characters/story. really really great games.

Imagine buying a late port of a SNK fighting game on the Switch.
(Sorry to the 2 of you buying it was just a joke)

Neither but if whoever keeps tossing out Mega Man ports wants my money they need to start working on Star Force ports.
Both, since SS comes with a Neo Geo Pocket Color game. Kinda nervous tbh since playing VI was godawful and felt like an abysmal Street Fighter ripoff, but I hear VI is the worst anyhow and this one is fun so I'm game. That and the fact that this isn't a 30FPS dumpster fire like SNK Heroines was. I'll get the MMZ collection too so I can try the ZX games for the first time. The X collection barely had any problematic lag (only in the SNES games did it have any that may be noticeable) and previews seem to imply it's just as fine so I'm pretty excited to give them all a go with my Saturn pad
Wasn't that recent Gunvolt Luminous Avenger a Zero style game/maybe even a spiritual successor by the same Devs?

Sorry for not adding RF4. That one flew under my radar.
Great to know that this is a solid version. I'll be buying both games for sure!

Well I have Samurai Shodown on Xbox and I've found myself preferring the Mega Man collections on that too so...technically neither on Switch.
I remember reading something like that some time ago. I guess it wasnt true?
You might be confusing it with the Nesica arcade release, which actually has framedrops and stuttering.

I have always wanted to play the ZX games though so I think that's going to be first.

Count me in as well. Maybe MMZX Collection but RF4 is a definite.
People said that about all the other Mega Man Collections and I never felt like it was an issue and I have an extensive history with the series.
Crossplay with a dead game with delay-based netcode won't help
The 25th belongs to the Zero Collection. $30, everything in the cart/disc, and available worldwide. Just crossing my fingers for no input lag issues. 🤞
I am not the sort of person who buys games at launch but I will at least see if this is as good as the DS versions and make a judgment accordingly.
Portable form factor notwithstanding, I tend to prefer getting these retro rereleases on PC, as it's easier to have fun with the data that way.

Neither. Already have SamSho for PS4 and will be waiting on MegaMan Zero until it's on sale for $20 or cheaper — I wanna play it but I don't value the classics enough to make it an urgent or full priced pickup.
