And it was awesome - Mega Man 9 is the standout game in this particular collection (though I admittedly have a nostalgic fondness of Mega Man 8).Ĭapcom tried to get lightning to strike a second time with Mega Man 10, but that one wasn’t nearly as well-received as the previous game in the series. Keep in mind this game came out in 2008 (for the PS3, Xbox 360, and Nintendo Wii), so that was actually a big deal at the time. Capcom decided to return the franchise back to its roots with Mega Man 9, which went back to the classic 8-bit NES style. Mega Man 7 and 8 head in a more X-ish direction, with the anime-style art design and a stronger commitment to story.Īnd then something weird happens. You can very clearly see that, at this point in history, the Mega Man X series was winning out in the popularity wars against the original series.
Mega Man 7 originally released on SNES in 1995, and Mega Man 8 originally released on PSOne in 1996. Mega Man Legacy Collection 2 brings us into Mega Man’s identity crisis, which makes this a really inconsistent package.
