<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Capcom seems set on making 2018 the year of <em>Mega Man</em>. Along with the release of <i>Mega Man 11 </i>this December, both <i>Mega Man Legacy Collection</i> 1 and 2 will be released for the Nintendo Switch on May 22nd. These compilations will be available for purchase separately on the Nintendo eShop, or together in a physical package.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The first <a href="https://bagogames.com/blast-past-mega-man-legacy-collection-review/"><i>Mega Man Legacy Collection</i></a> was released for PS4, Xbox One, 3DS, and PC back in 2015 and contains the six NES <i>Mega Man </i>titles. In addition to providing a great means of experiencing the series’ fast-paced run-n-gun action, this collection includes a challenge mode containing difficult trials for players to master, a museum which contains information and concept art, a jukebox containing each game&#8217;s soundtrack, and online leaderboards for players who wish to show off their speed running talents.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><i>Mega Man Legacy Collection 2 </i>released in August of last year for PS4, Xbox One, and PC. This contained the latter four classic <i>Mega Man </i>entries, including the difficult to find <i>Mega Man 7</i>. Despite these entries originally running on systems ranging from the SNES to the PS3/360, the emulation here was notably just as smooth as in the first collection. Of particular note here, <i>Mega Man 9 and 10</i> came included with all of their DLC. The additional features from the previous compilation are included here as well.</span></p>

<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The Nintendo Switch versions of the <i>Legacy</i> collections will feature Amiibo support. Using either of the <i>Mega Man</i> Amiibo figures in the first anthology will unlock eleven fan-made challenges that were initially exclusive to the 3DS version. <i>Mega Man Legacy Collection 2</i> will feature its own unique Amiibo-based features that have yet to be announced.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">These collections originally retailed for $19.99 and $14.99 respectively on the eShop, the same as on other platforms. The physical compilation will retail for $39.99 and will contain <i>Mega Man Legacy Collection</i> on a cartridge, but only a download code for the second collection. The physical edition will also include an exclusive <i>Mega Man </i>30th Anniversary cleaning cloth.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Back in December, Capcom had announced that all eight <i>Mega Man X</i> games would be coming to modern platforms as well, but no additional information has been given at this time.</span></p>
