More Megaman than you can handle.

This game has 10 Megaman games in it. The first Megaman was made back in the 1980's. Graphics are the same. Playability is the same. It took me just as long to get through the levels as it used to.

Was I ever good at these?

Wow, playing these games makes me realize that I must have been insanely good at games when I was a kid! These are HARD! The earlier games in the series are much harder than the later games (I vaguely remember that the bosses had to be beaten in a certain order... to the Internet searches!). Maybe I'm not as patient as I was, but I find myself only playing these when I'm in the mood. The play feels really stiff compared to, say, Mario, but if you want agonizing jumping action you'd be hard pressed to find anything better!

for old megaman fans everyware this is for you

it has been many years since megaman blessed our NES console with basic platforming action and shooting well now its ack again with the greatest mix of megaman classics ranging from NES to SNES but keeping the same style throughout, choose a level fight your way through the tricks and traps then defeat the end boss and gain some of its power (ice powers from ice man, fire powers from fire man).
the format is the same in all 8 starter megaman titles with 2 unlockables (that ive found so far) anyone whos played megaman in the older days should fork out over this title and be proud of it, old fans will remember the quick man time stopper level or the first time they defeated the first megaman.
8 times DR whily brought down terror on the world and 8 times megaman thwarted his plans assisted along the way with a cast of friends like protoman and rush.
1 criticisem i have is in the later titles the boss names became more and more farfetched (junk man, chargeman) but thats my only bad point to add.
Any one who never played the old megaman may not find this to their likeing unless you like retro style nes gaming but old megaman fans will die for this i know i will

Jack In, Megaman.EXE...What? It's Not Battle Network?

Okay, I admittedly didn't grow up on the Classic series, heck, I didn't even KNOW about the Classic series until this game came out. I grew up on Battle Network for the Gameboy Advance, and always thought it to be the original Megaman series. But, when my friend got this for his birthday, and I noticed the "15th Anniversary" logo, I realised how wrong I was. So, I went to my local Target and...Holy crud...

I admit it, I still prefer Battle Network MUCH more than the Classic series, but I have to admit...This is awesome! So, the Someday-Will-Be Net Navi is a robot, fighting the Robot Masters of Dr. Wily, and absorbing their powers in a way similar tlo what will eventually become Double Soul in BN4, except he only changes colro sand nto appearance. It's definately hard, I have trouble on Gutsman's stage...

So, this is a die-hard Battle Network fan, for once complimenting a series OTHER than BN or Star Force (Coming soon to a store near you!), saying "Go buy this game!"

A wonderful collection of nostalgia and fun!

Let's face it: there are so many Mega Man titles out there. But thankfully, Capcom made it easy for gamers to have access to all of the classic titles on one disk! It's convenient and it allows me to go back and play those Mega Man titles I grew up with, as well as get more acquainted with some that I simply haven't played enough of. With two additional arcade games never released in the U.S., what more could I ask for.

The only con to this game? The menus are not fast enough. You literally navigate a Mega Man sprite to a door, each door containing a classic Mega Man game. It can sometimes take too long to get to the game of your choice, as the sprite runs rather slowly. However, this is small potatoes and doesn't provide grounds for me to lower my rating on this collection of games.

I recommend it to anyone who is either looking for nostalgia, or anyone who is looking for something really entertaining and challenging to play!

Capcom obviously didn't put much effort into this

While the old MegaMan games were good, it feels like Capcom just stopped caring about porting these games partway through. I mean, MegaMan 1-8 are fine*, but the menu is horrible, the "extras" are worthless, and the arcade games....oh, the arcade games. They're getting their own paragraph.

The arcade games WOULD'VE been fun, if they didn't suffer from horrible, horrible slowdown whenever more than 4 sprites were on the screen. Seriously, did they bother to test the games at all?! And what are they doing behind the scenes that makes a GameCube choke when displaying 4 simple animated sprites?

All in all, most of it's not bad, but it just feels like Capcom gave this project to a couple interns and never bothered to check the results.

*Fine, except that MegaMan 8 has the most hilariously bad voice acting since the original Resident Evil. Everyone sounds like they're barely even interested in their lines, MegaMan sounds like an 8-year-old girl, and Dr. Light sounds like Elmer Fudd!

A great experience, but...

Overall, this is a great collection for someone looking for all of these games in one place. It has its issues, but it delivers on what it promises: that blue guy that shoots other robots.

The button issue that's been mentioned multiple times is definitely a downer: it's a little tough to get used to. However, it's made up for by the fact that these games are crazy difficult, and at times mind-boggling. And on top of all of that, YOU CAN SAVE THEM via the save cartridges. Having played 2 and 4 on the original NES, the password function usually led to having to write down and remember long codes or buttons that made no sense, just so you would never have to deal with Quick Man again.

Of the 8, the gem is Mega Man 2: arguably one of the best games on the original NES. The other games are great for their own reasons as well, though 8 is just weird (the anime cut scenes, the soccer/football element, etc.)
