mikeszekely Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 By now, most game retailers should have the Mega Man Anniversary Collection for PS2 and Gamecube. At a measly $29.99, it'd be worth it if it just emulated the games in their original form, but developer Atomic Planet actually went and re-wrote the games, so each one plays beautifully, not to mention they crammed the game with extras. The PS2 version is simply amazing. The controls were a perfect fit on the Dual Shock 2, the remixed music is cool, and little tweaks like adding an auto fire button and allowing the L1 and R1 buttons to switch weapons are nice touches. Not to mention that you can play the NES versions in the original format you remember, or in the cool "Navi Mode" from the Rockman: The Complete Works series that came out for PSone in Japan. Another nice touch for those who remember getting their rear ends handed to them is that you can set the number of starting lives from 3-5, and you can select either "Normal" or "Easy" difficulty for Mega Man 1-7. Since the old pause trick is gone, I think a lot of people are going to be playing Mega Man 1 on easy to keep from breaking controllers on the Yellow Devil (aka Rock Monster), but I don't reccomend playing all the games in easy, because it makes the rest of the games almost comically easy. Oh, another thing is that the game autosaves. Everytime you beat a level, it automatically saves it. That's handy if you don't feel like writing down passwords (and REALLY handy for Mega Man 1, since you originally had to play it straight through). But, if you're like me and have a notebook somewhere that you wrote down all the passwords from when you played it back in the day, good news! Those passwords still work! Nintendo fans are kinda mad right now, because the PS2 version is clearly the better version. Since the games aren't emulated, some of the cooler stuff like the remixed music coulding fit on the smaller Gamecube media. Also, for reasons that boggle the mind, Atomic Planet decided to use the A button for fire, and the B button for jump on the Cube version. If you have a choice, go for the PS2 version, but if you only have a Cube (or a Cube and an Xbox), the Cube version is still worth it. Okay, I'm outta here! I got Robot Masters to take care of...

Wumzi Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 (edited) Are the remixed tunes really that good? I was thinking of picking up the gamecube version, but the missing remixed tunes are bugging me. Edited June 24, 2004 by Wumzi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efisher Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 (edited) I just got the GC version today and the backward buttons (B button to jump and A to shoot - Capcom, what were you thinking!) do take a while to get used to, but if you played Metroid Prime you shouldn't have no problem adjusting. A very nice and complete compilation from Capcom - a definited must buy! Btw, if you have a Hori digital controller, this game was made for it.

If they couldn't fit the whole package into 1.5 gigabytes, they are not worthy of their dev kit. Just beause you port an NES game to a GameCube doesn't mean it suddenly takes massive amounts of space. Your sprites are still 8*16*2bpp, if I recall. Your screen resolution, and thus background resolution, is still only 256*240. The NES ROM iamges are an accurate representation of how much space things should take.

IT DOESN'T MATTER. The data used is still the same size. Just because you're on a new system doesn't mean an 8*16*2bit sprite suddenly takes MORE space. It's the same 256 bits of data, just being fed to a new executable. The music is where the space change occurs, as the 'Cube lacks the PSG of an NES. Without knowing the hardware better, I can't guess if it can be programmed to simulate one like the SNES hardware can(as was done for exactly ONE game), but I WILL bet that no one bothered even if it could. BTW, you aren't shoring your argument up well with the PS revisions, as even assuming that the entire disk is music, so that stripping remix tunes out halves the game size, you're STILL over the 1.5 gig limit with no extras. Or even any games... I don't know what they were doing on the NES remixes to make them larger than Megaman 8. I've never had the pleasure of owning any of them. But I can assure you it had little to do with the process of porting the game. In fact, I've heard that the PS1 Megaman remixes load the entire game into RAM when you start playing, thereby completely eliminating load times during play. And as the PS1 only HAS 2 meg of system RAM, that places an upper limit on how large the games can be. They likely stream music from the disk. But the only way music is going to fill the whole disk like that is if they're using something high-quality and uncompressed, like raw redbook audio. And music compression is no big deal for a modern system. The GameCube has quite enough horsepower to stream compressed audio from disk and decode it in real-time while running a smooth game. Far more so when running a straight port of an NES game. And I can take a full 650 megs of redbook audio down to 88 megs at grotesquely high quality settings. Though personally, I'd use the nice sample playback hardware they have in all 3 systems, at least for the remixed versions(though I think the original PSG music can be done with samples too, I'm not as sure). Load your instrument set, load your "score" and set the sound chip to work playing it back. BTW, check out the Genesis title "Rockman Megaworld" or "Megaman: The Wily Wars". It features full remakes, as opposed to just remixes, of the first 3 games. Full resprite, more frames of animation, new music, the whole 9 yards. In 2 megabytes of space. I repeat: If Capcom can't fit the whole package into 1.5 gig, they don't deserve their dev kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because Normal in NES MM2 wasn't in the original RockMan. Rockman2 was considered "too hard" by the localization team. So they hacked an easy mode in, and labelled it "normal".

But bottom line is don't blame Capcom/Atomic Planet because Nintendo insists on using propriatary media every time they make a new system. Trimming the quotes down... What I'm gathering from other places is yes, they're using raw uncompressed music. Hence the atrociously large size needed. So yes, it's true that there's not enough space, but no, it's not the insurmountable obstacle it's made out to be. And there's a few rumors floating around that Sony might've offered up some cash to discourage the use of audio compression. Of course, everyone loves to hate Sony(justifiably, but...), so it's as likely to be a random Nintendo fanboy ranting as anything with credibility. Vinny: It's a common misconception. Power Battle Was released in America, they just never sold many units. So many people think it never had an American release. As far as I know, Power Fighter never got to the States, though. Though the system used for the arcade games(CPS1 for the first, CPS2 for the second) is set up so that any region game contains all region versions. So a lack of a US release doesn't prevent the existence of an english version. Just stick a japanese cart into an American system board and VOILA! English version of a game with no english release. And it IS true that neither one's ever had a HOME release in America. ... In fact, the only home version I'm aware of is for the NeoGeo Pocket.

Wumzi Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 I just picked it up for the GC, and although I'm glad i got it, I'm kinda dissapointed with it. First thing was the button placement. It's already been beaten to death on the IGN boards, but I didn't give it much thought. I figured I'll adapt, just like any other game. But they really did screw it up. A new user probably wouldn't be bothered by the difference, but I found myself completly lost, dying all the time. I figured I was rusty after so many years, so I popped the original Mega Man 2 into the NES and beat the thing, no problems. I guess 5 years of mental conditioning playing the original can't be undone in one sitting. I was looking forward to the remixed music, since half the fun of playing the games was the music. But I guess I can live without them. Besides, I'm focusing too hard on the new buttons to pay any attention to the music All in all, I'd say this is average. It would've been my dream come true if they left the buttons as they were on the NES, but eh, what can you do?

Hikuro Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 You know wha I had that problem too! Also did you notice, I don't remember there being an extra button on the old NES controls to allow 3x the amount of ammo to be fired in the first game....yet, A button fires, B button jumps and Y button shoots 3 extra rounds....uuuuuhhhhhhh.........I remember when I use to play Top Gun on my NES, you had to do like some button mashing to fire missiles....and a few double taps of the joy pad to barrel roll which didn't do you really any good....but damn.... Now I remember playing a few of the old Megaman games when I was kid (mind you I was 4 at the time it came out.....and 6 when I got an NES, STILL in mint condition!) But I'm figuring out just how childishly EASY some of the levels are in the earlier games.....yet I'm so EASILY entertained......god damn nostaglia! However, though some nostaglia is good for you, I'm gonna say one thing I WISH they would had done....MEGAMAN 8 NEEDED JAPANESE OPTIONS GOD DAMNIT! AGH! I HATE I HATE I HATE MEGAMANS GIRLIE VOICE!

Stamen0083 Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 (edited) MM8's boarding sequences aren't too bad. Just stay on the left side of the screen and don't panic. This new game doesn't allow you to change button configurations? Sounds rather restrictive. I KNOW there was no way I could play the Playstation MMX games if I wasn't allowed to change the dash button. I could pull it off on the SNES. The size and shape of the PS pads would have made it quite impossible. MEGAMAN 8 NEEDED JAPANESE OPTIONS GOD DAMNIT! AGH! I HATE I HATE I HATE MEGAMANS GIRLIE VOICE! HAH! You're in for a surprise.

DarkPhoenix Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 Megaman X is dead. The series is known as "Zero and his blue sidekick" now. There's nothing wrong with that. The MegamanX series jumped the shark HARD with X7, while the Megaman Zero series on the GBA seems to be workin' just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
