Mega Man Zero Collection, coming to a DS near you

[Nintendosbooger]

Capcom has it up on their Japanese website.

Anyone who hasn't played these games on the GBA are in for a real treat, as this MM spinoff is considered the best of the MM series since the originals for the NES. IMO, it's better than X series as well, but it's debatable.

Anyway, this makes the DS, once again, the portable to own this year. This is a day 1 fucking buy. I thought the DUAL SCREEN aka the DEVELOPER'S SYSTEM was going to give the PSP some breathing room or at least give it some small window to stage some sort of comeback, but then Capcom announces this? RIP 2010.

If you love action games with mild rpg elements, this is the collection to get.

[demi]

Yeah, this will be great. Now I juts have to download 1 DS game instead of 4 GBA

Why is it you bring your pirate rhetoric bullshit into every single upcoming release thread? No one wants to hear that BS, honestly, and you're supposed to set a better example. Why would a serious developer/programmer (not that M3w whoreson that regularly posts here) come to this place when they see bitch-made asshole pirates like you talking about stealing shit? Fuck outta my thread, man.

[Positive Touch]

i've owned all 4 for years but only really played 1 & 3 :\

too bad about all that rpg bullshit

also stfu nintendosbooger nobody cares

[demi]

Why do you think I pirate games? I think you're messed up bro, you shouldn't point fingers.

[MCD]

should have sold my gba games but who knows, this port could suck.

[Arbys Roast Beef Sandwich]

good. ZX and ZX Advent are TERRIBLE

[AdmiralViscen]

Yeah, this will be great. Now I juts have to download 1 DS game instead of 4 GBA

You're the one bringing DS vs PSP sales rhetoric from 2005 into a thread about a good game release. Fuck you.

[Himu]

They need to add cutscene skip.

PLEASE.

Also, bought.

[MCD]

i remember a skip button.

[Himu]

My favorite, Z2, doesn't have a skip button. It has text scroll, but no cutscene skip.

[drew]

yeah, there is no way that some shitty sawblade sprite ds game is as good as the x games on playstation

[ananus]

the zero games

1) are already playable on most ds's, except the shitty overpriced ones
2) came out just the other day
3) have tried to refine the megaman formula by unnecessarily making it more complicated, and as such have actually made it worse, except maybe for the first game.
3.1) useless cyber elves, crap ranking system, repeated weapon animations, useless additional weapons, useless gimmicks - weather, stealing crap enemy weapons, cooking armor, cyber world etc etc

it's definitely a sign of something wrong with the ds library if this gets people excited

[Himu]

Mega Man Zero games are fuck awesome.

And yeah, ds is lol in the next few months.

[Himu]

yeah, there is no way that some shitty sawblade sprite ds game is as good as the x games on playstation

Except MMZ2 > every X game except ARGUABLY MMX4.

But MMX4 doesn't have SLICING ENEMIES IN HALF:

THE BEST MEGA MAN

[ananus]

i recall liking 1 and 3, although i can't remember what i liked about 3 besides copy x. maybe the armor parts and the higher number of stages

[demi]

Zero 4 came out 5 years ago

[ananus]

that's "just the other day" in the prole age base

besides, it took them like a 204093 years to make the other collections. and there have been way too many ports/remakes lately. maybe they should just stop being cheap and work on something new, instead of porting games that are playable as is

it's bad enough when they take an old game, make it 3d and give it a new number. outright porting them like this is pushing it tbqh

[MCD]

i like the zero games because i like close ranged weapons AKA swords better than busters.

[Himu]

I feel ya, Anus. I feel ya.

I want a new Mega Man title that's not 8-bit.

i like the zero games because i like close ranged weapons AKA swords better than busters.

MY MAN

It's so satisfying leveling a stage with nothing but your sword.

[M3wThr33]

I love the Zero games, but they're best played on an SP. It has the best shoulder buttons.

Also, the best X game is 4. Hands down.

[Nintendosbooger]

You're the one bringing DS vs PSP sales rhetoric from 2005 into a thread about a good game release. Fuck you.

I was bringing up cause and effect, not pirating BS. Apples and oranges. Don't try to compare the two, dumbass. Better yet, take a note from my man Tupac: "when grown folks talk, bitch, close your mouth."

[Ichirou]

Also, Knights in the Nightmare is getting a PSP port with new anime scenes and enhanced graphics.  Seems the PSP gets the superior version while the DS just gets four games you could play on it if you owned them on GBA anyway.

So basically,

I should get this if I dont want to pay obscene money for copies, missed out on them originally, and would rather opt to have all in one package. Thanks for the info.

[drew]

god why are nintendo fans always so angry?

that was a rhetorical question, its because they live in a self imposed prison made out of shit

[M3wThr33]

Also excited for Rockman EXE: Operate Shooting Star. That should be interesting, though MMBN has been pretty lame since MMBN3.

they cost the same

and if you liked the games that much you shoulda bought them when they came out

[demi]

You mean I have a CHOICE? Wow... I've... never had to do this before

[ananus]

next time i'm criticizing something, i'll make sure to add "does demi have a choice?" to my considerations

[demi]

lol. well dont strain too hard bro, i aint paying for anything. i'm just punting yer pussy

[tiesto]

Never got around to picking up the Zero series, so count me in!

[MCD]

My favorite, Z2, doesn't have a skip button. It has text scroll, but no cutscene skip.

just tried it in an emulator, you are right, my bad. i guess they added a skip button in 3 and 4.

you know what's this port need? a goddamn button for your secondary weapon, holding R and pressing A is not cool.

[ananus]

a u mad derivative with the homo tone? damn, you got desperate fast, demi

Your schtick is stale.

[drew]

damn, you stopped making sense fast, ananus

[demi]

^ haha yeah I couldnt even think of a reply to that. Silly boys~

[Himu]

YOU SHOULDN'T REBUY GAMES YOU LIKE, ESPECIALLY IF THEY'RE ALL PACKAGE IN ONE CART FOR CONVENIENCE YOU SELL OUTS.

[BobFromPikeCreek]

I think the only one I played only allowed you to dash on double tap, which pissed me off.

[Beezy]

YOU SHOULDN'T REBUY GAMES YOU LIKE, ESPECIALLY IF THEY'RE ON A HANDHELD

Fixed and true for the past decade.

Erm, you can change the button layout in every Zero game to have the secondary weapon use a separate button rather than "hold R/press B".

woops, should have told me years ago. not a big loss anyway, i used the sword all the way except for mmz1 final boss (2nd form), used the gun because he was a real pain.

[Vizzys]

yeah now that i think about it, controls are gonna suck hard for this

gba shits all over ds in comfort dpad and button scheme wise

[M3wThr33]

yeah now that i think about it, controls are gonna suck hard for this

gba shits all over ds in comfort dpad and button scheme wise

Straight up.

I remember trying MMZ2 in my DS and wanting to die.

Maybe on the XL?

[Himu]

yeah now that i think about it, controls are gonna suck hard for this

gba shits all over ds in comfort dpad and button scheme wise

Yep.

I've tried playing MMZ2-4 on my ds and...well, it's not nearly as good as gba or even a standard joypad for emulator play.

[MCD]

i played them with the gamecube gameplay player, feels good man.

[Himu]

Fa real, man.

[drew]

bububububu the wii and ds' artsy fartsy aesthetic is part of the whimsy!

you want to be on the winning team dont you?

[bork]

Also excited for Rockman EXE: Operate Shooting Star. That should be interesting, though MMBN has been pretty lame since MMBN3.

I'm interested in this, but skeptical.  Was not a fan of the behind the back perspective they switched to in Starforce.  But I did enjoy the original .EXE enough that I will check it out.

Capcom, once again proving that the best DS titles are GBA port-ups and remakes. 

[magus]

but the best GBA titles were SNES port-ups and remakes 

[Himu]

Not saying it's not doable, but it ain't nearly as comfortable.

[BobFromPikeCreek]

Going back to the ZX series, ZX Advent is definitely not worth checking out if I didn't like ZX?

[cool breeze]

yeah, I'm passing on this.  I really liked Zero 2 and all the games were fun, but this DS collection doesn't add anything.  The game is still letterboxed as if you were playing a GBA game on the DS, even though that's what it is.  Bottom screen is for just art of Zero or the Boss; no map or quick item select.

God that music is sex.
Pity about the lazy collection. Lord knows a map could have helped the game a lot.

[Purple Filth]

oh good, something to pirate.

[BobFromPikeCreek]

Weak effort, but it would probably sell just the same regardless of the work they put into it.

[Himu]

Oh my
