Not sure about the release date, or about additional content yet.

Anyways, what a nice little collection this will make.

___EDIT___

April 22 seems to be the release date in Japan...

OH COME ON.

>:l

I'M PUTTING THIS ON THE FRONT PAGE ANYWAY, ALONG WITH THE DATE.

All four games on DS? Hmmm. I just might snag this one.

I'm not offended, I just like WINNING.

This is a CONTEST. Nay, a WAR.

So, there's no word that this will be released outside of Japan.

But that hasn't stopped Capcom from making a topic so people can beg for it over here.

They'll probably release it here, either way. Compilations are cheap to make, and often bring in lots of gamers looking for the bigger, better deal.

And if Mega Man Mania follows suit, I will faint.

Haven't touched my DS in about a year now...This will be a great opportunity to dust it off.

Haven't played any of the Zero games past the first one, so it will be a great opportunity to play them as well.

Great news.

So apparently the second screen on the DS is suppose to be used to depict character art and data, supposedly during gameplay.

Who knows really, but I'm kind of hoping the Touch Screen will be used to swap weapons during gameplay, without having to stop the game and open up the menu.

With that said, wouldn't it be neat if any of the exclusive Weapons from any of the games could be carried over to another? Say, have access to the Triple Rod, Chain Rod, Recoil Rod, Shield Boomerang, and dare I say, the Zero Knuckle in all four games?

I get the feeling, that the players may have to collect the pictures. Find and fight/defeat the enemy to gain the picture. Enemies, Bosses, Cyber-Elves along with others.

Mega Man Mania, is still a possibility. Heck the five Original games, along with the two Xtreme games could be put in one DS game.

I can already imagine, a possible Boss Rush Mode in this game. Bosses from all four games perhaps.

Are you freaking kidding me? A boss rush on the Zero series would be next to impossible. I mean, seriously. Remember Aztec Falcon? Its not often that the first of the eight bosses curbstomps you repeatedly despite all of your best efforts.

US Release date

No surprise.

I never bought/was able to get into this series! Perhaps this is finally my chance to do so.

I've been excited about this one for a while now, and it looks like it might be better than I thought. The US trailer is out, and it uses UNCENSORED footage from the Japanese games, while maintaining an E rating from ESRB. That means that the blood splatters are intact. Of course, that could all change between now and release.

Even if they have to change the color, I hope they leave that element in the games.

Looking forward to the music and character picture collecting. Patience is defenitely my strongest virtue.

Has anyone else picked this game up or thought about picking this game up yet?

I can't really say it's anything special. The thought never occurred to me until I started playing this game, but I realized that this compilation is just as well playing the originals, considering that the originals can all be played on a DS as well. Not to mention, alternatively, the originals can be played on a GBA Player, if you have one.

Other than that, the wallpapers are okay and remapping the controls for Y and X was a bigger pain than it needed to be (I still don't have the controls set up how I want them...)

I haven't tried the Easy Scenerio Mode yet, and I don't know enough about Mod Cards.

One thing's for sure, I'm really not looking forward to getting and feeding all of the Cyber-Elves again, obtaining Ultimate Mode in each of the games (U. Form in Z2), getting all of the Ex Skills, and rebuilding every Part in MMZ4. No need to rush through it all though.

It's certainly a good deal. The content so far is fairly generic for a compilation.

The only thing I think the originals beat this compilation in is being able to play them on a GBA Player.

On another note, I'm curious about these Card Mods. I read somewhere you can change certain aspects of Zero 3 with them. I'll personally clarify this, once I complete the first two games.

Honestly, for a good while. I am good with the original four games. The reason I have to buy this, is for the sake of collecting individual character artwork.

It will be some time before I buy this game.

HAW HAW HAW...

Found it at my local Gamestop store. In the used section for $20.

Right now, I am playing through the easy mode. From one game to the other. When I am done with that, I'll start collecting the pictures.

And yes, the music is BadAss.

Haven't played this one in a while. I did beat all four games on Normal, and unlocked the Ultimate Mode for all the games.

Reading my previous post, as too late as it is to mention now, the Card Mods do in fact alter some changes in Zero 3. Some of them even upgrade Zero further.

I think this is awesome, considering 3 is my favorite in the series.

I think I started playing through the Easy mode (Scenario?), but never got around to finishing it.

My copy is still sitting on my shelf, sealed. That shows you how much time I have for gaming these days... >_<

I probably didn't put the game down for weeks... Okay, I did put it down for small intervals, but then I picked it right back up again after I was done with whatever necessary-for-continued-living chore I was doing.

I played it so much my little sister wanted to see what I was doing, so I handed it to her to play the final boss of Zero 4. Instead she chose to read the pre-fight dialog out loud, doing different voices and everything. But she didn't finish. "Doesn't Dr. Wheel ever shut up?"

Anyway, great game(s)!
