!!!STEAM DECK USER BEWARE!!! There's the usual test pattern graphic glitch in the Main Menu and the cutscenes in the ZX games don't have audio. You still need tinkering with ProtonGE and adding a launch option for it to work perfectly. Other than that, the game works just fine. Tinker steps: - Use ProtonGE 8-25. - Add the following line as the launch option. GST_PLUGIN_FEATURE_RANK=protonaudioconverterbin:NONE %command% A fantastic collection of the GBA Megaman Zero and the NDS Megaman ZX games in one package. Still has the usual stuff you would expect from the Legacy Collection such as Gallery, Music Player and Achievement (ZZ Cards). They also has an extra mode called Z Chaser where you essentially "speed run" a handpicked level from across the Zero and ZX games with several time records to beat. For the game itself, its great, one of the best Megaman series, in both gameplay and story-wise. Keep in mind that the game is known for its brutally hard difficulty and Capcom is kind enough to provide us with 2 assist feature. Save-Assist and Casual Scenario Mode Save Assist is basically a save state that scattered on the levels (usually before though platforming section and boss fights) that will automatically loads you there if you died (essentially making the in-game lives system useless and as the side effect, you will not get penalized for your in-game Rank for dying since it just load a save states. Great if you're aiming to get every bosses EX-Skill) Casual Scenario Mode on the other-hand, is an easy mode where you started out with all of your health upgrades and cyber elves. Great for people who just want to experience the story and newcomer who want to get used to the gameplay first before going into the harder "Normal" mode. This WILL lock you out from certain achievement so if you're achievement hunter, I recommend turning this OFF and just keep the Save Assist ON (you will still get the achievement) For individual games, i'll just write a short summary for it Megaman Zero 1 suffers a lot from "first game syndrome". The mechanic has a lot of jank (having to level up your saber proficiency to be able to do 3 swing and full charge is stupid). Questionable level design and also kinda like metroidvania-ish where you actually have to walk to your mission area instead of teleporting. Not recommended for your first playthrough of the series. Megaman Zero 2 fixes a LOT of the issues from the first game. They return to the old format where you pick bosses and teleport to their respective stages. Weapon proficiency is still a thing though but they cut down the grind requirement for it so its not as bad as Zero 1. But they still suffers from GBA screen-crunch with the level design so you might get blindsided from random insta-death spikes or enemy placement. I recommend starting from this. Megaman Zero 3 are regarded as the best game in the series. Lots of improvement from Zero 2 like weapon proficiency is removed so you can do your charge and 3 saber swing from the get go, you can assign 2 cyber elfs as "satellite" instead of consuming it and lower your in-game rank and more. The level design are much improved from 2. The story are excellent here. Megaman Zero 4 is good, not as good as 3 but still good. They removed all of Zero's extra weapon in favor of Z Knuckles where you steal enemy weapon. Level design hit a nose-dive here tho. There's a lot of bullshit spike placement and leap of faith moment. And some of the mid-boss fight are tougher than the actual stage bosses. Cyber elf system also bit simplified too since they all act like Zero 3 "satellites" elf. There's also a crafting system to craft upgrade chip like auto charge or double jump which you used get those from progressing the game in Zero 2 and 3. Element chip are also removed, instead the EX skill are now the replacement for it and its sucks ngl. But the really nailed the ending story here. Megaman ZX is just metroidvania Megaman. Like Zero 1, it suffers from first game syndrome. The ingame map is unreadable mess (just grab a map from the internet if you can) and there's a LOT of backtracking, which is standard for Metroidvania game but the problem is there's few teleport point available so you have to do lot of walking (or dashing with Model HX) Megaman ZX Advent fixes some of the issue of ZX1, namely the Map are now more readable and they tuned down the metroidvania-ish level structure. There's an abundant of teleport point here so backtracking is not an issue here. Some of the side quest are a bit grindy (also an issue with the first ZX game), and unlike ZX1 where you only have 7 forms available, ZXA has whopping 15 forms (6 of which are returning from ZX1 and the rest are the copy of boss itself) Overall its a pretty good package. There's no bad games here, all games are banger with some up and downs. Is it worth getting? well, this is a legal way to play these game without Emulator and also benefit from the PC port is you can mod the game. Didn't like that eargrating GBA guitar sample in MMZ4? You can replace the entire soundtrack with the high quality remixes OST. So i guess its worth it, even if you already played the game on GBA / NDS with the MMZ Collection. Pricing might be a bit steep for a 4 GBA + 2 NDS games so I recommend waiting for sale.

This is the definitive way to play these games due to the fact you can mod them to uncrust the ds/gba music with their "tunes" soundtracks which are of way higher quality. You can also mod ZX to add the japanese VO in the english release, which had no english VO for some reason.

the key rebind options feel like the result of several meetings on how to make the most utterly terrible system possible. it's literally the ZX collection capcom why can't i use those keys apart from that it's decent i guess. the games are all pretty dope and the assist stuff is welcomed whilst not removing all the challenge.

Of all the Mega Man sub-series, these games are probably my personal favorites. Although, as demonstrated with all of the collections released, they tend to blend into one another, especially if you play them all sequentially (something I do NOT recommend with all of the Mega Man compilations, considering their saturation). They're no less solid all the same: puncutated by quick stages and dead-on precise controls of any action-platformers I've played, the Mega Man Zero/ZX games are some of the most tightly woven thrill rides that series has ever seen. + Save Assist feature makes for more reliable checkpoints than those provided in-game + Toggleable screen formatting options for the ZX games + Remastered audio across all titles and cutscenes for ZX/Advent

It's been a little over four years since this collection came out, but I'm still really enjoying these games. This is a really strong re-release of what are by far my favorite games in this entire franchise. The games themselves are still great and are preserved extremely well. The Zero series' combat is surprisingly in-depth for games that came out on the GBA, and they're surprisingly (albeit usually pleasantly) difficult. It's usually not a bad thing by any means, except for the original Mega Man Zero who's difficult can border on unreasonable sometimes. But for the most part, the games work exactly as you'd expect. One thing I don't like about this collection, particularly with the Zero half, is that the cutscene art is very poorly upscaled and there's no toggle to let you view them the way they were originally on the GBA. The ZX cutscenes look like they were re-mastered and look much better and more crisp, and we've seen some of the Zero series cutscene art perfectly crisp in the Mega Man Zero Official Complete Works book, so if the idea was to have higher quality cutscenes, why not use those renditions? As for the collection itself, the extra features are really nice. Being completely honest, out of all of the extra features, Z-Chaser ended up being the one I went back to the least. The menu music for it is exceptionally good, and Z-Chaser is a very good challenge mode, but I feel like an X Challenge type of mode would've fit the Zero games way better. In all honesty, I wish the Mega Man X Legacy Collections had a mode like Z-Chaser instead of this one. Achievements are a great addition, the Museum and Gallery are always nice to see, especially since Mega Man Zero's artwork and soundtrack are arguably the best the series has ever seen. Overall, for $30USD, this collection is insanely worth buying. These games are the peak of the entire Mega Man franchise on all fronts, I couldn't recommend buying this more.
