This version runs natively on Windows and supports both the original Japanese release and the English fan translation. More importantly, it delivers stability the game never really had: a locked 15fps, uninterrupted music and audio, and clean native upscaling from 1x resolution.
To get the game up and running, you'll need to obtain the original Japanese i-αppli game files for Phantom of Network from SciLab Secrets. Follow the instructions on GitHub closely and you'll be all set in no time.
I cannot say much for other communities, as I am only into Mega Man, but the Blue Bomber fans seem to be the most dedicated fanbase I have ever seen. Kudos to all people involved.
ReplyDeleteRegarding the game itself, if you like MMBN, this game and its sequence are a must. It is a bit janky, as its original platform base were old cellphones, but it lives up to its GBA counterparts. In fact, once I finished Legend of Network, I got a sad nostalgia feeling, because this entry reminded me of all the experience I had with this series in my teenagerhood and also made me realize games like this will probably never exist again.
