Mega Man Picross, anyone? Almost! Juniper has announced Picross S: Capcom Classics Edition for Nintendo Switch. It features Picross puzzles built around classic Capcom characters and scenes, including a number of sprites and art based on Mega Man and Mega Man X.
The game launches on Thursday, November 27th for $17.99. It’s also compatible with Nintendo Switch 2 and supports the Joy-Con 2’s mouse-style mode. More details and screenshots below!
After an extensive test session, our buddy ShadowRockZX has confirmed that—despite earlier warnings about potential in-game compatibility issues—Mega Man Legacy Collection 1 runs just fine on Nintendo Switch 2. In fact, a note on the game’s eShop page confirms the issues have been addressed (pictured above). According to Nintendo, “Game behavior is consistent with Nintendo Switch” and “Previously identified issues have been resolved.”
In related news, Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection benefits slightly from Switch 2 hardware, featuring faster load times and smoother animation in the main menu background.
Whether you’ve played these games on the original Switch or were holding out for the Switch 2, you can rest easy knowing everything runs smoothly!

Following today’s Nintendo Switch 2 Direct, Nintendo has released a comprehensive list of Switch 1 games with compatibility issues on the new console. The list is divided into two categories: games with in-game issues and those with startup problems.
Most Mega Man games from the original Switch library will run without issues on the new system. However, Mega Man Legacy Collection 1 has been flagged for unspecified compatibility problems. While the game will boot, the issues are significant enough to warrant its inclusion on the list. Nintendo has stated that they are currently investigating the matter, so hopefully, a fix will be in place before the Switch 2’s launch on June 5.

Nintendo has announced that all five Game Boy Mega Man games are now available on Nintendo Switch Online. This includes Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge, Mega Man II, III, IV, and V. This also covers Japan, as they have received Rockman World 1-5.
With these re-releases, this marks the second time all five games have been officially available outside of Game Boy hardware, having previously been accessible for individual download from the Nintendo 3DS eShop. However, to play them, you will need an active subscription to Nintendo Switch Online. The basic membership will get you in the door, so don't fret if you're not an "Expansion Pass" member.
Not much else to add—fire up your Switch and relive these bite-sized classics today!
