Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection Off-Screen Gameplay, Menus and Screen Layouts

Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection is out to play at Capcom's PAX booth this weekend. For everyone who can't make it out to the show, Rockman Labs has taken the liberty of shooting close to five minutes of footage from the demo. There's a lot of little things to see here so I've broken down the noteworthy bits after the break...

Rockman & Rockman X 5-In-1 Box Set Now Available to Pre-order

Both Amazon Japan and import specialty retailers Ami Ami and Nin Nin Game have begun accepting pre-orders for the Rockman & Rockman X 5-in-1 box set for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4.

As discussed previously, this set contains five games: Rockman Classics 1, Rockman Classic Collection 2, Rockman X Anniversary Collection 1, Rockman X Anniversary Collection 2, and Rockman 11. The box set also comes with extra space to be filled by the Zero/ZX Legacy Collection, a bonus Rockman 11 script, an acrylic 30th anniversary print, and an exclusive package that will feature brand-new artwork by Ryuji Higurashi and Keiske Mizuno.

For Nintendo Switch owners and collector's of rare Mega Man/Rockman goods, you'll be pleased to know that the Switch version of Rockman Classic Collection 2 will, for the very first (and possibly only time), be printed on a physical cartridge. I suppose it goes without saying, but if you have even an inkling of an interest in owning that, you'll want to get your pre-order in ASAP.

And yes; Amazon Japan's listings say that they don't ship outside of Japan. That's not exactly true. They do ship outside Japan but that "warning" will be lifted closer to release. No worries. Also, I should mention that if you order from Amazon Japan, you'll get a digital wallpaper for your phone and PC!

The Rockman & Rockman X 5-in-1 box set ships December 19th, 2019.

Mega Man: The Wily Wars Officially Licensed Repro-Cartridge Announced (Updated)

If Mega Man: The Wily Wars' representation in the upcoming Sega Geneis/Mega Drive Mini wasn't enough for ya, an officially-licensed reproduction cartridge by Retro-Bit Gaming was just announced on Twitter. 24-years later, this reproduction marks the very first time the game will be sold in the U.S on a legitimate Sega Gensis cartridge.

Retro-Bit writes:

"Only physically released in Japan and Europe, we are bringing #MegaMan Wily Wars to North America for both #Genesis & #MegaDrive -- Get ready for a collector's edition that includes many extras! 🌟More details on this release will come soon!#Gamescom2019 #retrogaming #Capcom"

And that's about all there is to share on this subject for now. I wonder what kind of extras will be included? The Mega Man, Elec Man and translucent Quick Man figures cut off in the image above are NEW, by the way. Perhaps they'll be included in the collector's package? We can only speculate. More updates on this front soon!

UPDATE: According to a blurb in Retro Bit's catalog at Gamescom, the cartridge is due out sometime in Q1 2020.
