Ya the Mega Man Collection. I've got my eye on the PS4 version whenever it goes on sale so I can play them all someday.

I now feel comfortable admitting that the only Mega Man game I played was Battle Network. Don't remember any of the bosses though

But I did try Shovel Knight, and it's deffo not my genre

Okay seriously I haven't played Pokemon Sun/Moon but I've played Black and Crystal and Sapphire and Red, and it's going to be the same ol' same ol': decently paced rpg with a lot of elements that's ultimately not too complex so even kids can play it, with cutesy tamagotchi-esque pet the pokemon add-ons. You'll swap out your team or not depending on if you find a cute pokemon, you'll grind them all up so they're leveled enough totake on the bosses (gyms), and so on and so forth.

You already know in your heart if you want to play this or not.

Have you played a turn-based rpg before? Shin Megami Tensei, early Final Fantasies, anything along those lines?

There's themed dungeons called trials where you fight a few pokemon while doing tasks then at the end you fight a boss. Its definitely the most "theme parky" of the pokemon games but that's an improvement over gyms

Pokemon is always weird for me, even though I really want to love it. The main stories are always far, far too easy to really hold my interest, but then if you wan to get into the multiplayer, you need to do EV training and breed for good IVs and abilities and uggggghhhh.

It's like I'm in some middle-ground that Pokemon misses entirely. I still want to get Sun, though.

Trouble with marathoning Mega Man games is a) there's a freaking million of them and b) they're all fairly similar outside of spin off series like Battle Network.

I got the Legacy collection earlier this year and played through 1-5 but I felt too burned out to finish 6.

yeah i pretty much got it, beat the 2 games i was nostalgic for, and dabbled around in other levels but no way i could play them all

unrelated

does the new3ds make kid icarus uprising more comfortable to play? i'd like to try it again but not if i have to play it the way they intended.

All the self-important wackiness in the world can't make up for the fact that it's a game with f2p cell phone IAP bullshit where you have to pay for lives and wait for cooldown timers.
