Just wondering, how many of you have the original Mega Man hexology (or pentalogy if you live in the PAL region) on NES? Pictures are preffered (I'll get mine later).

Hexology = 6.

He's asking if anyone has the original 6 NES games.

I do, but all the manuals are in pretty sorry shape.  6 was the very last one I got, at a much later time ... but I played the Hell out of the rest!

They are awesome. Get them now.

Emulators don't compare to the power of the original side.

Amen. The Anniversary Collection is acceptable nowadays because a set costs over $100. And because it isn't illegal.

I also finally got around to taking that picture:

Well in that case, yes. I only got 3/5/6 for NES, though. After 3, I rented 4, and was a little disappointed in comparison. And MM's 1-2? One, they were freaking hard, and two, they were pretty short in comparison. MM1 was just AWFUL! XD

No, you don't. That's not what I was implying. I meant to play them in their true forms where the best way.
Don't cheapen the experience with emus. That's all.

this is true for me, I have Anniversary Collection though. I wish it was a little better made, because the disc randomly stops working... (Kind of like my SA2B disc.) :|

I just might buy that Anniversary Collection for the Game Cube for the sake of Power Fighters/Battles. It beats buying the individual arcade cabinets at about $300 each (but that's still better than playing on emulator  ;)).

I'm still considering getting the PlayStation 2 version, not just because I own a PlayStation 2, but also because it contains the extra music and the Guidance System episode.

I got MM2-MM6 from my cousins a long time ago. My friend has MM1 but he won't let me buy it off him. :(

Oh well, the MMAC is still good, even though the Game Cube version removed the remixed music...

IIRC, the GameCube version plays kind of weird, with it's A and B buttons being switched like they are. So "shoot" is the rightmost button (B?), and jump is the big one in the middle. Very weird!

Power Battle/Fighters is a fun little romp, and it makes me wish they did more with the MM7-style sprites; like another full-blown title. And I think there's a "Survival Mode" code or something for the console-ported ones, where you can face all 18 Robot Masters in it, and all 3 fortress bosses, and THEN Dr. Wily, all in one go! (I'm not sure how stacking the weapons works in that, however - or even if you get them at all!)

:O (God, I wish my PS2 wasn't in DRE mode still!)

I only have the Anniversary Collection for GC. (Lucky for me I found it at a bargain (10.99), well before they closed the store (R.I.P. Play 'n Trade), it was the only place i could find good old classic games, my only regret is that I didn't buy MML2 and Chrono Cross before the day I found the store empty...*sniff*) But as long I have the original megaman games, i'm happy. Wish they didn't reverse the controlls though.

What is this "Survival Mode" code you speak of?

How about a game with 7's graphics and 8's sound effects?   8)
