Hmm, maybe that redone one would be better with the effects the first one had (the echoing fade out).

But I kiiiiinda like the original, cuz of nostalgia, hehe

This is tangentially Mega Man related.

So, remember when Inafune kick started Mighty No 9, and ALSO wanted to do a Mega Man Legends "successor" at the same time? It was called Red Ash and there was a pretty big backlash about it, since MN9 wasn't developing very smoothly

Well, he actually managed to get a anime OVA made back in 2017. And the Studio that made it just put it up on youtube, but only for the next month. It's...actually pretty okay. Kind of gives us an idea of what might have been.

Turn on closed captioning in order to get English subtitles.

I liked it, but I'm not sure how involved Inafune was. I think the game version was poised to be a little different.

While the Legacy Collections are pretty much superior to this as far as the games go, and Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium has you covered for the arcade games, there's still some bonus content on these you won't find anywhere else -- like Mega Man: Battle & Chase for NA on Mega Man X Collection, which also has the PlayStation version of Mega Man X3 -- something missing from the Legacy Collection.
