Best bundle Ive seen in ages. Megaman X collection + Ace Attorney collection for $5 is awesome
I’m not familiar with either series. Are these all the games? Or are there other Mega Man or Ace Attorney titles I’d need to buy separately?
Ace Attorney seems complete, including the Investigations and Great spin-offs. Mega Man collection apparently doesn’t have Mega Man 11 (last entry in the OG series) and the bundle doesn’t have the Zero series (4 games), the ZX series (2 games), and the Star Force series (3 games). There’s a separate collection for the Zero series, and maybe the ZX series too. I don’t know about Star Force. Also no Mega Man Legend 1 & 2, no Mega Man X Command Mission, Mega Man Power Battle, but those are different types of games, not the classic 2D platformers. No Zero and ZX is quite a miss though.
Apollo Justice & Investigations are not included, the bundle only includes coupons for them
Dual Destinies, Spirit of Justice, and Professor Layton Vs Phoenix Wright are also missing.
DD and SJ are included in the AJ trilogy.
Seems like too many games missing for $35 tbh.
Like, most of those are games I could play for free on an emulator.
That might be underselling how big the series is - not to mention that many of them have been completely re-done in HD so they’re no longer on GBA graphics.
These are generally pretty big games. A lot of “mystery” games are about one mystery, but every AA game has at least 4, the last of each game being a giant epic journey.
So I’m not into megs man, platformer shooters are super not my thing. But after loving Paradise Killer I think detective games just might be. I’ve never played any of the Ace games, any suggestions on which is a good entry point to the series? Is there an overall story of are the games self contained?
They are mostly self contained but I would still recommend going through them in order since there are recurring characters. Start from the Pheonix Wright Ace Attorney Trilogy.
