Capcom is putting out Mega Man X Legacy Collection 1 + 2 this month. If you find the games too difficult, you’ll be happy to hear that a Rookie Hunter / Easy Mode is included. It can be toggled in-game as well as in the main menu.
When the mode is enabled, the damage taken will be reduced by half. Also, in X4 to X8, you won’t have to deal with insta-deaths from spikes and bottomless pits.

Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Today, Capcom started the pre-load option for Okami HD on the Switch eShop. This applies to both North America and Europe. If you plan on downloading the game, you’ll need 9.1GB of free space.
Below are a few screenshots:
Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate missing from the North American Switch eShop
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate does have a listing on the European eShop. But in North America, that’s no longer the case. The page is missing, meaning you can’t pre-load the game in North America.
We have a feeling that this is just a minor mix-up. Capcom should put the page back before launch, and with the pre-load option. Even if that doesn’t happen, you should be able to purchase the digital version upon release.
Thanks to Nao★Mi (Rikaria) for the tip.

Capcom has shared some brand new information about Mega Man 11. Along with a new Robot Master, we have details on new modes.
Blast Man is the next Robot Master officially introduced. The boss “hops around the room while slinging explosives everywhere in his attempt to turn Mega Man into scrap metal.” Before heading to Blast Man’s lair, you’ll need to navigate through the ruined remains of a theme park and movie studio hybrid.

Mega Man X Legacy Collection removes Guns N’ Roses references, aligned with original Japanese version
Posted on 7 years ago by Bobby in News, Switch | 0 comments
Next month, the Mega Man X Legacy Collection will be launching on the Switch. However, one of the more questionable design choices will be undone for this release.
Mega Man X5 was localized for the Americas in 2001, but instead of naming its robot bosses as per usual, they were given names in reference to Guns N’ Roses band members. Capcom has decided that the collections will have the traditional names for these bosses, which longtime fans will surely appreciate. The community was not too pleased with this unconventional decision in Mega Man X5, but their displeasure did not go unnoticed!
A Capcom representative gave more details courtesy of GameSpot:
“In our mission to make these collections an authentic Mega Man X experience, we took the opportunity to better align the naming of the Mega Man X5 Mavericks across all regions for better narrative cohesion across the series, making the names more aligned with the original Japanese version release. We hope that fans appreciate our intent to unify the Mega Man X Maverick-naming convention all these years later.”
