When you think of Mega Man, the default image that your mind conjures of Capcom’s Blue Bomber is a plucky android blasting his way through hordes of robots looking to take over the world. That’s a formula that remained firmly in place for years, but if you’re looking for something entirely different in that franchise, then now is a great time to pick up Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection, which is now on sale for $48 for Nintendo Switch and $47 for PS4 at Amazon.
Originally launching for the Game Boy Advance (and Nintendo DS) throughout the early 2000s, the Battle Network series is vastly different to your typical Mega Man experience. Instead of run-and-gun action with challenging platforming, the Battle Network series are story-driven tactical RPGs with random encounters. Set in an alternate timeline where the world has connected itself to a vast network, players can choose to swap between protagonist Lan Hakari and his NetNavi avatar, MegaMan.EXE, and take on hackers, cyber-terrorists, and various other programs up to no good.
