This is in addition to chip, style, and program trading (which will only be supported in <em>Mega Man Battle Network 3<\/em> &#8220;and beyond&#8221;). As previously confirmed, the collection series will also have &#8220;over 180 songs&#8221; to listen to, as well as &#8220;over 1,000 images&#8221; to peruse in a gallery.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.capcom-games.com\/megaman\/exe\/en-us\/\">You can pre-order it now<\/a> on PS4, PC (Steam) and Switch, via a $60 bundle that includes both collections (the physical version has &#8220;one game card&#8221; if you were wondering). <strong>Individual collections will be available &#8220;separately at launch&#8221; for $39.99 each<\/strong>. In the meantime, here&#8217;s some more info, and a recap of what each collection actually entails.<\/p>\n<p>When this was announced it was completely unexpected, but I&#8217;m stoked this happened. My original copies of every game are readily available in every collection, but this series deserves to live on through a new generation.\u00a0While Capcom is no stranger to pushing out\u00a0<em>Mega Man<\/em> collections instead of new releases: it&#8217;s good enough for me, so long as said collections actually have a good amount of love and care put into them. So far, this packed\u00a0<em>Legacy Collection<\/em> seems to be heading down the right path.<\/p>\n<h2>Here&#8217;s a look at the online systems revealed this week<\/h2>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-354131 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.destructoid.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2nd-Trailer-Mega-Man-Battle-Network-Legacy-Collection-0-43-screenshot.png'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.destructoid.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2nd-Trailer-Mega-Man-Battle-Network-Legacy-Collection-0-43-screenshot.png?resize=150%2C150\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.destructoid.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2nd-Trailer-Mega-Man-Battle-Network-Legacy-Collection-0-45-screenshot.png'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.destructoid.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2nd-Trailer-Mega-Man-Battle-Network-Legacy-Collection-0-45-screenshot.png?resize=150%2C150\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.destructoid.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2nd-Trailer-Mega-Man-Battle-Network-Legacy-Collection-0-49-screenshot.png'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.destructoid.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2nd-Trailer-Mega-Man-Battle-Network-Legacy-Collection-0-49-screenshot.png?resize=150%2C150\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.destructoid.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2nd-Trailer-Mega-Man-Battle-Network-Legacy-Collection-0-53-screenshot.png'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.destructoid.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2nd-Trailer-Mega-Man-Battle-Network-Legacy-Collection-0-53-screenshot.png?resize=150%2C150\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.destructoid.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2nd-Trailer-Mega-Man-Battle-Network-Legacy-Collection-1-1-screenshot.png'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.destructoid.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2nd-Trailer-Mega-Man-Battle-Network-Legacy-Collection-1-1-screenshot.png?resize=150%2C150\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.destructoid.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2nd-Trailer-Mega-Man-Battle-Network-Legacy-Collection-1-5-screenshot.png'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.destructoid.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2nd-Trailer-Mega-Man-Battle-Network-Legacy-Collection-1-5-screenshot.png?resize=150%2C150\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<h2>Here&#8217;s a new\u00a0<em>Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection<\/em><strong> trailer<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"2nd Trailer - Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ADBHfvEWNNk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer;
