Only the best allowed.
the only good game on it is Sonic R
>>343227010
That's on Gems Collection, not Mega Collection. Mega had the originals, some game gear games and other sega games like Comix Zone.
>>343227010
thats on sonic gems collection on gamecube. mega collection is shit.
Technically a compilation.
>>343227141
>mega collection is shit
>jerks gems collection at the same time
Enjoy your obscure fillershit and game gear games that werent even relevant enough to be on Mega Collection, oh and Sonic CD i guess lmaodoesnt even have Chaotix
I don't have a pic, but Metroid Prime Trilogy is the superior version, and anyone who managed to find it in stores can count themselves lucky.
>>343227118
>>343227141
I wonder why Knuckles Chaotix (as shitty as it was) was left out of Gem's Collection.
>>343226908
>release Mega Collection exclusively on gamecube
>but release Mega Collection Plus on PS2/Xbox, and not gamecube
>but then release Gems Collection on gamecube
>still no big ass Steam compilation that combines the content of both into one
No that humble bundle shit doesn't' count they're still missing a hell of a lot.
>>343227837
SEGA are probably too lazy to make their own 32X emulator
>>343227141

>>343227141
>>343227332
I bought both of them for Gamecube back when they were relavent. They were like $10 used.
My strongest memories of them are of me fucking hating Sonic R and Sonic: The Fighters, but I playing them both to completion and getting Super Sonic just to say I did. Wasn't a good time.
Both collections had awesome extras though. Lots of good concept art to sift through.
>>343228708

Your Mega Collection was missing some stuff desu.
The GOAT collection.

>a depthless throwaway fighter comprised 50% of literally who
>not shit
>>343227118
Ok so, what does the "+" version had that the regular version (for gamecube) didn't.
The game gear ones were in SADX IIRC, something that will NEVER happen again (Like with Animal Crossing games).
The only Sonic game not available for gamecube back then was Knuckles Chaotix? Then again, gems collection had what... CD, Fighters and R?
>>343229552
Oh yeah, Segasonic the hedgehog, hell, that hasn't been available on anything either.
>>343228896
>not compatible with London, 1961
Disgusting.
>>343229552
I think it had 6 GameGear games (with the other 6 appearing in Gems Collection) and some more Archie cover scans and that's about it.
>>343229552
Sonic Mega Collection has:
>Sonic 1
>Sonic 2
>Sonic 3
>Blue Sphere
>Knuckles in Sonic 2
>Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and Knuckles
>Sonic & Knuckles
>Sonic 3D Blast
>Sonic Spinball
>Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine
>Flicky
>Ristar
Mega Collection Plus has:
>literally all that
>The Ooze
>Comix Zone
>Sonic the Hedgehog (Game Gear)
>Sonic Chaos (Game Gear)
>Sonic Drift (Game Gear)
>Sonic Labyrinth (Game Gear)
>Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine (Game Gear)
>Sonic Blast (Game Gear)
Gems Collection has:
>Sonic CD
>Sonic the Fighters
>Sonic R
>Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (Game Gear)
>Sonic the Hedgehog Spinball (Game Gear)
>Sonic the Hedgehog: Triple Trouble (Game Gear)
>Sonic Drift 2 (Game Gear)
>Tails' Skypatrol (Game Gear)
>Tails Adventure (Game Gear)
Like you said, all 12 Game Gear games were in SADX, they were just split between Mega+/Gems Collection when those released.
Gems Collection was supposed to have Knuckles Chaotix and SegaSonic, but they cited emulation issues for the former and control scheme issues with the latter.
>>343229037
The stuff missing from the GC Mega Collection was on the GC release of Adventure.
I heard pic related was borked as fuck, how were the other PS2 compilations? (Jak, Sly, Etc)

>>343229552
>Ok so, what does the "+" version had that the regular version (for gamecube) didn't.
A bunch of Gamegear games that were already in Sonic Adventure DX, The Ooze and Comix Zone, save states, and the bonuses were updated with stuff from newer games.
You weren't missing much.
>>343230260
Actually I forgot to add, Gems has Vectorman 1 and Vectorman 2.
Which are 10/10.
>>343230409
Shit was solid, but Rachet 3's render audio messed up so cutscenes were mute.
Jak and Dax compilation was high quality iirc. Didn't fuck with Sly yet.
>>343226908
I would give anything for a compilation of this caliber of the arcade SFII and III games.
>>343230654
I still need to get around to buying that even though I already own every game on it through virtual console.
>>343229082
>literally a repackage of HD Collection + MGS4
>MGS1/VR are digital
>you still have to switch the discs for MGS1
The PS2 was a goldmine for these kinds of games, Atari Anthology, Midway Arcade Treasures, King of Fighters 2002/2003.
>>343230396
This sounds like funeral music. It's sad but at the same time, go on living life
>>343226908

>>343231012
I've never thought of KoF 2002 (UM) as a compilation. Makes sense though
>>343231012
I have all of the PS2 classic console/arcade/company collections released in the US.
I'm a complete shill for those things. It helps that almost all can be obtained for $5.
>>343231219
throwing up the L for that LONGO gang
>>343231341
No, Anon.
2002 and 2003 were released seperately first and then later 2002/2003 together as a compilation.
>>343231654
Huh never played KoF back in the day so I never knew that.
Shame all those later NEO GEO ports never came stateside. MoTW on PS2 would have been great
>>343226908
>Only the best allowed.
Boo. Well this one was neat and is available on PSN if you want your Sanic 1 & 2 fix on your PSP/Vita. Nice title screen too.
>>343227939
Just buy the steam Genesis bundle. It lacks the shitty game gear games, but at least you get good games along with the main classic sonics.
Tails Adventure deserves more love.
>>343233029
The emulator they are using is kinda shitty thou.
>>343227939
SEGA are dumb
Eight Midway arcade racers in one package. Pretty good
>>343234324
Weakest of the three.
>>343226908
There was a plus version? Now that I think about it some games were locked on the normal gamecube version I had
>>343236749
see: >>343230260 for what you missed
This kinda counts I guess.
Compilation of virtual versions of real tables.
Love me some pinball.
>>343226908Thirdbest CD of my life
I loved playing Gems Collection and unlocking the artwork and music remixes.
>>343226908
The gallery theme was comfy as fuck
>>343227010
firstly that's gems
secondly you're a dipshit because CD is amazing and The Fighters is underrated as fuck whereas R is, while kinda fun, not that good.
>>343230260
I think Mega Collection was emulated better compared to Plus, though. Only issue was the music was pitched down slightly and some of the FM samples were different. Plus seemed to emulate a bit rougher in comparison. Plus, I perferred Mega Collection's features outside the games compared to Plus' -- they actually put detail into each picture, sometimes commenting a bit, and the movies weren't just all Sonic Heroes stuff.
>>343226908
Excellent update to classics all in one package.
>>343240018
It's a shame the 25th anniversary release of it was such a cheap, lazy piece of shit that just ported All-Stars without adding anything else.

>>343233221
Absolutely. Its only crime was being a Game Gear game and thus doomed to obscurity. What's worse is that it probably gets lumped together with "those shitty cash grab GG Sonic games". Criminal.
I think it totally deserved to be on the Genesis. That game plus the standard Classic Sonic momentum based physics would be GOAT. I'm actually shocked that the Sonic fanbase hasn't autismed a remake of Tails Adventures into existence, or even a ROM hack of some kind.
>>343226908
Sonic dreams collection
I remember looking at the Comic Book section thinking "Jesus what the fuck are these things?"
>>343228258
Wasn't bad, actually. You just use the jump button and the control stick. Wasn't like trying to do Megaman X on a Gamecube controller, that was more difficult. Granted I would have preferred a good d-pad, but then even PS2 was missing that.
>>343229336
>50 literally who
>Not even knowing who Amy, Espio, and Fang are
You aren't really a Sonic fan, are you
>>343239707
The Fighters sucks hard, dude
what are you smoking
>>343244418
Ideally the game could be remade in the Retro Engine. Sonic cd and Sonic 1-2 have already been remade in this manner.
>>343245184
Fighters was fine if you weren't going in expecting it to have the depth of Street Fighter 2. A fun little romp with a bunch of Sonic characters. Really, you couldn't expect much more from it than that.
>>343244664
>tfw every single comic in that extras section was now retconned
>>343229375
I could never find this thing. I saw plenty of the PSP version, though.
Fuck the new collection.
>>343246319
Sm4sh made me love the GCN version's button configuration.
>>343246319
The new collection should have had 1-10 and MM&B. And better emulation.
Fucking greedy, lazy Capcom Jews.
>>343246250
That one is pretty cheap and easy to get a PS2 copy.
The hard ones to get on PS2 are Samurai Shodown Anthology, Metal Slug Anthology and The King of Fighters: Orochi Collection.
>>343246319
The new Mega Man collection has less games included
>>343230917
>you still have to switch the discs for MGS1
No you don't
Well, that part is still there, but the game recognizes that you don't have to switch it physically because it's impossible
Also, MGS1 implemented the changing control sockets for the wireless PS3 controller which was still cool
>>343246319
The buttons made me fucking furious. They had them the opposite of what they should have been.
>>343247237
>No you don't
Yes you do whiteboi
I bought back in 2009 when it came to the PSN store and half way it told me to switch the fucking discs
>>343246319
britbong here, i have a totally unplayed ps2 copy of this that i ordered off amazon when i was a dumb kid who didn't know about region locked games
still depresses me looking at it and i have no idea what to do with it
How's the Devil May Cry collection for ps3?
>>343247552
I beat MGS1 last year, the digital release of the game, when I got my code from the MGS HD collection
And I had no such problems
It told me to switch fucking discs but the prompt goes away when you load up your file after that
>>343247912
I got the 360 version. It's pretty good. DMC 1 shows its age a bit and is fairly tough (still haven't gotten past the second Nelo Angelo fight), 3 is great. Haven't played 2 yet.
Still waiting for the Xbox One to make most of its collections and compilations backwards-compatible. I have a bunch I've been itching to replay.

>There will never be a decent Mega Man collection
Anniversary Collection had a ton of emulation issues and missing features, as did the X collection
Legacy Collection has so little content and the menus are college freshman design class tier
Zero collection was alright, but could have done so much more (Using the anniversary soundtracks instead of reusing the shitty GBA sound chip, or included the ZX games with the features that required the Zero games to unlock built in)
There's nothing for BN, Starforce, or Legends
I would pay an insane amount for a huge, ornate collectible box compilation with every single Mega Man title. Like, literally hundreds
