I remember battle network 3 being awesome. Curious if it holds up.

This is the only reason I intend to get this collection. I'll replay the first two also, because both were good, but I remember 3 being phenomenal.

And then 4 sucked so I didn't play the rest. The series clearly peaked with 3. Describing 4 as "raw like the first" is a good way to put it; it's just that the series had refined mechanics with 3 and then, instead of building upon them, went in a completely different direction that didn't quite work. I hated the two different versions having to be linked so that had a lot to do with it too.
