tl;dw: because the Japanese and English versions of BN6 originally had different content, they didnt update the english rewards for a sidequest in the Legacy Collection, causing one of the chips for 100% completion to be permanently missable. To bypass it, you need to switch the game to Japanese for the sidequest "Virus Battler" to get the chip, then switch back to english.

Hope this helps you Battle Network players >_>

That's only for 100% though right? You can still finish the game otherwise

I would legitimately be angry if they retranslated the games. The silly translation is part of the fun of these games

Sometimes the bad translations are fun but I usually prefer more accurate translations.

we use it for memes lol and apparently the devs realized it and left it in

they even
left in some glitches for use in single player mode for fun but not multiplayer for balance

Yeah I guess that was the wrong term. It permanently messes up your save file from 100%?

It's just a permanent missable due to a glitch.

A softlock means you must reset the game or load a save to continue. If you have to start over from the beginning that's a game breaker.

Apparently it's not even completely missable, people are saying if you compare folders with someone who has the chip online, you can buy it for yourself?

Though RIP anyone who doesn't have NSO and bought this on Switch.

Hopefully Capcom patches it and maybe even makes it a download chip so people can just add it to their game like with the other download chips

It's a softlock towards 100%ing I guess, since it's bypassable, even if janky. That's a shame but at least it's a sign that they implemented new things

I think there was a glitch with the Prism chip that let you do absurd amount of damage. Like one shotting everything in the game type damage

less of a glitch and more like it work off of several powers up and prism matching the damage with it

it involved the heat spread program advance on a grass stage with prism

I don't trust localizers nowadays to keep in the jokes. They'd sanitize the hell out of these games.

That's just Disco Inferno, a regular strat you can do.

The actual bug is in BN2, where if you throw one of the TreeBomb chips onto a Prism, the seed from the TreeBomb will trigger Prism damage on every single frame for several seconds, instantly deleting anything around the Prism.

1 is just...primitive. It's not a bad game but 2 and 3 were much improved.

In fact, if you want to play 1, try the fan translation of Operate Shooting Star (or "Operate Star Force" as they localized it). It's still not quite up to par with the sequels but it includes several quality of life fixes over the original game that make it a better choice.

The translation / misspelling is garbage. The text font also looks weirdly crisp and there don't appear to be many visual options that I saw. This does seem lazy tbqh
