Most Boneheaded Control Choice - Mega Man Anniversary Collection (GameCube, 2004)


I thought the controls were perfectly fine

Hardest-to-find Work of Greatness - Metroid Prime Trilogy (Wii, 2009)


That's cool. My roommate just gave this to me when he moved out since he didn't have a Wii

For the Gamecube version? Really?

Xbox and PS2 versions are fine, and this isn't talking about those.

arc the lad collection is one of the best purchases ive ever made. Got it 40 dollars complete (and in above average condition) at a video game small business.

The first one is the worst, and isnt anything special, but 2 and 3 are amazing games.

I had no problem with the gamecube controls either,

Mainly cause it's a completely different controller with a completely different feel. Maybe if it was NES controller shaped like the wiimote I would've had a bigger problem with it.

Eh, it's hard for to defend or complain the Gamecube version of MMAC.

On the one hand, yeah, switching the buttons was incredibly stupid, and it led to a lot of problems and needless deaths when I first played it. On the other hand, it only took me one day to get used to it, and they felt completely natural after that. So I can't really disagree when people talk about the control problems, but I also can't say that it matters at all.

probably because they sold it on the Wii as well

also, I actually dislike All-Stars anyway because they messed with SMB and LL's physics way too much

Mario 25th Anniversary Collection


...I still don't get it, personally.

So are they saying because it was released on the Wii it became bad?

I think the 'joke' is that the idea of a Mario collection in and of itself was well-executed in 1991 and then horribly executed in 2010. Or something.

And mark me down as another person who had no problems with the controls to MMAC. Hell, I even played Anniversary Collection and Mega Man Network Transmission (A jumps, B shoots) back to back.

Was the Mario Collection bad because you could get all the games it had on the VC separately for cheaper?

Yeah, without reading the article I assume that SMB All-Stars later becoming the worst has to do with price.

Looking forward to the best JRPG for the price changing when the maybe inevitable P3P/P4G/P5portable HD port comes out for the PS3 or maybe next Playstation console by then.

No love for Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection? That was a ridiculous amount of games on a single disc.

It should be Greatest Compilation With One Fatal Flaw or something.

No Sonic 3 + Knuckles is inexcusable!
