Requires good reading. And to know how to read English.

The games are not translated into French language in this version.

(While he was in Mega Man Battle Network 5 Double Team DS)

The powers of friendship and mutual aid are constantly highlighted in games.

Perseverance and courage are also encouraged.

The difficulty is very progressive and restarts with each title.

You can start with any title, you will find this easy at first, and towards the end many challenges await you.

It takes a lot of reflex.

Juste besoin d'acheter une fois le jeu.

There are unnecessary pre-order bonuses, which will be available later for purchase for other users.

Local game modes

An elaborate story mode for each of the 6 games.

A gallery mode that allows you to consult the drawings and promotional material created for each of the games at the time.

Online Game Modes

It is possible to fight against opponents embodying their own version of MegaMan in each of the 6 games whether in part ranked or not.

It is also possible to exchange BattleChips between players.

 

Unfortunately there is no crossplay, so if you play on Nintendo Switch, you will not be able to play with PC or Playstation players, and vice versa.

Too bad to divide the user pool into 3 platforms and 6 games (10 versions).
