As if the Mega Man 11 announcement and the Mega Man X Collection announcement wasn't enough for Mega Man fans, now there's something extra for Nintendo Switch owners to get excited about.

It's time to switch things up. Mega Man Legacy Collection 1 and 2 are coming to Nintendo Switch in 2018! Tune in at https://t.co/qn8POJ2KIj for more! #MegaMan30 pic.twitter.com/WRQTTiULuW

Both Mega Man Legacy Collection compilations, which collect the first ten main series Mega Man games, are now set to come to Nintendo Switch. The first Legacy Collection released back in 2015, a collection that pleased us here at Shacknews. The second Legacy Collection released earlier this year and felt a little lesser, but nonetheless was deemed passable here at Shacknews.

The Switch version of the original Mega Man Legacy Collection is slated to receive a special "rewind" feature, similar to another Capcom compilation, The Disney Afternoon Collection. Those who already own the Mega Man Legacy Collection on PS4, Xbox One, and PC will also get this feature, via a free update.

More details on the Switch versions of the Mega Man Legacy Collections are expected to be revealed soon.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
