I've heard mixed reviews of them, but no matter, I still want them.
Anyway, ABF, you ARE aware that MM1-7 and the Arcade games take up, at the most, probably like 20MB of a 4 GB DVD aren't you? MM8 would take up the most, but even that didn't take up an entire CD when it was released on the PS. That easily leaves over 3 gigs, and that's including the emulation software to run things. Take up another gig for the artwork and all the music remixes (and that's being liberal), and you have 2 gigs to store movies. One of them being the producer interview, that still leaves room for a bit more episodes of the show than they have. Anyway, my point is the only game that takes up any sort of significant space is MM8. The rest of those games don't take up ANYTHING siginficant. I mean, Nintendo could easily cram every single NES game they ever made and still have an extreme amount of space left over on one of THEIR disks. It's just FMVs and such that actually take up any sort of space. No matter though, honestly I didn't care for the anime anyway.
Anything you hear about why they didn't include them is just people defending Capcom's decision to make more money off a later collection :D. I don't care, almost all the original series is enough for me. I mean, the X series may be a spinoff, but it's still clearly set in the same world and not some alternate reality or something. The question is exactly what happened to the original Megaman, and Bass for that matter.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
