Ditto 😅 Hopefully if there is a Legends Legacy Collection, we would need to buy the ****outta it. To hopefully show Capcom that this series is still well loved..... I mean it did work for Classic Megaman 😅 Then again, it didn't work for X 😢
Megaman Legends is the best series of games in the franchise, I'm surprised they stopped making these. Cel-shading is perfect for the art style, and these old games even hold up today with their artistic charm and story.
As an avid legends fan from childhood, I played the games when they were new, legends 3 was a travesty. The entire premise they were launching was 0% what I wanted from 3. I don’t want to play other people. I don’t care about new characters like that. I’m there for megaman, roll and the bonnes. I understand teisel has to be recast but that doesn’t change my stance. I’m glad that the 3 they were gonna give us got cancelled and while I doubt we ever get 3 now, I hope if we do they scrap every bit of what they had and start over.
3:33 It's funny how serious he looks after asking for a kiss. 6:51 That camera transition looks pretty dynamic. As far as I remember, I don't recalled such use of camera in the main game. 7:03 The use of anime FX background is pretty new as well, which again, don't recalled ever been used in the main game. Overall, this Episode 1 story contents has strong anime experience and presentation that feel missing in the main game.
On the back of the game case, there is a photo of a spot never seen in the actual game, and I always wondered about it as a kid. Over 20 years later, I finally am learning where that mysterious screenshot came from.
The fact that the cutscene for joining Tron is the "Theme of Love" from the first game is hilarious! This is an awesome find and I had no idea about any of this for the series. I just want my trilogy collection remaster already!
"It kinda gave me a Saturday Morning Cartoon kinda vibe . . ." my brother in Christmas, that is the *entire* appeal of the MegaMan Legends/Dash series in a nutshell.
0:40 - Oh my god! You actually just made me realize that the very first ever game that I ever played on the Playstation when I was 4 was the Mega Man Legends 2 demo disc. I remember it being so hard and only having 3 bosses! I eventually had to give the disc back to my neighbor because I guess it was borrowed and I had asked what the game was, and they said " Uh its a Megaman game". They had also let me borrow Mega Man X4 seeing as I liked Mega Man and eventually got my grandparents to buy me a Mega Man game. My grandparents never actually buying me Mega Man Legends 2 or Mega Man X4, but buying me every other Mega Man game in a random order. I got Mega Man 8, then Mega Man X5, then Megaman X6, Mega Man Legends, then finally Mega Man X4 on the Playstation. Fast forward 15 years and I have played basically every Mega Man out there that has released in the US except Mega Man Legends 2, so I finally bought it and I thought I had deja vu because I had vaguely remembered fighting these bosses before, but I chalked it up to it to my brain being nostalgic and giving me fake memories. I typed all of this just to say THANK YOU!!! All this time I was looking for my White Whale of a game that, coincidently, was the last game in the entire franchise that I played, and it felt so off because I played the motherflippen DEMO!!!
This reminds me a little bit of all the MGS side content. Weird stuff that didn’t make the final game and a way for the devs to have some fun while testing models and tools.
That whole scene with Tron and Trigger just "in love" and Trigger just opens fire was too damn funny Also demo discs were soo badass when they started coming out at the end of 01. I at one point with help of my cousin had a huge collection from the 01-04 at one point cause we both loved em. It really was cool to play a lot of games as demos to go on to see them explode with success and all the cool behind the scene videos. I'll forever be thankful for experiences like being 9 years old in 2001 when playing the oct 01 demo with cool boarders 2001 and hearing fear factory's genetic blueprint song for the first time. Being a dumb kid and never buying cool boarders 2001 I didn't know the name of the song or artist and that song would pop into my head from then until I got around to finding it as a young adult and getting into fear factory lol. And then you get gems like this. Ty for sharing.
Nice, if a Legends Legacy Collection ever releases, i would love if they added this in the actual game. Side note: Christ Megaman Volnutt is a bit much huh? Peeping in on Roll changing and while she showers. He didnt look away when Tron got her clothes burned off. Stared at Sera when she was also nude. And now he's straight up asking the girls he rescue for kisses? Sheesh 😅😂
I still find it interesting that Rock Volnutt has a blue eyecolor instead of green like in the game. Not going on a Sonic style debate here but I always found it confusing. Wish I had picked up Tron Bonne when I had the chance, getting the game on disc these days is downright impossible.
BASED, I love when people bring up Prolouge, it would be awesome if Capcom included it as a bonus in Legends collection. Since they will probably never finish the story to this series, we can only assume the Tron ending in this demo is canon (the best ending)
I was never good at playing the main Megaman games and then I played the Legends series and instantly fell in love. I really miss these games and I hope we can a port, remake or sequel one day.
Raocow played this before his current lp of legends 2 I really hope for a legacy collection they include this demo, along with a new game plus, and let you switch weapons from the pause menu
Dude if I was a younger man coming off that first Mega Man Legends high, I’d scrounge up enough money to order it from Japan just to realize I can’t even play it because of region lock outs 😂
I remember hearing about the legends 1 demo disc that included a fair bit of unused content, but I’ve never heard of this demo disc for legends 2! Probably because it was a Japan exclusive lol
Wow I've never heard of this demo/prequel! I miss this series so much. And I agree that game demo discs were amazing back in the day! I still have the one that came with my PSX: it had demos for Spyro, Metal Gear Solid, and Brave Fencer Musashi ❤
Sheesh, I didn't even know how different this demo was compared to what the west got! Great coverage though, thank you for showing all that came with it!
I didn't know about the chapter 1 stuff till I got the mega man legends psp collections, widescreen was nice too. Was the first psp games I installed on a modded PS3. Was cool to play on a tv with a PS3 controller for the time. Wish the psp editions had made it to the usa in English, but never did.
I remember coming across a random video that showed the last part with subtitles a long time ago, I think it might still be on TH-cam as well, and the unreleased city appeared on Capcom's V Jump 1998 show, which a video also just randomly appeared recently on TH-cam, what a coincidence. For me seeing all this put together is crazy though, never got the full context of what his episode was, thanks for the video and explanation.
0:25 I had that same exact demo disc! It came with my PS1 all the way back then! 😂 There’s a code behind two of the screens that’ll flip over if you press L1/R1 or something, and you’ll launch a bonus demo if you enter it. Thanks for the blast from the past, I played the hell out of that demo disc as a kid lol
The demo you showed for the dungeon seems to have become the Megaman Legends 2 License upgrade gauntlet, with some changes, as some of those parts in the demo has been moved to the Frog dungeon, and some are parts of the underwater level. I remember because of the enemy placements and the cramped space where that tall shock enemy appears.
Its really a shame that capcom hasn't capitalized on this series... Megaman Legends is my favorite and I wish so badly to replay it but it hasn't even been ported ANYWHERE. We also were robbed of the 3rd installment..
wow, i remember vaguely hearing about this. except i recall a lack of context or detail. for example i recall being shown that Tronn & Volnutt cutscene and was told its a removed cutscene from Legends 2, and i just never looked in to it cuz it was a LONG time ago and i didnt use the internet for research yet.😅 also fuck yeah Duckstation. it is criminally overlooked when it is the best PS1 emulator i have seen. i do believe this is the first mention ive seen of it outside of a twitter post from a youtube reviewer i follow.
"Cries in anime" was dead at that 🤣. Man if ONLY a legends 3 came out. I actually bought a 3ds day one because I heard legends 3 was going to be on it. Never happened obviously. Streets of rage 4 came out and Guilty Gear made a come back a few years back so dreams come true. Maybe one day. Thanks for sharing this with us. Great video
Are you kidding me!!?!?!I Mega Man Legends 1&2 are among my favorite games and Im only now finding out about this "Part 1" of Legends 2??? I even researched that mysterious image on the back of its case once or twice and came up with nothing! This should not drive me as crazy as it should but here we are XD
Question: How much do you think an unopened compeltely still sealed copy of Megaman Legends 2 and also a still sealed copy of Misadventures of Tron Bonne go for, because I found them in a garage sale and bought them for $3 each
Of course, you knew I'd be reviewing Tron Bonne later this week, so you just had to steal my thunder random! Curse you random person on the internet for foiling my plans! In all seriousness, my copy unfortunately was bought from a rental store, so I don't have the demo disc to begin with- I'd only heard about it secondhand, so I was under the impression all versions had the prologue content. This makes the pain of not having the demo sting a little less (though it does still pain me that I'll never have a complete copy of MoTB).
3:45 Okay, that was clever! 6:12 You got to give the ServBots their props. They may have their dumb moments, but still cute as ever. 7:31 They way she just pops out all starfish like is hilarious!
Damn man, I had totally forgotten about the demo games, what a time, it even makes me feel old.🙃 How sad that we were robbed of this, although it makes me laugh to think that surely some Japanese children would have been confused by that misleading title. Certainly a strange name choice right there.🤔
0:00 for me…not that much! But it’s a great 3D megaman game (I still can’t believe Capcom cancelled the third game entry of this series, even the demo of the game! I hope one day they gonna have a chance to make it somehow)
Deep down inside if they made legends 3 I want some gameplay of megaman being part of the Bonnes for a while. Kinda like a being part of the bad guys to gain their trust until it's time to give up the act kinda thing going on. It would also give us more of an insight of the Bonne family even more you know.
Wait a second, megaman legends...half life...megaman legends 2...half life 2...megaman legends 2 episode 1...half life 2 episode 1...I've been on the internet long enough to know a conspiracy when I see one, so I will just go ahead and call it out here, are Valve and Capcom going to team up and release the Blue Box which will contain Megaman Legends 3 and Half Life 3?
Wait the frickin minute!!! I actually have this the whole time and not realizing it!!? Omg, I open my game and IT DOES HAVE THIS DISK!! lol what a fail😂
This vid makes me yearn for a Legends 3 even more
And still didn't came
Ditto 😅
Hopefully if there is a Legends Legacy Collection, we would need to buy the ****outta it. To hopefully show Capcom that this series is still well loved..... I mean it did work for Classic Megaman 😅
Then again, it didn't work for X 😢
A group of fans will make it eventually
Same here. 😥
I think we might have to make it if we want it at this point...
The cutscene of Megaman and Tron frolicking while he shoots and probably causes havoc is fantastic.
it's sublime
Hi
I've literally never heard of this extra disc, thank you for bringing that good MegaMan Legends nostalgia. Love the vid, subbed
Megaman Legends is the best series of games in the franchise, I'm surprised they stopped making these. Cel-shading is perfect for the art style, and these old games even hold up today with their artistic charm and story.
i wish they could continue with MM legends 3. the development was completely phenomenal and i really wished they werent axed.
As an avid legends fan from childhood, I played the games when they were new, legends 3 was a travesty. The entire premise they were launching was 0% what I wanted from 3. I don’t want to play other people. I don’t care about new characters like that. I’m there for megaman, roll and the bonnes. I understand teisel has to be recast but that doesn’t change my stance. I’m glad that the 3 they were gonna give us got cancelled and while I doubt we ever get 3 now, I hope if we do they scrap every bit of what they had and start over.
they could easily make it for the switch now 😢
@@Someguyonline7732why did Tiesel need to be recast?
streetfighter x tekken shouldve been you cue to stop expecting this. they flat out made fun of us to our faces for liking megaman.
@1GmO2 the English voice actor was charged with having CP.
I like tied up Roll more than I should.
3:33 It's funny how serious he looks after asking for a kiss.
6:51 That camera transition looks pretty dynamic. As far as I remember, I don't recalled such use of camera in the main game.
7:03 The use of anime FX background is pretty new as well, which again, don't recalled ever been used in the main game.
Overall, this Episode 1 story contents has strong anime experience and presentation that feel missing in the main game.
On the back of the game case, there is a photo of a spot never seen in the actual game, and I always wondered about it as a kid. Over 20 years later, I finally am learning where that mysterious screenshot came from.
This jus got translated and extra
News Just in!!! This Game just got fully translated by Hilltop!
Link!?
The fact that the cutscene for joining Tron is the "Theme of Love" from the first game is hilarious!
This is an awesome find and I had no idea about any of this for the series. I just want my trilogy collection remaster already!
"It kinda gave me a Saturday Morning Cartoon kinda vibe . . ." my brother in Christmas, that is the *entire* appeal of the MegaMan Legends/Dash series in a nutshell.
More of a slice of life type of anime with a lot of action.
0:40 - Oh my god! You actually just made me realize that the very first ever game that I ever played on the Playstation when I was 4 was the Mega Man Legends 2 demo disc.

All this time I was looking for my White Whale of a game that, coincidently, was the last game in the entire franchise that I played, and it felt so off because I played the motherflippen DEMO!!!
Omg, i spent ages looking for that place in the box art when I was a kid. Dude thank you, you literally just gave me closure I forgot i even needed.
As someone who ships Volnutt with Tron, that "But Thou Must!" moment felt like I was being trolled.
This reminds me a little bit of all the MGS side content. Weird stuff that didn’t make the final game and a way for the devs to have some fun while testing models and tools.
i miss playstation underground disc and discovering passwords to access hidden demos from that era. truly a unique experience
5:47 MY LEG!!
😂😂 Is that what she yelled or was that a spongebob reference?
There was also a Mega Man legends phone game no one played, Big 5 Island Adventure.
That whole scene with Tron and Trigger just "in love" and Trigger just opens fire was too damn funny
Also demo discs were soo badass when they started coming out at the end of 01. I at one point with help of my cousin had a huge collection from the 01-04 at one point cause we both loved em.

Porn magazine collecting and bird shooting as well.
To be fair, he was pretty much in shock when Tronne turned up fully nude. The rest, well, he's a healthy young... robot lad. Lets keep it at that.
the PSX Underground discs got me into Armored Core and Tomba.. I played those demos over and over again
5:29 😂 This is actually quite funny!
Weird most demos we have in Japanese games are in prologue format of something bigger like MGS: Ground Zeroes, Gran Turismo 5 prologue and this!
The cutscene animation and the crab robots movements are so fluid. I love this demo, it needs to be a part of the actual game.
As a diehard fan of Mega Man Legends, I never knew this existed!
I still find it interesting that Rock Volnutt has a blue eyecolor instead of green like in the game. Not going on a Sonic style debate here but I always found it confusing.
Wish I had picked up Tron Bonne when I had the chance, getting the game on disc these days is downright impossible.
I remember watching The Great Clement play this, it looks really fun 😀
Same
The bloodstains under tron was unironically one of the funniest things I’ve see. This week
It's such a shame that a build of Legends 3 never got leaked. IT HAS TO EXIST!
BASED, I love when people bring up Prolouge, it would be awesome if Capcom included it as a bonus in Legends collection. Since they will probably never finish the story to this series, we can only assume the Tron ending in this demo is canon (the best ending)
I believe there is now a translation patch for this😊
The MM Legends universe is sheer happiness and fond memories. They could get a lot o money by making a remastered collection for Switch/Steam.
PSP version comes with this episode 1, too... But I didn't know there never was a US release for PSP version until now.
Incredible! Thanks for covering this. Had no idea. But I need MORE! MORE MML!!!
ill always wonder where was the back picture of th cd case!!! thanks a lot!!! great vid
I was never good at playing the main Megaman games and then I played the Legends series and instantly fell in love. I really miss these games and I hope we can a port, remake or sequel one day.
I have good news for you! The DEMO just got translated by Hilltop!
i still remember buying a 3ds to play legends 3 and capcom said there wasnt enough fan support......
Flash forward to April 2024 & it has an English translation now!
I think I might be the second person to say this. 😅
That's awesome, thanks for sharing :)
Raocow played this before his current lp of legends 2
I really hope for a legacy collection they include this demo, along with a new game plus, and let you switch weapons from the pause menu
And all this time I thought episode 1 was the first game...😮
A beautiful remake of these games is all I wish for
Dude if I was a younger man coming off that first Mega Man Legends high, I’d scrounge up enough money to order it from Japan just to realize I can’t even play it because of region lock outs 😂
Long live Mega Man Legends man.. i really hope capcom releases a collection at least
I remember hearing about the legends 1 demo disc that included a fair bit of unused content, but I’ve never heard of this demo disc for legends 2! Probably because it was a Japan exclusive lol
Almost certain giant Roll was used for the tied up scene!
Giantess Roll I approve
I'm grateful for seeing this never before seen (at least by me) content!
There's an English patch for this game, but I don't think anyone has translated Episode 2 yet.
Wow I've never heard of this demo/prequel! I miss this series so much. And I agree that game demo discs were amazing back in the day! I still have the one that came with my PSX: it had demos for Spyro, Metal Gear Solid, and Brave Fencer Musashi ❤
Nice coverage! Capcom better make Legends Collection next with this demo included. XD
Sheesh, I didn't even know how different this demo was compared to what the west got! Great coverage though, thank you for showing all that came with it!
I didn't know about the chapter 1 stuff till I got the mega man legends psp collections, widescreen was nice too. Was the first psp games I installed on a modded PS3. Was cool to play on a tv with a PS3 controller for the time. Wish the psp editions had made it to the usa in English, but never did.
locking on airships? I just manually aimed knowing the flight paths.
Hearing the apple market music is like being visited by an old friend
Now if only that MML3 press demo would leak…seriously, how has no one found that yet?
I remember coming across a random video that showed the last part with subtitles a long time ago, I think it might still be on TH-cam as well, and the unreleased city appeared on Capcom's V Jump 1998 show, which a video also just randomly appeared recently on TH-cam, what a coincidence.
For me seeing all this put together is crazy though, never got the full context of what his episode was, thanks for the video and explanation.
I got the English version of the demo 2. It’s pretty night and day
Thanks for video. I consider myself a MML fan never knew about this game.
I want this now. I want a remake. 30xx is barely staving off my megaman itch
0:25 I had that same exact demo disc! It came with my PS1 all the way back then! 😂
There’s a code behind two of the screens that’ll flip over if you press L1/R1 or something, and you’ll launch a bonus demo if you enter it. Thanks for the blast from the past, I played the hell out of that demo disc as a kid lol
And here I thought you were going to talk about the Japanese exclusive MegaMan Legends phone game!
The demo you showed for the dungeon seems to have become the Megaman Legends 2 License upgrade gauntlet, with some changes, as some of those parts in the demo has been moved to the Frog dungeon, and some are parts of the underwater level. I remember because of the enemy placements and the cramped space where that tall shock enemy appears.
At this point, getting ML3 demo may be the greatest thing that Capcom could offer
I thought this was going to be about Great Adventure on 5 Islands... how have I never heard of this game?
I love your channel! You're better than most popular youtubers.
I thought your video was gonna talk about the old mobile phone games of Megaman Legends, but im gonna now check out this demo through my Xstation!
I love Kobun/Servbots. My favorite character in MvC2 even if people claim it is a joke character.
Its really a shame that capcom hasn't capitalized on this series... Megaman Legends is my favorite and I wish so badly to replay it but it hasn't even been ported ANYWHERE. We also were robbed of the 3rd installment..
wow, i remember vaguely hearing about this. except i recall a lack of context or detail. for example i recall being shown that Tronn & Volnutt cutscene and was told its a removed cutscene from Legends 2, and i just never looked in to it cuz it was a LONG time ago and i didnt use the internet for research yet.😅
also fuck yeah Duckstation. it is criminally overlooked when it is the best PS1 emulator i have seen.
i do believe this is the first mention ive seen of it outside of a twitter post from a youtube reviewer i follow.
I really want to write something witty here, but I can't think of anything...👍👏
That thumbnail is crazy poor Roll.
"Cries in anime" was dead at that 🤣. Man if ONLY a legends 3 came out. I actually bought a 3ds day one because I heard legends 3 was going to be on it. Never happened obviously. Streets of rage 4 came out and Guilty Gear made a come back a few years back so dreams come true. Maybe one day. Thanks for sharing this with us. Great video
Few days ago this demo got a English translation patch.
Are you kidding me!!?!?!I Mega Man Legends 1&2 are among my favorite games and Im only now finding out about this "Part 1" of Legends 2??? I even researched that mysterious image on the back of its case once or twice and came up with nothing! This should not drive me as crazy as it should but here we are XD
nah the giant roll is someone's well you know
Question: How much do you think an unopened compeltely still sealed copy of Megaman Legends 2 and also a still sealed copy of Misadventures of Tron Bonne go for, because I found them in a garage sale and bought them for $3 each
Not sure about Legends 2 but a sealed NTSC copy of Tron Bonne is one of the more expensive PS1 games because of its limited print run
Of course, you knew I'd be reviewing Tron Bonne later this week, so you just had to steal my thunder random! Curse you random person on the internet for foiling my plans!
In all seriousness, my copy unfortunately was bought from a rental store, so I don't have the demo disc to begin with- I'd only heard about it secondhand, so I was under the impression all versions had the prologue content. This makes the pain of not having the demo sting a little less (though it does still pain me that I'll never have a complete copy of MoTB).
3:45 Okay, that was clever!
6:12 You got to give the ServBots their props. They may have their dumb moments, but still cute as ever.
7:31 They way she just pops out all starfish like is hilarious!
Damn man, I had totally forgotten about the demo games, what a time, it even makes me feel old.🙃
How sad that we were robbed of this, although it makes me laugh to think that surely some Japanese children would have been confused by that misleading title. Certainly a strange name choice right there.🤔
we really need more legends
the one series i will forever loathe capcom for stopping
Mind blown. Thank you
This deserves a remake trilogy
I actually own this and the Japanese version of misadventures of tron bonne
In 5:28....IS THAT REAL???
I mean the 2nd choice though.
When games used to be fun
nice review
0:00 for me…not that much! But it’s a great 3D megaman game (I still can’t believe Capcom cancelled the third game entry of this series, even the demo of the game! I hope one day they gonna have a chance to make it somehow)
Deep down inside if they made legends 3 I want some gameplay of megaman being part of the Bonnes for a while. Kinda like a being part of the bad guys to gain their trust until it's time to give up the act kinda thing going on. It would also give us more of an insight of the Bonne family even more you know.
treasure, difinitely gonna try
Game Demos were the coooolest
So this was essentially the MGS V: Ground Zeros of it's time?
02:19 got me
7:12 loved it
Can you please give me the name of this music plays in the background?! 0:11
I own import version 0f tron and I didn't know this. Lol😂
wild thumbnail
Wait a second, megaman legends...half life...megaman legends 2...half life 2...megaman legends 2 episode 1...half life 2 episode 1...I've been on the internet long enough to know a conspiracy when I see one, so I will just go ahead and call it out here, are Valve and Capcom going to team up and release the Blue Box which will contain Megaman Legends 3 and Half Life 3?
Wait the frickin minute!!! I actually have this the whole time and not realizing it!!?
Omg, I open my game and IT DOES HAVE THIS DISK!! lol what a fail😂
