3DS owners have had to wait a little longer than other console owners for Mega Man Legacy Collection, but their patience is being rewarded with 11 special challenge stages which can only be unlocked using the Mega Man amiibo, as well as an all-new golden amiibo figure.
In case you didn't know already, Legacy Collection pulls together the six classic NES outings, as well as offering a challenge mode and a museum of production art and other assets.
The new gold-coloured Mega Man amiibo will launch as part of a special collector's edition of the game.
Mega Man Legacy Collection is released on February 23rd 2016.

That Gold Mega Man amiibo wasn't mentioned in the Europe direct. I assume that it'll be like Gold and Silver Mario and never appear here. Why do you do this to me Nintendo?
Is Golden Mega Man just the US?
I would get this, but the collector's edition...it's a bit too pricey...
There will be a physical version of the game I thought it was just going to be digital?
Like is there really any need?
SIGH
The only Amiibo missing from my collection so far is Gold Mario.... Guess Gold Megaman will be the same!
I wasn't able to watch the direct and can't check the live chat on my phone so I'm relying on articles here to find out what was shown. I gather by the lack of Minecraft news means it's not coming after all?
@OorWullie It's not been announced at the Direct, but it is still coming(probably not today, but soon enough).
$20 for the amiibo, tho?
@SuperWiiU Thanks, strange they didn't mention it though. Aye it's an old title but it's still a pretty big deal.
So, does this confirm a physical copy of the game in the US or will they try some crap like giving us a digital download code with the purchase of the Gold Mega Man?
Just WHY?!
Hoo boy, yet another amiibo I need to collect.
I was planning to get the game anyway, but I hope this amiibo comes to Europe too, it wasn't announced in our Direct.
Umm,I'm not really a gold person, but good luck and happy hunting to everyone searching for him.
I pre-ordered it from Amazon just now, but the box art doesn't clearly state whether or not it contains a physical copy of the games or download codes. There is some writing on the side, but I can't make it out. I suppose I can always cancel or return it if it isn't physical.
@crimsontadpoles Europe gets a LOT that we don't especially in terms of bundles and earlier releases. I guess it's only fair for us to get the bolster for the second time
Meh, give me a Mega Man X Collection that includes MMX7 & MM8 then I'm golden.
Sadly, the challenge mode of this collections is pretty worthless for anyone who played the games before, as it is just a bunch of rooms from the game in a fixed order and not new content.
So, with the entire VC ensemble on my 3DS already, this collection is bloat.
^ Yup, already have this on Steam and not buying it again. Now, get out that cancelled colorized GB Megaman collection and I'll bite.
That gold amiibo is just a cheap, tacky, cash-grab—as are all the gold and silver variations, imo.
I would have been far more impressed if it had been a differently coloured costume skin, as though he'd gained one of the powers. Or if it had been Proto Man, or something like that.
if that special edition with the gold amiibo had been announced for my neck of the woods I'd pre order it straight away. Oh well I guess we in the PAL territories can't have it all.
Must have with that Megaman Gold Amiibo.
@Undead_terror
True. People could just buy him and paint him.
@MeloMan
I like your idea better.
@Hordak Yes, I checked and we are getting a physical release too. That makes me really happy. But what am I gonna do with a second Mega Man amiibo that I don't want? Maybe they'll have a physical version without it.
I will gladly crawl over all of your bloody corpses to get a Golden Mega Man.
Got my gold Mega Man amiibo preordered! I'm DETERMINED to have a complete amiibo collection.
