Mega Man Legacy Collection[Note 1] is a compilation of singleplayer side view scrolling platform games developed by Digital Eclipse Software and published by Capcom. It is the first part of the Mega Man Legacy Collection, and is followed by Mega Man Legacy Collection 2.
The game is an enhanced compilation of several classic Mega Man titles for the NES, and consists of Mega Man[Note 2], Mega Man 2[Note 3], Mega Man 3[Note 4], Mega Man 4[Note 5], Mega Man 5[Note 6] and Mega Man 6[Note 7]. Players can switch between the English and Japanese releases of all games by changing the compilation's language.

The game was released on August 25, 2015.
The included games has sprite flickering and slowdowns which were present in the original NES versions[1][2], and an update released on December 11, 2018 added a Turbo Mode function to mitigate those issues.[3]

Resolution and scaling
- Game is rendered at 1920x1080, other resolutions are scaled anamorphically from that using bilinear scaling.
This will also effect on TV and Monitor filters. - The main gameplay is 256x240. Overscan area is cropped out and rest is upscaled into 956x896 pixel-perfect with nearest neighbor.
- The game has three scaling modes: Original, Full and Wide.
All modes will stretch the earlier resolution using bilinear scaling as following:
- Original stretches the game horizontally into 4:3 aspect ratio, resulting 1195x896 resolution.
- Full stretches the game vertically to fill the space, then horizontally to stretch into 4:3 aspect ratio, resulting anamorphic 1440x1080 resolution.
- Wide simply stretch the game to fit the whole 1920x1080 area.
Game running in 4:3 resolution. Main gameplay is first pillarboxed to fit 16:9 aspect ratio of the game which is then letterboxed to make the game fit 4:3 aspect ratio window.
