64 is downgraded in every way from looking worse to running worse, sounding worse and ultimately playing worse. Play Legends so you can follow up with tron bonne and legends 2.

Legends
64 is a neat curiosity, play it later if you loved the series

PS1:
>original version
>worse controls due to fewer control options compared to the N64
>much better draw distances
>refractors look more opaque
>no easy diddiculty mode, missing some other unlockables introduced with the N64 version
>overall better framerate
>has typical issues associated with PS1 games, e.g. polygon distortion, crooked lines, no bilinear filtering, etc.
N64:
>worse framerate
>bad draw distances
>better controls
>refractors are translucent
>no polygon jitter, filtered textures
>unlockable easy mode and a few other things, acquired by beating the game within a time limit
>still has the PS1 on the box in the electronics shop in apple market (kek)
either one is good. i actually kind of like the N64 version but purists will choose PS1. the vastly better draw distances on PS1 and stable 3D on N64 are the main separating factors.

>>8274275
>polygon distortion, crooked lines
Over exaggerated.
>no bilinear filtering
Yes, no garbage.

>>8274268
This is it. All I needed

worst Megaman game ever piece of shit with cringe tranny zoomer fanbase

Most objects that glow, such as Refractors, no longer look bright and glowing and look dark instead.

The voices were downsampled to fit onto the cartridge. If you've played ZX Advent, you know what I mean. It's not THAT bad, but still.

There is analog control, however it's not true analog and it's basically just the D-pad on a stick. It's also oversensitive. I'm not sure if you can still use the D-pad.

There is some rumble, like when MegaMan gets knocked down.

Much faster load/save times.

SLOWDOWN. This is the biggest problem. Even textboxes suffer from slowdown sometimes.

No CD samples in the Electronics store.

The credits theme is removed and replaced with the Bank theme for some reason.

A lot more fog. The PSX version already has fog, so it's more noticeable here.

Graphics have antialiasing, and there are a couple of added effects. One of the final boss's attacks is more colorful for instance.

>tfw you find the muffled audio cozy

>>8274256
Both are excellent. N64 controls better and is less jittery, but the better textures, draw distance, and audio make psx the superior version. Either way Legends, Tron Bonne, and Legends 2 are must plays.

>The voices were downsampled to fit onto the cartridge.
This one is sort of a big one despite the general "well, a lot of games of that vintage have muffled compressed voice audio", because the PSX version is a game that didn't and Legends is a VERY talkative game so there's a lot to hear.
Also they messed up pointers for one voice clip during a cutscene at the end of the game so a character says a wrong line from a different cut scene.

>>8274275
Legends (PS1) has an unlockable Easy mode. You need to beat the game on Hard mode to get it.
It gives you the Buster Max (maxes all your Buster's stats) and the Jet Skates at the start, enemies have 20% less HP (including bosses) and drop more Zenny.

>>8274326
How do you know what zoomers and trannys like?

As someone who grew up with 64, they aren't so different that playing 64 doesn't mean you can't say you "played Legends". It's a very straight port with a surprisingly small amount of large changes considering the change in format to cartridge. Capcom just wanted to dab on em at the end of the N64's lifespan with technically impressive ports (that are still a bit worse than the original for various reasons)
Honestly once you get used to the entire game looking different the only big thing you'll notice in casual play is Zenny being dark as fuck

>>8274338
Lookin' good
>>8274345
Of course you can just use the D-Pad, what kind of sociopath plays Mega Man 64 with the fucking stick?

>>8275090
They keep posting their gay shit everywhere, obviously.

>>8276020
Like where? Elaborate. What location are you hanging out at online where they profess their love of MegaMan Legends?

>>8274973
What is that look that Legends had? Not all PS1 games had it, since I remember Parasite Eve having things more murky and dark. Legends has like a poppy, colorful, and blocky aesthetic that reminds me a lot of Saturn games at their best.

I'm a well adjusted adult man with a job, house, wife, and children, and I enjoy Legends.

Continue to cope with people enjoying things my man

>>8276210
>I'm a larp adjusted larper with larp, larp, larp and larp and I enjoy Legends.

>>8276198
Where? Are you seeing trannys after looking in the mirror?

>>8274275
What about the PC version?

>>8276194
I don't know, but I've been craving it ever since. Maybe in another 20 years Capcom will pull it's head out of it's ass and give us MML3

>>8276194
they avoided textures and shading whenever possible
legends had brilliant art direction though and every poly and pixel on megaman is exactly where it needs to be.

PSX game ported to N64, guaranteed the quality is worse in many mays to make it fit inside the cartridge. One thing people never mention is how texture resolution is lower on N64 for Resident Evil 2 and Legends

>>8276351
Curious about this as well. Played n64 version as a kid and want to try one of the cd versions.

>>8276223
Do you know what LARP means my dude?

>>8274326
This, it's just another game adopted by /vr/'s resident contrarians to coom over.
Amazing graphics and world, meh everything else

>>8274256
Unironically go play a better game

PS1 has less slowdown in the big open areas like Downtown, and a bit better of draw distance, but it still has draw distance issues anyway.
I think the game looks better on N64 though, the textures being smaller is not a problem if you play on a CRT, and everything looks consistent and firm, instead of shaky like on PS1. I definitely think the sort of proto-cel shading cartoon look benefits from the N64's more seamless filtering and correct 3D perspective (some cutscenes on PS1 are really bad, like suddenly Mega Man's limbs disappear or clip through the floor).
All in all though, both are basically the same game so you're still good with whichever. PS1 performs a bit better, N64 looks better (unless you really have a hard on for the PS1's incorrect perspective and texture warping issues) and of course, has no loading times.
Also something curious, the "comic book" was censored in the PS1 western version, it changed the sexy catgirl for some superhero, but the N64 western version still has the original catgirl... might have been an oversight because it still says "comic book" instead of "erotic book" as it was in the original japanese.

Doesn't work well on modern machines. I tried it once and it wouldn't save.

MML2's PC version is only in Chinese and flat out doesn't launch on W10

>>8274256
PS1, on emulator, with wobbly polygons and texture alignment fixed, widescreen, and 1080p/4K resolution.

In those conditions, this game looks like some kind of amazing 16-bit anime, the way it's supposed to.

>>8274275
>unlockable easy mode
what is the point if you already beaten the game in normal?

>>8280824
>some cutscenes on PS1 are really bad, like suddenly Mega Man's limbs disappear or clip through the floor
Post proof or you're full of shit.

>>8281953
>widescreen

>>8276210
Same here bro, love me Legends 1&2&Tron, simple as.

>>8281959
yes retard it looks better

>>8276351
The PC version is shit. All you need to do is launch the game, and check the very first corridor: the textures on the walls are supposed to be animated, but aren't.

That was enough for it to alt+f4 and uninstall; I didn't want to find out what other shit are outright broken or missing

>>8274326
>zoomer

nigger I don't think you realize how old most of us who like the games are.

>>8282046
this. most legends fans ive met are in their late 20’s or early 30’s.

>>8283992
He's sitting with legs hanging out from the ship in ragged breath and relief. This was fully intended and they censored this moment of characterization in the N64 version.

>>8284000
that's some big booty mega man has.
also checked.

>>8274256
I hate these threads so much. Fuck you op. Seriously, you know what you did, fuck you.

>>8284000
Lol why even lie about this? To be fair, I’m pretty sure that moment of him clipping through the floor is very brief.

>>8284043
it's pretty noticable even on a crt TV. I played this game obsessively as a kid

>>8284043
You retard

>>8283992
soulless/soul

>>8284468
I dunno man, that reaverbot looks much better on the N64, it looks all distorted on the PSX.
Not to mention the ship's floor...
