What makes for a better compilation?

[mαrkαsscoρ]

We've seen a ton of game compilations come out over the years, even some of the same games. However, some of them prioritize bonus features over the amount of games. The main example I think of is Mega Man, there was the Anniversary Collection on 6th gen consoles that had 1 - 8 plus both Power Battle games, and the modern Legacy Collections that split the games but included a lot of features in their compilations instead of having a single collection w/ everything.
So basically, should the amount of games in a collection be more important? Or is it preferred to have a lot of bonus features, including gameplay bonuses like a speed function or something? Both would be better of course what do you think is better if it had to be one or the other?

More games. Nobody is buying these compilations for the bonus features.

would that in turn mean you'd go for Anniversary over Legacy Collection (assuming you don't have either if you do)

If they were on the same console, probably. I only own the legacy collection and that’s just because it’s on modern consoles.

I'd rather have more of the games than bonus features if I had to choose. At least with the games I know what I'll be getting into, bonus content is hit or miss.

More games, especially across multiple generations.

Yeah, unless those bonus features are jaw-dropping game-changing life-alteringly good, gimme the more games. More bang for your buck. More longevity.

 

[Bowsette Plus-Ultra]

More and better versions of games. I probably won't tune into much of the extra content, so I'd just look for more games.

And if you're Konami maybe making the games play at greater than 720p on PC.

yeah I'm talking like how the modern Mega Man collections had the easy modes

right after posting this thread, I realized that I should've reworked it into something else, but ah well

 

[A Link In Time]

I prefer more games as most people here. I think extras are cool, but I'll probably only use them a handful of times compared to actually playing a game.

I think it's fine either way.
