Personally, I'd say control-wise, the X Collection is best on the PS2. Not only is the button layout of the dualshock similar to the SNES controller's X Y A B buttons, but the later mega man games were actually on the PS1. You can even use a PS1 controller on your PS2 to play them if you want. Hard to beat that. :)

Mega Man Anniversary and X Collection on PS2 are fantastic and fairly cheap (especially considering all you get with them). I think I got mine on amazon for like 10 bucks apiece a while back.

It even includes a few games that never got official US releases over here on their original console.

I actually, I was forced to finally go buy a PS2 dual-shock because my PS1 dual-shock would not work on the Mega Man X Collection (or maybe it was Anniversary? But it was definitely one or the other) when I got it.

And I don't mean that just the analog sticks wouldn't work, the game wouldn't detect the PS1 controller at all. And it was a Sony-brand that works fine otherwise.

That's odd, I would've sworn that you're supposed to be able to use PS1 controllers. Oh well, it's not like there's a huge difference between the two.

Well, both ps2 and ps1 dualshocks aren't too expensive to get, although the latter just seems harder to find in the wild depending on location.
