I'm not informed on the behind-the-scenes of this specifically, but I do know that some CD-i titles won't run unless the Digital Video Cartridge is installed (think similar to the N64 expansion Pak). So if progress is being made with the DVC, it'll open even more of the system library.

So for the New Year:

- Exercise!
- Starting reading novels again
- Attempt to finish an article I started writing back in 2020
- Complete scripts for videos, even if those never get made
- Finish Trails through Daybreak 1 and 2
- Go though my enormous backlog (Games, Books, TV Shows)

I do really hope they got something planned between now and Dual Override. I wouldn't be too surprised if they re-release Mega Man Legacy Collection again, with some fixes they learned from the later Legacy Collections. Maybe add in Power Battles 1+2 and MM&B. Who knows.

And with Star Force Collection on the way, I really hope Capcom is planning on a Mega Man Legends Collection. And outside the 3 main titles, I really hope it includes cool extras like the Rockman Dash Episode 1 Demo and (although unlikely) having Great Five-Island Adventure included would be awesome

Seems to be about the same for the EZweb version and iMode too.

@bursterror.bsky.social According to IGN, looks like it may have released outside Japan for, at least, Sprint services. www.ign.com/articles/200...

I'm still baffled why Sega only released Volume 2 of this series outside Japan but this one still is worth it for 3D Galaxy Force II and Fantasy Zone II W.

In no particular order:

Half-Minute Hero
Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles
Jeanne d'Arc
Patapon

There's a ton I would pick from (Skies of Arcadia, Yakuza: Like a Dragon, Shinobi III, Shining Force to name a few) but I think if I had to choose just one title, it would be Shenmue.
