Damian79: The games load once when you select which one you want to play, it's about 10 seconds load per game on PS2, 5 seconds on Cube. The Cube layout is B jumps, A shoots, triggers cycle through weapons, Y is turbo shot. And no, the reversed controls aren't an issue unless you want them to be. The B button is lower on the controller and much smaller, game layout 101 dictates that B should be for precision jumping and A for shooting. The game plays better on Cube with reversed controls than it would on the Cube controller with non-reversed controls, nostalgia and habit aside. I've played back and forth with the Anniversary Collection and Network Transmission (non-reversed controls), and with a little objectivity it's clear that this is the best layout on the Cube's controller. Nintendo laid out the original Metroid this way on Metroid Prime.
It boils down to this: Do you want slightly more polished graphics, better load times when the games boot up, and a great documentary on Mega Man's history? Get the Cube version. Do you want remixed music in some of the games and a control layout more similar to the NES originals? Get the PS2 version. You can't lose either way, anyone that says otherwise is, as JMET would say, a fag
