(PSone) Mega Man Legends 2 (English Debug Prototype) | July 12, 2000 Prototype

Release Article at PRC | DOWNLOAD

Finally got this off the ground. This is a work-in-progress North American localization build of Mega Man Legends 2 with debugging functions and Japanese voice dialog, but with English text. With a burn date of July 12, 2000, this build predates the North American final release by approximately three months. Protodude shared me this prototype a week prior to its release on Saturday. During that period, I spent time playing and studying the game's debug functions and putting together the video below.

And some of the debugging features are awesome, one of which lets you have complete control the camera, allowing hilariously ridiculous (and reportedly mind-bending) results. Take a look:



I've already wrote a page over at the TCRF that details some of the debug functions for the prototype. I still have some sections I gotta write about, so I'll try and work on them this week. Its definitely been a pleasure working with Protodude to bring the video out in time for the prototype release. Now I'm off to working on the next video of the next prototype for this coming Saturday's release. =)

 

Very cool ty for the video huge fan of the series, im looking forward to giving this proto a shot.

 

I'd wonder if you can kick the puppy in this version since it's still sort of the Japanese version of the game?

 

Wrong game. This is a prototype for the game after.

 

actually that part of the game is on one of the Megaman Legends 1 or 2 (forgot which) so your saying is the ability to kick the dog/puppy is not in this Prototype?

 

In Legends 1, you can kick dogs. In Legends 2, you can kick pigs (and still can in the English debug prototype). There are no dogs to kick in Legends 2.

 

oh yeah i remember it was only in 1 you could do so lol forgot & thanks. Btw did part 2 removed the ability to kick pigs in the american version/release?

 

I said Legends 2, not Rockman DASH 2.

 

Dude, it doesn't really matter!! They're BOTH THE SAME GAME ANYWAYS! lol and plus if you actually read my entire post to the end. I Did recall saying my memory about it wasn't really good on the subject & it i was reading about it on some site a long while back in 2012 or mid 2013, on tcrf (The Cutting Room Floor) I believe. so.. relax that my dude okay? You wouldn't like it if i said something similar like in the American version of Castlevania 64 you can't do a frontflip but in the Japanese version you can as many times as you want! And try to correct you on which version you thought you could do so was wrong.

 

Different content in the localization. And I did, and I thought I was only answering your question, dude. No hate.

 

oh, your right about that i apologise lol i wasn't pissed or anything as i thought you were about to attack me or something haha yeah & even though the might look the same into the eyes of an average person but truely they're are actually completely different and you have made a perfectly vaild point. Again i am truly sorry for the whole misunderstanding

 

This is a very nice release for sure! Kudos to Protoman
I doubt I'll have time to play with it anytime soon so thanks for sharing the video, KeijiDragon
