Mega Man Legacy Collection Addresses Insensitive Cultural Depictions.

Capcom has added a warning message at the start of its recently-released The Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection, acknowledging "insensitive cultural depictions" in the game. The disclaimer notes that the games in the collection may contain some cases of insensitive cultural depictions that are presented as originally created to preserve their authenticity. The move has been praised by fans for acknowledging the content while leaving it intact to preserve the games as originally released.

Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection addresses cultural insensitivity.

Capcom's Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection on Switch includes a warning message about "insensitive cultural depictions" in the games, which were originally released between 2001 and 2006. The message acknowledges that sensibilities and viewpoints have changed over the past 20 years and that some content may not be appropriate by today's standards. Rather than removing the content, Capcom chose to include a warning for newcomers, similar to how Warner Bros. handles the re-release of some of their classic cartoons.
