'''DS:''' As part of the JP-only ''Umihara Kawase SE Kanzenban'' compilation. Both games in the compilation were ported from scratch with minor enhancements and slightly differently-sounding MIDI music, with the physics properly implemented unlike all other ports.<br />'''Vita:''' As part of the third game, but only included in its Vita port. Seems like emulation.<br />'''PC:''' Upcoming release.
Mentioning the original Mega Man X Collection for all Mega Man X SNES games.
Several SNES games were ported to the PlayStation. More often than not the PS1 ports offer more features. However, the CD format creates loading times. Contrary to popular belief, most of these ports are not emulations. They simply take the text and graphical assets from the SNES game ROM image on the disc, with the rest of the programming being original work.
