Therefore Anniversary gets my vote, even though I've only played the Gamecube one of that . It's it something like the Gamecube and PS2 came out at the same time and each one has some different bonus feature, while the Xbox version came out a little later and has all of that bonus content and more? I dinnae remember. I could swear there's one that could be classified as the definitive version of Anniversary though.
Nothing game content related as a bonus, just combined PS2/GC extras.
The PlayStation 2 version features the original Ruby-Spears Mega Man cartoon pilot episode, while the GameCube version has an interview with Mega Man artist and producer Keiji Inafune. The Xbox version, which was released later, includes the same interview, the first episode of the MegaMan NT Warrior anime, the ability to change the control scheme, and the arranged music tracks from the PlayStation 2 version.
The OCD collector in me hasn't considered the Xbox version because the Mega Man X Collection only came out on PS2, GameCube. Can't have these things split amirite?
I have Anniversary Collection on the GameCube, and while the controls annoy me some, if I play it a bit I adjust. And I found the emulation good enough for that generation of consoles, though I am a little confused how the PS2 version would have better NES emulation, unless they just put no effort into the GC version. The GC is definitely beefier hardware than the PS2.

It's not NES emulation. It's essentially playstation emulation. The Anniversary Collection is based on the Rockman Complete Works for the Playstation for MM1-6. I believe MM7 is a custom emulator (which actually was done very well on all platforms) and MM8 is based on the Playstation version.
The Legacy collection is actually built from the ground up around the original NES/Famicom games.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?
