The article forgot to mention Mega Man Universe which also got cancelled. It's funny that they said fans are "disenfranchized", I think he ment "disenchanted" or "disillusioned".

Mega Man will always live on, just check out a few sections below right here on this forum.  ;D

I want X9, period. :P
And Acey's right, fan-projects will keep him alive whatever capcom is going to say or do. (hope somebody will pick up abandoned ZX fighting project on sprites-inc and MMX: Corrupted would be fully done)

yeah thats true Exelord and Acey. long as fans keep em alive in their stuff he will never be forgotten.

The Face of Evil

Hopefully, we'll get something.

I'd like a MM/MMX tie-in. Maybe done like one MM classic mission, then a flashforward to MMX time for a mission, and that goes back and forth (not neccisarily one mission, maybe a string of 3 MMX then return to the past, etc) until we understand a full link between the two storylines.

Yeah, kinda looks like soul buyer...
That idea of connecting 2 worlds is good thing indeed... We need to know the truth! \-/o (like where Bass gone, was he rebuilt as Zero or killed trying to show he's the strongest, same goes to X, is he enchanced Mega Man or someone else, or what message Wily left in Zero's memory, etc.) It won't be bad if MMZ also would be connected a lil bit, but hopefully not MML or BN, SF :P

So you essentially want Megaman Generations but with a deeper plot?

That was Megaman Universe. Hyper was talking about a Sonic Generations type thing.

Oh, right! Little slow on the intake. :D

So essentially yes, but I don't actually mean for them to meet, just for the story to be told from each perspective going back and forth.

I can understand them not bridging the gap between series because it's like once you do that, you essentially close the book on making more games in that series because, well you already know what's eventually gonna happen right?

What I really want to know is what was Capcom doing with Zero's ending in MvC3. That essentially is saying to me that the Zero series is in a different universe that the Classic and X series, which would put ZX in that universe as well. I would actually prefer that since the art styles are so different and since Command Mission officially carried the X series into the 23rd century (22XX) which is where the Zero series is supposed to take place.

Also, official sourcebooks confirm that the Legends series is actually at the end of the timeline of the main universe, whereas Battle Network and Starforce are in there own separate universe bridged about 200 years apart.

That's what Megaman Online seemed like before they cancelled it.

Actually, G-Tech just recently had an extensive Q&A session about Rockman Online, it hasn't been cancelled yet. They did mention that it won't be connected the the main universe so the rules will be very different as to character crossovers and the like, but they did confirm that Sigma is the main villian.

I think there is the small issue of the 100 yr time gap between X and Classic though.

Bass did not become Zero, that much is pretty well known.

However, there's a lot of supported speculation that Bass became Vile.



I also noticed the confusion between Command Mission and MMZ. I think the MvC3 ending was an attempt at saying that MMZ takes place in some kind of pocket universe or branch universe that parallels the X universe possible futures.

What is this you speak of?
There was fan project http://www.sprites-inc.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=6633 it looked quite nice and all, but was abandoned as many others.
Yeah, I know that if they do it there's no road for MM11, but when I look at it MM11 and thinking that it would be again with nes graphics ignoring MM7,8 and MM&F... Meh, though they always can make in-between parts like MM4.5 or something with time travel(Powered up 2?). Non canon stuff also have green light there(I've edited previous MM thread to times with links to QA, BTW :P ). Also MM10 after MM9 was greated by attitude "what?? again? they gonna spam us with nes-like stuff now?"
I always thought of MML as alternative universe... Dunno :-?? Z still may have connection with X not only letter connection in model ZX  ;*)) And I wonder if there's possible connection of Z with BN, in Z2 was cyber world where, if you traded with BN4 with link cable, was BN viris.
What I'm thinking of - it was so many parts that making one bridge part for two series will not cause harm and actually it brings game. Errr, I mean it's much better to have bridging game than leave gap open and for years have no more games in both series.

:P that's typo, I was thinking that game on snes was Japan only and remembered that it was ported to gba(honestly I don't get all that deal with different names, why the hell they made it? Roll is Roll, Rush is Rush, Wily is Wily why rename others? :-??) and hadn't mentioned what I did there :D Well, it's 5AM and I need some sleep after all, just that evil internet grabbed me firmly.
(And I like how Forte sounds more than Bass)
---
BTW, I played in snes game on emulator with patch preserved original names and got used to it, when I got my hands on gba one I still called Bass as Forte and Gospel as Treble =P

RIP Megaman (Classic, X, Zero, Volnutt and EXE). But seriously, meh thinks its gonna be a very very long time before we see another Megaman. I would love to see an old school SNES style MMX9 or MML3, but I'm not holding my breath because right now, Capcom is all about the money. SF4 and MVC3 are popular fighters that can be rehashed 10 times over and people will continue to buy it. Same goes for Dead Rising now. Zombies are in, so lets throw in co-op, and keep rehashing with little improvement and minor additions. UMVC3 is a prime example, I couldn't believe my eyes when I played it. The back of the box says brand new stages (or something like that) but in reality, all we got was the same stages from the first, altered. The Ghouls and Ghosts stage is literally just a black and white copy of the original...

Bottom line, Capcom is gonna stick to what makes them money right now, and apparently, Megaman doesn't. Thats just my opinion on the matter. :-??

Mega Man isn't making money because he doesn't have anything to buy.

Apparently Capcom's business department has crap for brains.
