Floofy Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 Just saw this on another forum, It's hilarious and frustrating at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rawr Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 You know, on one hand I actually DO find it pretty funny. But that laugh doesn't laugh long considering when I reflect back on it Bad Boxart Megaman has had homages with the Megaman 9 and 10 boxart, and was even slated to be included in Megaman Universe before it was cancelled. I am conflicted, because it does make me smile a tiny bit - but at the same time its a painful reminder that this is probably the best we'll get in terms of Megaman for a long time. A sort-of cameo in a fighting game and a Megaman X skin for Zero in Marvel VS Capcom 3, instead of being a full-fledged character in the game.

Chaos-Fusion Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 First DmC, now MegaMan. That's why I'm a Sonic Fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serephim Posted January 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 In my eyes, it's trolling at its maximum. Capcom obviously knows that players have been questioning how Pheonix Wright made it into Marvel vs Capcom before Megaman / X did. So they announce Megaman for SFxT, and that happens. I've never felt any weight on Megaman's death or even the cancellation of Legends 3. But this godtier level of trolling is just...it baffles me. But more than anything? This has had an odd effect on my anticipation of this game. The fact that they would literally waste a character spot like this is questionable to me, especially seeing what a trainwreck of a balanced fighter Marvel vs Capcom 3 is. Capcom is...honestly starting to kind of fade away in my eyes. I remember there used to be a time I anticipated everything from them. Now everything's all questionable n shit First DmC, now MegaMan. That's why I'm a Sonic Fan AAAH-HA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rawr Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 Megaman Legends 3 being cancelled was personally my lowest point during all of this, everything else is just kind of like "fuck off Capcom". So it bothers me, but the damage has already been done in my eyes that I just get frustrated rather than really get pissed off. Megaman Legends 3 and the whole devroom concept was great, and so when it was canned to me the biggest pissoff was that they got everybody so...involved, and in a game that lots of us have been looking forward to for a long time, only to take it away. Capcom is a real big hit and a miss to me these days. REAL big. I'll probably pick up SFxT after the first re-release of it happens. No way am I getting it on first go.

XeroNazoBlaze Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 Hahaha, what the fuck. Anyway, they won't bring back the true character that everyone loves, so fuck Capcom and every fighting game they make. On another note, Pacman, hahahahahahahaha, holy shit.

ila Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 Yeah, it's pretty insulting, especially to Mega Man's fanbase. Pac-Man is also poorly done to be honest. He seems to just be Pac-Man thrown on Mokujin or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strife Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 If I didn't know any better, I'd say they're sticking it to Infayune for leaving the company. Though, honestly, are they really willing to lose half of their fanbase for that? I'm glad, at least, that Capcom is welcoming towards non-profit fanworks, so there's always hope in the fangaming community to restore the Blue Bomber's dignity.

luksamuk Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 I know I'm late again, but OH FUCK I thought it was just some kind of speculation, but MAN, CAPCOM REALLY HATES MEGAMAN. Funny, sad, ironic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess then in this case, it was done to relate to Megaman Universe. Bad Boxart Megaman was to appear in that game after all. Seeing as it was done before Inafune had left, and more than likely before MMU was cancelled, this is probably how/why it happened. At the time Bad Boxart Megaman was a pretty funny reference (with the MM9 and 10 boxarts, MMU etc). So I guess in a way it kind of makes a little bit of sense. Still sucks though. I'd probably enjoy it more if it didn't just happen to come at a shitty time of 'lets cancel all things megaman'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serephim Posted January 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 IMO it's a retarded idea regardless of who still resided in the company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper Emerson Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 I think Stupid US Box Mega Man is kind of cool, but there's no questioning that Capcom inserted a random Legends reference in his bio just to be irritating. (To be fair, he was reffered to as a miner in ZX Advent) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rawr Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 Thats because (and I could be wrong, though I think I read this in the MMZ Art book) every Megaman game leads up to the Legends series. ZX and ZXA I think are pretty good indicators of this, since a lot of the designs are starting to get closer to the MML aesthetics among other things.

FanGameRevolver Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 Am I the only one else realizing that all of these extra characters suck? MegaMan - Massive trolling LMFAO. Pac-Man, Why the hell is he in a mech? Its more of a mech then anything. And I'm so sick of those fucking cats, does anyone like fighting them at all?

DJ espeed Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 NO, GOD! …NO, GOD, PLEASE NO! NO! …NO! …NOOOOOOOOOO!!! ...on the bright side, these are "PS3/Vita-exclusive" characters, so I'm avoiding those versions automatically. But I wish I knew whether or not TrollMan and Pac-Mech are going to surface in the 360 version. Sure, Capcom's saying they're PS3/Vita-exclusive, but I'm not too sure if they really are exclusive to those two platforms. I'm going to wait post-release on this until I do know.
