It's finally happened, MegaMan is joining the cast of Smash Bros. on Wii U and 3DS, and it looks sweet as hell!

Proper actual MegaMan!

You can see the trailer near the end here:  http://e3.nintendo.com/

I wonder if we'll eventually get a Wii U MegaMan?

NOT A DREAM!  NOT AN IMAGINARY TALE!

I won't lie, I teared up watching this.  I have no words.  So.  Good.

S'more.

My bud just told me about this and I had to sneak on here at work to talk about it. This is literally the first gaming news I've been excited for in a long time.

I'm probably going 3DS on this one.

I literally never would have predicted this, considering the trouble Capcom's been putting the poor guy through.

...Wait, does this mean the new Smash Bros. is going to get cancelled?

What bothers me is that Nintendo knows how
to handle Capcom's material FAR better than
they do. I would have never pictured a 3D
classic Megaman such as this-- Stubby,
moving buster parts, apathetic expression.

But it Works. It works so well.

I'm so accustomed to picturing Megaman 8's
 design in a 3D environment, that this
almost seemed alien to me at first. But the
thing about Capcom's design is it doesn't take
into consideration that the character IS
indeed a robot. Nothing about classic
Megaman's design, especially his later
iterations, screams robot-- He could very well
 be a boy in a blue suit.

Nintendo's approach is not only faithful to the
"idea" of Megaman, it's also reminiscent to the
golden age of the blue bomber. With his stature
and facial expression, he looks and moves much
like a 3D Megaman should.

If Capcom doesn't know what to do with the Blue
Bomber any longer, I would be more than happy
to let Nintendo have a go at the franchise.

I haven't been this excited since Megaman 9 was announced.

I think it amuses me, rather than bothers me, that Nintendo easily pulls off the character mechanically (no pun intended). All I can really do about Capcom is laugh.

In terms of the art style, he looks so cold and rigid, and while that doesn't strike me as inherently "right", the style of the character is an interesting take on the fact that MegaMan IS a robot, and I do like it a lot.
But I guess that's just me repeating what you said in a different way.

I don't think he's all totally emotionless, there are some shots where he looks more human in expression (the one of him next to DK with that "oh god I'm next to HIM" look) but I love how they've rendered him in Smash.  Wouldn't mind seeing Roll and Light as well to round it out (and hopefully Wily will show up too).

I almost had a heart attack when I saw the trailer for the first time.  When I saw the helmet flash, I was like "NO....#####ING....WAY"  And then when he threw that Metal Blade at Mario and Link, I was trembling.

Looks like I have a new main besides Jigglypuff & Ike.

I have a feeling our tournaments will be comprised of several different colour MegaMans.

As for myself, I'm sure I'll play the character a lot, but I always end up going for what feels best. I recall really liking the addition of Diddy in Brawl, and had plans to use him a lot, but in reality I had difficulty playing as him.

If Falco is still in it I'll probably swap between him and Mega Man.

...and maybe Captain Falcon if they decide not to make him ##### in this one.

Something to think about.

Also, I believe the yellow devil is Mega's final smash.

Characters may have to avoid the blocks.

I seem to recall Smash Bros. being more likely to have its roster cut down rather than expanded, so we might see a lot less of "clones" this time around, and more functionally diverse characters.

The illustration on this page ought to be a Club Nintendo poster. I'd pay up.

I'd see them getting rid of Toon Link & Wolf.  Maybe even Falco.

But IF they remove Jigglypuff, i'd be upset.  I enjoyed trolling people online with her and I hope to continue to do so (when I'm not too busy playing as Mega Man of course)

Actually, scratch what I said. More recent news suggests that they ARE going to put in as many characters as possible, but the roster size will be equivalent to how much content the 3DS can handle and that's the only reason it might be limited.
LINK: http://kotaku.com/dont-expect-a-lot-of-third-party-characters-in-the-nex-513203533

Still, I rather like the limitation. We could end up seeing more creativity than repetition this time around.

Sakurai worked Megaman perfectly.  Not only did he no use a copy ability similar to Kirby, but was able to integrate the powers of the robot masters into his moveset. 

Also I loved how Sakurai trolled everyone by including Wii Fit Trainer.  Although he can't really troll me since the character I wanted the most already was confirmed.

Seeing MegaMan in Smash 4 made me happier than any game reveal for a long time (probably since Snake in Brawl).

This thread also makes me happy.

I expect Yellow Devil is just part of his little story mode rather than his final Smash, since most final smashes have you in control and/or the character is suped up somehow instead of idling.

I really never liked the Final Smash system anyway.

I wish Rush looked happier. Actually on the subject of Rush, while it looks like MM's ^B move is Rush Coil, it would have been fun if his saving move had Beat come grab him. But I realize Rush Coil is just more iconic.



I'd be surprised if they got rid of Wolf.

Oh, and Elec Man is an Assist Trophy. Pretty surprised it's not Proto Man or Bass.

That final smash is nice, X is awesome and I'm happy to see Trigger.  EXE is so so but Geo can go piss off.  At least they didn't cram in MMZ Zero or the ZX abortions into it (though I'd have Model X Aile would have been passable if not hot).

Still hoping on Wily showing up though.  Smash is looking to be the best Mega Man game Capcom has released or not canceled in a good 5 years (or since 10 came out).

Hopefully Wily is a boss in whatever Adventure mode they have in the game. I mean, there are Mets in that Smash Run thing for the 3DS so one can hope...

I'm curious about Mega Man's alternate colors though... Wonder which special weapon palettes will make it in?

^ You... You aren't Majikn...


Anyway, I'm OK with EXE being in there. I never played Star Force so I don't really have an opinion either way about Geo, but it makes sense to me though I'd prefer a version of Model X.

I was just glad Zero isn't there, in any form.
I'm glad Proto Man and Bass weren't delegated to assist trophies too. That's gruntwork and they are good characters.

Got to see Mega Man's final smash in full just now...

He launches a Black Hole Bomb, and if it hits, you end up seeing the animation we saw earlier with all the Mega Mans. It was really sweet to see.

EDIT: Mega Man's Final Smash, with some... commentary.

And now we have some Pac-Man.

Mega Man is a #####ing blast to play as. I'm pretty sure Falco is no longer my main now.

Shadow Blade is probably going to be in there too.  Water Wave would be a cool one to replace Flame Man's special since they're the same type of attack.  I'm interested to see what the alts are.

While this is wishful thinking, I wouldn't mind if Sakurai actually threw a bone to fan games and put in something from Mega Man Unlimited.

Imagine hearing Yo-Yo Man's theme in Smash? 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MpFcfSU2OI0

As far other alts  I could see Shadow Blade & Ring Boomerang as his standard B, Flash Bomb & Danger Wrap as his Side B, his other Up B could possibly be Super Adapter and his down B perhaps Jewel Satellite.

Mega Man Unlimited?  That was a horribly mediocre effort.  It had a few genuinely good ideas, but that's it.  I have nothing really positive to say about it other than they actually managed to get a complete fan game out that worked, which is in itself laudable.  But that doesn't mean it was good, because it was far from it.
