So....yeah.

(Taken from translation of Rockman Zero Collection site)

[spoiler]Reploids… those are robots made a time long ago who were near human and had limitless potential… Given individuality by means of advanced technology, the Reploids worked for humans and were meant to be the greatest ally to walk alongside mankind… However, trouble silently built up among the gears between humans and Reploids that beneath these peaceful times… Having limitless potential and being near human, it was only a matter of time before the Reploids would oppose humans. These kinds of dangerous Reploids the humans fearfully called Mavericks… Reploids that became Mavericks were disposed of by there own Reploid brethren… This was the response humans devised… For the Reploids trying to protect their human masters, there was no room for choice. Thus a violent war between the Reploids that seemed to have no end erupted… Numerous battles accumulated… time went on… and even with the creation of the human utopia protected by Reploids, Neo Arcadia, the struggles haven’t ended…

At least 200 years ago
The birth of X

When an incident occured where an unknown computer virus came from space and causes robots to become violent and riotous, Dr. Light completed the battle robot “X” worrying about the future of Earth. Hypothesizing X could battle robots infected by viruses, he gave X the perfect virus counter-measure. Meanwhile Dr. Light developed a great number of armors, but this presented the possibility of X becoming a threat to mankind. To confirm the safety of X’s cognition program, Dr. Light sealed away X in an analysis capsule.

1XX years ago
The birth of Zero

Zero was produced by Dr. Wily, who schemed at taking over the world. But he contained a flaw in his cognitive program that made him violent and unwilling to obey instructions, so Dr. Wily himself sealed Zero in a capsule.

1XX years ago
X is discovered

X is discovered by Dr. Cain, having been buried underground for 100 years.

1XX years ago
The birth of Reploids

Dr. Cain carried out his research of X, and using this created highly advanced robots called “Reploids.”

1XX years ago
The Sigma Virus outbreak

A subspecies of the terrible computer virus from long ago is generated, and begins driving robots mad locally. The human leadership acknowledges these infected robots as Mavericks, and orders them to be disposed of. The source was found to be an unknown computer virus that had prevailed over 100 years ago emerging from the capsule Zero slumbered in. Later, this virus was named the Sigma Virus, after the Reploid “Sigma” who led a revolt against the human leadership.

1XX years ago
Formation of the Maverick Hunters

Following through with the disposal of Mavericks, the human leadership decides to have Mavericks exterminated by Reploids, and forms the Maverick Hunters. Ironically, the leader of the first generation of Maverick Hunters is Sigma.

1XX years ago
Zero awakens

Receiving information of Zero awakening from his capsule and causing violence, the Maverick Hunter Sigma finds and intercepts him. during this incident, Sigma is infected by the unknown computer virus leaking out from Zero’s capsule, but at the same time Zero, having his armor damaged in the battle with Sigma, also becomes infected with the virus. Due to this, Zero’s personality completely changed, and he would turn to working as a Maverick Hunter.

1XX years ago
The Maverick Wars begin

Infected by the unknown computer virus, Sigma defects to the side of the Mavericks and leads a revolt against human leadership. The wars between the Mavericks and the Maverick Hunters for the future of humanity begins.

1XX years ago
Fall of the colony “Eurasia”

Under Sigma’s orders, the Reploid mercenary Dynamo causes an obsolete space colony “Eurasia” to crash into Earth. Along with recognizing the threat of the Mavericks anew, the human leadership professes its aim of eradicating all Mavericks. The site that became a contamination zone is dubbed Area Zero, and for the next 100 years would be barred from entry.

1XX years ago
The Nightmare Incident

“The Nightmare Incident” occurs, an event where a subspecies of the Sigma Virus that attracts attention as the Nightmare Virus spreads throughout the world. The fact was proven that Zero was it source, as he was a carrier of the Sigma Virus, and was contagious to his surroundings as he worked across the world as a Hunter. In finding this, the human leadership decides for Zero to be sealed away, but due to the influence of scientists studying the Sigma Virus, his cognitive program was removed from his body so the two could be researched separately.

1XX years ago
The birth of the Mother Elf

A Reploid researcher of this time (Dr. Ciel’s great-grandmother) studies Zero’s cognitive program and discovers an antibody to the Sigma Virus. She completes the Mother Elf, a program lifeform that can rewrite and erase the Sigma Virus. Afterwards, the scientists in the field of researching the Sigma Virus make researching Cyber Elves their focus.

1XX years ago
The Elf Wars rise from the Maverick Wars

There are many historians who define the end of the Maverick Wars as the period when the number of Mavericks dropped significantly due to X’s using the Mother Elf. In actuality there is no enduring the conflict, and afterwards the latter period of the Maverick Wars came to be known as the Elf Wars.

1XX years ago
The proposal of Project Elpizo

A member of the humans researching Cyber Elves proposes “Project Elpizo,” an operation to create a Reploid that’s a perfect ruler using the Mother Elf’s program rewriting ability. X opposed this operation, but out of fear of a long-lasting war support begins for complete control of Reploids. The confrontation of X’s “philosophy of coexistence” and the human leadership’s “philosophy of rule” begins.

So... Mega Man 10 was the reason X was made? And that Roboenza really is the #####ing Maverick Virus?

God #####ing dammit Capcom. This isn't funny.

Roboenza isn't the virus.

It's a precursor to the virus.  Thanks to #####ing Capcom it's canon now.

Sure is some asspull retconning there Capcom.  My favorite part is how now Light made X because he wanted a robot that was immune to viruses.  Though I will say, it makes the STILL horridly named "Elf Wars" much MUCH less gay as it sounds like it's just X going around with a laptop using it to run antivirus on Mavericks instead of having cute floaty elfs sparkling beside him.

Did anyone else also notice that the horrible US box info of Mega Man Zero 1 is now correct? That "After being turned good by the Sigma virus" blurb we all laughed at is true now!

....ah.  It's all just so damn silly I can't even get mad at it anymore.  I just have to chuckle as they just keep revising and revising.

At least we know what 10's subtitle meant now eh?

Not really.  They don't mention X4 either.  It looks like it's just hitting things that are specific to MMZ's "plot" and the revisions/changes/retcons to try to make it all make more sense.

Mind you retconning Axl out of existance is fine with me.

Techincally, Axl isn't out of the picture, because he's in Zero.

And if you count everything Zero related as canon, then you have to count ZX as part of it too, since the story is related.

And that doesn't make sense anyway... why is Axl in ZXA again?

Nothing makes sense anymore. It made sense BEFORE, or at least BEGAN to, but who is writing this crap?

Just stick to a plot, make good games, and move on.

You know what's funny? The majority of people who play Mega Man (at least the classic series) don't care about the storyline. You just wanna move right and shoot things. So why is Capcom putting so much work in story revisions?

Okay, I'll break it down as I see it.

>Axl is in X7, X8, and Command Mission.
>Then we have the Zero series. He's NOT in Zero, as we thought. There's no trace of him (at least that I've heard).
>But somehow, he's still EXISTANT, because he appears as a main (model) character in ZXA, which branches off of Zero's story.

Where was he in the Zero series timeline? Ask Capcom. They're masters of pulling rabbits out of their hats*.

Even then, Model "Albert" looks like Axl, and has his abilities... which is rather bleh.

Actually, only Albert is a self-glorified knob that declared it's "Model Albert", but Model A says "That's not my name!"

It's up for debate, but I think it's clear as day that the whole "Model Albert" deal is just to stir up drama for the sake of (crappy) storytelling. It's Axl thrown together no matter which way you look at it.
