Which Megaman would you want for Super Smash Bros. Brawl

[ASR]

They won't take anything from any recent series. It defeats the purpose of adding a WELL-KNOWN 3RD PARTY CHARACTER.

If Capcom pushed for them to use Star Force MM or a ZX character (which won't work because there isn't any single mascot for the series), then Sakurai and his team would just drop it and say "forget it."

[Kamon]

If Mega Man gets in.  This has to be one of the songs...

http://youtube.com/watch?v=bl21f82JDkI

That song is awesome beyond words.

[ChaosVortex]

A NEW CHALLENGER APPROACHES!

Dr. Light.



... think about it.

[Kamon]

I did think about it. It hurts my brain.



If Megaman does show up in Brawl, they'll have Megaman related Assist Trophy's too, right? So, who or what would make a great Assist Trophy?

[Xero]

If X shows up, Axl could be an assist trophy who transforms into the summoner and performs their final smash.

[ChaosVortex]

Rush.

Possibilities include Rush Coil, Rush Jet, Rush Jet Adaptor, Rush Bike, etc.

You can also count Eddy, Beat, Auto, and anyone else in the mix. Possibly Proto Man.

[Kamon]

If X shows up, Axl could be an assist trophy who transforms into the summoner and performs their final smash.

Isn't that a little overpowered? It would probably work better if an Axl Trophy copied a random Assist Trophy.

[Xero]

Well consider Axl a "Legendary" of assit trophies.

[Advent Akksul]

If X shows up, Axl could be an assist trophy who transforms into the summoner and performs their final smash.

Isn't that a little overpowered? It would probably work better if an Axl Trophy copied a random Assist Trophy.

Yeah, but it would be better if he was a character that if you pressed 'forward B' he would use his copy shot!

But the thought of the assist trophy Axl would be just as cool (copying assist trophies)

[Mikero]

Well obviously Classic MM is the only one that would fit in Smash, and X could pull it off.

Really Classic though, and instead of having extra characters for ProtoMan, Bass, etc...

Well, I've been saying for a while they should get rid of duplicate characters by just  making the characters have alternate "costumes" instead of colours. Thus instead of Fox and Falco, you'd have Falco be a variation of Fox, elminating the crappy "I'm Fox with a red jacket! I'm Fox with a GREEN jacket!" jargon.

[NovaMan XP]

They need those alternate colors for Team play or people that want a pink Captain Falcon.

But in addition to said colors they should also have those variations as you said, Mike.

I'm sure they could pull it off easily.

[Mikero]

The colours would be obsolete if they just force you to pick a clone character instead. Sure the abilities might be slightly skewed in a Captain Falcon-Ganondorf style but there's no crying in Baseball.

[Chron]

If X shows up, Axl could be an assist trophy who transforms into the summoner and performs their final smash.

Oh, oh. I have a better idea for that.

When you use Axl's assist trophy, he warps onto the screen in a brilliant flash of light.

Then he dies.
Horribly.
In fire.

[ChaosVortex]

I was thinking about Axl obtaining the DNA of my own ##### but that's also good.

[Xero]

Better yet.  Axl shouldn't even be in Brawl period.

Vile is better suited as an AT with his ride armor.  Or Cinnamon for healing.

[Teelio]

Stick to the OG.

Classic MegaMan ftw.

[Advent Akksul]

Well obviously Classic MM is the only one that would fit in Smash, and X could pull it off.

Thus instead of Fox and Falco, you'd have Falco be a variation of Fox, elminating the crappy "I'm Fox with a red jacket! I'm Fox with a GREEN jacket!" jargon.

Well I have had that idea, but with both colors and costumes!

[Chron]

Better yet.  Axl shouldn't even be in Brawl period.

Vile is better suited as an AT with his ride armor.  Or Cinnamon for healing.

And now I want to hug you.
I'll hug Cinnamon instead.

[Advent Akksul]

Here, here is something better

Characters
-----------------------------
Megaman
X
Zero
Axl
Spider
Marino
Sigma
Vile (Possible AT)
Axl (Possible AT)
Protoman
Bass

-Remember this is just a list of possible characters they will hav to choose from!

Assist Trophy
--------------------------------------
Vile
Axl
Lumine
Cinnamon
Gate
Dr. Wily
Other Megaman

-There should be a longer list but I gotta go

[NovaMan XP]

I think there's only gonna be one playable third party character from a series, and then other characters from that series can be ATs.

Snake is playable and he gets Grey Fox as an AT and will probably get more.

Sonic is playable and he'll probably get Tails and other characters as AT.

[Advent Akksul]

Well if Tails is an assist trophy, then so should Luigi

But one set of Trio's should be there

(Proto, Mega, Bass)
(X, Zero, Axl)

[NovaMan XP]

Luigi should not be an AT because Mario is not a 3rd party character and Luigi was already playable in the last two games.

[Chron]

If anyone should be an assist Trophy from Mario, it's Toad.
And Magikoopa.

And really, half a dozen other things that have probably already been announced.

until now

[Advent Akksul]

Luigi should not be an AT because Mario is not a 3rd party character and Luigi was already playable in the last two games.

Wow Nova you just completely missed my point, but whatever (OFFTOPIC: nice to see you here too)

[ASR]

He didn't MISS your point, he simply nullified whichever one you were trying to make.

Xero, I still adore you for sending me that MP3 (same song in the Youtube vid) a while back. And that other one, link them to that. It was good, too.

ALSO, it's safe to say that every 3rd-party character gets at least one related item. Sonic has the Spring Pads (not revealed on-site, but via E for All), and Snake has Grey Fox's AT.

[SB]

Well if we're on the topic of Assist Trophies and Megaman stuff, then here's what I think they may do for us.

Classic = Protoman. No questions asked, or pitch forks will be raised and fires already lit.
X = Zero or MHX Vile, please!
Legends = Roll to throw random items or even Data the Dancing Monkey? >_>;
EXE = One of the random characters that usually overshadow Megaman here or there.
Zero Series = Random Cyber Elf, GO!
ZX = Umm... Giro? Maybe one of the main characters from either game?
Ryuusei no Rockman = Harp Note

[MOX]

old skool megaman wuld kick butt fo sho'

But honestly I'd want X in it since thats the series I lived with, though classic would make more sense for the game.

[ASR]

Classic or bust. Classic or bust. Classic or bust. Classic or bust. Classic or bust. Classic or bust. Classic or bust. Classic or bust. Classic or bust. Classic or bust. Classic or bust. Classic or bust. Classic or bust. Classic or bust.

THE END

[Johncarllos]

I JUST realized, if there is Megaman, then there must be a level.
It would be like a horzontal Ice mountain thing.
Start, all run right, kill Mets and each other, jump some stuff, watch out for platforms, enter boss door, the boss fights in the background (like Metal Gears in Shadow Moses Island), boss is defeated by players, floor drops out onto another level ending with a another boss, maybe a rotation of 4-5 bosses per fight.

I would cream myself.

[ASR]

This is assuming Classic MM gets in, but the stage would work best if it was based on the Robot Museum. It made appearances in both MM7 and MM&B, and I believe it was referenced in either X5 or X6, just in the future (or coincidentally another robot museum.)

It's perfect because then they could also implement John's idea.

[Vinchenz Rock]

I REALLY hope Classic MegaMan gets in... but not recently (like Sonic; I could've been playing Brawl right now if it weren't for him). If MegaMan is already in the game, fine for me. Otherwise, just leave it.

I also wouldn't mind Bomberman, but only in the same scenario above.

Also, nice moveset, Xero... crazy as ever, eh?

[TheRedPriest]

Classic Mega Man

[/thread]

Any other answer is wrong.  Anyone who said Axl should appear in any way, shape or form needs to be beaten with a pillow case full of broken beer bottles.  Please die.

[Xero]

*dies*

[Orange Devil]

I think that it is rediculous to have any Megaman except X or Classic. The general public would have no idea who they were. And it would be a worse situation than the Fire Emblem characters, because they would know who "Megaman" was, but this character would not look like him.

In addition, I think that if there was a Megaman level it should be Gutsman's stage.

[Chron]

No, one of the Wily areas might work out a bit better.
Come to think of it, that would make for good music, too.

MM3 Hologram room, anybody?

[Orange Devil]

I just like the idea of Gutsmans stage because it is so classic.

Everyone knows it. Plus, imagine the music. It would be great to fight to.

[TheRedPriest]

Cutman is the poster child for non Rock Classic.  His theme is one of the most reused/homaged tunes in the series.  If you're picking a Robot Master theme/stage, it's Cut Man.  If it's Wily, you use the MM2 or MM3 Skull Castle and MM2 Wily Stage 1 theme or the MM3 Fortress stage boss theme.

[Orange Devil]

I still disagree. I think that Gutsman and his stage+theme are the most classic.

[NovaMan XP]

Nah. CutMan's is.

I still love CutMan's stage to this day. I hate GutsMan's because it was so damn short.

But I guess the platforms of doom was supposed to be the part that made the stage lengthy.

[ASR]

CutMan is Capcom's go-to Robot Master, followed closely by GutsMan. CutMan's theme is definitely the most overused, though. It's the title-screen music for MMPU, for god's sake.

[NovaMan XP]

It is? I never really payed attention to it. Well, MM1 never had a title theme on the NES...

[Advent Akksul]

Well if we're on the topic of Assist Trophies and Megaman stuff, then here's what I think they may do for us.

Classic = Protoman. No questions asked, or pitch forks will be raised and fires already lit.
X = Zero or MHX Vile, please!
Legends = Roll to throw random items or even Data the Dancing Monkey? >_>;
EXE = One of the random characters that usually overshadow Megaman here or there.
Zero Series = Random Cyber Elf, GO!
ZX = Umm... Giro? Maybe one of the main characters from either game?
Ryuusei no Rockman = Harp Note

Cyber Elf Jackson would be cool as an assist trophy

[Xero]

My Music for Mega Man.

MMPU Intro Stage/Ending - MMPU
Dr.Wily Stages 1-2 - MM2
Dr.Wily Stages 3-4 - MM3
Intro Stage - MM7
Robot Master Melody 1 - MM1
Robot Master Melody 2 - MM2
Intro Stage - MM&B
Mr.X Stages 1-4 - MM6

[ASR]

Xero, realistically, we'll get two tracks per 3rd-party character.

[Xero]

My music says otherwise.

[NovaMan XP]

At least 4 or 5 different themes will be for each stage.

[ASR]

Forgot about the plan with stages. Hmm... carry on, Xero.

[Orange Devil]

If they put in anything other than Classic or X I will be SO disappointed. It's like finding a bottle of water in the desert, but realizing that it's urine.

[Xero]

That is exactly how I was thinking.

[Fatso]

I would add the Final Battle from MM5 to that list, as well as possibly the Dark Man stage theme.
