The Mega Man in SSB Wii-U and 3DS Discussion Thread

[LaniusShrike]

X's default double-tap dash is basically Fox's side special. It'd work out well.

I didn't even know there were Zero games, man. I don't think I've really played any Mega Man games that weren't on the NES or SNES. Looks like Mega Man got some pretty cool designs after I stopped playing.

In any case, I'm pretty sure if Mega got in, his primary design would be his Classic appearance. That's the one most closely associated with Nintendo for sure. It'd be awesome if he got tons of alternate costumes, though!

Yeah, I personally think that Megaman X and Megaman Starforce had the coolest character designs. I'm not too fond of the Zero art style though. My personal favorite Megaman design of all is Megaman X's suit in Megaman X Command Mission.

I really hope that this design is used again someday.

I'd like to see Mega Man uses alternate costume of his counterpartner as well.

Not necessarily the characters are alternates of Mega Man, but that Mega Man would have designs from those games to fit him. Meaning that X's armor could be modified to fit him (and if X got in, he could have an alternate costume where the Classic armor modified to fit X).

Thanks a bunch for the Shortiecanbrawl poll information, Super Smash Bros. Fan! I made a new post for it on the MM4SB website.

Getting closer to E3... we'll soon find out the game's real name!

i wonder what stage would be used if megaman is in the game?

Well there's the Robot Museum, Dr. Light's Lab, Dr. Wily's Fortress, Central Highway, Kattleox Island, and the Internet(Battle Network series)

Cut Man's Stage

Cut Man's Stage

QuickMan stage anyone?

 

[FlareHabanero]

Robot Museum would in theory be the most ideal choice considering it can best show the toning of a Mega Man game by demonstrating the varies themes often associated with the Robot Masters. Kind of like the version used in Mega Man & Bass where you traveled through varies rooms based around different stages throughout the series.

 

[FourStar]

yeah sounds just about right. im so excited for E3

[God Robert's Cousin]

Robot Museum seems pretty ideal, considering the huge variety of robot masters within the series. Possibly another Pokemon Stadium-styled stage? I'd certainly be fine with it. Alternatively, Central Highway is definitely one of the most memorable levels in the whole franchise, and would be a good way for representing Mega Man beyond just the Classic series.

I'd be honored to be on the supporter list, if you guys are still doing that. Honestly, there isn't no good why Mega Man shouldn't be the 3rd party character of choice in SSB4.

 

[LaniusShrike]

Does anybody have an idea if 3rd party inclusions become more expensive if you include more things like other character cameos? There's a chance that having a stage like the Robot Museum could get seriously costly if it shows every Classic Mega Man character.

Hmm, chances are that a mere cameo shouldn't cost extra if the playable character already shows up. And they wouldn't need to show every character either. But I wouldn't be surprised that a stage in itself would cost a little extra. I just doubt the nickle and dime-ing per character cameo.

 

[Guybrush20X6]

It all depends on how much effort they're willing/able to put into modeling. On the Sonic Franchise they Modeled Green Hill Zone, Sonic himself and Gave Tails, Shadow, Knuckles and Silver more detailed skin so it's not impossible but the key here is that Sonic's cast already had 3D models. The only time Classic Mega Man appeared in 3D he was done is chibi-kawaii-desu style for the PSP game, Megaman Powered Up. They've recreated Pit and the Ice Climbers in 3D so hopefully they get Mega Man in early and have a lot of time to model it all.

 

[Roberto zampari]

I don't made those comics, i found it in deviantart. Those comics are very funny about Megaman in Smash Bros 4: They used the robot masters to fight against the sandbag. Check this:

Do you think that put robot masters in Smash Bros 4 is a bad idea?

 

[God Robert's Cousin]

Unless they make Gutsman an Assist Trophy, who is the only robot master with enough notability to have a role above the other 79+ robot masters, I don't see robot masters being anything other than just trophies and stickers.

Unless, of course, Robot Museum is Mega Man's stage, in which case they can be littered throughout the stage.

With a stage I'm still not sure what to exactly bet on. Wily's Castle makes the most sense, but it changes each game so there's no consistency to go off of.

Personally I've been playing around with the idea of a stage called "Year 20XX" in which you switch back and forth between the original Robot Master stages (Cut/Guts/Ice/Bomb/Fire/Elec) Castle Siege style.

 

[LaniusShrike]

If they make a Mega Man assist trophy, I think it'd probably be Proto Man.

In Adventure mode, I wouldn't mind seeing a lot of the Met enemies.

 

[Deleted member]

i wonder what stage would be used if megaman is in the game?

Not sure. I'd say that Wily's Castle and Robot Museum are the two most likely addition, with me leaning towards Wily's Castle (though I'd much prefer Robot Museum). If we get X, Central Highway is pretty much guarantee.

I'd be honored to be on the supporter list, if you guys are still doing that. Honestly, there isn't no good why Mega Man shouldn't be the 3rd party character of choice in SSB4.

Adding you to the list now. Looking forward to seeing you post more.

And yeah, Mega Man is the best they come for third-parties.

I've forgotten about that. Chances are that's going to be very expensive to do, which makes me lean even more towards Mega Man being planned early on if at all. I really don't think a last-minute addition can be pulled with Mega Man.

Pretty funny commentary. Mind linking to the pictures so I can put them in the fan section and give them credit for the comic?

I think if they did that, I'd rather they do that with all ten games (for example, Metal Man as the Mega Man 2 stage, Snake Man as the Mega Man 3 stage, and Splash Woman with the Mega Man 9 stage).

Did have an idea similar to that for my Wily's Castle concept back on the old thread. Not sure if I still want to use it anymore though, it was just way too complicated. For the part the idea that I just mentioned is a simplified version of it.

Out of curiosity should any possible stage be rendered with 8bit graphics similar to MM8Bit Death Match, completely redone like in Powered Up, or have a mix like Green Hill Zone (Brawl)?

I'd want to see the stage completely redone with 3D visuals. Part of the hype surrounding Mega Man's inclusion is that the world of Mega Man would be taken into 3D.

 

[Guybrush20X6]

I want a full 3D stage but I see it been done like the Mushroom Kingdom stages in Melee

 

[Deleted member]

Shortie's poll has updated with 480 votes for characters.

It's looking as Mega Man is going to stay in 2nd place (although to be fair, the poll is only two days old), which is pretty good for the Blue Bomber.

 

[Opossum]

Just wanted to share this, simply because I love this guy's work, but here's an orchestral remix of Dr. Wily's theme.

The Sniper Joe series could also appear as enemies too.

[LaniusShrike]

These are classic enemies, definitely. And those bat-orb creatures! I would love to see some Robot Masters as adventure mode bosses too... that'd be awesome.

Do you guys think it'd be possible to have Bass as an alternate costume? He already has so many things to pick from, but I always liked Bass a lot.

 

[Roberto zampari]

Ask to that person, but who knows.

WHICH MEGAMAN BOSSES COULD BE INCLUDED IN THE STORY MODE?

1)Yellow Devil
2)Mecha Dragon
3)Wily Machine
4)Several Robot Masters (must be the fighting polygon team)

 

[LaniusShrike]

Ooh, Yellow Devil could be good. I would love to see him made in modern 3D.

Bass is definitely a possible costume choice for Megaman. Same for Protoman. Though I would personally prefer if one of the other Megamen where to be chosen as his alt costume. Or his normal clothes or something like that. As for bosses, If I had to be realistic I would bet on the Yellow Devil or one of its incarnations. Or that Robot Dragon from Megaman 2. Though it'd be cool to fight the likes of Shadowman, Fireman, Tornadoman and other robot Masters.

Pretty good. I'll make sure to put this up in the OP. I could see a mix of orchastra and rock used in the remixes.

I'm thinking Dr. Wily being one of the bosses would make sense.

Okay, so I was looking at some articles in regards to Street Fighter X Mega Man's development, but haven't found anything that would keep it from being easily as refuted as PsychoIncarnate did. Pretty frustrating since I have to discuss Street Fighter X Mega Man in some fashion, yet it wasn't enough.

Perhaps I can mention that Capcom of Japan would have not allowed the project to go on if they hated the franchise? It's not great, but might be something. Also, has there been any indication that Capcom of America has sent the amount of downloads to Capcom of Japan and has COJ mentioned anything about Street Fighter X Mega Man?

 

[Johnknight1]

Yellow Devil and the Mecha Dragon would make great mini-bosses.

Actually, anything from Mega Man classic or X would make great mini-bosses (because everything Mega Mans fits SO WELL in Smash Bros).

 

[Guybrush20X6]

My idea for a stage is the Mecha Dragon Fight from Mega Man 2 with larger respawning platforms. If the dragon was in 3D that would be the best thing ever but it could work as a giant sprite for nostalgia.

Ooh, that could be rather different. I probably wouldn't play on the stage too often, but it'd be a fun stage to have. Tons of aerial play.

megaman i think would really help in the story mode. just nothing can go wrong with megaman in the story

alright, what if megaman's circuts were re-programmed into a bad guy, and someone had to upload his old self back into him?

wait... that's awesome!

 

[LaniusShrike]

Yeah, that definitely seems like something that could happen in a story mode scenario... Dr. Eggman (Sonic's robot-obsessed villain) could hack into Mega Man, R.O.B., Metal Gear, and Samus's power suit and create a little army. Zero Suit Samus would have to team up with Solid Snake to infiltrate enemy lines and recover the hacked robots.
