Time to make the tournament's favorite disappear.
Locus Pocus!

Tbh honest the only Mega Man games I care about are the first few X games. Don't care about Legends or Battle Network at all.

 

[Deleted member]

Yep. And from a certain point of view Anakin died on Mustafar

And from a certain point of view he came back to life on Death Star II...and then he dies again, but literally this time.

Yikes, apparently the medical company my mom is working for is firing all the nurses and patients will no longer see nurses.

Zero dominated all the way to the end. Not to say Vile was bad either since his popularity helped. Both Axl (as expected) and Sigma had no support at all.

Now this one's going to be a bit controversial since it's from the first in Mega Man's internet adventures, Mega Man Battle Network. Your choices are Roll.EXE, Bass.EXE, Protoman.EXE, and Zero.EXE (Yes, Zero appeared as a Navi in the latter games).

There was a problem fetching the tweet

This one will run all night long with Mega Man Zero next (No Zero because there's no use having him again).

Zero was only in Network Transmission as far as the games, if I remember correctly. Though he was in some episodes of the cartoon series. I remember Mega Man stabbing the **** out of his doppelganger or something along those lines.

Bass.EXE is easily the best choice of the group. He's got the most diverse movepool that Mega Man.EXE can't normally use in some fashion. Though I prefer Protoman both in Battle Network and the classic games. Bass just has more unique aspects as a fighter. I would like to see Bass.EXE in a Marvel title as well, since NONE of the RPG Mega Man characters got in yet.

I doubt that Marvel Infinite would have Mega Man.EXE since Mega Man X is playable already, Bass would be a good follow up.

Tbh honest the only Mega Man games I care about are the first few X games. Don't care about Legends or Battle Network at all.

I really want to get the BN games, as I really liked the show when I was younger. I plan on getting physical copies of the games one day.

I would also recommend getting Mega Man X8. It put the series back on a high note.

That's the thing, I remember quite a lot of people saying that Bass.EXE would be the best Battle Network rep in a Marvel vs Capcom game because he's just as diverse and popular as Mega Man. Going for his Navi counterpart since he at least has a different design and wouldn't be a retread of MvC1 and 2 Mega Man.

Now that I have an issue with that since he was also one of my favorite "antagonists" in the series, though he was more of a rouge anti-hero like his Robot Master counterpart. Plus the cape, I see that as a vast improvement in design from the original.

I rundown of the character's history. If only because I really like looking a concept art. Especially for characters earlier designs. It's great to think about what would have been, or to gain a better appreciation for what was done, seeing as some potential designs can be outright awful.

Spoiler

I would say this design might have made her stand out a little more from Peach. Though the final design is fine as is.

The concept art for Starforce Mega Man was pretty interesting too. One of the designs looks similar to that Xover Mobile game. But the one from the far left is probably my favorite. It looks really sleek and cool, but the final design, especially in the third game works really well.

As far as concept art goes, that's the only one involving Rosalina's design in the prototype stages, so unfortunately I would not be able to provide much more than that in regards to concept art specifically.

The only other piece of concept art I can think of that would be worth talking about is this one from Galaxy 2, which seems to suggest a cut time-travel plot involving Rosalina (though that isn't confirmed). Whatever this concept this was supposed to represent, it's likely it was cut because Yoshiaki Koizumi was not the director of this game (IIRC he was the producer, and he remains the overall producer of the Mario franchise right now), and Miyamoto took more precedence on the game's development. Miyamoto has commented on how he specifically requested that Galaxy 2 have less story elements than the original, meaning whatever this artwork represented had to go as part of that.

That's a bit of a shame. Especially since Koizumi does add good lore and junk to series he worked on. He's had a huge impact on the Zelda series from Link to the Past up until Wind Waker.

And she can't find a new job because she's overqualified

"Not accepting someone's bigoted views is having a political stance"
This is what these tags are saying

 

[ChikoLad]

"Not accepting someone's bigoted views is having a political stance"

I mean...yes?

Even if you agree with the decision to remove JonTron, it was absolutely a political stance. That's not an inflammatory statement, their statement is the textbook definition of a political stance.

We would like to make absolutely clear that we do not endorse or support JonTron’s personal viewpoints and that, as an external fan contributor, he does not represent Playtonic in any capacity. Playtonic is a studio that celebrates diversity in all forms and strives to make games that everyone can enjoy.

 

[Knight Dude]

To be fair, it could have to do more with the protagonists fighting a "big bad business man" type of character, which could have a bunch of jokes about the game industry.

 

[Wario Bros.]

Well, I was wrong about Konami not fixing Super Bomberman R's controller input delay in multiplayer after the patch.

Turns out it happens when the internet connection is weak/bad.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Gooooood You dont know how mych I want Disgaea 5. Why donI have to wait. till maaayy

 

[Wario Bros.]

Playing Breath of the Wild reminded me of something: We have never gotten a handheld (I don't call the Switch a true handheld) Zelda game that isn't shot from a top-down perspective (not counting the Ocarina of Time or Majora's Mask remakes).

 

[Coricus]

I'm guessing Godwin's Law. It's territory seems to be getting a particular amount of use as a blanket label for "anyone who's a bigot" lately.

I mean yes, bigotry is deeply wrong, but I think there's a pretty big jump between being a person with a horrible view of others and anyone acting out on it in the ghastly ways the Axis did. No doubt there's a handful of bigots who would stoop to that level because humanity is certifiably insane, but most to all of them? People have slimy opinions more often because they live in a bubble and get scared of things they shouldn't than because they're sociopaths, I think even most bigots would be horrified at the concept of stooping that low. I'd even guess some of the actual people invoking Godwin's Law on THEMSELVES might not have a full grasp what on earth they're representing, like edgy kids but more redneck-y.

I mean, yes godwin's law is definitely overused, but when someone talks about how racial purity is needed then it's hard not to think of Natzi ideology in this case.

This is why I think words such as bigot, homophobic, racist, sexist etc. being used by far left SJWs so often is pretty bad. It softens the meaning of those words, so when people come across people like that, they don't take them all that seriously.

When I say I can see why those tags are there, I literally just mean "well Playtonic made a political statement that didn't please everyone, and they haven't handled the aftermath well, so people are probably trolling their Steam tags now in spite and that's why those tags are there now".

my card isnt supported, sadly. So its eather buy it off Amazon, Buy Japanese eshop cards or wait pff

but the wait is killing me

 

[Coricus]

I mean, yes godwin's law is definitely overused, but when someone talks about how racial purity is needed then it's hard not to think of Natzi ideology.

Eugenics involving racial purity used to be a pretty popular ideology. There were even nutjobs that did incredibly horrible things even in places like the US to further their ends.

Then World War II happened and everyone shut the heck up and dropped it like it was made of burning poison ivy.

People think they want things they don't actually want.

I mean, there were a handful of Nazis and people on other fronts that actually regretted the mess they were in and tried to lessen the damage, so it's not like even they weren't human, but we all know when anyone says Nazi they mean Hitler and certain members of his higher ups and. . .very few people have a good grasp on what they did and truly want to be those guys, LOL. There's a reason an entire planet can come together in unison across all cultures and political boundaries just to say Hitler is the worst man who ever lived. And there's a reason why many Nazi defenders simply pretend what they did didn't happen.

And well, considering the aforementioned horrible situations America is still at a net improvement over the last century. Just forgetting the lessons of the past far too fast.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I hate pokemon go

It took me almost a year to get 400 candies to evolve magikarp. I actually had a perfect magikarp

and it's attacks are useless. Neither are stab, and neither are strong.

Dragon Tail and Crunch.

If I had got Dragon Tail and Hydro Pump it'd be a little useful

But Crunch is worthless

 

[Aetheri]

Had some issues connecting to the internet with my Switch...looked it up online turns out I only had to restart the system to resolve the problem and it's working fine now...

I hope these issues don't persist, especially down the line when I have to pay for online services...

anyways...had some fun with Wolf Link last night as well as a couple other doges...

I'm quite popular with the local canines in this game it seems... #BreathoftheWild #NintendoSwitch pic.twitter.com/cYhnCgNc35

[Chrono.]

On Megaman getting a 2nd/3rd character in MvCI: Yeah I definitely vouch for Bass.exe as well.

Great moveset potential and would avoid feeling same-y unlike Classic Bass or Classic Protoman imo. Megaman.exe is good but he would feel like a retread of Megaman Volnutt who is someone fans would rather see and Protoman.exe is just a far less popular Zero (who, MvC3 brokenness aside, should come back).
