ANOTHER 3rd party fanclub? Sigh.. here we go again.

The fact that Megaman has to EARN those abillities kind of kills the whole idea for the character. Arent characters supposed to have their OWN moves? (That might be why Ness is out or is being nerfed.) Megaman seems alot like Samus honestly. Both chargable blasters, in suits, yeah. Also, I dont think moves from spinoffs count. Well, the only thing unique from Megaman would be the charge BLAST from the blaster and the sword. Everything else would be boring.
Marvel VS Capcom would like a word with you.

Also, Sakurai said Geno would be first party. Try again.

Seriously, if you want to discuss whether Megaman is deserving of being in Brawl take it into the official Megaman thread. This thread is just for discussion of the possibility of him being revealed at the anniversary event.

I think Sakurai likes to save huge news like that for times when he conveniently also has some bad news. Like Sonic and the delay, or replays and only five target tests.

ever since he closed the poll, and grouped the suggestions together.
I guess you're right, but technically I'm pretty sure Square owns the rights to Geno. Still, if they get the permission then maybe Sakurai considers him a first party character anyway because the game was published by Nintendo. It would be weird to see him with the Mushroom Kingdom logo though, standing next to Mario, Luigi, Peach and Bowser...

Honestly though, I have no idea how Geno became so popular. Did he really have that large a fanbase before the question of the Brawl roster came up?

Let make this thread as information center of Megaman Event (that might happens in few hours)

Please dont get your hope high for this announcement but hopefully we will hear something about Brawl.

Oh snap, I forgot about this. I hope Mega Man is in it. Sadly we won't get an update for him until Sakurai announces another delay.

Metroid came out a year before Mega Man.

Anyways, Geno wasn't even that good in his own game. Why there's such a following, I'll never know. I mean, I like the character and everything, but not to that extreme.

When you think of the NES, Mega Man is one of the games that pops into your head. I'm pretty sure that most people wouldn't think of Super Mario RPG thinking of the SNES. Even then, more people have probably played Mega Man rather than Super Mario RPG. I swear, no one I ever talk to has played that game but me. This is all just baseless speculation, but still...

It would be great if for the anniversary, he was added to brawl.
That would be a big smash with the community; at least I'd be entertained.

It would. I hope it would be megaman X, since he has more moves and what not, though if megaman was added it'd be the original megaman. I do believe all the characters will play a role in SSE, so what would megaman play? Lol Dr. Wily in this? Or Sigma?

I think another 3rd party character would be out of the question.

The event started a couple hours ago, and I think it ends at 2AM EST Sunday(3 and a half hours from now). It doesn't seem like there's live coverage anywhere, but if we don't hear anything by tomorrow we can assume there was no mention of Brawl. Keep in mind that Dec. 17th is the actual anniversary of MM1's release in Japan, and there's a countdown to that date on Capcom's 20th anniversary site.

Hummm. . . Is this the only event for mm 20th anv? If so than I can see there being a conformation. . . the update on monday with MM would make up for and explain the last 3 weeks of no character updates/ mostly lame info (mostly. . )

Well, you could explain the lame info as accounting for the five people that don't go to this site, surf youtube, and didn't go to E for All. We can only hope though.

I hope that's the case. These updates have been horrible over the last few weeks (not counting Lucas and DeeDee).

They weren't horrible. We got updates, they showed new things, what's the problem?

Yes, it IS horrible!
And indeed, they didn't show anything new in 1/2 of the updates! Nor anything useful in 3/4 of them.

Not saying they're horrible, just that the last updates was.

Your sir got the right idea.

Here is some human logic programmed into a computer

if (update != New_Character_Update) {
update = ***tty;
}

if (week != reveal_new_character) {
week = ***tty_week;
}

I said it then, I'll say it now. Miyamoto's birthday is much more important than this event. Look what we got then.
Miyamoto's birthday has no relevance to Smash. It's not even his series. On the other hand, if Mega Man is in it's quite possible that Capcom would want to announce it first, and if so this event is a likely time for that to happen.

I dunno, but I'd like to know your reasoning behind that statement.
hes sayin that because a member here named NyaseNya claimed to have inside info sayin mega man wasnt in brawl. A mod locked that thread.

I know of at least two other sources confirming mega man in brawl so its all just BS
