There are two things I want for Megaman:
1) Classic Mega Man. X was cool, but I don't really care for him as much as Classic.
2) No absorbing powers. He already has a enormous movepool, he doesn't need to be a copycat.
he woudn't be a copy cat, Kirby gets the same exact power as the person he sucks up. megaman would get a buster cannon upgrade depending on the person.

for example kirby sucks up bowser and gets bowsers flame. megaman gets a flame thrower.

or Kirby sucks up pikachu and gets thunder shock. megaman gets a buster shot that has a electric element to it or shoots shots like pikacus before it hits the ground, when it hits the ground it discharges instead of traveling.

Sonic has an enormous movepool as well, and three of his moves are all variations of spins...

Maybe they'll just give him access to the original six powers in some way...? Seems likely, right? Heh, though giving him Beat or Rush as a triple jump would be interesting to see...

Yea Megaman doesn't really need the copy ability. Why use someone else's abillity when you have superior moves of your own? And besides stealing people's moves is not reliable, as seen with Kirby. Anyways....Megaman for Brawl!

Im not saying "give him the same exact power as Kirby" Im saying he should have the ability to get powers from others, as far as I know throughout megaman classic and X you got powers from every boss you defeated. If you want him to have powers he got from bosses instead of powers he got from other characters thats fine by me. It would make more sense now that I think about it anyway...
but he shouldnt have their powers as a move set, It just doesnt make sense to me.
also wouldnt he have to change color for every power anyway?
all im saying is that getting powers is a part of megaman, we shouldnt take a part of him cause"kirby can do the same" thats like saying he shouldnt have his megabuster because samus has a arm cannon thing as well.

True. It makes no sense. Megaman (or X) would have plenty of their own moves at their disposal, like the Tornado Hold and plenty of other things.
Perhaps he could gain new abilities as he played through the Subspace Emissary?

Yea, Megaman has that tornado move, plus his other physical moves, and cannon moves. Don't think he really needs nonreliable copied moves from other ppl.

Btw, can't Megaman fly with rockets boosters from his shoes? I saw blaster holes on the bottom of his shoe, can someone confirm if this is true for me?

uhhh...that doesnt seem right, if he gets powers from story mode he should get it in multiplayer. I mean, wouldnt it be kind of story mode heavy on that one? I thought that the super smash brothers series was about multiplayer...

you dont need to keep the powers if you dont think they are reliable, all it does is give him versitality.

If there are non reliable moves to use, and Megaman has better options on hand, then why even bother using this copy abillity. Not using it is only wasting this move slot, a better move could be used instead of this to better suit him.

*sigh* I guess I am the one of the only ones who support him having the power, It just seemed essentail to me because he had it in like all his games( that are worth mentioning) and I felt like it was a strength of his, outside of his cannon. but do you guys feel the same about kirby's copy ability?

Don't worry man, I don't mind the ability, its actually pretty cool. But the problem is, after seeing that Kirby at high levels of gameplay rarely use the copy ability, I find that it will be useless for Megaman as well. Besides you can give him a better move instead of that. Not all the moves copied from people will be reliable, so yea.

If they can implement this copy ability in a good way, then sure why not. However, designing different versions of the copied move will take more time, unlike how kirby copies the move exactly without extra development.

Capcom either announces Megaman in Brawl, then after that then Nintendo has everything prepared for the update, put the update on after the announcement. Or Capcom announces Megaman, and Nintendo updates later, or simply the announcement is on the 19th.

But they said prepare yourselves, it is HUGE AND SURPRISING news, how can it not be? But I have a feeling it won't be Megaman, hope I'm wrong.

How can it not be? People lose respect for Capcom? Wrong. You have no reason to believe that's what it is, other than you want it.

Looking for our princess in another castle.
I think the news may have something to do with Bionic Commando. Just a guess.

And someone asked for a moveset? Moveset served.

Neutral A-(1%-10%, depending on how charged it is)Mega Buster. Can be charged.
Forward A-(5%-10%)Rolling Cutter. Flies in a complete circle and returns to megaman.
Up A-(11%-14%)Super Arm. Creates a Guts Block that can be thrown by pushing A again.
Down A-(7%-20%)Search Snake. Sends out a snake that crawls along any surface it touches. Disappears on contact with an enemy.
Dash A-(5%-11%)Charge Kick. Megaman does a dash, hurting opponents in his way.
Forward A Smash-(17%-20%)Metal Blade. Shoots out a metal razor disc.
Up A Smash-(11%-23%)Flame Blast. Creates a tall pillar of flame where Megaman stands.
Down A Smash-(1%-2%)Skull Barrier. Creates a barrier of skulls that damage anyone who touches it. It disappears if Megaman moves.
Forward A Arial-(8%-12%)Gyro Attack. Sends out a spinning wheel.
Backward A Arial-(7%-18%)Slash Claw. Megaman does a twist/slash in the air.
Up A Arial-(5%-11%)Wild Coil. Throws two coils in random directions that bounce off of surfaces. Disappears upon touching an enemy.
Down A Arial-(11%-17%)Top Spin. Megaman does a spin in the air.
Grab-(N/A)Thunder Claw. Grabs the opponent and pulls them closer. Can also be used for tether recovery.
Neutral B-(11%-18%)Thunder Beam. Shoots out an electric beam.
Left/Right B-(23%-31%)Crash Bomb. Shoots a missile that will latch onto an opponent, much like like the gooey bomb. If the victim is hit, the bomb will come off. Has a medium lag.
Up B-(19%-20%)Hyper Bomb. Megaman throws a bomb. Bomb explodes within 5 seconds of throwing.
Down B-(N/A)Time Slow. Causes any enemies in range to move half as slow for a short time.
Final Smash-(Don't know how much damage these do on average)Astro Crush. Causes meteors to rain down on the stage, damaging any who touch one.

You know what annoys me to end?

People constantly comparing Megaman to Samus. Seriously, is there ANYTHING they have in common BESIDES their **** arm cannons? I swear, when people say Megaman would just be a Samus clone, I get ticked.

1. MM can charge and shoot while running, and he doesn't get flinched by it.

2. MM can copy the abilities of enemies upon defeating them.


1 and 2 should be enough to separate the two.

It doesn't annoy me, it gives me the perfect time to flam, pwn, and own them. That's why I love it.

LOL, everyone is a Samus clone at this rate. ZOMG, Link is a Samus clone. *cut from Brawl*

Samus is a Samus clone, they should remove her.
I'm tempted to sig that. You f***ing rock SiD! :laugh:

Huh? No way, I wouldn't say something as stupid as that. I only say "so and so would be a clone of so-and-so" when it's true, like say Mario and Dr. Mario.

(but why is Master Chief being discussed anyway?Freakin' Cloud has more of a shot at Brawl then he does...:p)

Don't forget that Samus can't charge while running in Brawl. In MP, yes.
But if X were to be included in Brawl, I'm positive he'd be included with the ability to charge shots while running and dashing.
Well, we don't know if Megaman can charge while running in Brawl...

Just Samus can charge in the games but not in Smash they could do the same thing to Megaman
