then you stop being a weeabo, and wait for the american version of brawl like everyone else, instead of importing it! >:U

and heck, stop buying japanese games in general, and buy a 360, with american games! >:U
I wasn't planning on importing,
I was planning on stealing it off the internet so I can spoil it for all you kids.
And I do own a 360, but the best American games certainly aren't on it.

Stop being a weeaboo, stop putting the Japanese on a pedestal, and start calling him Megaman like a true American.
I'm hardly a weeaboo. I'm a fan of Inafune. He didn't make any character named Megaman, especially because it's Mega Man. I've explained this several times before, but:
Capcom of America can't stick to names. They call Vile his Japanese VAVA in Xtreme, & they call Mavericks Irregulars once in X4. The name changes in the classic series didn't make sense & ruined the music theme. When EXE was localized the connection between Forte.EXE & Gospel.EXE was ruined, as only one was made an homage to their classic series counterpart in English. Finally, the Mega Man logo is ugly, whereas the Rockman logo repats no letters, & the red triangle is simplistic yet handsome.

Hmm, Ice Climber final smash.
Oh well, here's hoping to December 17th!
Then again, Sakurai's constantly mindgaming us :p
On a brighter note, it looks like the updates are finally starting to be better again. At least we got a Final Smash that we didn't know of yet.
Now they just have to keep getting better until they reach the awesomeness level that the next update can only be Megaman! :p

Not that I disagree with any particular point here...but in Capcom's defense, I find the English localizations of the names in the Phoenix Wright series to be fantastic... >.> Though granted, so far there haven't been enough games or spin-offs to present any...contradictions to any of the existing names they've picked out (oh, did I just make a Phoenix Wright pun there? Did I? DID I? I DID! DID YOU SEE IT?).

I was about to reply to this and chew you out for being a xenophobe but then I looked at who I was actually replying to.

Lulz. Sup :D


Personally I like the name Rockman better. The fact all the characters were named after musical terms is really awesome to me.

I agree that the original names are better, but the fact is that we don't live in Japan and should refer to the characters as they were translated.

R.M.B. were else?
Samus's suit is based on super metroid and zero mission actually. And Ike's look is based on his younger PoR look, Snake is based of MGS2, pokemon trainer is based on firered/leafgreen, and sonic (moveset-wise) is based on his old-school games.

If any megaman gets in, its a safe bet classic will most likely be the one. Besides, if sakurai was going with only newest, we would have someone like starforce megaman, or those megaman ZX advent kids.
well we actualy got quite a few fused looks, fox's looks have been fused, and I think samus's were a little as well.but I know this wont be done to megaman since the megaman(s) are all different people.

Stop being a weeaboo, stop putting the Japanese on a pedestal, and start calling him Megaman like a true American.
actualy, he is refered to as rockman in the english version of some of the older megaman titles.

Altough it's completely off-topic: I would like to see a Ghosts N Goblins themed stage. But HOLD IT! There IS a Ghosts N Goblins themed stage in Mega Man 7! Nice. ;)

EDIT: Is GnG even first party? Can't remember.
I think that GnG is third party, but I dont know much about it personaly so I may be wrong. I first heard of it on a game tap commercial.

man i just seen the update and one word explains how i feel.

F***!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
dont worry, there is always next time.

the one upside to todays update, I thought it was actualy pretty cool. summoning a giant Ice burg onto the stage, it has got to have some power and strategic value.

eh, if when megaman gets into the game, I think and hope he is called megaman. I never was a big fan of music, and I think NoA plans on nameing him megaman since more non gamers recognise the name.(at least I think so)

1. Stop calling Megaman "Rockman" unless your native tongue is Japanese or if you're just going to call him "Rock", which is also acceptable, because that's his actual name and the English versions actually do call him that. This is an English site, so use English.
2. Stop calling each other "weeaboos". That's just gay.
3. Where's Megaman already? :(

X2 had also the most...let's say "interesting" choices for mavericks. A crab? A snail? A centipede? And...a SPONGE??? Waaaay to obscure for me.

Don't forget Overdrive ostrich and Flame Stag. :laugh: Maverick wise, my favorite X game is still Megaman X 3. You gotta love Neon Tiger and Toxic Seahorse.
Shame on me. HOW could I forget the desert bird? ^^ At least there isn't a Maverick with the name "Dust Camel" or "Burning Tapir" ;)

And the best Maverick of all is... "surprise" Storm Eagle. :cool:

If we're going by former release dates, then don't forget the original Japanese release date of Nov. 22. By some off chance, it could still happen this week.
Nov.22
Dec.3
Dec.17


And choosing a favorite theme from the Megaman series is almost impossible for me. :p

Dust Man's Stage from Mega Man 4 and the Wily Stage Boss music from Mega Man 3.

Edit: Whooooooooo, 600 pages of pure Mega Man support! Well...kinda. :)

I don't know, there's been some pretty obscure ones besides the ones already mentioned:

1. Burning Rooster
2. Volt Catfish
3. Split Mushroom
4. the Amoeba guy from X6 (I forgot what his japanese name was)
5. Tidal Whale
6. Cyber Peacock
7. Blizzard Buffalo

Yeah, they came up with some goofy ideas but that's been the case with all the later Megaman games in their respective series. (Case in point: Spring Man, Clown Man, and Pirate Man.)

Bamboo Panda? I forgot about him. Rain Turtle was pretty weird too and there's also the Sunflower guy in X7... Man, I'm suddenly reminded why I love the Megaman games so much. XD
i love the rediculous bosses and boss names in mega man. it gives it character

Yeah... ever noticed how bosses from MMZ and ZX look similair, I mean its hard to describe it but they all look so similair...
they really do look a lot alike. and the art style is similar too, i dont think its terrible, but i like the classic and X style better. Especially in the Day of Sigma episode.

@storm eagle- put up a picture of that onion maverick! i wanna know what games he's from, thats outrageous! lol
