If I'm not mistaken, Megaman only lost to Sonic by a couple of votes. And Megaman has a strong fan base too, so he'd bring in alot of fans to play the game as well.
Sonic had more than 5, Geno had 4, Isaac came after Geno, Megaman had 2

Megaman is 4th on the list of 3rd Party characters

Not quite sure...
WHAT megaman for chrismas update in smash bros dojo i don,t think so because sakurai need keiji permission to use megaman in brawl for now on for this and it will be time to use megaman for the before japan release comes on jan 24 08 so their better think fast orit will be to late for now
...what???
Someone translate so I can respond...
This one is...messy...

EDIT: Nevermind...I got it...
They dont need Infuane's permission...
They need Capcom's...
Infuane doesnt hold the rights to the blue bomber...
For all we know...the podcast was a clever misdirect...

geno, even though he's owned by a 3rd party company, he's still a mario character,(hence why he was grouped up with the 1st party characters when the final list was organized) so he doesn't count.

and I never saw sonic on the poll (I assume he was voted for, but sakurai didn't mention him).
so megaman is really either the 1st or 2nd most wanted 3rd party.

Kenji may not own megaman, but I believe kenji most likely knows about megaman's inclusion in brawl, and he just misdirected us to cover himself up.

Yeah I just read the Kenji article. Um, I believe it. I'm not for Megaman I'll admit, just because I think he's too closely related to Samus.
*sigh*
It's amazing what people think of Samus, and her having clones :ohwell:
I'm just gonna say, Mega Man, or Dark Samus for that matter, aren't Samus clones..

Well, obviously Dark Samus colors might still happen, we don't know yet. I'll say that because its the only likely thing to be in Brawl.

Well think what you will, but there's some good arguments on the DS thread, just click my sig..

As for MM, I'm hoping Saki pulls off a miracle, and gets him as a secret character :chuckle:

well brawls coming out in almost less than a month in japan and snice the creator of megaman still hoping for a invite, its a safe bet that megaman is a no go unless they delay again and im sure we dont want that do we now considering there's almost just a month left till it's out right? Now you guys can speculate on other 3rd parties such as Geno and the ones that make sense to put in.

that's not the point.

y'know, I think I'm going to spare myself the trouble of all this and just make an entire topic explaining why everyone is taking this podcast too seriously.

That'd be awesome, but would the Mods let there be one? They'll probably say post it here >_<

if they allow an entire thread saying that megaman is deconfirmed, I think they'd allow a thread saying why megaman is not deconfirmed.

besides, most of the non-believers aren't even looking in this thread, and if they did, they most likely wouldn't bother to read any of the points made in this thread.

As long as you're gonna make a thread about how MM is not deconfirmed somehow, why don't you make some more saying Ness is in Brawl, and all characters have alternate costumes. Because, official words and confirmations mean nothing, as long as you're a fanboy.

I kind of agree with him. He's obviously been deconfirmed, so... there is no point to go on with this topic.

Because now that people are thinking the wario update means everyone has alts, even though it CLEARLY states it will be only Wario, it just shows me that people always assume the opposite of what an official source tells them. The Wario arguments are the same as the MM ones.

"____ is just lying"
"He's trying to surprise us"
"If I break the sentence down in this way, it can kinda, sorta sound like he's actually confirming this"

Same thing happened with Ness. I just don't get why people can't accept somehting when it is announced.

OH CRAP! I forgot... I have one thing to mention. You know that thing where sometimes Inafune would come to autograph stuff at promotional events? Yeah, he did it for Starforce in new york and he said Megaman getting into Brawl had nothing to do with him and that it was Nintendo's decision. I mean, you don't have to believe this, but I know that that's as much info as I personally got, just trying to help.

People read updates with preset motives. If the update goes against their desires, they fight it. The first step is to question the translation. From there, digging up ancient press releases in hopes of finding contradictions is another hope.

Inafune needs to clear things up now.
yeah, he really does. I'm not sure how much longer I can go with these n00bs saying megaman is deconfirmed without going insane.

Yea, it was Nintendo's decision as he said. They needed to request him, and they didn't.

*Sigh* Can't everyone just be patient and wait until Mega Man is announced or until the final roster is posted? He isn't deconfirmed until one of those happens. I'm getting impatient too, however.

On the official Capcom boards, the developers actually come into forums sometimes to talk to fans, one of them said pretty much the same thing. That since Smash Bros. is Nintendo's game that it's up to Nintendo to decide and that asking Capcom to put Megaman in Brawl isn't as effective as going to Nintendo. But, this was the US forum for Capcom so I'm not sure how much information they would have.

I wish. but people who think they're all smart will still try and force "ZOMG MEGAMAN DECONFIRMED" down our necks. Its a bit of a pain really.

It's not being smart, its the common sense ability to understand that when he is said to not in the game, he's not in it.

It's a bit fuzzy, but you all shouldn't refute the possibility of this information being true.

That's funny, because on a list of third party characters that Sakurai made mention of, *gasp* there was Geno of Super Mario RPG, and there was Isaac of Golden Sun

Well gee golly gosh darn diddly Batman, Square Enix owns the rights to Geno and Mallow, so regardless of him being in a Mario game, he is a third-party owned character and to be in the game Nintendo would have to contact Square Enix for the rights to the character, as he is third party property.

and guess what? He still got twice the number of mentions as Megaman!

lol failed logic what?

Yeah but seriously, the immense denial in this thread is ridiculous

don't know what translation you were looking at, since it's very clear that if you had half a brain, isaac is a 1st/2nd party character. so your logic still fails miserably


and geno is still a mario character. He grouped him as a ninendo character, and it's largely accepted, even among geno's fanbase, that he wouldn't count as a true 3rd party.

Of course Geno is a true Third-Party, he is owned by another company.

The fact that he was in a Mario game doesn't change the fact that another company owns the rights to him, and Nintendo would have to license the IP of the character from Square Enix in order for him to be in Brawl..and what would that make him? That would make him Third-Party

Regardless if Isaac is second or first party, that doesn't change that Geno had more mentions than Megaman for a Third-Party character addition, DeDeDe having one more than him (gasp, is DeDeDe in the game? Why, yes he is), with Ike and Diddy Kong having the same number of mentions as him (gasp again, Ike and Diddy are both in the game!)

The fact that Inafune said that Megaman is not in Brawl as far as he is aware should be reason enough for you to realize that the 3rd party character that got more mentions than him is the one Sakurai chose to put in the game; Geno.
