I really can't care that much that the series is basically dead. It had a good run.

In fact, it had SUCH a good run that it got run into the fucking ground in the case of the NES and X games.

But in that time we got the good NES games, we got 8, we got Mega Man & Bass, we got the good X games, we got the Zero games, we got the ZX games, we got 9 and 10, we even got some decent RPG spinoffs.

And now we have games that took the baton from Mega Man, like Shovel Knight and Gunvolt, and that took the concept even further. I don't think I'd even really want to play another Mega Man or X game at this point since they took those series as far as they could go without changing enough that they'd become a different series altogether.

Mega Man is one of gaming's best series, I'm fine just leaving it at that instead of dredging it up every other year for another nostalgia shot.

I'm inclined to agree. It's had its ups and downs, but there's been more than enough good games in the series to keep me happy for a long time.

There were people who expected otherwise?

Megaman had a good run, but you can already tell it ran for too long. The franchise became a convoluted mess of sub-series as far as I know as well and I don't think adding another Megaman game "just like the good old ones; look at these spiffy 8-bit sprites" or "it's just like the old ones; but with a fresh paint of coat" would have helped either way.

We already even have so many Megaman rip-offs with a few actually changing the core for the better, what's even the point? Just to have his face again on another boxart?

We already had him several times back then; I think it's time for the little guy to rest, even if only for a bit.

MM4
Gemini Man
MM7

Most of those sub-series were good though.

1, 2, 4, 7, MM&B and 9 all have consistently great music. Hard to pick a favorite.

All I need is ZX3 and MML3 then I'll stop bitching about no new games

Why can't we have something that changes up the formula big time for once? Why can't there be a 3D adventure style mega man game? Mario's had a good run to but he gets nothing but people defending him for more games.

What's your definite list, guys? Mine goes:

MM1-7
MM4&5 (Gameboy)
X1-5
Zero 1-4
ZX & Advent
Legends 1 & 2
BN 1-3

>Why can't there be a 3D adventure style mega man game?
Mega Man Legends already exists you know.

But did they really need to be Mega Man games? Legends and Battle Network could've just been their own series, and there wasn't really any reason to give X/Zero/ZX their own sub-series.

Like, they could have called X "Mega Man 9", they could have stopped the X series with 5 and made Zero the main series, and so on. And if the problem was the numbers were getting too high, maybe they could have tried just not making so many fucking games.


So here's a thought experiment: take all of the original series, X, Zero, and ZX and try cutting it down just to the games you consider essential. I want to see how the series would then look next to ones like the mainline Marios and Zeldas where you only get a big one every couple years.

I actually forgot about those but I meant something more like 3D world.

i swear i've seen this exact post but but i guess legends could of gotten away without being Megaman but battle network defiantly needed to be Megaman

>there wasn't really any reason to give X/Zero/ZX their own sub-series.
X series focused more on action instead of platforming
Zero brought back some platforming and brought RPG elements instead of gaining bosses weapons.
ZX has elements of Metroidvania
Each series has their own flavour, though that might not necessarily warrant them being their own series.

id say megaman 1-4 and 8 megaman x 1-5 and 8
then all of zero and zx.

Capcom could easily have made Powered Up 2 in like 2014/15 for 3DS and sold a bunch

No 9 or 10?

>only games that are essential to the series matter
Well in that case 0 games matter, in any series because video games are not essential to your life. You need to go back,

i forgot about those but i guess you could add those to and megaman and bass

No, that's not what I mean. I just want to see how the series would compare to others if you cut the crust out. Like what if Capcom had had a little more self-control and not made so many Mega Man games.

It's been a good 7 years tho, he's rested enough by now.

Literally what's the point? What ifs are so stupid. They made so many games because he was a beloved character, not so popular as Many other mascots so Capcom being a business and all kept trying to put him out there in new and interesting ways. Then there's only so much you can do before you have to start adding new characters and fleshing out their personalities (lol get it cause they're robots) it's the same answer you'd get for any long running series.

Why can't Capcom make a Megaman Battle Network game for phones? It would be incredibly cheap to make and do well. Just play the nostalgia card Yugioh Duel Links does.

im honestly glad they didnt Megaman battle network had a good end

The most two-dimensional boy in the world married the most one-dimensional girl in the world and had a child which they named after a clown. Truly, it was the most beautiful of endings.

I honestly have very mixed feelings about the Battle Network series. I think I like them. I'm pretty sure I enjoy them. Most of them. Half of them. I really do like them. They're fun. I just don't give a rat's ass about the majority of the characters.

i mean im not saying it was ground breaking but it was a sweet little ending and i really liked it when i was young

I didn't really feel anything for them.

I think the only character I cared about was Iris, if only because she was the only one who seemed to have something vaguely resembling dimension.

Not the user you're talking to but what games do you consider to have good characters? Most video games I play have laughable stories and characters to anyone that's read more than 5 books in their life. That's not why I play games though, I really don't think anyone should play games for the narrative. Like shit nigga Read. A. Book.

Something like the classic games don't need story. You pick it up and play. But something like Battle Network does. And if it's gonna have a story, then it should be a little better than what it was.

Basically, if you're gonna do it, do it right. Otherwise don't bother at all.
