This is EXACTLY ...What the hell is wrong with him?! This is EXACTLY how I imagined him in an SSB game! He actually looks better than his NES design. The NES sprites make him look like a child. And the detail on him is top notch. Why is everyone complaining about it? One thing, though, If Chris Cason actually IS going to be his final VA, then I really hope he will not screw him up, after seeing that he was the voice of the God Awful MM1 American Box art Megaman in SFxT. I'm sort of expecting him to sound like Sonic.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-70332523802985178912014-01-19T20:59:51.900-06:002014-01-19T20:59:51.900-06:00Except that totally didn't stop them from usin...Except that totally didn't stop them from using Pit's "most recent iteration," which would of been the GB game, and instead they came up with a completely new design that doesn't really represent the character's then appearance, but rather what they decided to change him into (for better or for worse).<br /><br />To me, this just again shows that people only seem to want to do things with Mega Man when it's 8-bit styled, which is exactly why the series is at a standstill; it's great for random throwbacks (I loved 9 and 10, however, I would've loved some new HD and/or hand-drawn sprites so much more) and fond memories, but when everything that wants to come out limits itself to the days of NES, then the series, quite simply, has no future.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-76405390673150601122014-01-19T13:03:27.799-06:002014-01-19T13:03:27.799-06:00Mr. Game and Watch says hello.

I'd rather wanted his pose that he mostly used in the later versions, but since Mega Man X uses that, I think the NES style is better enough. Besides I like his new designs which resembles to Ariga version's, its a lot more cooler and detailed than simple. Expressionless is fine...but I wonder what will his voice be? Will Sakurai add voices for him or will he be just a muted character like R.O.B.?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-86240099064220928392014-01-14T22:06:59.758-06:002014-01-14T22:06:59.758-06:00I really like the new design myself.

My biggest complaint is the expressionless bit, but even that isn't so bad, because it's not completely expressionless, more like very subdued expressions. <br /><br />But that's nothing compared to how happy I am to see the character in Smash. The work and effort put into including this character is clear. I appreciate both from Sakurai and his team.

I didn't even notice the blank expression until I saw people point it out, but really, is it that big of a deal when the game is going to be zoomed way out most of the time?
