But the i step back, tried to know the why and what, thinked trough. A few years ago, Capcom was in troublesome financial situation. they where like 15 millions left before bankrupt (you'll think that's a lot, but that's very low for a big name video game company). So doing more megaman games was'nt a priority and they focused on more mainstream game like street fighter, because sure, megaman is emblematic, but i'll not call it mainstream either, ask your neighbor about Mega he'll probably say "he is a video game character, right?" without knowing more, that's not like mario or pokemon. So i was saying, capcom focused on more best-selling games, and crossovers games like project X Zone and all the capcom vs[insert whatever here]. <br />Now notice that they managed to put a megaman character in all theses crossover games (most often X), they even had megaman be in nintendo Smash Bross, which as for today is the most mainstream game to have starred a megaman character. And they vetoed a megaman cartoon, this one. <br />Sure, one the perspective of already megaman fans like us, the cartoon is going to suck, but what's important is that all the kid watching a tv show by Man of action (quite famous for being creators of ben10), probably aired in cartoon network or a other big channel, will know about the existence of Megaman! Just ask a kid now if he know who is megaman, a random average kid, not you little brother who knowe verything about megaman because you had him play all the game, he will at best say "that's a video game character, right? or "that's a character from Smash bross!" and at worst "i have no idea what it is". Now, with that show the name megaman is going to again sound familliar to everyone. Sure they will have a wrong idea of it because the cartoon in itself not the best thing that happened to megaman, but that's a other story, and at least they will be able to say "yes, megaman is the blue kid robot with a buster on is arm and a helmet he was created by dr light", all you'll have to do is to correct them when they'll say that is name is Aki.<br />And, maybe, maybe one day, when the name will be know enough to ensure good sales, a new game will come out. for now, they're just working on giving the name some exposure.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-45555872887554581802016-09-13T05:40:07.075-05:002016-09-13T05:40:07.075-05:00even if Inafune was not the one to come up with ev...even if Inafune was not the one to come up with everything, and did not "invent" megaman, he is still a major figure on it, and contributed largely to Megaman being what it is. That's not because he did a very disapointing game recently that we have to denied the good things he did in the past.<br />That said, let's not go in creator worship either. That's not because he have done good things in the past that we have to go as if all the blame go to Capcom and the fall of Megaman is just due to is absence.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-14214820845064423952016-09-13T05:34:48.598-05:002016-09-13T05:34:48.598-05:00@geta, my problem, as oposed to the opinion of som...@geta, my problem, as oposed to the opinion of some others comenters, is that i find it wrong actually because it is aimed at children to intoduce them to the franchise. because, hey, if we where to watch this, we will watch this while KNOWING that this is different from the "real" megaman. Now take the case of a child, he don't know about megaman, and watch the show, he will automatically assume that Megaman is like this. I just remember all theses guys who where firmly convinced (to the point to arguing with game fans )that megaman was a cyborg with a adolescent appearance instead of a kid like robot, that protoman was a vilain and other stuff like this. why? Because they had been introduced to the franchise trough that Ruby Spear Cartoon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-30578894120623582732016-07-31T14:52:04.140-05:002016-07-31T14:52:04.140-05:00Same here. :(Same here. :(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-41361352182791930342016-05-29T23:46:35.584-05:002016-05-29T23:46:35.584-05:00Man, I really don't know about this.

I don't understand this.<br /><br />What's the underlying new meaningful theme that this potential new series could have? The Classic timeline went into how robotics could change the world. The Battle Network timeline focused on the risks of an evolving internet.<br /><br />But this is basically looking like something Classic already did, but just with a new coat of paint (that is stylized in a way that is almost insulting to the intelligence of today's youth). If it's really just something new for the sake of being new, I don't see this taking off.Alilatiasnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-39793009940480131242016-05-29T22:54:21.114-05:002016-05-29T22:54:21.114-05:00Frankly I'm excited at seeing that we're g...Frankly I'm excited at seeing that we're getting a Mega Man cartoon next year. I work full-time and have to worry about car payments, so I miss the days when I used to just get up early every Saturday morning to watch some fun action cartoons. As much as people love to shit on the Ruby Spears cartoon, it was still exciting to watch as a kid, and that's what I want: excitement.<br /><br />I couldn't give two shits about Man of Action or the other cartoons they've made. Big shit.

Two is the fact that its devs act like it is honoring establishments of the series. <br /><br />Why is Mega Mini not a mechanical insect or something to go along with the theme of Mega Man being helped by assist robot animals? Because they don't know the theme or don't care to play off that theme that's why. The show just uses generic kids cartoon tropes based on the ruff idea of a robot boy and parts Mega Man's basic character design (luckily).<br /><br />What will it take for people to say No dammit NO! If they wanted to make something completely different than Mega Man outside of the bare minimum of a few concepts, than why not call it Mega Man Neo the "awesome" hip Mega Man spinoff or something like that, or better yet a completely original series. Anything else is just a cash grab and muddying the name of a perfectly well established and beloved series.
