To get discussion started, how would you revive the mega man series?

Make a game that included all of them + more

Make a new game

Or even more than one

That's a tough question because there is no short term solution. Capcom could easily please one corner of the fanbase and simultaneously piss off another. Let's say Legends comes back; those fans cheer and eat it up while *everyone else* moans. I think it will take multiple projects to satiate demand, i.e a few games from a few diff series.

Make something like how 9 and 10 were, but focusing on Megaman X instead.

>new SNES MMX games
here. just take my wallet.

HD port of Maverick Hunter X and Powered Up bundled together on consoles people actually own and with actual Marketing.

hey dude, next time can you hold off on posting a new thread until the old one reaches image or bump limit? that's the general rule of thumb for all threads in Veeky Forums

DAY-CHAN IS THE CUTEST! CUTEST!!!

New PROPER game with a porper marketing campaign.

>HD
I'd eat a shitty 3ds port up to be honest with you.

Day-chan sucks.

LIES

But it's true, user.

BUT IT'S NOT TRUE.
DAY-CHAN IS CUTE! DEAL WITH IT.

search your feelings, you know it to be true!

How would you market a mega man game?

That's not what cute looks like, I'm afraid.

/v/'s at it again.
I fully agree with that OP

Given the situation we are in now, I would first to make sure it's a proper game and not some port of the classics again.
The game would be either a new series or Classic 11
With that out of the way, I would make an announcement first: contacting all the gaming sites within my reach to make the news spread.
I would also make tv ads to air in channels within my target audience(Pre-Teens, Teens and Older fans);
I wouldn't link it to the cartoon unless I adjusted the gameplay for small kids, giving it an easy mode maybe.

I always sucked in the marketing department, I even flunked that class in college.

IT'S A BIG, FAT LIE!
AND DAY-CHAN IS CUTE! CUTE IS EXTREMALLY VARIABLE FROM PERSON TO PERSON.

By not being completely retarded and selling to american older fans instead of just japanese eight year-olds.

You're pretty dedicated.
I can't continue to poke fun at someone so dedicated.
Please accept my apologies.

It's ok, no hard feeling.
I understand why someone wouldn't like him too.

Long as its' not 8 bit.

This. Mega Man 11 needs to be MM7 style.

This is what 10 should have been.

>not wanting it to be in MM8 style

>make good games
>???
>profit

We need to have 7 style first.
Then we can have 8 style.

Make a classic game for starters. that's the safest way. Then finish legends 3. maybe port legends 1 and 2 as well. make x9 after that.

>maybe port legends 1 and 2 as well
Well, I mean, they did already.
Not that porting it to the PSP and never releasing that port in the West did anything for us.

I meant ports for nintendo consoles.

>failed marketing
>can't even market husbando properly
figures

alright, good thread. somebody make a new one already

We just started this one. Sit the fuck down, user.

Where and when am I supposed to be on the lookout for whatever Inti is announcing?

M-Meanie!
I DON'T NEED TO MARKET DAY-CHAN, BECAUSE I'M NOT SELLING HIM!

I'll just sit here and waggle

11 PM EST, 8 PM PST.
Apparently their twitter will be the one place to look so you for-sure don't miss it.

Maybe their twitch channel? Not sure about that, they never really specified.

>Playing ZX for the first time in years
>Not having any difficulty getting through it despite only being able to beat it on easy when it came out

Jesus, I was really that awful at games only 10 years ago?
I'm ashamed of my younger self.

You meant ZX or ZXA
ZXA is a pain until you get a saber form, so it's understandable.
ZX is a fucking cakewalk tho.

No it was ZX, I had no problems with beating Advent back then.

is there any reason to use regular X over the fourth armor in X5?

No.

Make a new game where you can fuck Zero's ass

This is a blue board, user.

Also, that's a small Z-saber

challenge or if you prefer looking at his original design

I didn't actually click on this image until that other user replied.
I thought it was Zero wrapped up in a dark colored blanket.

I don't know what they were thinking in bringing back Beck. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.

Maybe because of the Redash animation?

>Nobody buys Mighty Gunvolt Burst because of MN9's taint
>Nobody buys the Striker Pack port on the Switch
>Gunvolt dies and we never get 3 despite the cliffhanger, just like ZX

Welp.
I'm gonna prematurely blame Con Man. I'm sure he was somehow involved, even if he "wasn't".

>Gunvolt dies and we never get 3 despite the cliffhanger, just like ZX
DON'T YOU FUCKING DARE.
Please... Enough.

nice size desu

>why doesn't anybody like me when i have a little something for everyone?

Because of your clunky gameplay, poor camera, and awkward 3D controls. Sorry. I know you tried your best, but your best wasn't good enough.

so if x7 was 2d and played like the megaman X games before it, x7 would be good?

Probably. They really needed to make X and Axl's gameplay different.

how would you make it different?

8 style is gross and rubbery.

Either 7 style or new 3D models a la DKC Returns (not like NSMB, the background and foreground are seperate as fuck)

As long as it's not NES style I'm good with either

>metal parts that flop around like goo
i hear ya

Make Axl's more focused on transformations and guns instead of having the same power as X.
Like, if enemy is around his size; he gets a new form. If enemy is bigger, he gets a new gun.

Anyhow, I'm going to sleep. G'night.

Will Vile ever be playable again?

threadly reminder that dsp is a megaman fan. let that sink in
not to mention he thinks x is an older rock and that zero is an older blues

It would've been cool if Axl's transformations, in both X7 and X8, got more use besides just for gimmicks or getting around obstacles to get to hidden items.

Like, if it could have functioned in a Kirby-esque weapon system where he can steal enemies' powers and use them without transforming into them entirely. Maybe he can copy a strong enemy's arm, and turn his own arm into a giant arm to smash enemies with, but only for a few attacks.
As I type this, I realize I'm describing a system similar to the Z-Knuckle in Zero 4.

No.

besides, we'll never have the voice of roger rhodes for Vile. he works at a canadian country music station now. Figures vile would have shit taste in music.

to be fair he only used to listen to 1 song and 1 song only

His taste is extra shit.

Though in all seriousness I feel like the edgy prick would enjoy industrial metal. or grunge from the 1990s if he ever finds a single shred of chill.

so, the shadow the hedgehog ost

>What are you talking about, son? This game is great!

Didn't someone contact him to see if he'd do some voicework for a Vile thing and he said his contract prevents him from doing it?

Thoughts on 8bit Deathmatch?

That was me actually. and yeah he can't do it unfortunately.

It's a solid game my guy.

>x badmouthed the game once, making vile hate him forever
deepest lore

wait i just read something

so in the story mode for this game you end up fighting the wily machines, and when you get to number nine it turns out that wily left it unfinished

if that isnt one of the biggest goddamn roasts ive ever seen

Welp, time to both Gunvolt games for the THIRD TIME

do the dlc stages in 2 if u havent already. theyre the stuff

thread's dead and we're almost sort of near the image limit, time for a new thread

...

It looks like they're bundling the OVA in with the Swich Striker Pack. I'm digging that new art as well.

And now I've found a clean version. I can see myself buying Gunvolt 1 for a fourth time.

>Gunvolt is 60 fps on the Switch
Fuck, guess I have to buy one now

>fpsfags
it's like 32 bits, it won't make a difference

>this kills the thread

But you posted and saved the thread, so no problem.

>It's Big 'surprise' is a Switch Port

i was surprised

...

...

It was a surprise.
ASG is going the same route as ZX and there is nothing we can do about

...

except buy their games and not be piratescum
