http://www.themmnetwork.com/2012/01/10/mega-man-25th-anniversary-logo-revealed/
...to be honest, if this is the final logo, then I'm a bit worried. Does it mean that CoJ will continue to ride the nostalgia wave (which has long since died down, I think), when it's the absolute last thing they should be doing? And what was it doing in that train wreck of an MMX1 port? Was THAT one of those "things" Capocm had planned for the 25th?
-
Just means that so far, we can't be expecting a new hero.
15th had EXE, 20th had Shooting Star. Last we saw Rock himself, was 10th.
-
Looks cute to me.
-
I'm more worried about finding out that this year is also Street Fighter's 25th. Remember when Metroid turned 25 last year, and Nintendo made all kinds of homages and even hired an orchestra to record music from the series and play it live? Oh, that was Zelda...
:|
-
Pretty cool logo.
-
I'm cool with this, it's been a while since Classic Rock got his "main man" on, given the franchise is named after him and not one of his incarnations/Zero. Now, here's hoping that this year has some dramatically awesome news to make up for last year's chronicles of ineptitude.
-
Know what would be funny?
If Universe and Legends 3 weren't actually canceled and they were working on them in secret this whole time to release this year.
It's not gonna happen, but it would be awesome. Here's hoping that the fact they're even acknowledging him with a logo (which is more than Nintendo did with Metroid) is a sign of better things to come.
btw this year's also Kirby's 20th.
-
It certainly looks cute, and the 1up icon is certainly Iconic, but I'd be lying if I said it didn't worry me a little. That said, there's nothing wrong with "nostalgia" as far as the 25th logo is concerned, that's what the anniversaries are about. the logo looking nostalgic old school is totally fine. I'm worried though, that it might represent what Capcom has in mind for the anniversary.
(and considering where the logo was found, doesnt help)

Yea..... Not unless K.Inafune steps back up to Capcom and present a new MegaMan hero to them for the 25th, most likely will never happen. Or unless Capcom gives him the rights back so he can work on the game under his new company. But I doubt that will happen either. :-/
Capcom isn't known for originality any more. All they do now is crappy ports & crappy games, and a few that never make it outside of Japan. So Capcom would have to redeem themselves and earn our trust back before they can think about creating a new MegaMan hero for the franchise. :P
-
I like it. It's pretty cool...
-
Those fuckers should finally do some kind of awesome crossover game. NOT LIKE OPERATE SHOOTING STAR, BUT WITH ALL OF THE [tornado fang]ing MEGAMEN!
It doesn't have to be canon, I just want it to be fun with a decent enough roster of playable charas AND cameo appearances.
And no, I don't want another shitty 8-bit nostalgia riding game. [tornado fang] THAT!
Except, it's not gonna happen and they'll probably release an artbook or some [parasitic bomb].
[tornado fang]
I like it. It's pretty cool...
Of course you do, sweetie. Nobody is doubting that.
-
I don't mind the design. I just do not like the color choices.
-
Now that you mention it, what IS with the colors? Im surprised, no deep blue or gold for the logo like previous ones? Instead these odd pastels...
-
It's like candy colored.
-
Pink & pastels... I say, new game ROLLWOMAN.
-
That logo looks really lazy
-
That logo looks really lazy
Hmmmmm.....
How about a contest for RPMers to design a better one?
-
Capcom actually put effort into something Megaman related? Given it wasn't MUCH effort, but still: Capcom remembers the game series that put them on the map as a VG developer? Huh.
And yes, I would love to participate in a contest for a better 25th anniversary logo. Too bad I suck ass at logo design.
On a different note, lemme guess how this year will roll out: Classic gets another lazy sequel, MMX9 is announced only to get cancelled 4 months after, Mega is AGAIN rejected in favor of another Street Fighter character in the next iteration of MvC3, A possible Mega reboot is on the way and his new look is absolutely atrocious, Capcom cock teases us with the possibility of developing MMZX3 only to yank out our hopes from under our feet, And are still determined to believe Megaman is only profitable as a non-video game brand.
Yeah, me am very pessimistic. But its better than foolishly believing Capcom still cares about him.
*looks around* Man, I'm going to be flamed beyond recognition now.

Dude... calm the [tornado fang] down. It's just a logo. We know virtually nothing more. Yeah, Capcom has let us down regarding the franchise in the past, but getting so visibly angry over that is just... immature. I'm sorry, but though this be a Mega Man forum, it's still just a video game franchise.
That said, I have no clue what is coming this year for the series, if anything. I remain optimistic that something will be done, but I feel that rather than do all that (which would be a bad idea, as announcing, developing, and canceling that many games would be ridiculous and a waste of money, and would only serve to show that Capcom hates their fans. Yeah, they're idiots with this franchise, but they won't throw millions away purely for the purpose of saying [tornado fang] YOU) they'll let the franchise sit as with Metroid.
There's a chance they weren't even gonna notice it, hence why the logo was hidden in the "remake's" data instead of at the forefront.
-
You know they really could have used to logo to show how Mega Man has changed in the last 25 years instead of having the plain old sprite of classic Mega Man on there... oh wait, it hasn't. The latest classic Mega Man games were exactly the same [parasitic bomb] as 25 years ago. Right.
getting so visibly angry over that is just... immature. I'm sorry, but though this be a Mega Man forum, it's still just a video game
Funny, that's what I tell all the Legends fans.

I must apologize. Though I may justify my negativity with my pessimistic ideals, it does not justify my whining.
What I should be talking about is the issue that the logo is 8-bit. To the casual it may just be an homage to the original Megaman, but if many may recall: past logos represented the progression of MM. One in particular I recall had MMBN, representing the evolution of MM on the handheld, another had the controversial MMSF (Though I liked the series). What I fear is that Capcom may end up playing it safe again with releasing another Classic MM game.
-
Or maybe you're looking far too much into a simple logo that may turn out to not even be the final version.
Ya know, that's always a possibility.
-
Hmmmmm.....
How about a contest for RPMers to design a better one?
I can dig it.
Also, man things are really tense here lately...
-
lol at people complaining about the logo. It's fine, even if it is the worst one so far.
If anything, I just wish they would have chosen different colors.
-
I just don't get how people are jumping from the logo to OMG CAPCOM'S GONNA [parasitic bomb] ON MEGAMAN AND ALL ITS FANS THIS YEAR in the same breath.
Yeah, the colors could be better, but the design itself is fine. And plus, 25 years is big; that's a quarter-century. Much bigger than the 15th and 20th anniversaries, imo.
-

Also, man things are really tense here lately...
I approve the idea of a contest to make a better logo for the 25th anniversary of Mega Man.
-

The same reason they jumped down Capcom's throat for X being anything less than a full playable character in UMvC3, Mirby. Because they WERE shat on by Capcom with Universe and Legends 3, they're more than a little sick of it, and it's left them on edge.
This logo could very easily mean absolutely nothing. It's unused, probably for a reason. But I must admit, if I were to assume it had any significance, I would get only bad news from there. All the people saying that Mega Man needs to be more than his NES back catalog at this point, I can't really say that they're wrong. That particular nostalgic boom was over in 2010 and we were left at the end of 2011 yearning for a proper modern adaptation of the franchise, be it Classic with a freakishly alienating art style (...), a PC game of a basically dead genre with an awesomely wide crossover cast and multiplayer just because Hell froze over, or the decade-old wet dream that we probably would have given up on had Capcom not brought it up.
In light of all of that shattering, Capcom going back to "Hey, remember the NES?" is probably the worst possible form of consolation that they can offer. It flies in the complete opposite direction of anything the fans were looking for.
But, again, it's an unreleased logo. It may mean absolutely nothing.
-
I too think that the logo looks pretty good. However, I don't have my hopes up for anything significant happening in the 25th anniversary after everything that occurred last year.
-
Someone on TMMN brought up the 25th anniversary logo for Street Fighter. (http://shoryuken.com/2012/01/11/capcom-announces-street-fighter-25th-anniversary-celebration/)
...
Now I REALLY hope that MM logo isn't the final one.
-
Know what would be funny? If Universe and Legends 3 weren't actually canceled and they were working on them in secret this whole time to release this year.
That would be cool, but it'll never happen
*points to my avatar*
-
Everyone knows that they were secretly working on MegaMan generations...or X9
-
Now that you mention that, MegaMan Generations would be pretty awesome.
-
Now that you mention that, MegaMan Generations would be pretty awesome.
As long as it had more content than Generations did.
*Still pissed off about no Sonic 3 level, and so many damn city levels.* XD
-
Uhh..Sky sanctuary?
-
Uhh..Sky sanctuary?
They treated all of Sonic 3 & Knuckles as one game the one time they really should have pulled a level from each "part" of the game. Seriously, why we didn't get like Hydrocity & Lava Reef (with a smaller Sky Sanctuary segment/cameo) is beyond me.
-
Hydrocity would have been nice.
-
Guys, I'm sorry to bump this thread, but apparently that was indeed the final logo. (http://www.rockmancorner.com/2012/06/capcom-reveals-25th-anniversary-music.html)
The first thing they stamp it on is a soundtrack compilation of the ten main games (no MMnB, World, Soccer, or arcade music) that costs roughly $185. Wonderful.
-
Mega Ran is also using it on his 5th Anniversary album.
I wasn't sure if it was official, but since he samples the actual audio with permission from Capcom, there's further evidence for ya.
(http://f0.bcbits.com/z/29/15/291545129-1.jpg)
to be fair, technically THIS was the first thing it was stamped on seeing as that soundtrack compilation was announced after this album
-
Ah.
(Who's the artist for that image, by the way?)
-
I have no clue. His site says nothing, but I tweeted him to find out.
But it should be more palatable that the first thing it was used for was an album by a guy who loves the series and is a tribute to the music of it rather than an ridiculously expensive collection of music that brings nothing new. :<

Yes. But, speaking of ridiculously expensive: The Street Fighter 25th Anniversary set (http://www.gamespot.com/news/street-fighter-25th-anniversary-set-drops-in-september-6378262)--
On top of the games included in the bundle, the Street Fighter 25th Anniversary Collector's Set packs in video content like a Blu-ray Street Fighter documentary, Street Fighter IV and Super SFIV anime movies, all episodes of the Street Fighter anime series, and Street Fighter: II The Animated Movie.
--is roughly $150.
The E-Can, which is far less substantial, is $200.
Bastards.
-
Well Street Fighter doesn't have a fanbase that they've royally [tornado fang]'d over, so I guess they'll be a bit more accommodating in that aspect. :<
-
so the whole purpose of this post was to [sonic slicer] about the artwork?

But the artwork DOES suck balls.
Seriously.
[spoiler]Just like MegaRan's "music" actually [/spoiler]
-
so the whole purpose of this post was to [sonic slicer] about the artwork?
seems rather inane to me
Would it be one of my posts if it was any other way?
$200 for only one series of music is kinda crap though. They should put X and Legends (The entire soundtrack as opposed to the thing they did with the OST's) for that price.
-
i had forgotten that around here opinion is treated as absolute infallible fact by quite a few members...
*sighs*
anyways, just pointing out that the logo was used elsewhere already, no need to shoot the messenger >_>

What? Are you talking about me, by any chance?
In fact, what are you even babbling about now? Not trying to be rude, just simply curious what the heck does that have to do with anything I said (assuming this is aimed at me... and it probably was)?
Sure, maybe I did say that both the cover art and "music" suck... but I never said it was an absolute fact. If you like his horrible (to me) rapping, that's fine by me. Like it. But if I disagree, don't [tornado fang]ing say that I'm of such a retarded mindset like "MY OPINION IS FACT!"
/rant_ends
-
I just dont get the black mega man thing. is it supposed to be some kind of self insert or something..?
-
It is supposed to be him.
-
My favorite songs on that album were Grow Up, Shadowman, Aqua Love, Interlude, and Ringman Pt1&2 in fact it's hard for me not to sing Grow Up whenever I hear Woodman's stage.

I never said my opinion was fact. I just hate real shitty self-inserts, I used to make them, nobody likes them.
And his music is rap? God that makes it even worse.
And I never shoot messengers.

The E-Can, which is far less substantial, is $200.
Bastards.
In all fairness, the E-Can hasn't announced a U.S. price tag yet. Contrary to popular belief a direct yen-to-dollar conversion often does not apply in marketing.
-
No, but its often pretty close, from what ive seen
-
So, wait, they want to charge roughly 200 bucks for a disc set that, among other things, excludes the X and Legends series? Are they [tornado fang]ing daft? I can understand the Legends series if it's soundtrack wasn't strong enough to match up with the rest, but considering this is a 25th anniversary celebration of the entire damn franchise, shouldn't that be included AS WELL AS the obviously kickass X series music? Are they still being throttled back by nebulous copyright matzah balls having to do with Legends localization?
That combined with the lack of Gameboy Mega Man music makes this a far-gone no-buy for me.
This December better blow my tits off, Capcom. Whatever you're planning.

Dear [tornado fang]ing god, we have to buy this stuff. Lest we fall into Capcom's trap.
-
You support it and they'll keep dragging around Megaman's rotting corpse through the cash in trenches.
You don't and Megaman disappears FOREVER.
Make your choice, sir.
(There is no [tornado fang]ing way I would buy two arrange disks for 40$ a pop. Especially after the whole Legends thing.)
-
I hate remix-arrangements. I already wasn't going to buy it, just making up bullshit conspiracy.

http://www.rockmancorner.com/2012/06/more-soundtracks-for-25th-anniversary.html
....I want to head desk now....so hard that it breaks the desk....and I mean a teacher's or office desk.
Would it be too much to say that Capcom is too dumb to live? I mean I can understand not getting a game, but getting a 10 disk set for almost $200 and 2 more for $80 more, what the sense make? Truthfully I wasn't expecting much, though I kinda wanted another art book or something, but this is just a horrible thing to do for a 25th anniversary. While the music is probably cool, it just costs too much for anyone to buy it unless they're rich and the fact that it's only the classic series does not help. Plus honestly the fact that so far it's the classic series really makes me sad, I want my X, ZX, and Battle Network, heck throw in Starforce 3 and some of the Zero series there too not just the Classic series. But I'll hold my head til December, because this can't be it unless they really were that stupid.
If that arrange CD was cheaper I would get it but $40 bucks is just too much.
-

But if people buy it (and they will) then they clearly aren't.
That's true and it makes me sigh.

It's like they forgot other series exit.
How about some X remixes, hmm? or Battle network or.. *gasp* LEGENDS remixes?
-
I somehow thought that those CDs would be sold together. Great, there goes my enthusiasm. (Still better than the E-Can, at least--right?)
And of course, there are assholes who think we should be happy with whatever Capcom puts out, no matter how overpriced and/or half-assed--one person went so far as to tell everyone that we're not getting any more games and that we need to "get over [ourselves]" and quit "whining"--and that we somehow don't want any more MM games because we won't blindly buy this stuff.
I don't know if they or Capcom are more infuriating.
-
ill just paste what i posted over at the corner.
"OH HURR DURR SHTOP WHINING YOU GUIZ GET OVER YOURSELVES GEEZ THIS IS COOL STOP COMPLAINING"
yknow what the problem with that is?
this ISNT cool. The E can soundtrack tin is interesting, but ridiculously overpriced for what the content amounts to: something EASILY AVAILABLE FOR FREE.
Remixes? interesting I suppose... When they are something OTHER than Classic series remixes, which we have gotten for previous anniversaries.
Im not expecting much, but at least something of actual effort, and not something Capcom can easily just halfass and call it a day. It's INCREDIBLye asy for them to chuck some OST's on a few discs, and then make a novelty package for it to make it seem cool. Just as easy to get their music workers to remix some tracks from Megaman 2.
and IN CASE YOU GUYS FORGOT, THIS IS A 25TH ANNIVERSARY HERE. 25 IS A MILESTONE IN GAMING ANNIVERSARIES, AND DESERVE THE BEST.
Im not saying I want a game, but... I want a game.
or something at least WORTH my money.
you guys who just kiss up to Capcom's ass and eat up whatever they crap out regardless of quality, YOU are the problem here, and YOU need to get over yourselves. because you know what? as the fanbase that GOT the franchise where it is today, the loyal customers who bought their products and demanded more, who made demand for it and gave Capcom our money for 25 years, we Do deserve better. ESPECIALLY after the Personal Relations APOCALYPSE that was the Legends 3 fiasco and it's aftermath.
And I stand by that argument.
-
OCRemix's Maverick Uprising (http://maverick.ocremix.org/) is probably a much better 25th anniversary gift. And it doesn't have all my favorite X tunes and too much Skiver in it.
-
ill just paste what i posted over at the corner.
And I stand by that argument.
Absolutely correct, I'd say.
Unfortunately, catering to Classic-series fans (if you can even use those words to describe such highway robbery) is the path of least resistance to Capcom. Classic is their fall-back position, being the "original" series it carries the closest thing to universal appeal that they've not yet utterly destroyed (see MM9). Doesn't matter how popular the other individual characters are (Zero, Tron), doesn't matter how high a regard most of the western world holds the X series. And of course there is the little pandora's box they're still trying to nail shut with Legends; multi-series efforts mean they have to either man up and face it, or conspicuously dodge it.
I knew right from the get-go that merchandise would never satisfy the fanbase: the likes of Kotobukiya, Bandai, Udon, and even Archie, they've set the bar too high. No tin can is going to approach that level of value. We expect better for a good reason: We've seen it. From everyone BUT Capcom, we've seen the care and quality we expect. We're looking to Capcom to deliver what they cannot: A game. You know how during the whole SOPA thing Sven was bitching about how they are game makers and not legislators? Well, we're asking the game makers to make a [tornado fang]ing game (or better yet, just release the one you already made last year). It doesn't get any plainer or simpler than that.
-
I kinda wonder if "still no plans, wait until December" is Capcom's failed way of saying "after what happened recently we're afraid to talk about anything MM-related in case things cock up again". But that'd be giving them too much credit.
And I'm sorry to drag more drama into this thread, but remember those assholes I mentioned a few posts ago? I think this exchange is related to that "just get over it" crap:
[spoiler]Other guy:
Haha. I'm laughing at how stupid and barbaric the MegaMan fanbase has become.
You guys just [sonic slicer], [sonic slicer], [sonic slicer] and more [sonic slicer] and saying crap like MegaMan is dying and stuff.
Seriously, MegaMan has become like a cult and the fanbase are the franchise's followers and they're mad at Capcom for killing off their beloved god.
Just saying, but there are other games to enjoy other than MegaMan like Mario, Sonic, Pokemon, Final Fantasy, Tales series, and more.
JUST GET OVER LEGENDS 3'S CANCELLATION FOR CHRIST SAKE!!!!
Again, just my opinion.
Me:
Oh, so we're "barbaric" for not blindly accepting everything Capcom puts out?
Yes, we know there's other series. Just because we're worried about Megaman's fate doesn't mean that everything else stopped existing.
MML3's cancellation was a PR disaster and a horrible betrayal of trust for many fans. There's more to it than just "we didn't get the game", and you must be actively trying to avoid understanding that if you haven't gotten it by now.
Other guy:
I understand how all of you feel, except for [EXPUNGED] cause I really, really hate him.
I'm trying like some others help calm the fanbase down. But did everyone listen to us? Nooooo...
I have gotten over MegaMan's future and played other franchises that haven't been reduced to crap. I know Capcom canning Legends 3 was a big downer, but like everyone else, I was mad at the company who did this, but over time, I got over it and said to myself "I'm done with MegaMan. At least until they make a new game or Crapcom cleans up its act. Right now, I'm gonna play popular franchises that are not treated like dirt like Mario, Pokemon and my favorite RPG series of all time, Final Fantasy. And the Tales series and Zelda."
*Sigh* Thing is, like everyone who tried to reason with the angry MegaMan fanbase, I'm probably gonna get ignored. [bit directed at someone else]
Me:
Don't try to "calm down" the fanbase by insulting them.
You know how people in call centers have to deal with irate customers shrieking into their phones right off the bat? It's kinda like that, AND you're telling people to stop caring about something very close to them (even temporarily)--what worked for you won't work for everyone.
Plus, you seem to be implying that by moving on, you're better than everyone else. That's never a good idea.
Other guy:
See? That kind of attitude is making the MM fanbase look bad. Have you seen some of the comments in here? Some saying the MegaMan fanbase is compared to the Sonic fandom who i deeply respected, the Sonic fandom which I am a huge fan of Sonic. I'm not trying to insult the fanbase, I'm giving some words of encouragement to help calm this rage driven fanbase down. But I got ignored like some people who are trying to move on without MegaMan while the rest of the angry MegaMan fanbase continue to destroy themselves with their rage. If you don't like what Crapcom is doing, why don't some of you go over to their Japan HQ and kidnap the Board of Directors who are calling the shots in making your precious MegaMan games and keep them until you forced them to make more MegaMan games to keep the fricking fanbase happy?
Me (comment not approved at time of writing):
Bullshit. Your first comment opened with you calling the MM fanbase "stupid and barbaric".
That is not encouragement.
If you really wanted to calm everyone down, you'd try to point out some positive things about these 25th anniversary soundtracks, like "They're expensive, but still not as overpriced as the E-Can".
What I'm trying to say is, your actions and intentions aren't matching up in the slightest. Hell, your first comment was easily far more belligerent than most of the ones before it by the people you were screaming at.
You're being "ignored" not because everyone else is blinded by rage, but because you're being incredibly dickish about "calming them down".
[/spoiler]
...does anyone else think that he only said he was trying to "calm down the fanbase" because he got called out?
-
just ignore him.
-
That guy is just being an A-class dickwad.
Ignore him.
-
I get what the guy is saying and that is kinda what I have been doing but he really shouldn't try to fix the fan base by insulting them. Also that sounds like a meaner version of what I said last week, I know that yes the mood of the fan base is getting me down and I wish we can move on but I can understand why we can't just yet.
-
That guy is just being an A-class dickwad.
Ignore him.
Should've done that ages ago, but alright.
Getting back on topic...Been thinking about why we got these soundtracks when we did if Capcom said they didn't have any anniversary plans yet. It's been demonstrated that there's been something of a communications breakdown between Capcom and its customers, and yet this seems like an attempt to make up for the lack of plans (however half-assed).
I'm sorry if the answer's really obvious or if this shouldn't even be a question; I just don't have anything else to talk about at the moment besides agitating holier-than-thou fans.

The Megas' History Repeating: Blue (http://themegas.bandcamp.com/album/history-repeating-blue) is also good.
