My thoughts exactly. If only the idiots at Facebook were this way, though...

Facebook is also the same place that had people FURIOUS at a rainbow colored Oreo for Pride. So yeah

Also yeah, I'm excited, though I'll have to hold off on getting one because all excess funds right now go straight to MAGFEST!

imma paintin' mine green and callin' it the WiiG

Oh, and I'm going to the Wii U Experience here in San Francisco at the end of the month, so I'll let y'all know how it plays and how the tablet feels and stuff too. ;D

True, true.

There's nerds everywhere though; you just have to look for them!

which is hard, since we can be quite reclusive.

Well considering that Risky's Revenge was already ported to iOS and therefore made a single screen experience, I'm guessing it'll be like that.

MM4's soundtrack, as a whole, is very underrated I think. I hope the Megas continue on with their work and do MM4.

Definitely agreed on that one. It'll have to come after a secret project they were working on and then History Repeating: Red though.

How did they come up with Steve, I hope that's a coincidence.

I think it was just a joke made up here. But it works, dammit!

Only 130 likes?? Hahaha! That's way worse than I would have ever imagined! That is just down right pitiful. Now that's what I expect out of something like Xover.

Xover's cancellation would bring a group that would peak at 12 likes or so.

Though I'm not furious about BBAMM (in fact, I don't really care), it's basically like this.

Imagine a tripod, with the humorous intentions BBAMM in SFxT on top of it. The three legs are the fanbase, L3, and Universe. In order for BBAMM to succeed, he needs all those supports. Then two of those legs are taken away, being the games. The "joke" that is the character no longer has the supports for it to go off aside from the fanbase, which is effectively removed from the equation by the other two supports' removal. And, naturally, what happens is the humor quite literally falls flat. Nothing substantial is left to keep the intentions afloat, and it fails.

The intentions were good from the start, but it broke down completely along the way from initial planning to release. That's it. Whether or not it's an considered unrelated game is irrelevant. As has been said before, Mega Man has cameo'd in many other game that would qualify as irrelevant in the same way; there was a time when ol' Mega was basically Capcom's mascot, so it was natural for him to randomly pop up in Capcom games. That in itself makes them relevant for the Blue Bomber; history has proven that much, at the very least.

Correct me if I'm misstating this.

I must admit, I enjoyed Fi's character, and the ending made me cry. But she was even more annoying than Navi. Which is saying a lot.
