Unfortunately, I think Capcom's trying to put MMX:CM far behind them.
Don't know why, other than sales numbers. It was and still is a great RPG.

Ah. I've got all semester to do more, and it's only 15% of the grade, anyway.

I can't see Dr. Wily programming that kind of voice into one of his bots, but darned if ol' Lucas doesn't have Zero spot on; that voice even matches Zero's personality. Zero may be a "soldier", but he's not really rank-and-file. He's in a league of his own.

We saw a mother for the little boy back then. It could have been her. Some also suggest it's Clarabelle Cow.

Rockman Series / Re: Ancient Theories/Fanon
« on: October 11, 2009, 04:42:18 AM »There's fairly little to counter the Wily/Sagesse/Isoc theory. Inafune himself said Wily was brought back by the Virus. Between what Inafune said and what Sagesse and Isoc actually did in the plot, you'd raise more plotholes saying they aren't Dr. Wily than saying that they are. For example, how can both Sagesse and Isoc do the impossible? Touch the untouchable, break the unbreakable, row row fight the power.
Like the reference.
Yes, Inafune did indeed say Wily was brought back by the virus; we saw that clearly in X5. But seriously, plotholes? What's impossible for one scientist may not be for another. Isoc and Serges, having gotten their hands on Zero's technology and Wily's brilliance, combined with how many ever decades of technological progress (another thing to keep in mind) would probably have found it only moderately difficult to manipulate the coding. Look at all that Ciel did. She really specialized in robotics and programming, but next thing you know, she's designing ultra-efficient power generators, resurrecting Reploids from previously incorrigible states in bite-size format, and even starting to form some kind of pathway to the human soul (which Serpent and Model W promptly exploit in ZX).
I just think Wily would take more credit for his work; there's more Wily in Zero's head than there is in the outer world.

« on: October 11, 2009, 03:50:55 AM »I guess this will be a full retail game on DVD and all, not a WiiWare release?
I don't know... it has that funky mini-game collection stench on it, though I imagine it probably will be a quirky title in similar vain to Hey You, Pikachu! on the N64 and Pokemon Channel on Gamecube.
- Full name is Pokemon Park Wii: Pikachu's Great Adventure
- action/adventure game
- clear park attractions while building bonds with Pokemon
- utilize the abilities of Pokemon you've become friends with at each attraction
- Sky Race has flying Pokemon, Marine Slider has water Pokemon
- distinct visuals when compared to the WiiWare Pokemon lineup
Source
It could be anything in 2 ways:
Pokemon used:
A) Could be your own, and you're increasing its EVs and/or Happiness stats
B) And/or a default set of Pokemon, it's just a SNOOPING around game
and
Distribution method:
A) Specifically mentions the WiiWare previous lineup, it might be WiiWare
B) If this is a deeper game than we're seeing (which I doubt), it'd be on disc

I don't know whether we should blame ourselves or Capcom for translation messing with our understanding of the canon.
Do we care too much, or do they care too little? There are plenty of other series of games out there, and they don't usually have this kind of problem. For as much as Metroid has skipped around, it has only taken very minimal changes to maintain a fairly solid base canon.
The closest thing to the Mega Mess is the Legend of Zelda series.
EDIT: I'm already refuting the follow-up post in my mind (i.e. it's that easy), but I'll let Zan have at it.

A revolution, eh? Less focus on popstars-of-the-minute and more on quality entertainment, and more films based on lores instead of sequels?

Yeah, and Gate and Alia's abilities came out of nowhere, too.
I guess that makes Alia somehow a part of Roll's lineage?
I cannot wait for that Wily/Serges/Isoc theory to be dispelled. We've seen Wily's presence at work since at least X5, if you don't count Zero and believe X's imperfect coding is what caused the virus. I don't doubt that some strains of the virus would lend its hosts to behave in the same mannerisms, in a Carl Jung sort of way, as Dr. Wily. But if Serges and Isoc were in any way inhabited by Dr. Wily directly, that egomaniac would have made it known.
On topic:
Iris = Mother Elf. I still think it's possible, but it probably won't turn out to be true. Zero will just remember Mother Elf from way back when, and that's that.
