We haven't heard anything about the ZX series in years. Is it dead yet?

Albert sure is.

BUM BUM BUUUUUUMM!!!

At Capcom, series never die.

Flame · **Reply #4 on:** June 22, 2009, 11:31:05 PM

Haha... New title.

Nah, it's not dead, They will just tease us for years to come with spinoffs, fighting games including Zx characters just to, a dozens of years later, release an official sequel...or not.

Personally, I think X deserves the fighting game appearance for a bit. Megaman had his in MVC 1 and 2, EXE and Z series Zero had it in Onimusha, and Trigger and Classic Roll in Tatsunoko Vs Capcom. I think X deserves a shot.

Stol'd from Wiki:

Megaman Legends - August 31, 1998
The Misadventures of Tron Bonne - May 5, 2000
Megaman Legends 2 - October 24, 2000

Time since last game: ~9 years.

Megaman ZX - September 12, 2006
Megaman ZX Advent - July 12, 2007

Time since last game: ~2 years.

Also, to cover my ass, all listed dates are for the games' release dates in the NTSC regions.

If anyone else wants to add something funny to this, they can name how many times the ZX series characters got a cameo vs the Legends series characters. Either way, it looks like we'll be seeing more ZX sooner than Legends. Just be patient.

You know, I just noticed that. All of the Zero sequels had one year between them, right?

Uh oh...

Inti-Creates did produce 3 games after ZX.

- Doraemon Nobita to Midori no Kyojinden (2008)
- Crayon ShinChan Arashi o Yobu Cinema-Land Kachinkogachinko Daikatsugeki! (2008)
- Mega Man 9 (2008)

They seemingly only had their hands full. If we don't in 2 more years, and instead get something else, we will then know it is dead.

I remember people saying that they didn't like how fast the ZX games were coming. I'll be willing to accept that a new ZX is being slow simmered to be a big bang finish for the series.

Well the chance is bigger for me to play ZX3 then X9 or Legends (if they plan to bring them on a console)

So they didn't like how fast the uh... one ZX sequel came.

Gaia · **Reply #22 on:** June 23, 2009, 09:30:50 PM

People STILL itch for a sequel? way to go for leaving that cliffhanger Capcom. if you excuse me, I'll replay ZX2's minigames.

Having the big finish for a series does take awhile to make, I'll give you that. somehow, Inti needs thier own origional series if they were wrap up ZX. Ironic that Doreamon still airs at a certain time of the day in ecuador, and inti has a game for him. $:\$

after the Zero games, I guess. Though I think those were made just as fast.

VixyNyan · **Reply #24 on:** June 23, 2009, 09:59:03 PM

If you look at the time between each game's release, it's obvious they had both series' planned earlier than expected. Right after X5 and/or X6. Zero's X6 ending (that you all know takes place very, very late in the X series), had to be shown earlier than expected, so the Zero and ZX series' could be made. And stuff. >v< </wii>

News

So, is this series becoming another legends?
