oh competetive battle networks has been a thing for forever im surprised it showed up at evo tho.

[@animecaveman7769]

It was such an honor playing Bn6 at EVO this year. I still remember the preperation of gathering the battle chips, trading with friends, preping with them, bug frag grinding, and the event itself. All these moments leading up to the tournament and the tournament itself will stick with me for the rest of my life. Thank you LA GEMA and also a large thank you to Ricky Sparks and the rest of the staff for organizing such an amazing event.

[@tking2199]

We fought so hard to get a Battle Network legacy collection. Thank you all who made this possible. This is surreal to see my favorite series be at EVO.

[@ezmoneyy149]

Seeing one of the BEST potential Esports now played at EVO is amazing. Hope they make it annual this game could bring is such an amazing scene

[@ShoryuCon]

WHAT!!!? I had no IDEA this was at EVO!! This is so badass... :')

[@okubukai]

This should be an eye opener for capcom and updated game would be amazing. I swore if they pushed it could have rivaled pokemon.

[@ManuelMartinez-wv7dm]

THIS 1000%

[@Angelo_X_2045]

I wish they would've added NG+ to ALL the games BN4 Style (Harder difficulty as you NG+).

[@NetBattler]

It could but I don't think BN will beat Pokemon

[@Pioxys]

Beat pokemon? Doubt it, but it had potential to stand next to it, along side Yu-Gi-Oh. It was so fun having a PET, with my friends in school. If you lost, you had to take a walk to revive them. Encouraging exercise. I felt like it was ahead of it’s time. Just the marketing push for them didn’t last as long.

[@bdb7185]

​@@NetBattlerI could have if it kept improving they can do so much with MegaMan

[@VeeGeeA]

I feel like there is so much more that can be done with this. A mobile stream setup. A trigger where sensor bars block the cust screen and turn off when the round starts so commentators can commentate effectively. Cameras for the players. I see big potential in the BN community to make more accessible experience if we can have these three implemented.

[@LAGEMA]

Sick ideas bro! Feel free to hit me up on Twitter or Discord if you want to follow up on it and interested in implementing them for next year

[@nothingelsetodoZ]

This is too precious: These games being at evo, the excitement of the community, the fact that the commenters are fumbling about a little bit because this is just a new paradigm of commenting the matches, which used to be recorded. Pure, unadultered joy I say.

People doing real life N1 Grand Prix, that's great, especially today in 2024

[@ZZtheDark]

This is on EVO? What a time to be alive.

[@kevtlee08]

I love that Megaman is at evo. Played this back in the days and glad to see it coming back again.

We are living real battle network tournament!!!

[@gundambassexe31]

Thank you Capcom! Year of the netbattlers continues

[@maxspecs]

This is using the physical collection on Switch, yeah? It’s not just using a save file with everything unlocked, these folders are manually grinded out in-game.

[@OccuredJakub12]

Yeah you can see it by the menus

[@ihategoogle905]

doesnt mean the save files arent edited

​@@IkariXIVI'm curious is that actually a thing?

[@IkariXIV]

@@Stoic_Y very much. I saw some comments on other videos about this event that lead me to believe it still is since someone needed bugstop to finish their navicust and were able to get it via a hotspot someone set up.

[@cruzzosanchezzo9632]

This just came up on my recommended and the first thing I thought was “ain’t no way this game done made it to EVO!” And now I’m just smiling ugly happy it made it

Grew up on the Battle Network games but never dabbled in multiplayer as I never had friends who also played. Had no idea this could be so hype. Hope it comes back next Evo.

Thanks for coming bro hope to see you next year!

[@feriscan]

236 / 5.000 It's funny and somewhat ironic since my dream was to be able to play MBN online and on Steam there are 100% no games, however from what I understand on Switch it was more alive and here I wonder why Capcom didn't do cross-platform play with the other platforms?

[@LAGEMA]

If you are on PC try Tango instead there's a couple of Discord servers where you can find games

[@vibin3070]

YEAAAA so cool it got to be there

[@thesilentsociety3252]

MMBN at EVO 😮 major respect to the community for making this happen

@Thehero0ftime it is a type of bug lol not mmbn3 bug style. I don't know the specifics but that was crazy.

is it coincidence that this is getting shown to me because ive followed evo for years or due to me playing and loving MMBN 1-6 in my childhood?? fucking hate how "algorithim" taps into your life without any prior search to certains topics. its as if "computers" can hear our thoughts....GOOD SHIT THO KEEP MMBN ALIVE NIKKKAAA

I had no idea Battle Network had a competitive scene. This is dope

[@AoBomberman]

It's PvP gameplay is surprisingly deep, not surprised it has one.

[@faceurhell]

Sick to see Mega Man Battle Network at EVO. I hope we get more tech to make it easier to stream and get some LAN connection (no pun intended!) since it sounds like the rest of the setup is good.

[@Bolt38877]

No way this was at evo didn’t even know about this I need more of this haven’t played on switch in a bit and I assume the switch version is being played cause of the local play added in compared to ps5 and pc ports

[@Jesus-hu4lq]

They want to do tango in the next year for evo and we just had an online tournament for vortex gallery

[@megamikex8163]

Cool! EXE-sports is here!

[@nomealow]

2:52 wow didn't know collision bug was a thing

[@Alckemy]

I can’t believe this made it to Evo!

[@ManuelMartinez-wv7dm]

This is sick. Making me want to play some BN6

[@UltimaKeyMaster]

Ooh cool, EVO footage of- The first battle was won because of a...collision bug? How on Earth is that legal?

[@Jerusawoo]

MMBN6 itself has a system called "bugging". (I know it sounds bad but bare with me) the mechanic comes from the customization menu, where you are allowed to place certain blocks for passive buffs like more hp or damage etc.. however, there are rules for the system Certain colors of blocks cannot be next to each other, blocks cannot overlap, and certain blocks HAVE to cross the middle line while others aren't allowed to touch it. That being said, you're allowed to break all the rules except the overlap one, so long as you're willing to deal with the consequences, those being the aforementioned bugs. The collision bug is one of them, meaning that enemies deal contact damage to you (they wouldn't be able to otherwise), so while it's not technically a game bug, it is called a "bug" by the game terms. If there's an ACTUAL bug (as in, glitch in the game unintended by the devs) we call them glitches instead to differentiate.

[@LAGEMA]

No other matches in the video have that happen. What you saw is a rare occurrence that is not common to see in competitive matches, it's so rare that for people in the community it's kinda hype and fun when it happens. In this instance if any of the players in the match called for an organizer it would've been looked into, since they continued playing the set it's assumed they both agreed with the outcome. Some people have mentioned it too so I might make a video on it, let me know if you have any other questions! Thanks

[@EmeraldBlade98]

I'm so glad they added a 30 second timer in the menu

[@viewtfulzexal5026]

I didn't know this existed, but I'm not complaining

[@screemingnott]

Im so happy Battlenetwork fans finally got their PC release, I enjoyed the games as a kid but I didn't know there was a competitive PvP scene for it, and from what I've heard it was struggling because of its limited accessibility. Now to see it on EVO? its crazy!

[@Javikazi]

I’ve played the heck out of this series of games back in the day and let me tell you it’s refreshing to see this being a thing. I’m also annoyed seeing people using damage plus chips AFTER a damaging chip or attempting to add damage to a chip with no attack value like dbl beast. 😂😅

[@jeronderrick]

Finally this is on EVO bro so hyped 🔥🔥🔥

[@trigs7127]

Whoever messed with the timeline to make this happen, keep doing it!

[@rokazeravas4904]

What’s the benefit of bugging your Navi cust? Does it give different things based on how you bug it?

[@LAGEMA]

Yes some bugs have effects you can leverage like humor or color bug

[@AlexisGallardo-n3z]

Dude! They actually have a tournament of battle network?? Wtf! I love this

Si todo sale bien, el proximo año hay chance de ir a EVO y te podria ayudar con el torneo!
