The different Mega Man series aren't reboots at all. There's two continuities: the main timeline and the RPG timeline. The main timeline has the Classic, X, Zero, ZX and Legends series, though Legends was put in after the fact and isn't really connected to the others. The RPG timeline has the Battle Network and Star Force series.

[@jeremyabbott4537]

Legends was always meant to be a part of the timeline. It was originally supposed to take place after X4, as it was the original ending of the X series, but Capcom kept pushing it back and they had to keep setting up the fact that their is a satellite system that can destroy the world and a few other details. Then Zero and ZX series happened which takes place between X and Legends.

[@Nintendrone42]

The X series was actually going to end at X5, not X4. Pushing back the end of the X series only affected the Zero series, not Legends. Elysium is only mentioned in the bad ending of X5, and the city that X actually ended up building was Neo Arcadia, not Elysium. Legends is so loosely connected to the rest of the series that it's clear that placing it in the main timeline was an afterthought.

[@CalebCraft10]

Riley Long Actually, any X game after X5 is part of a timeline outside of the one with the Zero games.

[@hellsinker]

Violet Rose actually X6, X7 and X8 are all canon with the Zero series and onward, the ending of X6 where Zero is put into hibernation is the ending for the entire X series, it takes place an unprecedented amount of time after X8

Violet Rose Legends is also canon with Classic Megaman and onward, Command Mission is not canon, even the devs said it

[@harkinianhyrule7825]

I'd love to see an episode on Shulk, partially because it means that Alax would have to play Xenoblade, but also because I think he has an interesting design. He's much more complex than just "Air Slash is his Up B and is an art in the game," and similar statements. I mean, a lot of Mega Man is straightforward, but Alax made a great episode about him because its more than Know Your Moves; it's Know Your Character Design. And I think Shulk's design, like Captain Falcon's, is trying to evoke the feel of his game. For instance, not all of Shulk's moves come straight from Xenoblade, but even some that do are completely different. The Monado Arts aren't even close to acting as they do in the actual game, as they give Shulk buffs and debuffs rather than simply being attacks. This seems to be an effort to relate to how Xenoblade, as Nintendo's resident game with MMO-inspired gameplay, is all about using having the teammates support each other with buffs and Auras to create a cohesive, stronger unit. The Monado Arts in Smash have cooldowns because Arts in Xenoblade have cooldowns. Activating the Monado is the only way Shulk can have an Aura, and in Smash all of his Monados give him the appearance of an Aura. He isn't using Monado Arts; he's getting Aura buffs. Shulk in Xenoblade might do nothing like this, but that's because Shulk isn't Shulk: he's all of Xenoblade. This can better be seen in his characterization. In the actual game, Shulk is a serious, anti-social nerd, but in Smash, he's chipper and says silly lines. Xenoblade is somewhat (in)famous for all of the ridiculous lines characters say in battles. "Shulk time" isn't even a thing, as it's actually "Reyn time." But since the absurdity of "Now it's Reyn time" is so beloved by Xenoblade fans it must be manifested in Smash. The chipper humor of the entire cast is manifested through Shulk himself in Smash bros, amalgamating the mood of the game to result in a not-entirely-honest portrayal of the character. Shulk also has such a powerful counter because the game emphasizes knowing what the enemy is going to do and preventing that from happening. Visions are an in-game counter that can be extremely powerful, especially once Shulk gets all of his skills, and can completely shut down an enemy's effectiveness. Thus, in Smash, if you read what your opponent is doing, you get one of the most powerful counters in the game. Of course, in Smash, it doesn't always work, being one of the most whiffable ones. Appropriately countering a vision is Xenoblade can be hard to pull off. These are only a few things, and I'm busy, but I'm sure Alax could find even more. In many ways, Shulk feels nothing like he does in Xenoblade as he does in Smash, but I think the way he was ported into the game was very interesting and worth further analysis. It certainly isn't a simple "Back Slash is an art in the game, Visions are things in the game, hur dur."

[@lunaurum3515]

X happens a century after the originals, after doctor light created X, a robot who could think and act for himself. After his discovery 100 years later, reploids, robots based off of X began to exist. Later, a large group of reploids becomes the maverick hunters, dedicated to hunting down renegade reploids. After they find Zero, the last of Dr. Wily's creations, Sigma, head of the maverick hunters smashes Zero's head crystal, releasing a computer virus that infected sigma, and other maverick hunters, making them go maverick, at the same time as completely erasing zero's memory. As X, you're trying to stop sigma, and the eight other infected hunters. After X1, ... you know what, this is gonna take way too long.

[@bobbillans6715]

I was a little worried about this one, because I am a hardcore MegaMan fan. So... Here's a list of things you missed: Mega Man's Dash attack is not based on how Mega Man uses the weapons, but how Top Man uses it in battle. The way hyper bomb is used in smash is more reminiscent to how Bomb Man uses it in Powered Up when played as. Mega Man's jump sound was lifted from MM7 Mega Man's slide actually doing damage may be a reference to MM5's Charge kick or MM7's hidden battle mode The charge blast seems to be based on the incarnation in MM5 in size and power Mega Man's Up and Down Smash cause him to vent energy after used, as two busters overheat him. This is a reference to the climax of Super Adventure Rockman

[@Funkermonsterco]

In regards to keeping him faithful to his games, I'd also love to throw in that Mega Man's poster art for the game was done by Capcom artist Ryuji Higurashi, who worked on Mega Man Battle Network, Star Force, The Complete Works ports of 1-6, and other games. Though the character himself is stylized in a new way (I feel MM is the probably the only char in Smash 4 deviate a little from his original look, whereas the Sm4sh's art style keeps everyone else to look closer to their home games), it stays true to the promotional art of the games' featuring him standing against the robot masters with the game's main antagonist looming over: vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/megaman/images/c/c5/Mega_Man_SSB4_%281%29.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20130629051815\ vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/megaman/images/9/91/RM5Promo.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20100826232845 Aside from doing his own thing, he's also really good at imitating Keji Inafune's original art style for the series (see below) and was always a fan of the series before even joining Capcom 16 years ago. They certainly made no mistake in choosing him to create Mega's new look for the world of Smash, and Sakurai too went all on out on keeping his flair! static.giantbomb.com/uploads/original/8/82063/2795903-816xvvyxwpl._sl1500_.jpg

[@MrAuthor3DS]

I can see a design genius with Marth, Roy, and Lucina. Mastering Fire Emblem means making the most out of every unit's strengths and covering their weaknesses. Likewise, to master Marth, you have to know how to utilize his Falchion's special sweet spot properly. Do that, and you'll get a great damage output with him. It's not exactly easy, but then again, a lot of Fire Emblem games aren't so easy. Risk/reward is a key factor with Marth, especially with the (at the time) newly-introduced Counter move. Timed right, it can save Marth from danger and turn it back. If it fails, though, Marth is wide open and vulnerable. Roy follows a similar principle with his Sword of Seals' inner sweet spot. Of course, the risk in fighting as Roy is different, but akin to what Marth has to be careful of. Marth can't get too close or he'll be at a power disadvantage, especially in a face-to-face fracas. Roy HAS to get close to deal big damage, but that still presents the risk of...getting close. If someone blocks Roy, he may find himself in big trouble - especially with his weaker jump ability. And then we have Lucina, whose sword DOESN'T have a universal sweet spot. What's the genius in that? Well, consider what Fire Emblem Awakening is. Many say that it's way easier than the Fire Emblems of old, especially with the introduction of Casual mode (where your units never get retired). However, this is what made Awakening a sort of gateway for new Fire Emblem players. This EASED them into the formula, much like how Lucina can serve as a would-be Marth main's first step. She doesn't have the stress of spacing for the sweet spot, so while she doesn't have Marth's output potential, she also lacks the risk that comes with it. Just like Awakening is Fire Emblem's modern gateway, Lucina is also a gateway to playing Marth.

[@UltimaKeyMaster]

Plus, Counter is actually kind of brilliant as a FE throwback in general, when baiting enemies has its uses. Like for example: >Enemies that only move when you get in range, so you put your tanks on that edge, or someone that'll mop the floor with them after taking a hit >Lowering the risk of THEIR counter-attacks during your turn if you can kill them quick enough (if they hit you first, then you hit back, you can kill them on your next attack when you would've taken an extra hit if you started it) >NOT killing a boss right away so your weaker units can hit/kill them to grind EXP when you've got them cornered I mean, it makes sense for Little Mac to have a Counter too, it's all but required in boxing. Lucario, it's already a Move, but Palutena...eh now they're stretching it. I'm pretty shocked they held off on giving it to Robin. ...And then turning right around and making Corrin have a Counter move second only to Shulk.

[@apatheosis8841]

P. Za, Smack Down is a physical move that brings all aerial pokémon the ground, similar to what Greninja does at the end of his final smash, and Greninja can learn the move in game by TM 23. But okay, I can see that it is a bit of a stretch.

[@Kain128]

Yes, he probably has so many moves from Pokèmon because he IS a Pokèmon. :/

[@henroriro]

You have the best intro in existence.

[@wutsmyname101]

Mega man is capcom, marvel vs capcom, Disney owns marvel, Mickey is Disney. King mickey is from square enix. Cloud is from square enix. Mickey confirmed for smash switch?

[@willlast2015]

you is wrong !! 😅

[@ShadamAran]

Wow you really nailed his design philosophy. I have been fascinated with Rock's kit ever since his sm4sh debut, but always found it awkward to use. It wasn't until years later (2021) that I started messing around with Megaman legacy collection I started to understand his playstyle in smash better. In the Megaman series megabuster (has more depth than some entire characters in smash) doesn't knock enemies back, it deals chip damage. When I stopped thinking in terms of smash, and thinking in terms of megaman, I was finally able to start using that move without getting punished every time (it's quite unsafe on hit, like in his games, you gotta take your shots then move/do something else). I am watching this video a couple years after ultimate has come out, and I recently finally started getting somewhere and understanding Megaman the way he was meant to be played in smash, and it really is remarkably like his own games. Sakurai truly is a genius when it comes to the way he is able to integrate some of the character designs in smash. This really is a character with a skill ceiling through the roof and if you watch some of the best Megaman players in the world, even their approach to the character is far from optimal...

[@barrybend7189]

Noob at smash Bros plays MegaMan and actually does good.

[@6IX-369]

Then he isn't a noob.....a noob is inherently bad.....until they git gud.....sooooo

[@BingBangPoe]

Mega Man is definitely the best representation of a character in Smash Bros. when you compare to the original source. It's nuts! I still get the chills whenever I watch his trailer.

[@youmeltube]

Not a single MM2Wood heard. I am disappointed.

[@PUTRiDLegacy]

3:19 "Is that a face a mother could love?" Lucas in the background: *heavy breathing*

[@ricegod7812]

Well their making an 11 game... Like if hyped

[@lazychief69]

That intro is soooo fire 🔥

[@BugBoss1205]

I wanna see Greninja sometime. All who agree say aye!

[@windindi2834]

Neo Toxin I wouldn't mind if they did Mewtwo.

[@daytonWs]

Ari Rozen Mewtwo.

[@BugBoss1205]

Hey dumbass, I did indeed say Greninja.

[@windindi2834]

No need to be salty, bro. I agree, but I'm also saying that Mewtwo would be great too.

[@SS2GohanisBomb1]

How about just every Pokemon he hasn't done yet in one vid.

[@heyguysitsky2997]

“Arin Hand-Stands Tonsillitis” This is my new favorite channel

[@tonyhakston536]

... uhm.... reboot? do... you even know what that means?

[@hiddenhalo1659]

Finally I've been wanting to see this for a while.

[@SirVapidsTheFourteenth]

I wouldn't call any of those reboots, considering every series takes place in the same timeline.... Except Battle Network and Starforce. But hey. Those were just as awesome. And Mighty No. 9 was a GREAT game.

[@UltimaKeyMaster]

Correct on the timeline thing, uh not so much on MN9...I mean I'd say that's just my opinion, but I've seen LIKING the game as a pretty small minority so far.

[@TheHenriGame]

Funny how Egoraptor tackled the megaman's design philosophy and everyone called him a genius for noticing that... but it's something so simple! Man, we sure were stupid way back when.

[@AMH9000]

"He summons a black hole. Which is from Mega Man 9..." *Few minutes later* "Man the creativity went down from there, no wonder they stopped on 8." How... How the hell do you do shit like this? I mean, I know that this is scripted (nix a blooper reel or two) but really? That's just a terrible oversight.

[@bartymatrix7]

AMH9000 If you listen, he says he didn't know this game existed.

[@JJJJ-ib9zg]

AMH9000 Impatience to criticise I see like just wait a few seconds man.

[@july7498]

Pay attention

[@aionicthunder]

Speaking of which, at the time of this video's release, there were 11 (because of Mega man & Bass)

[@Cy-Kill_01]

Awesomizer 2000 would you count the megaman X street fighter game and the megaman tournament fighter to that as well? Cause that would make 13

[@Pluveus]

The megaman uppercut also appeared as the secret move in megaman X-2

[@Semaze]

Mega Man 11

[@TD0150]

7:29 Let's get right... INTO THE MOOOOOOOVES

First comment!

[@masterfrillish6393]

Treacheroustoad Now that is just rude Someone just commenting first deserves at least a "No one cares" But telling them to Kill themselves? Is this what we amount to as a race?

[@Drew_64]

"Is that what we amount to as a race" lol wtf is that supposed to mean?

[@masterfrillish6393]

drew1212 It basically means "Is this what us humans have become?"

[@Kain128]

You are a very bad liar.

[@smashgaming8345]

@@masterfrillish6393 yeah, i was a kid when i made this comment. i don't think anyone would see this comment now and thankfully i didn't see this kys message then. you shouldn't tell people to kill themselves but to a comment like this i'd just say who gives a shit or whatever now lol

[@dillonflynn4554]

Alex: Is that a face a mother could love? Lucas, Next to Mega Man: Not mine

[@victikirby15]

I'm gonna start a petition for Egoraptor to remake Sequilitis to Arin Handstand's Tonsillitis

[@Duhrkinhagen101]

I'm liking some of these new thumbnails!
