You want it APC, 100%? It's a lot of work after all.If you're looking for new ownership, I'd definitely take it. I'm a huge Mega Man fan.
So, did anybody see his throws? Are they different weapons?
I'll definitely do it. I've got time now that it's summer.You want it APC, 100%? It's a lot of work after all.
You relize if megaman had any of those it would make him the third palutena and mii moveset choices.Hmm, I wonder what other robot master weapons will appear as custom special moves. Looking at the difference between Rush Coil and Beat as recovery weapons, there could be a small chance of weapons of different properties to the original special. Here's my ideas:
Neutral B:
Side B:
- Cut Man (Rolling Cutter): Thrown in a arc, similar to a boomerang, that stretches far before it returns to Mega Man.
- Magnet Man (Magnet Missile): Shoots straight, but will immediately dart upwards/downwards towards an opponent as it passes them, similar to MM3.
Up B:
- Hornet Man (Hornet Chaser): Shoots a robotic hornet, that moves slowly, moving towards a designated target that is closest to the hornet (excluding Mega Man, of course.)
- Pharaoh Man (Pharaoh Wave): A chargeable special. When fully charged, Mega Man will fire a widely vertical shot that pushes its opponents away when in contact. The shots will move more slowly if not fully charged.
Down B:
- Already confirmed Beat as one special.
- Tengu Man (Tornado Hold): Places a powerful jet instantly under Mega Man's feet to propel him upwards. Can be used in the air as the jet will float in place. or...
- Rush Jet: Mega Man can utilise an in-built jet pack based on Rush Jet in MM. Sacrifices less vertical recovery in favor of longer horizontal recovery, similar to DK's Up special.
It's pretty fun imagining possibilities like this.
- Flower shield already confirmed.
- Jewel Man (Jewel Satellite) / Skull Man (Skull Barrier): Acts similar to the leaf shield, except the jewel's/skull's properties help deflect any projectiles that make contact. or...
- Frost Man (Ice Wave): Sends out a small wave of permafrost, freezing over its path that causes icicles to rise from the ground. Only travels across ground, but can climb up walls as it continues to freeze, until it reaches the end of the platform or stage.

I'm aware, but you never know. Sakurai likes to surprise people. A character like Mega Man has a variety of choices.You relize if megaman had any of those it would make him the third palutena and mii moveset choices.
For down the third would either be star/jewel/skull mans move
For side it would have to be a alternate explosive attack
For up something that brings him up or attack during going up
And for normal....well actually those possibilities are fine, though i would add Ring man (ring boomerrang)
I agree. One of the most interesting things about the Megaman games are the sheer amount of weapons. I have a feeling that all of his Down-B moves will be Shield variants. Which doesn't bother me too much, as I like those weapons in the games.I don't remember Sakurai saying that Mii and Palutena would be the only characters with "unique options."
I also checked the part of the Smash site where they talk about Custom Movesets. He didn't say they'd be the only ones.
Honestly, Mega Man makes the most sense to be the third for this.
that'd be cool if he could do that.i wish it was possible.I wonder if Megaman's Slide Kick is able to go under Samus's Charge Beam. Or better yet, another Megaman's Charge Shot. I thought it would be a little to large for him to duck under.
Hope there's a lot of positive stuff that can be said. I'm hype!Hey all! Not sure how often you guys visit other character pages but I wrote an indepth Rosalina and Luma Breakdown seen here: http://smashboards.com/threads/extensive-rosalina-and-luma-breakdown.364387/
And this weekend I was at the Nintendo Play Event in Irvine and Labbed Mega Man extremely hard and am writing an in depth analysis for him. Stay tuned!!!
Metal Blades and the Leaf Shield need more love.I want to see people using the Leaf Shield. I'm really interested in how useful it can actually be. But in most gameplay videos, not many people take advantage of Megaman's specials, except maybe the Crash Bomb.
Quick preview from my breakdown, I actually found the Metal blade to be extremely useful, assuming you through it into the ground and pick it up for item use. Z dropping it is a great way to add some mind games and using it for edgeguard/stage control is helpful too.From what I've seen, Metal Blade is too sucky, because people rarely use it, and when they do, it's one of the slowest projectiles I've ever seen in the history of Smash Bros ever.
A projectile that slow and small can't possibly be too deadly. -_- Unless it's Snake's missile.
But I have seen a little Leaf Shield use act like a small combo racker, probably everyone already suspected that anyway. As long as it blocks projectiles and racks up a little damage, I'll have my use for it. :D
That's great! Well, not so much for Leaf Shield, but I'm glad Metal Blade is better than it looks!Quick preview from my breakdown, I actually found the Metal blade to be extremely useful, assuming you through it into the ground and pick it up for item use.

I actually found the leaf shield to be pretty average, barely blocking attacks and taking a good bit of time to start up. Of all his B moves Metal blade seemed to have the most utility.
It's not a knockback move, but does okay damage (not sure on exact percent) but its just a good thing to include in your spam.That's great! Well, not so much for Leaf Shield, but I'm glad Metal Blade is better than it looks!
Still, I've seen very few people connect with it, so... how much damage does it induce? How's the knockback?
Not bad, not bad... Crash Bomber is the special move I'm most interested in, honestly.It's not a knockback move, but does okay damage (not sure on exact percent) but its just a good thing to include in your spam.
Going by MMX logic, Hadoken would be Mega Man's own lil' KO Punchstandard special could also be customized right? so what about hadouken for one of the specials?
was gonna say it would be a neutral special thats chargeable. it takes quite a bit longer than a normal charge shot but the payoff is it is stronger with better knockback.Going by MMX logic, Hadoken would be Mega Man's own lil' KO Punch
