Boxart's out, and so is Call's weapon and a huge change to Beck's design.

At least now we have a new image to put on the trope page XD His design reminds me of X1-X3 box art!Mega Man X.

Still they want lots of like 10 Grand just to add the new content.

I thought only female characters were that expensive to animate

Hopefully they'll end up adding something like Endless Mode :D

Wait, they changed Beck from being mostly grey-ish to mostly white?

Well, I'm actually liking it more than I thought I would, but really, why the color change?

Was grey too drab? Or is it to symbolize that Beck's a ''blank'' slate?

They explained it. It's because white is a combination of all colors and it symbolizes that Beck is taking after the other Mighty Numbers via his upgrades. Or something like that.

Ah yeah, I read about that.

I'm a little sad to see that Mighty No. 9 seems to be ridiculously popular while its brother series, Azure Striker Gunvolt, only has 32 posts on its thread.

Call's new weapon looks neat, though. Reminds me of Roll's Bow and Arrow from Battle Network.

It's not that hard to see why this is more popular though.

Well, I'd assume it's because this was better advertised and promoted, has gameplay that's more or less exactly the same as Classic, and also has transformations which make things more varied.

Gunvolt is more like Zero 1 in which you pretty much have a static character who stays the same aside from just getting more weapons.

Um, everyone knows about Beck's rival, Ray, right?

I'm gonna be straight here, the first time I saw him, the first thing that popped in my head was "Shin Getter 1".

Anyone else thought the same thing?

The pitenrial DLC guy? Yeah. And as my friend pointed out "a black guy designed by a Japanese developer that doesn't have balloon lips".

So what's the general consesnsus with Beck's white re-coloring?

I imagine most, if not everyone, is liking it.

You really think people are gonna cause a fuss over something as trivial as a colour scheme

Um, I'm just asking how people are liking Beck's new color scheme.

Beck looks fine, although matte white looks a leeeeeeetle plain. Giving him a light-on-dark colour scheme would have been interesting.

I already said that I like it, so there's that.

But come to think of it, with that color scheme, doesn't he look like he could be a future cop or something?

Not that that's a bad thing…

I like it. He certainly looks more futuristic than he did in gr[e/a]y.

It's out now? Or still in production?

Still being developed.

Yes I he sort of looked like a knight previously. Now he's more like an astronaut or something.

Best cosplay this season

So I just thought of something. The 3DS version is the only version of the game not for a console or a computer. Do you think it'll use the same graphics or do you think they'd go with a different style?

The 3DS is pretty powerful. This isn't exactly next-gen graphics, so I'd imagine it would be the same as the console version, with maybe a lower resolution.

Technically everything is a computer. Including consoles.

But the 3DS has a fair bit of grunt behind it. It's as least powerful as the Game Cube. Perhaps even rivalling the original wii.

The only weakpoint of the 3DS hardware is the low PPI for screen resolution.
