So which series would dovetail into Legends then?

Zero leads to ZX, which is pretty much perfectly leads into Legends.

But what would the post X8 series lead into?

Or could they use it to start something new?

X8 leads to Command Mission, or so I've heard claimed. From there, who knows?

My headcanon is that after X6's Distant Finale happens in a scenario where X7 and and X8 don't happen, leading into the Zero games. X7 and X8 are part of a splinter timeline that leads into Command Mission.

My theory is that after ZXA, Master Thomas's plan to reset the world succeeded because nobody knew about it, resulting in the mostly-peaceful Legends world without nay humans at all.

[up][up]The promo pic for the Megaman series, as seen in one of the photos in the linked page, is right next to a promo pic for the new Teletubbies series.

It's a rather odd juxtaposition.

[up] Except the Legends backstory did have humans at one point. One theory is that Legends takes place after the ZX series and the "Carbons" are actually the end result of the gradual merging of humans and Reploids seen in the series. It's rather poignant that humanity did not go extinct through violence but rather just gradually got replaced by their own descendants. The conflict in Legends is due to the system left behind by "pure" humans who did not want their species to go wholly extinct.

It'd be somewhat ironic that peace is what ultimately brings about the end of humanity.

I'm pretty sure that Legends does take place several millenia after ZX.

Rumor: Singapore PSN seems to have leaked the released date (October 3rd) and synopsis for MM11.

We also have an interview with Kazuhiro Tsuchiya, the producer of Mega Man X Legacy Collection 1+2 and Mega Man 11.

Tidbit we should probably pay attention to:

Famitsu: How were the details on the production of MMX Legacy Collection getting set in stone in the first place?

Tsuchiya: In the Mega Man 30th anniversary milestone, we wanted to not only make the 11th Mega Man but also to seriously revive Mega Man as a brand. Mega Man X has fans around the world just like the original, and he’s having his 25th anniversary this year.

In order to make Mega Man X—which was considered a masterpiece—playable in the modern era, we need to revive the brand. And if we miss this opportunity, there might be no chance for Mega Man X to go through his 30th anniversary. With such a reason, we decided to release it on the timing of his 25th anniversary.

I refuse to believe it until I see it.

And if they do announce it, I refuse to believe it will come out until it actually happens.

Think the game will have jabs at Mighty No. 9 and Inafune?

[up] Essentially:

What people said about MN9 post-release: We immediately regret what we said beforehand! sad


What Capcom thought before MN9's release: We can't do a new Mega Man without Inafune! sad

What Capcom thought after MN9's release: ...Hold our E-Tank. evil grin

Soo... Has someone played Megaman 8bit Deathmatch? Is a FPS fangame that is surprisingly cool.

The main reason that I wanted to mention it is, because the theme used for the boss battle against the Gutsdozer from Megaman 2, has a pretty... "Famous" sound. For anyone who is familiar with the Ruby Spears cartoon

It got a chuckle out of me.

Kinda sad that they went on hiatus though, would've been nice if they added 10 to the game's story in time for 11.
