Mega Man is just some droid, I think (although that droid probably has a name) but Sonic is Lando Calrissian.

Mega Man's "real name" is Rock. It's supposed to go with his sister's name, Roll.

[up] The name change from Rock and Rockman to Megaman would later haunt them when Rockman Dash/Mega Man Legends came out.

@Pulse: I'm sure it's possible, but I'm pretty sure it's not at all practical.

Well, no, but it's a fanservice game, so I'm not being too picky.

There's also X, though that's from another sub-series.

I think the camera angle is just sorta awkward.

So the question to me isn't so much "Why did they design her to look like that?" as it is "Why did Sakurai take the picture at such an awkward angle that just so happens to give a good view of her chest... and the picture of Wii Fit Trainer's butt, and the pictures of people laying on the ground asleep...". tongue

Well, it does mean we can see the entirety of Samus and Yoshi in that shot without it being a boring straight sideways angle and also lets us grasp some degree of how Yoshi's egg's travel and how far.

I sure said that!

So, did anyone see this? Apparently, some Japanese fans thought Greninja was a super-popular fan request in the West.

I literally did not know of anybody who requested to see him in SSB 4, nor even expected him.

From the comments, I think it's more that they think Western fans are obsessed with ninjas. Anyway, I love how the Japanese reactions to stuff are pretty much exactly like ours. Right down to commenters says "don't like, don't buy."

Why aren’t there any Xenoblade characters yet?

The Rockman All-stars was the best part. Hey, Capcom! You paying attention?!

Sakurai said Zero Suit Samus is weak, but I always thought she was a pretty powerful character

Fanboys: “60 FPS & full HD or bust”

Nintendo Direct’s over, back to bed I go

Where’s Ike?!

Looks like typical fans are typical everywhere. evil grinevil grin Gaming truly does bring us together.

[up]The only difference is that there were seemingly no flame wars over Ridley's shadow, or the bemoaning of their favorite characters becoming Assist Trophies.[up]tongue

Hmmm, I have to tentatively concede the point on Samus' pose. There's the chance that it's just a frame from a gorgeously animated exaggerated motion, in which case, fair enough! Gorgeous animation is gorgeous. If the animation for that attack is just "go into pose, stay in pose, go out of pose", though... *shrugs* Could go either way!

That's the Japanese name of The Mysterious Murasame Castle, the game starring Takamaru that runs on a version of the Zelda 1 engine.
