Gaming Megaman Battle Network Announced for GC

[Semjaza]

Seems like it's the GC version of those excellent GBA Megaman EXE games. The topshots seem to be from Megaman EXE 3, which is coming to GBA soon, while the bottom shots seem to be from the GC version. It's cel shaded and looks pretty cool.

I would prefer a [i]Megaman Zero[/i] game for GC instead of Megaman Battle Network (MBN), but its all good.:)

Well I've played MBN on the GBA, and I must say its pretty fun, the battle system in the game is pretty neat. As long it is as good as the GBA versions, I'll be satisfy.:)

[color=royalblue]Those Japanese and their crazy magazines! ^_^

The lower shots of the cel-shaded version look very pretty indeed. :)

I'm definitely going to keep an eye on this game.[/color]

[COLOR=darkred][B]Don't get me wrong, I love Megaman but in my opinion Megaman Battle Network are the weakest of the Megaman series. But they are ok none the less. I can't say I am jumping for joy, but I will probably pick it up.[/B][/COLOR]

True, but almost every Mega Man title has had the same concept to the game. And MMBN is just what they needed to turn it all around. I've never seen another game like it, really. So I hope this game turns out well, I like the Cell Shading that GCN has been using now.

Just came back from the Megaman X7 thread, now to give an update here. The offical name of this game is [i]Rockman.EXE Transmission!![/i] (In Japanese of course) Now rumor has it that Both Battle Network 3 and this GCN game will be able to link up via the GCN-GBA adapter. Now it hasn't been confirmed but judging by the pics, its a good theory. Now EXE 3 is said to be release later this year (winter most likely) in japan as well as Megaman X7. No word yet on the GCN game nor any additional information but its a safe bet it too will be realeased along with the other two Megaman games.

Now as for the EXE games. I say they are great. Certainly in a league all its own, since every other Megaman game is pretty much the same. As for its gameplay, its something you didn't expect because its the first game to have a fighting system such as that. That system is very Japanese influenced (they have way more games like that) and it wasn't until the first EXE game that the battle system was introduced in the states. Any if you don't like it, I totally recommend Megaman Zero. Its gameplay is the same as that of the X games but with new stuff. *cough*beingabletousetwoweaponsatonce*cough*

Well IGN is for some reason refering to this game as EXE: Training Mission. They have a movie here: [url]http://cubemovies.ign.com/cube/video/megaman_0922_1.mov[/url]

And another I found on a site, not sure if it's from GSC or not: [url]http://mipagina.123.cl/sacan/megamangc_tgs_111_qt.mov[/url]
