Just a poll I made for fun.

You know the banner we have up here in the Original Series forum? With MegaMan and Roll in it? Well, I was thinkin... \"Why not switch out Roll for ProtoMan, or Bass?\". So, do we put MegaMan up there with his faithful companion, Rush? His mysterious brother, ProtoMan? His long-time Rival, Bass? Or maybe his arch-nemesis, Wily! Well, maybe we can keep Roll, too.

What do you think?

Beind as how there is no reason to truly change it, it probably won\'t change. If it did, Roll should be switched out for Forte.

I think it should be Mega and Rush, because Rush was and will always be there for Mega to help him in tight spots, and Rush/Mega fusion was the precursor to soul unison.

Hrmmm....

Either Bass or Wily. You know, just because it\'s always nice to supply all those villainous types out there with some gratification without actually having to allow them to conquer the world.

Think about it, what are the two characters who you think of first when you hear:

MEGAMAN CLASSIC

Probably Bass and Megaman. Probably X and Zero if I\'d said Megaman X, but I didn\'t. I said:

MEGAMAN CLASSIC :P

(Just imagine the caps as a booming voice :P)

When I think of MegaMan classic, the two characters that come to mind are MegaMaqn and PROTOMAN. ProtoMan \'cause he\'s the older brother, and his reddish tint compliments our Blue Bomber\'s color-scheme.

Dr. Light might even be a good choice. Of course, if Bass rules in favor, I think I can guess what picture of him will go up.

If the doc puts megaman and bass, then he should do the same in the other forums, example:
X forum: X and sigma
Battle network: Megaman.exe bass.exe
l Like rush, its his best pal and always with him

Have you thought that megaman 9 might be the last one (where Zero is revealed) why? well the first games used Roman numbers I II III IV V
So maybe the megaman X we know is actually megaman 10!!

Rock, Roll, Rush, Doctor Light, and Doctor Wily.

Bass is far too new to be considered \'classic\'. Everyone just likes him because he says \"damn\" and wears black armor.

I don\'t really know why it should change. I think it\'s great the way it is. But if he changes it, I think the doc should go with Rush.

Yeah, I guess we have to put Bass in Megaman classic, since we basically define each series by its Megaman. Since Bass was still in the same world as the OG Megaman, he has to be put in the same category as the others who were involved. It seems probable to call this forementioned world/series the \"Megaman Classic\" series. I kinda prefer \"Original\" myself, just cause I use the term all the time.:P

Oh, no wonder I never heard of it..

Just because a big (selfcentered) website uses it, doesn\'t mean everyone else has heard of it OR wants to use it. :P

I, as probably alot of other older Megaman fans, don\'t consider Bass as part of Classic Megaman BECAUSE he showed up in the last two games as a Dynamo-esque side character that gets in your way. IF Bass was like Vile and showed up in a pivotal role in the first game (and got revived however many times) then yes, I\'d consider him a classic icon. I personally like Bass (alot of the older fans don\'t) but..I won\'t ever consider him a \'classic\' anything.

Well, maybe in 2030 I will. :P

Aimman\'s got a point, I always call it \'original\' myself as well. It\'s the first by far. A game made in 1998 isn\'t \'classic\'. Maybe to a 9 year old, but not to me.

Lessee here.

Bass appeared in MegaMan-7, where, lets face it, the entire plot revolved around him.

He came back in MegaMan-8. Now, I\'m going to assume that there\'s a nice, big time gap between 7 and 8, meaning that if Bass and MegaMan are STILL fighting by the time 8 rolls around, then, surely, they\'ve encountered each other several times after 7 ended. (After all, he IS programmed to hunt down and destroy MegaMan. He\'s not exactly one to take a break, now.)

We see Bass, AGAIN, in the once-japanese-only game, \"RockMan and Forte\", in which Bass is the first in MegaMan history to become an optional player character. (Poor ProtoMan... -_-) This gives more proof that he is, in fact, an important character in the \"Classic\" series.

And even then, let\'s not forget all the spin-offs he\'s appeared in. The Power Battles, Power Fighters, Battle AND Fighters, Battle and Chase... I\'m sure there\'s more.

The point is, you may not consider Bass a classic character, but CAPCOM does. And I think it\'s obvious which one of you has the most important opinion in this matter. :P
