Talk:Mega Man 8

message: I noticed you removed the actual number I put in the () after 20XX, but the date of 2012 is actually accurate to the date that this game takes place.  If you have read my entries for the other Mega Man games you will see that this makes sense.  The original "Mega Man" (1987) takes place in 200X and then "Mega Man 2" takes place a couple months later also in 200X, then "Mega Man 3" takes place six months later in 200X and finally "Mega Man 4" takes place a year later in 20XX and so does 5.  Anyhow, that would make the first occurance of 20XX the year 2010 since 200X would take place in the first decade of this century.  Thus, going backwards, "Mega Man 3" would take place in 2009 (a year before 4) and then "Mega Man 2" and the original take place in 2008 (which is when Capcom said they took place in).  The latest game in the Classic series would be "Rockman & Forte" (1998) which was ported as "Mega Man & Bass" (2002), and that would take place in 2013.  Of course, Dr. Light worked on Mega Man X in 2014, which goes along with his discovery by Dr. Cain sometime around the year 2114, 100 years later (as per the copyright on his computer in the original "Mega Man X" for the SNES).  Just thought you might find that interesting. --Yahweh 04:09, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: 3 is actually in 20XX.  Anyway you also keep saying that Rock was built in 2008 which is totally wrong.. the Nobel Prize ceremony for the Robot Master was in 2007 (THIS date, unlike all of yours, IS official), so the first batch of RMs were created before that, Rock included; and this happened in 200X as per 4's opening, which gives us a 7-year window for the creation of Blues, Rock & Roll, and the 6 production-type RMs. --Boco XLVII 15:55, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: And, as mentioned, fanon dates, which all of yours are, should not be included! They're unofficial, and you can't cite any source except yourself apparently, so I say they're unencyclopedic. --Shadow Hog 16:16, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

message: I've started a discussion about including Robot Masters in Mega Man articles at the Video Game project talk page.  If you have an opinion, please remark here. Lumaga (talk) 06:29, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

message: Perhaps it could be possible to mention the fanmade "NES" remake of this game, as the article for Mega Man 7 mentions Rockman 7 FC. 68.4.214.54 (talk) 23:12, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
