Robot Masters[edit]

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) 06:28, 27 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like the discussion's over; it doesn't appear anywhere on the page you've linked to. What was the outcome?--Martin IIIa (talk) 15:21, 5 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary cancellation[edit]

I've just added a statement that Capcom had cancelled the game in summer 1994 but later went ahead and released it. I found this info in an issue of GamePro, but I'm a bit uncertain about it. For one thing, I find it odd that this generally well-researched article had no mention of a cancellation before this. A cancellation of such a high-profile game should have been widely reported in the gaming media. Also, the GamePro statement says they reported the announced cancellation in the letters page of their August 1994 issue, but I've triple-checked the letters page of that issue and there's no mention of Mega Man 7 whatsoever. I checked the news section for good measure, but again, nothing about Mega Man 7. Any thoughts on this would be much appreciated.--Martin IIIa (talk) 15:15, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

An external link that is dead forever[edit]

This is notify that the link

  • Greenstein, Jane (September 8, 1995). "Game publishers tighten supply to control market". Video Business. Reed Business Information. Retrieved April 16, 2010.

is looking like it is dead forever. There is no archived copies of that source, and it looks like it won't be available anywhere else. --Lone Guardian (talk) 22:29, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'll do this one. TarkusABtalk 02:31, 17 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Plot

  • I haven't played the game, but I've played other Mega Mans and I don't feel the plot in these games is of much significant importance. I feel it could be explained in a paragraph. I think this plots goes into too much detail, like "Mega Man counters that he is "more than a robot". (In the Japanese version, Mega Man stands in silence.)", mentions of every brief skirmish and fight, and the theatric play-by-play.
  • Plot should come after gameplay, especially in a game more gameplay-centric

Gameplay

  • Info at the end of paragraph one is missing a source.
    • For some strange reason I can't find an online source on this. Its in the game so I might need to source the game. GamerPro64 03:53, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
      • In that case, could we find a source that just give the general flow without all the boss detail? (i.e. Only some robots are available at the beginning, as the player continues, more robot masters are unlocked to play). Most of the detail there now isn't helpful. I'm not familiar with the game so the boss names tell me nothing. Since we can't find a source, maybe that's saying something about how important it is. TarkusABtalk 06:29, 2 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • No other comments, pretty well written

Development

Reception

Lead

  • The video game was released in Japan I don't think I've ever read someone write "The video game...", maybe just "The game..." works better?
  • The infobox is overpopulated with credits. According to the template documentation, if three or more people are credited for a role, leave it out or put into prose if that important. Only the "lead" people should be in the infobox.
  • The Windows release is just emulation, no? Should be removed from infobox.

Other

  • Images are good
  • No Copyvio issues
  • Sources should be archived (Recommended not required)

I will review Dev, Reception, Lede tomorrow. TarkusABtalk 04:15, 23 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@GamerPro64: OK I am done with my first pass. TarkusABtalk 12:35, 23 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@TarkusAB: I took care of answering all your comments. GamerPro64 03:34, 29 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@GamerPro64: Responded to three items. TarkusABtalk 06:29, 2 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@TarkusAB: I responded to your comments. GamerPro64 02:42, 10 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
OK cool looks good, pass. TarkusABtalk 19:33, 10 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Citation for E-Tank Usage[edit]

I feel as if the citation for how an E-Tank works could be better, i.e. linking to the game's manual (or even Mega Man 2's manual, since that's where it was first introduced). Problem is, although I would follow the advice at the top of this talk page, I don't know how to cite these. I've read through multiple citation articles, and they just left me even more confused.
