You shut your filthy mouth. Joking. Random fact some people may not know (I'm sure most on this forum do though): Zero was the original design for Mega Man X.

Because Capcom said that the new Rockman couldn't be red; the BLUE BOMBER is an icon, so you can't just go and change him to RED.
But why they are changing Dante's hair to black on DMC? Capcom just adds so much crap on their games sometimes, or removes what people really liked from previous games, like on X5 and X6, you couldn't use separate parts of armors you already got (I've already said that, but I think it's an example of things that everyone liked and Capcom simply removed from the games).
Because X wasn't an established series and they wanted fans to recognize the design so that they would buy the game. And after it's been established, THEN they could do whatever they wanted.
Capcoms been slipping up these past few years. I don't know why and maybe its just me but I don't like what they've been doing to RE and Street Fighter.
uh zero was wily's creation, not some original that X was based on, see the cutscenes in X4 and a few other games in the series (the arcade game endings have scenes of wily talking about building him). X was made by dr.light and zero by wily to destroy X. if you've played through most or all of the megaman games then i don't really see how you can get that info wrong. Sigma however was based on X, X and Cain used the best tech to make sigma and make him seemingly immune to all viruses (i think that part about the viruses is correct, not sure).
as for legends 3 and universe getting cancelled: CAPCOM SUCKS >.< at least on that move
He was talking about Capcom's decisions, not the plotline from the games...
Still, you're correct for the most part.
I can't recall hearing Zero was going to be X, but I do recall hearing that Zero was actually supposed to be a girl, in the Rock (Megaman) and Roll fashion.
hmm thought i may've been wrong in some part... zero being originally planned as a girl doesn't sound too far off however, i could see that happening as a possibility
I'm pretty sure Zero was always meant to be a male. People are just put off by the long hair and the fact that he has large, round orbs on his chest.
That and people wanted to think Zero was a rebuild of Roll, just like they said X was a rebuild of Rock. Both of which are patently false.
