I hope you all are having a great Friday and enjoying the video! What other games would you want to see timelines of? Let us know in the comments below. Have a great weekend! :)

You forgot when megaman, with his revived past robot masters he defeated, formed a soccer team. That was his greatest adventure by far.

So this all happened cause some guy got mad at his friend

As a kid: Wily is a jealous old coot and Light is robo Santa As an adult: They both caused the destruction and near extinction of the planet.

The classic megaman series just feels like an prologue to the timeline

Dr Light: creates robots to give Humanity prosperity and peace the entrire franchise: *SO YOU HAVE CHOSEN W A R*

This whole franchise really feels like Zero is the main protagonist

"Mega Man Legends 3 was cancelled like 10 years ago" IT HURTS. OH GOD. IT HURTS.

is it me, or does Zero really deserve a long ass nap?

Konami: "Think we made Castlevania confusing?" Capcom: "Hold my sake"

Yes, give me that megaman battle Network and Storforce goodies!

Megaman zero was the first megaman series I got into and it’s probably the darkest one compared to the others

Look at all the near extinction events that happened through the centuries, no millennias because of two robotic scientist rivalry.

This timeline is depressing at times man...

4:00 I didn’t know I needed this until now. *Down with doctor wiwee*

This entire series after X came to be turned into: "so did you destroy everything?" Yeah "And did you evaporate everything after you destroyed it?" Yeah "Even the screws and fragments?" Well not really, I got rid of the problem tho And then a single screw left behind becomes a super weapon

We need to revive the Battle Network series. Maybe as a game where you can make your own Net Navi.

I loved Mega Man X back in the day. It never occurred to me how rich and insidious the lore of Mega Man was until I listened to this timeline.

“Capcom gives Megaman the respect he deserves.” * mmx7 appears on screen * “Or not.” **WHEEZE**

As someone who knows way too much about megaman. This was great video that summed up the megaman timeline perfectly! I hope this helps more people get into the series so we can finally get the fabled megaman legends 3.

4:02 "Wi-wee" ... I get it

This all makes a lot more sense to me hearing you explain it than when I was playing the games. I would love to see a Megaman Battle Network Series video. I always sort of thought that they were sort of like prequels, like maybe the internet programs gave light and Wily their ideas or something. Either way, it would be great to relive the series (especially if we somehow forgot that starforce ever happened). Those were truly some of my favorite games of all time.

10:00 "Somehow still alive Zero" 😂😂

I love how you call him "Wiwy" after the terrible voice acting in Mega Man 8 lol nice touch.

Mega Man is such a legendary gaming franchise.

Recently I've been hearing a theory that the timeline actually splits after X6, with one timeline going off into X7, X8 and Command Mission, while the other timeline goes off into the Zero series.

You guys have insane timing on uploading this. I just ordered the Megaman X Collection for Switch and have been looking up timeline videos. Then I see this notification in my phone. Are you all watching me? 👀

Nice nutshell although I think not entirely correct: The holographic Obi Wan Kenobi is Light not Cain. And at the end of X7 it is Axl who transforms into Red to trick Sigma (Red was destroyed in the battle before), so Axl tricks sigma (not red).

Reploid revo: *yawn it's about time*

So glad you slipped in "Wiwy" a couple times

Fun fact: yesterday I was re watching the megaman trailer for smash wich is _W I L D_

HOW did you compile this much information and explain it in a manner that looks so effortless.... dude you are an actual beast wth

Some robotics place caused centuries of war, and the death of all humans because they didn't let Willy use the double gear system.

This game defines the word 'Madness' and also teaches us to be contempt with what you have and achieved and not be greedy

Megaman Legends will be forever in my heart.

Really well done! I'm a super Battle Network fan and I appreciate that you guys recognized it as a separate timeline rather than a branching timeline because other videos tend to get that wrong. And seeing Rockman Strategy mentioned was pretty cool too, it's nice to see some of the more obscure stuff get a little attention~

20:31 Ah heck yeah! Megaman BN/SF timeline series!

Dang Megaman X gets dark fast

Nailed it! Original MM, X , Zero & Legends Series are my all time favorites. I love the X & Legends storylines. They weren't complete.

I know the timeline forward and backwards, but I never get tired of it. Great vid, CAPCOM will always be my favorite!

Well thought out and presented. Gotta go find my old Megaman collectables now!

Mega Man 8 might be the most important game. Duo and the unnamed robot he was fighting in space might be what gave X and Zero their power. Most notably the unnamed robot and his "Evil Energy" might be the origin of the Maverick Virus. Duo does return in Power Fighters. Could it be possible he gave Dr. Light some of his power? Which negates Evil Energy. Why else would Dr. Light been working so hard on X? Perhaps he knew it was too late and Dr. Wily did get ahold of the Evil Energy and unlocked its power!

In one of X5's endings, X mentions his dream of a place called Elysium where humans and reploids can live together. Mega Man Legends 2 was made around that time so I feel like Capcom was trying to hint that Legends was indeed connected without literally spelling it out. It was a nice touch. This means that X's dream kinda comes true... before Elysium screws everything up again.

I got into the megaman battle network series first as a kid and vaguely knew about the others after. It’s funny knowing that my favorite part is the alternate timeline, but I didn’t know megaman had so much more

Didnt realize megaman legends was connected to the original series. I loved 1 and 2

In Megaman X6, the timeline continuity splits into two due to Zero’s choice on whether to sleep or not to study the virus that used to be implanted in him. The choice where Zero doesn’t go to sleep leads to X7, X8 and Command Mission. And the choice where he goes to sleep leads to the Zero series and ZX series and eventually the Legends series.

I’m still holding on to the hope of Capcom finally coming around and reviving Mega Man Legends 3 in order to get our favorite blue bomber off of the moon! Either Capcom makes it happen or the fans will…sooner or later…!

Great videos! Though a few errors: In X5, that is Dr. Light not Kain. The X6 zero ending (when he puts himself to sleep) happens at the end of the X timeline (I know its confusing) Also, Dr. Wily reappears as an X hunter in X2, Isoc in X6 and maybe some connection to Weil. Couldn't find any others. Great job on this timeline, one of the best ones I've seen.

My childhood was Megaman X, but my brother was playing the game, i just watched, its sad to know he's dead but a heroic dad, he's tired of fighting anyway

'Rockman and Roll from Rock and Roll' did blew my mind.

Need Megaman Legends remake.

This is what ive been waiting for. Seeing this in my recommended was the best thing ever

Very well done Marcus. Thank you for this rundown! 🙏🏾

In X5 that was Dr.Light's Hologram, you said Caine.

I loved these games so much as a kid but i didn‘t understand english very well so this is the first time i‘m learning about any of the lore! I didn‘t even know Megeman and Megaman X happen in the same universe!

I freaking love MegaMan so freaking much thank you for talking about it.

Madness! I had no idea there were so many games in the series... I distinctly remember playing Mega Man X, and a few others after that... glad I searched your video - very interesting!

Please would love to see a complete timeline of the Megaman.EXE and Starforce series.

I’ve watched a few of these timeline. You def do it the best IMO. Straight to the point and easy to follow

Oh I have been waiting SOOOOOOOO long for a mega man timeline thank you for doing this

give me that juicy star force and network timeline video I love those games

*Cain's* hologram fixes up X. That's an odd way to spell Dr. Light.

Mega man 8 for the PS1 was my first experience with the blue bomber, really brings back the memories and the memes will make it live forever

That was beautiful. I’m so happy I watched this video. This over view of the story was amazing. I didn’t know mega man legends was in the future of mega man X and ZX that’s amazing. It’s so sad we won’t have a mega man legends 3. We live in a world where 23 years later we get a final fantasy 7 remake but no megaman legends 3.

I didn't even know Legends had anything to do with the main timeline. I thought it was a stand alone series.

Awesome video! I would be grateful to have a rundown on Megaman X4, first I owed and it's the first time Zero is playable the whole game !

I find it heart wrenching that the timeline could have stayed in peace after the events of ZX and it did for a very long time, but Legends happened. Bringing uncertainty to this timeline's future once more. (Doesn't help that both ZX and Legends are dealing with an ongoing cliffhanger)

Yes! Finally I've been waiting 4-5 months for this!!!

Megaman Zero is my personal favorite series. Zero finally found what he was fighting for BELIEVE IN ME..........CIEL!!!!!!!!!!

And literally yesterday I was talking about the whole timeline lol

Good timeline video! Thanks for uploading!

Fun - Fact I Was Just Playing Mega Man 2 I just got introduced to the series This is helpful

No idea that series went that deep

I would love to see a megaman network timeline!!!!

i'm a huge megaman fan . i learned a good deal of things i did not know from this. great timeline vid.

I've only played megaman vii as a kid but haven't played one since then I've always wanted to really get into the series but had no idea where to start because there so many games this helps out a lot.

Command Mission was meant to be canon and takes place between the X series and Zero series. Either Zero was reawakened to participate (although there is no actual evidence of this) similar to how it is strongly implied he was reawakened to help X fight in the Cyber Elf Wars, or he was put in stasis sometime after Command Mission and was not in stasis for the full 100 years (which makes more sense considering he had to be awakened by Ciel instead of awakening on his own).

Serpent's company is called Slither, Inc, not Serpent, Inc

Still waiting for that Megaman Legends 3. I remember playing it fondly back in the day

Please do the Battle Network timeline. I loved the series a lot!!

Your timeline videos are great. Keep up the good work

I am 26 yrs old and Megaman X was the game that made me fall in love with the franchise. I've beat almost all the X series games, I really didnt like the original Megaman 1-11 games and i never knew the story were connected. Thank you for explaining the timeline. The Battle Network and Star Force series were my favorite games growing up and TODAY I learn that alot of original characters and designs for the battle network series comes from the original Megaman series. Please make a timeline video of the Battle Network & Star Force.

God, Leaderboard. You guys really do your research unlike other timelines, and I really appreciate it. One question I have for the fandom is how exactly was the classic series wiped out? I thought the staroids were the ones that destroyed everything and caused Dr. Cane to find X and Zero later, but am not certain.

that was actually pretty badass! thanks for the missing time line in my life lol love MEga Man!!

One of my favorite franchises of all time ❤️ ... I cannot wait for either Mega Man 12 or X9, whichever comes out first. Hopefully we get both, as there are still unanswered questions in the 20XX timeline.

I would love to see a megamen starforce timeline

I love Zero and BOI the parts in the timeline about him make me sad, along with X as well

Suscribed!! Great content, congrats! Cheers from Mexico City!

i always thought megaman command mission felt like a true closure to the series, the end boss was superb, ending tied up everything, but yeah is non canon

LEGENDS!!

Yes please make a video on the Battle Network/Star force timeline. Its an amazing series

I swear everytime i play something old, this channel makes a video about it

Battle network let's go, and capcom should definitely make battle network collection for the switch

I hope we get a Mega Man Legends collection some day

Love the callbacks to Lights lisp! Wiwy

I never knew that the Megaman Legends series took place in the same continuity as the original series and X series. Thoes were my favorite as well.. I'm still upset that Legends 3 got cancelled..

Well, it should be mentioned that most of this story wouldn’t happen if events in Megaman, Megaman 2, and Megaman 3 planned out differently. After Wily’s defeat in Megaman he’s captured. It’s doubtful he’s created the robots from Megaman 7 yet. Despite catching him red handed and capturing him they believe him when he says he’s reformed and wants to help. Megaman 2 they allow him to go free... and he makes 8 robot masters and tries taking over the world again. He’s captured again. In 3 dr. Light and Wily work on making mining robots and gamma. Because apparently trying to conquer the world twice is a forgivable offensive and they don’t need to give him jail time. The mining robots go berserk and attack and it’s Wily’s doing. The end he’s presumed dead. It’s doubtful he had made the robots of Megaman 7 or had a similar plan by then. But it’s likely that in Megaman 4 he kidnapped Cossacks daughter and black mailed him to try and take over the world freeing up time to start work on contingency plans like junk man, cloudman, burst man, and freeze man. Leaving them in a hidden lab with instructions to bail him out of jail if he’s ever gone for too long. He escapes in Megaman 4 (first time). Megaman 5 protons is likely framed to give him more time to work on these bots. He also escapes. Megaman 6 he likely poses as Mr. X and convinces others to make bots for him to free up time to work on Bass, freezeman, cloud man, junkman, treble, and burstman. He’s finally captured. But.... uh... it’s too late. Had they never gave him a 2nd or 3rd chance in Megaman 2 and 3 he wouldn’t have had the time to set up robots to free him in the event of imprisonment. Megaman 7 shows they really needed to stop trusting him a lot earlier. If they did he’d be in jail, Zero wouldn’t have been created and the X series would be without the virus. The world would be peaceful. Without the virus the X series wouldn’t happen, it would just be peaceful. Elf wars also depended on the virus and pretty much the whole series is a domino effect of letting wilt go free at the start of Megaman 2 and 3.

Giving WIWY the materials and tech he needs to strike again.

9:34 “Sigma shows up to ruined everyone’s day” That always got me

Ty I needed this
