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! :)
More detail please
Dark souls timeline next maybe
I don’t know if this has been done but how about a street fighter timeline
Thank you for making putting the legends games within the timeline properly. I always see people calling it an alternate timeline when it isn't.
This needs to be redone there's alot of thing wrong and Miss from this timeline and this is inaccurate information
So this all happened cause some guy got mad at his friend
Dr.wahwee
Grad school will do some crazy things to ya, I tell you what.
Grudges lasting for lifetimes are forged in college.
This does not surprise me.
Patternman Stahhhhhhp. I haven’t heard that in ages 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yep.
You forgot when megaman, with his revived past robot masters he defeated, formed a soccer team. That was his greatest adventure by far.
he forgot when they tested their skills in a car race
I actually remember that soccer game of many megamans..
*football
It's football. You play with your foot, not with your socc.
I swear to god if there going to be a fight in the reply section arguing if it’s called “football” or “soccer”
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.
As an elder: just two weeks for my robot to wake up, I hope he does good for the world

The classic megaman series just feels like an prologue to the timeline
Yeah…………….
Would have been cool if the other spin off series also dove into the aliens, ancient tech and time travel elements of the Classic series... So far they have only developed the pro man vs pro machines aspect, all while never actually having much human representation until the point where cyborgs are a common thing.
Kinda odd tbh.
@@mariogameplays2144 Fr.
@@zettovii1367 well mega man world 5 on the game boy was entirely in space and is canon to the timeline
@@pclear
I guess it kinda counts as a spinoff, but I meant more other series that takes place after the Classic in the main timeline (like X, Zero, ZX and Legends).
MegaMan World is still just part of Classic MegaMan, same with Rockman Strategy and both MegaMan and Bass games.
This whole franchise really feels like Zero is the main protagonist
@END OF DAYS bro ZX is good af wdym

@@russiancheems2275 I like Mega Man Zero's story though, but that's probably because Zero was my introduction to the franchise. And my childhood. Ah~, the memories.
@@russiancheems2275 ZX was garbage. It was barely mega Man at all.
"Mega Man Legends 3 was cancelled like 10 years ago"
IT HURTS. OH GOD. IT HURTS.
Good lord I remember vividly the frustration of reading that they decided to cancel it after so much work with the community.
IT'S STILL TOO SOON
I would kill for a megaman legends remake and 3
i felt that sting too buddy, i was there! waiting for dev room updates!
I feel ur pain man 😢😢😢😢
is it me, or does Zero really deserve a long ass nap?
I mean, didn't he get it in the time between the Mega Man X and Zero games?
@@arbi9506 yeah, but still. he's been fighting crime and he caused so much trouble, causing the Maverick virus to spread to accidentally causing a replica of himself to other things i'm not gonna list.
Well I mean he died so...
But X deserved one even more because he was the one who had to beat up Wily like 12 times, then sit in a capsule maturing for 200 years, then stop Sigma 8 times while also stomping out a civil war and falling satellite before fighting his best friend and then create a robot paradise in which a copy version of him ruled as emperor before finally getting put to rest.

Yes, give me that megaman battle Network and Storforce goodies!
When it takes only a few games to take a child hero merging with his lost twin digital reincarnation to become a virtual god all for the sake of a Saturday morning cartoon I start to feel old. I prefer the drama of Protoman not trusting Light to repair him, giving him an existential crisis. Legends ends with the question of rather or not humanity is even worth saving... I just can't with exe but you guys are welcome to enjoy it. I just think Capcom could and should do better.
#GetMeOffThisMoon
YESS
The battle network games are so legendary 🔥
Foreal tho, Starforce is so underrated
🍍 I have the whole collection
Megaman zero was the first megaman series I got into and it’s probably the darkest one compared to the others
The Zero series is far and away the darkest Megaman series. It also has the deepest plot of all the sidescrollers by a *WIDE* margin.
Legends is darker because its literally says that all humans and reploids are dead and half the planet is full of water
And all the characters from the past characters are gone
@@charmingmagican9821 That doesn't make it darker
@@ASNS117Zero whatever MegaMan had the bloodied up, ripped apart sigma seems to take the cake for me. I want more of that sooooo baaaaaf
@@dreamcastdazia4753 tbf Zero 4 ends in a bittersweet yet optimistic note, that despite the sacrifices made, the world can finally find peace in the end.
Legends declared that Zero's and X's struggles and sacrifices are ultimately meaningless, with the conflicts never stopping and that it ends with mankind and reploidkind going extinct. And Juno wants to genocide the carbons. Legends is pretty lighthearted outwardly but it's still pretty grim between the lines.
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
The Original Mega Man and Mega Man X series are the only story lines that matter, the others are contrived and convoluted.
@@Ganning220 no wrong answer they arent contrived or convoluted.
Well this does seem like the X series it seems like it you leave a little piece and boom war once more
@@akatsukigajou1639 They are... Everything about the elves is boring. Floating piece of light bulb that doesn't serve the story at all.
@@damsen978 You just hate the name. You'll probably be more accepted if they take a more "robotic" name instead of Elves
Look at all the near extinction events that happened through the centuries, no millennias because of two robotic scientist rivalry.
According to Mega Man 11, this trouble started because Wily thought giving robots unstoppable power and speed would mean they would always be respected. Light saw the danger in this idea and counter-proposed giving robots advanced AI and a moral compass so they could not be easily coerced into evil. Wily did his best to spite this idea and reprogram as many robots to turn on humans as he could. For as much as many people want to place the blame on Light for the troubles of the Mega Man world, it has always started with Wily's pride and thirst for power.
Millennias upon millennia of near extinction events and crazy conflicts, and all because two guys couldn’t get along in college.
Sounds hot to me
@Hannah Linstead well human at that point chose to fuse with machine for longer life less disease stronger while still can eat food and other stuff ,it normal for people to chose better thing

Just like real life.
The robot timeline (classic, x, zero, zx, legends) is super depressing and full of wars
Meanwhile the internet timeline (BN, star force) is just your average saturday morning cartoon
@@ari-mariberry unless we count a Megaman Exe being a dead baby.
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.
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.
And how tf is getting more people into megaman gona make legends 3 happen.? -_-
Btw subed.
@@VladAngelOfDarkness By force. That how. We attack at dawn
We need to revive the Battle Network series. Maybe as a game where you can make your own Net Navi.
Yes!!
Dope
I think GameFreak should help Capcom with the game a custom Net Navi and exploring a 3d world and battling almost like pokemon all on the Switch
DLC and like update on chips
wouldd fuckinngng love that!!!
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.
The battle network series is more like a "what if" spin-off. As in "what if" the internet and cyber space took off instead of robotics. Ironically, that's how the real world is and I think we're closer to net navis than reploids
In the battle network timeline Dr Light is Lans grandfather, and hes already passed away. Dont know how the hell Wily is still alive tho
I also thought it was prequel in a way. And in my canon I make it fit as such lol
The going theory for this is that Dr. Wily's AI program ideas got the proper funding and recognition instead of Dr. Light's robotics ideas. So in a sense, the timeline was the same up until Dr. Light builds Light Labs (or around there)
What's wrong with Star Force?
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.
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? 👀
Google is watching....
*Yes*
THEY always watch you
4:02 "Wi-wee"
... I get it
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.
That’s the most confusing part of the timeline since Capcom won’t give us a clear direction to go to.
As far as we know, after X8, the Elf Wars start, blah blah blah, Zero sealed, you get the point.
But some signs point to the timeline going to Command Mission instead, while the Elf Wars and beyond are non-canon.
@@amso7169 there is no way in hell the Zero and ZX series are non-canon.
@@Morgil27
I thought the same but either Taicom fucked up or some changes happened in the timeline post-Inafune leaving.
Are lines storys:
X6 Zero´s Ending -> Zero Series
X6 X´s Ending -> X7 ->X8 > Command Mission.
@@kinlun124 or…
X6 X’s Ending -> X7 -> X8 -> Supposedly X8 sequel explaining AXL/lumine fate -> X6 Zero’s Ending -> Supposedly a sequel explaining ELF & the end of maverick wars -> MMZ and so on.
Command mission is a clear non-canon based on the timeline
HOW did you compile this much information and explain it in a manner that looks so effortless.... dude you are an actual beast wth
too bad he got some things wrong and is spreading misinformation.
@@4everRageHFC what were some of the things? I'm a huge fan of Mega man and i love the story. So I'm asking genuinely
@@BigBlack20 if I'm not mistaken X7 & X8 happened in different timeline. In the end of X6 Zero went into slumber and he either awakened in X7 or Megaman Zero, but both doesn't really matter since it will end up in Legends series anyway
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).
Mega Man is such a legendary gaming franchise.
Reploid revo: *yawn it's about time*
Debunking time
@Lambda the No Commentary Gamer hey at least he's not "OwO".
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~
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.
Wily being serges in x2, and isoc in x6 is just fan theories.
@@benjaminberkey2920 Yes, Isoc I'd more of a theory based of some random tidbits, but the Japanease dialog of X2 heavily implies Serge is Wily.
Wily is exactly 0% Weil
Nailed it! Original MM, X , Zero & Legends Series are my all time favorites. I love the X & Legends storylines. They weren't complete.
i need to know how what happened to zero and x. like. im literally disgustingly sad over it
This game defines the word 'Madness' and also teaches us to be contempt with what you have and achieved and not be greedy
Some robotics place caused centuries of war, and the death of all humans because they didn't let Willy use the double gear system.
Ikr lol
Imagine if zero was built with the double gear system
I know the timeline forward and backwards, but I never get tired of it. Great vid, CAPCOM will always be my favorite!
20:31
Ah heck yeah!
Megaman BN/SF timeline series!
Yes
YES

@JadianRadiator you are subscribed to captainsauce.

Hope they cover the more obscure partsof the Battle Network lore too whenever they go into it.
Fun fact: yesterday I was re watching the megaman trailer for smash wich is _W I L D_
That trailer was the only one to make me burst into nostalgia tears. So frikkin epic!
Megaman is woefully underrated in smash.
So glad you slipped in "Wiwy" a couple times
Dang Megaman X gets dark fast
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.
Megaman Legends will be forever in my heart.
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…!
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
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!
Well thought out and presented. Gotta go find my old Megaman collectables now!
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.
Ismael Cortez There is no split X timeline. The ending in X6 is said to take place at the end of the X series (which means it takes place after X7 and X8). The video already stated that Command Mission is not canon even if the Zero ending caused a split. The only reason why the Zero series has somewhat of a loose continuity with the X series was due to the devs of the Zero series were essentially forbidden from interacting with the team that was working on the X series at the time for story reasons.
Well actually neo Arcadia tower is the orbital elevator from X8 so no the time split is not from X6.
Command mission occurs in an alternate timeline after X7, X8 is the canon time line that continues to Zero series
@@AxlChannel0503 Maybe but remember that the Zero saga doesn't have an official date, so the game X Command Mission could have happened perfectly, time after the Elf Wars and 100 years after the Zero saga.
BURAIAN Z nope, also Rockman X dive oficially said that CM is an "Alternate Time line"
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
If it makes you feel any better, X's soul went off to Cyberspace after Zero 3, and then he was literally put inside Model X. So X is alive, just in a new body
@@sheetinthestreet5903 It's not actually X is Soul that is Put into Model X tho so X is Still Dead
@@SpultoBNMTheMutuallyUnrequited Yes it is X's soul. Prarie outright states that a Biometal contains the consciousness of the person it's based on. Model X is X. Model Z is Zero. Model L is Leviathan, and so on.
@@sheetinthestreet5903 it still doesn't mean that they he is x, it's just a fragment of his soul
@@envy8699
Well, the X in MMZ is also just a fragment of X's soul, as it has been split off into 5 parts, the other 4 becoming the Four Guardians.
Need Megaman Legends remake.
Didnt realize megaman legends was connected to the original series. I loved 1 and 2
'Rockman and Roll from Rock and Roll' did blew my mind.
Very well done Marcus. Thank you for this rundown! 🙏🏾
This is what ive been waiting for. Seeing this in my recommended was the best thing ever

In X5 that was Dr.Light's Hologram, you said Caine.
give me that juicy star force and network timeline video I love those games
If this vid does well and you show you guys want it, we can make it happen.
Oh I have been waiting SOOOOOOOO long for a mega man timeline thank you for doing this
Hope you enjoy it!
The Leaderboard I really did. Mega man is one of my favourite gaming franchises and when I saw the family tree video I was really hyped for this video
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.
Megaman Zero is my personal favorite series. Zero finally found what he was fighting for
BELIEVE IN ME..........CIEL!!!!!!!!!!
what he was fighting foooooooooooooor
Please would love to see a complete timeline of the Megaman.EXE and Starforce series.
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.
*Cain's* hologram fixes up X.
That's an odd way to spell Dr. Light.
I didn't even know Legends had anything to do with the main timeline. I thought it was a stand alone series.
lol
Weirdly, in one interview Keiji Inafune (the man who used to be in charge of the Mega Man franchise despite not actually being its creator, but its first artist) stated that the Legends series was in a separate continuity. Despite this, Inticreates (the company that made the Zero and ZX games) decided to craft the storyline of their games with the idea that everything that happens leads to the events of Mega Man Legends (you can read this for yourself in the interview included in the back of the book Mega Man Zero Official Complete Works).
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

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.
Yeah. It still doesn't make any sense how Mega Man X and Zero became best friends.
Yes! Finally I've been waiting 4-5 months for this!!!
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.
It's never confirmed what happened to the classic characters but a lot of people say because of Wily using robots to try to take over the world the humans banned all robots like megaman and scraped all of them.
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 !
You can play as Zero on X3 except for Mini and Boss fights.
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).
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)
i'm a huge megaman fan . i learned a good deal of things i did not know from this. great timeline vid.
And literally yesterday I was talking about the whole timeline lol
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.
I have a funny story: I played Megaman X in Japanese first without knowing anything about the franchise or lore, so when I first came across the original Megaman series in English, I thought it’s a crappy American bootleg of X-series

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 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
I would still like a whole game series of that megaman x command mission style game would be awesome or a megaman universe combined command mission style even if it's non cannon I really missed the whole command mission style

So all of this started with two guys and a robot.
Two guys and 6 actually
@Hannah Linstead That's the robot I'm talking about.
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.
Very good! I never knew that storyline. Dr Wiley releasing the virus in the future.. wow
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..
