I'm not a fan of Megaman but that's a real dick move

Especially when they've clearly put more effort into this design than they have into Decapre's face mask
 
...model kit.

April fools or not, great design, miles better then the lead for that kickstarter game
 
Kick them while they're down. Capcom's corporate philosophy.
 
First: Shit.

Now with that out of the way, you know the next time they make a Mega Man X game (inb4 lol never) that's more modern and not a revision of a classic or a reboot (think X9 and not MHX) they'll probably want to redo X's design.

Zero and Axl both feature an appropriate amount of visual flair and color. X's standard armor is way too simple nowadays. It fits him at first because he's the original Reploid, but I think to Capcom's credit they knew they should spice up X's design and decided to move forward in X8 and Command Mission.

To that end, this design is pretty good. It's a little over-done on the lines and lights, but the basic idea is great.

:lol

What the shit, I would actually buy this.

I would be really tempted to buy it too.

Yeah, it isn't a bad design. I would like to see the Command Mission energy scarf in a future X design, though. That was a cool addition.

The good news is that there is precedent for Capcom Unity April Fools Day fake products actually becoming real. There was a soundtrack CD some time back that was announced as an April Fools Joke, but re-appeared with more reasonable pricing details a few days later. So this might actually be a real product they are using to make a quick joke with first.

Indeed, I can't wait for the new Mega Man X
f2p iOS game!!!!!!!!
 
Great design would buy a game with MMX.. Capcom gonna capcom fuck em tho I better not get any trolls in regards to cvs3 or Karin cause I will lose it
 
Design isn't as good as CM's, however its still awesome and id have been all over it.

Capcom won't even get my hate since they lifted the Ver Ka box and design packaging.
 
The best/my favorite X design is an April Fools joke. Of course. I have to hand it to Capcpom, though: this is how you kick someone when they're down.
 
WTF Capcom!? How is this an April Fools joke? This is just cruel, announcing something people would actually like, kicking MegaMan fans while they are down.
What next Breath of Fire 6 is a proper console BoF game? Oh haha April fools, it's still a shitty mobile game.
