They buffed Meta Knight by 200% as a birthday gift
I'm not supposed to talk about Batman.

Black Shadow AT confirmed then.
Watching that Zenith Smash 64 stream. 64 continues to be ridiculous to me.
TECHNICALLY (and this is a big technically) Raiden's first appearance was on a nintendo console. MGS: Ghost Babel for the Gameboy has a VR Training mode, the end of which congratulates "Jack". This makes Raiden's first appearance on the gameboy.

The "Samus Symbol" was in super metroid.
Interesting! I wonder why they didn't switch it until after Melee then. Maybe it wasn't iconic enough until after Prime started using it? The color part really makes it clear that it's supposed to be Samus too. Maybe Sakurai thought it wouldn't show up again?
That's some game huh?
Holy shit, I replayed Super Metroid only a month ago and I still don't remember.The "Samus Symbol" was in super metroid.
I feel like shit.
Dunno
*shrug*
It's definitely the samus, and by proxy, the 'metroid' symbol for smash bros. If ridley's playable, It'll likely be his symbol, in the same way that bowser's symbol is the same as mario's.
What the hell is a "smash brother"?

Oh definitely. I think my favorite is how 3 of the 4 Fire Emblem characters have nothing to do with the logo. Either that or Mega Man.
Nah man, it's cool! It wasn't really worth me arguing about in the first place, that's my bad haha.

Both Marth and Lucina wield the Falchion, so it's really two.
Mega Man's icon is definitely odd, though.
Mega man could have been so much better ; _ ;
Has anyone found that icon used ANYWHERE in the mega man series?
Got a pic? I'm a pretty big classic MM fan and could probably identify it.

i mean i don't see why it would be the mega man series icon but... uh... there are indeed cogs in the series
not going for a silhouette of the helmet is odd (edit: oh duh or an e tank)

That's true. I guess you could also argue that they all use swords too.
Good luck.

It's definitely just a cog because he's a robot, and not because it has any particular meaning in the MM series.
But you know, aside from maybe the 1-Up icon (Mega Man's face) or an E-tank, I'm not really sure what would be the best representation for the series!

I like the cog :/
A helmet would be sweet. Like the Sonic head and pac head

Megaman's icon is pretty generic.

Actually, yeah that would be really awesome.
E Tank sounds great. But yeah, that's just a cog...because he's a robot.
I expected him to have the helmet as an icon if he ever got in.

If Sukapon gets in he should totally have the same icon as Mega Man. Heck, if Chibi-Robo gets in they should all share the generic cog. Because robots!
Whoever decided the cog was a good idea was clearly slacking. I keep hoping that it will change in the final release but there's basically zero chance of that at this point.
Gotta wait for Project M4 to change it to an appropriate icon I s'ppose.

I'm sure they tried to use the helmet as a symbol but the found the shape too complicated to fit the simplistic nature of the icons. At least to the point where simplifying it further lost iconability or even being recognizable.
Then again, even an E tank would have suffice.

It doesn't match the gears in that stage though. :/ It's close, but no cigar.
I've seen some good, simplified helmet designs for his logo and they definitely work. NO more complicated than what other people use.
Why? If homebrew ever comes about you could likely do it yourself like you can with Brawl. Project M
I think the helmet could easily work with a front-on view.
Hey wait a sec, the helmet looks like it has a blue exclamation mark... SNAKE CONFIRMED!1!
When we can have The Blue Marble as the Mother icon I can't imagine Mega Man's helmet would've been too complicated.
Either Capcom's rebooting the series secretly and using that as a logo (lol), or someone cheaped out on giving him an icon.

Icons they could have used for Mega Man that would have been better then the gear:
- A sideways helmet
- The classic 1-up or frontways helmet
- A silhouette of the classic Mega Man sprite
- An E-Tank
- The Yashichi
- A Life capsule
- A Weapon Energy capsule
- The text "Mega Man" in comic sans font

Mega Man logo, huh?
(but Light instead, obviously)
(but Light instead, obviously)
The E Tank would have no context as a series logo — it’s just a block with the letter E on it. The Donkey Kong and Metroid logos contain letters, but they actually stand for the characters they’re representing — “E” is for energy, and it’s just a generic health recovery item. It would be like representing the Pokémon series with a potion bottle.
The helmet could work, but none of the other suggestions are any better than the random cog, honestly.

That could represent Capcom as a company, but it didn't originate in Mega Man, so it'd be a really poor indicator of that series in particular.

...which is based on the famous photograph of Earth from space, The Blue Marble.
