Admit it, we all were hoping to see Mega Man in Brawl. (well.. most of us) Of course we know that he was decided to not be put into the game. But honestly, why not? The guys over at Kotaku think they might have an idea of why Mega Man (or any other Capcom characters for that matter) were not put into the game!
With all the characters in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, there are a few that are missing. Where’s Mega-Man? That character certainly wouldn’t be out of place. Or what about Chun-Li or Ryu? The SNES controller was designed to suit the Street Fighter II port! Likewise, those characters would be right at home with the Smash Bros. Want to know why? Several insiders tell us that Nintendo was apparently still upset about GameCube exclusive Resident Evil 4 going multi-platform, and thus, decided not to include Capcom characters in Super Smash Bros. Brawl during development. However, with Capcom making a valiant effort at third part Wii developing with Zack & Wiki, do expect better relations between the two companies. Old wounds do heal — even when you are Nintendo! Heck, we wouldn’t be surprised if Capcom and Nintendo were ironing out a deal for the developer to make more Wii titles.
True or not, its something to think about.

I’ve heard this rumor before and I honestly don’t know what to think of it. I’d like to think that Nintendo is above that, but I still see merit in the story.
However, if it is true, it disappoints me that Nintendo is penalizing a company for producing an amazing game and making it multiplatform. I’d like to see them tackle all the shovel-ware titles we’re seeing on Wii before they go after companies making quality titles. =P
Com’ on, Megaman X must be in Super Smash Bros Brawl, why Sonic was already confirmed in Brawl, and with solid Snake, and Nintendo didn´t confirmed Megaman X to Brawl??????
Why not????????
I wont an answer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Haven beaten the game (mostly) I can promise you that there absolutely is no Megaman in Brawl. Though I agree it would be awesome for him to be included, sadly he will not. Maybe next time!
i wish there waz a megaman in brawl
