So /v/, why is Battle Network so forgotten?

The original series is fondly remembered to the point that people gave $4,000,000 for a spiritual successor. The X series is also heralded as classic, praised endlessly by fans and critics alike. Even Legends, despite not having aged as gracefully (admit it, its controls are pretty clunky even by three-years-after-its release standards, and the 2D Mega Man games before it are far easier to pick up and play for the first time), almost got a new 8th gen installment with an absolutely massive fan outcry when it (and its kickstarter spiritual successor) got canned.

But despite being a commercial success, nobody outside of /v/ remembers Battle Network. You don't have any "critics" like Egoraptor or Bunnyhop make videos about it. You don't see it pop up on "top GBA games" lists like you see X or Legends for their systems, and definitely not for a lack of quality. You don't see anyone remark about how fucking fantastic and original its incredibly fun battle system was.

I'd love to see this series get acknowledged by anyone but it seems like it might only be remembered for being just another Mega Man spinoff series.

also i think the problem is the story. the story was pretty shit in all of them to begin with but the main problem is how old lan is. each game made him one year older. i'm pretty sure he was 9-10 in mmbn1 and 14-15 in mmbn6. they just couldn't keep going on with it like that. if anything we could hope for a spinoff or sequel with his son patch. mega man stays since hes a program. also as far as i know mmbn series is the only one with a definite ending. all other series are left somewhat open?

That's completely wrong.

BN1 starts with him being 11 years old in Grade 5.
BN2 takes place over Grade 5's summer break.
BN3 takes place at the end of Grade 5, with him graduating at the end and also has his birthday.
Then BN4, 5 and 6 takes place when he's in Grade 6, and again at the end of BN6 he graduates to middle school.

Personally, the music somehow is worse. And you kinda have to restart the game from the start to get the post game content.

Other than that is okay. Hell you can finally battle Roll, green Navis, and purple evil looking Navis.

Kidnapping, bombings, killing their failed operatives, genociding a country, the largest scale attack on SciLab in the series, organizing all the top Netbattlers in one meeting in an attempt to kill them in a castle full of death traps, crashing a plane...

These games were the shit, except for 4 which was boring. I don't think there is much to talk about. I think the one notable thing about it is that it's the one series that actually god trading card battle system in an ARPG right. I credit this to the battle grid allowing for cards to attack different angles and ways, rather than card systems where they'd just be attacks with different effects on a regular field.

I also remember the online fandom being pretty bad. My girlfriend was way too into the series at the time the games were coming out. I played all 6 games, but never really cared about any of those forums. She was a mod on one and I remember the two rockman.exe forums were pretty bitter towards each other even though they were the same fucking nerds on both boards.

BN has a dedicated fanbase that has dwindled out since there was no games. It's not as iconic as the original, yeah, but no Mega Man spinoffs are, not even X.

And even then it's just people fellating Mega Man 2.
So who gives a shit what public thinks? The franchise is dead anyway. WE remember. That's all that's important.

I liked them as a preteen, but the characters and story are definitely suited to their target audience. It's kinda hard to feel invested in this particular series as an adult when it's about a schoolboy and his toy robot program (that's his dead brother or something?

I wouldn't say it didn't age well, but that its audience leaves it behind.

Loved this series. 6 is probably my favourite and a nice finish to it. The Cross and Beast systems make the battles interesting. I'm also probably one of the few that enjoyed the liberation missions in 5. Also think while still good, 3 is massively overrated.

Also the Starforce games aren't that bad. Well, 2 is shit but 3 is good.

Zero was decent for what it was. It was stylish, very challenging and fast-paced but didn't really break new ground like Battle Network did.

BN is the far better series than Edgy Mega Man X due to being more novel, having significantly deeper gameplay with far more customization and replay value.

The lack of character knowledge was something that was hit or miss with throughout the whole series.
I think you're referring to Mr. Match, and that was one of the few characters they actually kept interaction up with throughout all of the games.

People seem to keep misinterpreting the OP.

It's not forgotten as in 'it needs another game', though that would be nice.

It's not forgotten in the sense that it didn't sell well for its time.

It's forgotten because it's generally remembered as a fad Mega Man for kids with an anime, and that it's not remembered for simply being a great series with great gameplay.
Look at the number of critical analysis or series retrospectives you can find online on Mega Man, X or Legends, but absolutely NONE for Battle Network.

Starforce 1 was an interesting new take but again its the start of something new, they had to build on it

SF3 though was when they fucking perfected it, it's honestly as good as BN3/2/6

The character development is great too (read:there's actually character development this time around) and the story is cool alium space shit with megaman basically being a power ranger that HENSHIN A GO GO's to fuse with an alium to become a futuristic version of a netnavi

It's really a shame, because aside from the Lego and Touhou knockoffs, BN has an absolutely incredible, complex, and unique battle system that became completely codified and fluid by BN3.

She is my waifu.

The Battle Network series taught me an important lesson about not judging things. When I first saw Battle Network I thought it looked stupid and I didn't want anything to do with it because it wasn't the Megaman I was used to. But then I played it on a whim and fucking loved it. Sometimes something you're dismissive of could end up being really good.

I remember a long time ago seeing a commercial for one of the BN games. However, I think it was BN4. I use to try and get people into the games a long time ago and I still have some friends who emulate it on their phones, but sadly trying to find someone who has the cartridges so we could netbattle seemed impossible.

I always struggled with finding enough mega chips to get past that damn gate in the secret area.

ChronoX's MEME system or whatever the fuck effectively has a freeze soul that looks pretty neat.
Though their Flashman form looks better.

I just can't get past a lot of ChronoX's shit. The mugshots are inconsistent, the music is gratey at times, the battlefield looks awful to me, and they changed the activation timing on a lot of the chips. If you've played enough BN, you know the exact delay from when you press A to when a Cannon actually shoots forward, making counters perfect. They changed the delay to pretty much nonexistent, and it fucks with me.

1 was a good intro. It was new, different, but you gave it a chance because it was new. Also Sonia Strumm/Harp Note. Holy shit, muh dick.

2 was the worst in the trilogy by far. Introduced 2edgy4me antagonist, and a generally unfun plot. Phantom was based though.

3 is easily the best. Can Wave Change where ever you want, graphics look better for some reason even though that doesn't make sense. Edgy antag is cool now. Character development. Rescuing Kelvin.

3 was the perfection of Star Force.
