Well... That video blew my brains out.

As for the Sonic/Megaman cross over... I've seen stranger things happen in the Sonic comics. But as a fan of Megaman series, I'm looking forward to it!

eggman chooses willy.

Hmm, I don't remember a Willy.

(Hint: "Willy" and "Wily" aren't even pronounced the same)

The whale, Kef. Willy is the whale.

Meh...I thought it was Dr. Willy for years. It wasn't until trying to find sprites on the internet did I realize it only had one l

The translations have been a little rocky, Willy, Wiley, Right, the Blues/Protoman/Breakman thing, they changed Megaman's name from Rock to Mega in the Megaman Powered up game... Hell, for the longest time I pronounced Bass as Bass... like the fish... and not the... music pun- The names are all over the place.

In MM8 they pronounce it like the Fish....you have ever right to be confused.

Going back on the video game connections, I was just researching the game “Namco X Capcom” and the upcoming “Project X Zone”. In them, it's revealed that many of their respective series take place on shared worlds with specific themes. They are...

• Martial World – Games which take place in a modern-day world very similar to ours (e.g. Street Fighter, Tekken, Resident Evil, ect.)
• Spirit World – Games which take place in the distant, long-forgotten past with mystical elements (e.g. Genpei Tōma Den, Soul Caliber, ect.)
• Future World – Games which take place in the distant future with science-fiction elements (e.g. Mega Man, Dig Dug, ect.)
• Illusion World – Games which are light-hearted, cartoonish, and take place on alternate worlds (e.g. Klonoa, Pac-Man, ect.)
• Demon World – The world where all inter-dimensional demons and monsters reside (e.g. Darkstalkers, Ghosts n' Goblins, ect.)
• Divine World – The world where all inter-dimensional gods, godesses, and spirits reside

If most video games are somehow connected, this probably complies with all other video game franchises. For example, “Double Dragon” could easily fit in the Martial World, “Okami” would most likely be the Spirit World, “Metroid” and “F-Zero” could probably take place in the Future World, and “Castlevania” is probably set in the Demon World. And series like “Super Mario Bros.”, “Kirby”, and “Banjo-Kazooie” could take place in the Illusion World; and “Kid Icarus”, “Bayonetta”, and “God of War” might exist in the Divine World.

Some franchises are a bit iffy though. “The Legend of Zelda” series is similar to the Spirit World, but takes place on a different world similar to the Illusion World. I also have no idea where the “Sonic” series would take place. Maybe the Distant Future perhaps?
