we probably got tron because her moveset is not even remotely similar to mega man's but mega man's is similar to arthur's and even though it's SIMILAR it's not THE SAME so they went with the newer guy (arthur) instead of mega man?? tbh if i had to choose only one i'd choose arthur
the majority of the time when I'm thinking and talking about fighting game characters I'm thinking in terms of movesets and mechanics so maybe that's why i seem to be one of the only ones without their panties in a bunch about a lack of mega man (this is coming from a fan of the mega man games, too!!)
it'd be kind of neat if they could put in X, since we haven't seen him yet, but if they can't come up with cool and unique moves for him then I'd understand
edit: also here's some info from the ask capcom sesson with chris svensson:
• Gene from God Hand was in very close consideration for UMvC3's roster. They had more characters in the final pool than they could put in the game, and Gene happened to be in that category. Mega Man was in the final pool of characters too.
maybe if they make dlc for this game they'll add mega man in (hopefully they do gene first!!!), i imagine if they make character dlc they would start with "hmm, who did we originally want to do but ended up not doing"
