Trigger's Brother?

Copy and pasted because I'm lazy.


Well, I was playing through Mega man legends 2 again today and I came across something rather interesting. I was in Barrel's room reading all of his little dairies and I came across this little passage.

Mega man's Discovery I
First look at the underlined part, "a small child, a baby, and a monkey. My first thought was I knew it. Mega man has a brother out there somewhere; Proto man, the mystery guy, or Capcom's cheap attempts to put the devil or this annoying little friendin the game.

Then another thought hit me, Where did the small child go? "So I decided to raise the baby along with my granddaughter." I have come to the conclusion of Barrel either killed him or the kid got away from him.

or CoA just messed up on translating again.

Well, it is kinda hard for it to be "that annoying little friend" considering the fact that X7 was made years AFTER Legends 2.

EDIT: Furthermore, if Rock DID have a brother in the Legends series, why wouldn't it be Blues? I mean, Rock and Roll are brother and sister in the Classic and Legends games, so why would Blues paralleling Proto Man in the Legends series be any different?

Thats for you to know and me to find out.
Maybe it was something to be unrevealed in the next game? And how is Dash and Roll Related? Dash's last name is Volnutt/Trigger while Roll's is Caskett.

Considering that Rock was adopted by Barrel and takes care of Roll as well, what else could you describe their relationship? And don't give me that "they are romantically in love" because that is merely fan speculation.

I think the problem here is that you guys are taking the words far too literally.

Do you think that perhaps maybe he was putting emphasis on how little the "small child" was? Just think of the inflections of these sentences:

"Look at him! He's a small child!"

"Look at him! He's a small child! A baby!"

Ever thought of that? :o

To put int absolutely blatant terms, the small child is reffering to Rock himself. He was raised alongside Roll, Barrel's grandaughter, who is in that series older. Mystery solved, since Rock himself declared that they grew up together in Barrel's care.

I should also just note, from my previous post, that you do not have to be related by blood to consider someone your brother/sister.

Well.. I seen it at a Chan site. The Nazi Zero that is. It looks like a Photoshopped Zero as is.

Oh come on, the theory was that Megaman had a missing brother because Barrel mentioned "a small child, a baby and monkey." I don't see how "n00b" that is.

Iga may be correct, but that would mean we're looking at the first poorly translated line in Megaman history, seeing as how it could be so easily misinterpreted. I mean, why couldn't he just say "a small child" and if he wanted to emphasis how small it was, he could have said "a tiny baby." They could have worded it a bunch of other ways that wouldn't make Megaman sound like two people.

Isn't it obvious? The only logical explanation on why Capcom translated the sentence as such is because... Megaman is his own brother.

*gasps*
