I wouldn't mind seeing Minecraft Man X become a series, it's amazingly accurate for that engine, but I'll always wonder what the Mega Man: Maverick Hunter X series would've done. I like some of this thread's speculation, but it's missing the extras. MHX1 added an unlockable OVA and playable character. What would they have added to the other MHX games? It'd be ridiculous if ALL of them had Vile mode.
I also think Inafune would've tried to get X2&3 remade simultaneously to ensure that Cain is fully replaced.
>OVAs
X2 OVA would have to be about the months between X1&2. Inafune clearly wanted to kill Dr. Cain off (Capcom's like "lol he got better" after MHX1 failed) so it would have to introduce his replacement, whoever it is. Iris is okay..but what about Dr. Doppler? They were already "colleagues" in the manga, and it makes him a bigger target for the next game. Save Iris for next time, Cain didn't do much in X3 anyway.
X3 OVA, I dunno, more about the rise and fall of the DoppleTown utopia.
X4 OVA could be about Sky Lagoon, like why the hell was there a floating city above a grounded city, that was asking for trouble.
X5 OVA obviously more about Eurasia Colony.
X6 OVA, more about Gate and his ex, Alia.
X7 (lol) OVA, more on Axl and Red.
>Character modes
X2: Black Zero. Maybe he's not just Sigma's contingency plan, but Serges as well. Real Zero never realized that Serges was involved. Final boss: upgrade X. Then Zero destroys him as how that scenario actually plays out.
X3: Bit & Byte mode so you can swap between them like X & Zero.
X4: The what-if pre-split Irisnel.
X5: Dynamo. Especially if Vile robs him of his og place in the main story, would be fun.
X6: HI-MAX?
X7: Red. Maybe we can show him surviving too.

Bonus chapter still alludes to events up to X8 still happening tho.

Powered Up was also great and should've continued. Universe was going to be PU2 in spirit...and Time/Oil appear in some mobile spinoff so I spose they're 'canon'.

Because iris and Colonel were originally one robot that was too powerful to contain in one body or something so they were split into two, which is how they're brother and sister. That part isn't a retcon, that part comes from design documents made during X4. The retcon comes from them getting opposing viewpoints as a result of the splitting and Iris tried to kill Zero because she literally went insane without her other half existing, so she tried to imperfectly re-merge with her brother's core (the purple orb she's holding) and dies from the rider armor it created exploding around her.

Pic related was their original form.
