Spak-Spang how could you . . . I thought you were cool . . .

How can you have Mega Man X? MMX1 was awesome and the story premise was actually quite cool . . . but later Capcom did sh*t all over the series but the first couple of games were quite good.
Because Mega Man X was Capcom just trying to hip up/revision/make cool for a new generation a classic and timeless character. Instead of just using teh same characters and pushing to innovate the series with the timeless characters we loved.
They modernized him...took all the personality out of the character, and made him this character that kids will look at and say COOL.
But there was nothing added to the game they couldn't have done with regular Mega Man, they didn't even teach him to shoot Up. It was completely and utterly stupid.
And guess what, they have been doing it over and over again, with each new generation of gamers, and now look where Mega Man is, and how insanely stupid his design has gotten...and just keeps getting worse.
Why not Bring Back Old Mega Man, and if you want to keep some of the animal themed bosses cool, but perhaps maybe you should keep some of the classic bosses too...they may be cheesy, but there is something uniquely special about them.
I just really hate modernizing characters for no reason. I sucked when it happened to Mega Man, Winnie the Pooh, Looney Toons (Lunatics Unleashed), Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Original Comic to Archie Comic to Ninja Turtles Fast Forward) JI Joe, He-Man, The first season of The Batman on WB which took all of the supporting cast of Batman away...need I go on. Of course not.
