The powers that Gamer gets usually are very obvious and the main power of the charactor he links with. That said, why the slide? Common people would more normally accosiate the buster with Megaman.
Is it because the gun feature of the Game Station had been taken up by the Super Scope? If so, how was it decided (in the story) that he should get the Mega Slide?
That is a good question, and I'm glad it was brought up.
The thing is that I wanted to specifically avoid having each Game Card just be a weapon that pops into existence to grab and use. Though it's something specific to the character, the point of a "link" is the character lending their power to the user.
Though arguably the Mega Buster is the closest to Mega Man's trademark, I felt that it was too easy to see coming. The same thing could be said about the Mario Jump and Sonic Run, but those are abilities that gamers have grown up with always wanted since they were little, so there's a little bit of exhileration in seeing someone allegedly normal taking on those abilities. The Mega Buster, I felt, a little less so.
... And at the very least, I wanted the early Game Cards to be movement-based. My preference. _________________
More movement based "weapons" make battles more interestingly strategic than having a bunch of different weapons to be used on specific bosses, I suppose <.<

Yeah, but the movement-based Gamer cards have got to stop sometime, for example, it'd be tough to make on for Link since as far as I know, he has no special movement patterns.
Note: Shouldn't there be a Game Card thread or somthing where this can go? _________________ Apparantly, I'm like, off the vilg RESERVATION. Whatever that means.
He's got dashing, jumping, sliding...gun, sword, shield. I think he's due a more hand-to-hand ability. DK Strength is one thing, but a Shouryuken is a Shouryuken.
