Ask Mega Man Volnutt

How'd you end up with a Netnavi with my name, anyway?

…That’s… honestly a good question.

I guess it’s a coincidence that they have the same name. I mean… Papa gave him to me with that name. It’s not his… real name, mind you, but hey.

Maybe MegaMan is more common of a name than we both realized.

Your dad named him? Think your dad’s a fan of Classic? Roll was a huge fan and insisted Gramps name me Mega Man when they found me. I still can’t believe Gramps actually listened to that one.

"…Classic? I have no idea what you’re talking about. But it’s kind of cool that MegaMan was named after someone… or… something I guess!

Oh, you’re so lucky your grandpa is still alive, I— wait, found you?”

#Lanheekari #Mega Man Battle Network #Gramps #Roll #being adopted #family #Nino Ruins #Sorry for pulling a disappearing act #Depression sucks

Yeah. My grandfather found me when I was a baby inside the Nino Ruins. I can safely say the last thing he was expecting was to find a baby in a dangerous place like that. Did I mention I was adopted? Guess it slipped my mind. As for Classic, where I'm from Mega Man is the name of a video game series. It has a bunch of spinoffs, like Zero and X and so forth, so Roll and I just call the original Mega Man games "Mega Man Classic." They're some of her favorites, but I'm not that much of a fan of them. It's this really hard platforming series on the original Nintendo. That Mega Man has a tumblr too. He's really nice so I kind of feel bad for not liking his games that much.

Crap. I think I'm stuck in a depressed slump. Again. I didn't even see it creeping up on me. One minute I was thinking how some anons can be really horrible and that I just didn't think I knew who to trust out on the internet, and the next it was like a month had passed and I don't even know where that month WENT. Sorry about dropping off the face of Tumblr for a while. Now there are people talking about Inafune making some kind of spiritual successor to my games and I think I feel like throwing up a little. I'm having a bunch of weird feelings right now and I don't like any of them. I know I said I'd be okay if they didn't get me out of here if it meant more people wouldn't have to get kicked around to the point of depression at their jobs, but actually facing the idea of never returning home as a real probability is scary, too. What if Capcom goes under and I get sold to EA? Or sold to some company that doesn't make games but just likes owning things they never use? I don't know what to think about anything. Why can't we all just win and have everyone be happy? I know I probably need something right now but I don't know what I need anymore. Besides, well, none of this ever happening in the first place. Which can't actually happen. Maybe it's just all really bad timing with everything. Sorry if I made your day less nice. I had to get this out somewhere. Last time this happened I was out of commission for a year. I don't want to leave you guys for a year, but you probably don't want to hear about how lousy I feel either.

Yuna and Sera are lucky they're less human than me. They have no idea what they're missing.

Nah, I'll pass. It still wouldn't feel right. It'd feel more like I was giving up on ever seeing her in person again, you know?

Besides, there are thousands of other games I can play in the meantime! :-)

#Zelda is my life right now #Maybe I'll pick up the new Pokemon too #I'm not giving up on getting back #And even if I don't it's just Smash Bros

So how's was you and classic Megaman doing? :3

Looking at Classic's tumblr he seems to be doing great! He's friendly, you should talk to him sometime if you haven't. askmegaman.tumblr.com is where you'll find him.I've seen better days but I'm hanging in there. Sometimes if I have a bad day or two it drags out longer than you'd think because this place is kind of depressing. I'll probably play some video games tonight. Zelda's pretty fun.

Volnutt are you planning to get SSB4 and return back to earth to play with Roll and Data?

Nope. I actually don’t like playing Smash Bros. up here. Roll and I used to play the original together back when I was home and it was kind of a special thing, so I don’t feel right playing it without her there next to me. Roll tells me she’s definitely picking it up. I hope she gets it on launch day. I’d like to think she picks them up partly so it’ll be there for me as soon as I get back, but I know she’s excited about Classic Mega Man being in there too!

One of our readers, OKeijiDragon, conducted an interview with composer Makoto Tomozawa via Twitter last year. The interview was posted on Dash Republic (now defunct), and later his Tumblr account. The interview wasn’t getting much attention, so he was kind enough to send it to us. You can check out some highlights from the now re-edited and expanded interview after the cut.

No fair, Terra advantage!

jumpyanon replied to your photoset: Isn’t that obvious!? [gif source]

Whoa! Awesome! You’ve got great skills!

"Well duh! I bet I can skate better than that Volnutt. Even without Jet Skates. …

…

His friend, Roll… she’s not mad at me for calling her mean I hope.”

#I think I pulled off skating and shooting only once #It was in Calbania #I need to start practicing again #I'll show that kid who's boss!#((He doesn't realize they don't live in the same era))

Heeeey! I know for sure I'd be better than you if I weren't stuck here! This place makes for a really terrible skate park! It's not like I can skate and shoot at the same time!

i will promise that i will not break the rule anymore

I always had a rule page up (http://askvolnutt.tumblr.com/faq) and I don't think you broke any rules, Joshua. I don't have very many of them. They're just "Nobody but the person who owns the Megaman Legends IP can reunite me with my friends and family" and...actually, that's it.

Everything else is okay for anyone to do. Just remember that I have feelings and opinions too, just like you. Stuff people says can change how I feel about things, and if someone says something mean or doesn't listen to me if I tell them something important then I'll react like you'd expect anyone to. Ever like something and then have someone else talk about it all the time to you until you get sick of it? That happens to me too. I guess the best way to understand me is to just read my tumblr and that will tell you what's going on in my life. Usually it's nothing. Sometimes it's not. But things change all the time. If you're talking about asking me about Nintendo characters I have never met, then you don't need to worry, that's not a rule. I'm just right now tired of talking about Nintendo characters I have never met. Really though it's just because I kept getting asks about them over and over and over from what I know now is the same person. Maybe in a month or two I'll feel like talking about them again, who knows? I know I don't feel like the same person who got in that spaceship thinking I was just going to Elysium for a few hours to beat Sera and then come home in time for dinner, that's for sure, and it would be crazy to think I'm exactly the same as I was back then. If this experience of being stuck here did not change me at all, then I would think there is something wrong with me!I don't think I will ever like hearing that someone killed my friends though. But then again who would ever want to hear that in the first place?

"Hey there, mate. I'm Scaredy Rat, I'm just A wandering rat looking for some food, have any..??" He said while his belly growls

Oh, uh, sure. Sorry if I look a little scared myself. I’ve had some problems with strangers lately. But I do like cooking and I was just about to make burgers, so sure, you can have one! I’ll teach you guys my recipe for stovetop burgers, too, and then you can make them whenever you want!You need:

1 pound of ground beef chuckAbout 2 tbsp worcestershire sauce1 medium-sized clove of pressed garlic1/4 cup parmasean cheeseOlive OilA panA bowlA spatula

Step 1: Mix all ingredients in the bowl using your hands. If you are wearing gloves take them off first. Step 2: Mold the mix into patties and put a dent in the middle with your thumb. When you cook burgers using meat with a lot of fat in it (which you should use to make it juicier) they shrink, so the dent in the middle will make the finished burger flat. Without the dent they end up rounded and that leaves less room for the fixin’s!I save the leaner packs of ground beef for things like tacos where the beef is cooked loose and the fat accidentally gets mixed in too much. Pour a little bit of olive oil (about 1/2 tsp because the beef will eventually start to drip fat and grease the pan that way) in the pan and fry up the burger! I use a gas stove and the middle setting works. It’s done in about 6-8 minutes. You can add whatever toppings or buns you want, or you could eat it plain. I like ketchup and mustard with cheese, on a potato roll! …I really hope you actually like burgers.
