The Only Esport Played On Game Boy Advance - Mega Man Battle Network

Mega Man Battle Network is an iconic series from Capcom that combines classic RPG elements with a unique tactical combat system.

Despite not being designed with esports in mind, Mega Man Battle Network has withstood the test of time and even cultivated it’s own competitive grassroots community that’s going strong to this day.

This is the story of Mega Man Battle Network esports and the people behind it.

If capcom allows the online features in the legacy collection, it will probably make the esports even bigger than it is now.
Edit: they recently announced they are working on online battling and chip trading.

"Battles are meant to be more tactical to rather than reliant on reflexes or hand eye coordination."

Meanwhile the shot being played is of a player doing a very hard dodge that takes reflexes and coordination.

I wept for joy for the legacy collection announcement I loved this franchise and have been hoping and praying for a reboot I’m so happy they made the franchise

[leviyoung]

And now, with Legacy Collection looming around the corner in April with confirmed internet connectivity for NetBattles, this will be bigger and more accessible than ever. I can't wait!

lol

Pokemon was already an Esport in the game boy color era.

[frds_skce]

Guess what? We're probably gonna get this esport scene back, now that MMBN is on PC

[akiro]

Nobody talks about the originality that this is supposed to be a horror game, which makes me confused and wondering if thats what we get and what does it looks like

[Frankie]

Did Megaman Starforce's combat system have a PvP component, and if so, did it ever catch on?

[Noodle]

Wait so this game was made to be played using a Heart Monitor? on GBA?
Thats kinda awesome.

[Odinarcade]

So what your saying is ranked mode is gonna be sweaty and I have no chance? Lmao

[yvendous]

"It's game that was released for the Game Boy Advanced"

I'm sorry but I cannot like this minor speaking mistake slide.

[Rain]

I mean... Do you consider Pokemon not to be an "esport"?

[akilreid]

One of the most disrespected fighting games of all time, and probably the most wrongfully-hated Sonic game ever made. The game’s animation alone is ahead of its time (The expressions! the squash and stretch!) and captured the classic Sonic era in 3D better than anything that came afterwards.

[MorphBaller]

It’s game, boy, advance, not game boy advanced

[comedyclownsstudios]

Im sorry...W H A T?! MMBN was intended to be a horror game? Impossible. The ".EXE" anybody is thinking of is a creepypasta of a demon program of Sonic (A.K.A. Sonic.EXE). However, that was in the 2010s. But the MMBN series was made in the 2000s and no where does it say in the wiki that MMBN was intended to be a horror game.
