Forum:Canon?

Since some people have changed the status of a few of the games on here from "canon" to non-canon, I was going to bring that up with you...In the case of Rockman and Forte: Challenger From the Future, for example, the game was developed by Bandai, although it was officially licensed by Capcom (it is copyrighted by Capcom when you play the game). As such, I don't see any reason for it not to be considered canon unless Capcom itself doesn't support the game in their own official time-line?

The same should be said, I suppose, about Mega Man (PC) and Mega Man 3 (PC), both of which were developed by Hi-Tech Expressions in conjunction with Rozner Labs in 1990 and 1992 respectively. Although the games were not made in any part whatsoever by Capcom, they were licensed and copyrighted by Capcom (mainly, I suppose, because Hi-Tech and Rozner were using their material).

Shouldn't we consider these games canon?

If we don't, then we can't consider Rockman Strategy or Rockman Gold Empire canon either as the first was developed by Dreams Come True and the second was developed by Strawberry, both for the PC and only in China. They too were licensed by Capcom, though Capcom had very little to do with their production other than licensing out the right to use their characters. --Brahman 02:06, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
