Mega Man 10: Farewell to Ballade

[Pitupasa]

Esta esta demasiado triste no creen?

[MagnusTheta]

I love this song, but God, it sounds so depressing. Can that even be a thing with 8-bit?

[mooglemaster17]

2 people lost to Ballade

[somedudeatwalmart]

Ballade:

Good Points: Specialist at Setting Traps

Bad Points: Only Able to Fight at the Ground

Likes: Mirrors

Dislikes: Aerial Attacks

[Epicfail90001]

oxymoron

[Flareon8877]

this song makes me so sad. Ballade was my favorite megaman killer. R.I.P Ballade, your legacy lives on.

[THELASTREDMAGE]

Farewell to good capcom.

[TheCajunGambit1]

Megaman 11 should set up the events for Mega Man X and who knows maybe we'll get to fight Zero? Since hes created by Dr. Wily and he was evil before he was good.

[andoc]

@TheCajunGambit1 I seem to remember reading somewhere Inafune said Zero didn't cause the end of the Classic series, which makes me wonder what the hell happened if Zero didn't do it.

That said, killer tune, I like it a lot.

[TheCajunGambit1]

@andoc Yea I also just read something that I dont know how true it is Dr. Wily did not use Zero in the classic series because Zero wouldn't obey Dr. Wily kind of like how Bass didn't so he shut down Zero in that capsule for years until the X series began where some reploids activated him. My only guess is Dr. Wily created the Maverick virus with using the evil energy from Mega Man 8 and mixing it with something he created destroying everyone.

[rockmusscarcella]

FUCK! i'm having a eargasm!

MegaMan 10 have such a wonderful tunes!

[kjnjkmjk1]

Ballade's theme is great!

[MrN30N1X]

0:47-0:48 IS THAT PART OF SKRILLEX I HEAR??!

[TheBoomerKuwanger]

ALL ROBOTS! PLEASE PRAY TO BALLADE!

[UltimaShadow7]

This song better be played at my funeral!

[TheBoomerKuwanger]

@UltimaShadow7

I agree. :(

[NightmareZerogbs]

@UltimaShadow7 sir, you have a new friend :)

[QuartrGuy]

To adapt a quote from joshscorcher...

"WHY DID WE HAVE TO KILL BALLADE!?"

[drummr1313]

Ballade:cattle man

[ianong528]

Hey, you can hear some parts of the original song in here! :D

[drummr1313]

@ianong528 Yeah, so can I.

[luteus77]

Mega Man: Ballade! Why do you want to fight me? You saved me in the past!

Ballade: That's a mistake I intend to correct right now!

[ShikiMSHTS]

I do indeed like this a lot more than the original. Has much more complexity and moodiness to it~

[b03li]

good bye megaman 8bit

[alexdz123321]

68 BALLADE

As he believes that he is the strongest robot, he can't help fighting

robots who look strong.

"You are merely the number two!"

Good Point: Challenging spirit

Bad Point: Stupid

Like: Being number one

Dislike: Disappointing foe

[DarkWolf733]

@alexdz123321 He's like Bass, only Bass is better coloured, and Ballade is More Awesome

[locustplumber]

I hear this track's overdramatic melody over that of the original Ballade theme, and all I can think is how the original one was so much better.

It's still a good theme, but the original is better.

[Nault11]

Dear Capcom Staff,

To whoever made this 8 bit track. THIS is the most amazing song i have ever heard in the entire mega man series! Whoever made the track, Give him the biggest raise in salary you can imagine! and thank you for brining the Mega Man Killers!. Ballade is the best robot master ever! (next to Protoman :P)

[MastermewtwoALPHA]

Ballade is probably my favorite Mega Man Killer. In fact, I even made a voice demo of him. I love this theme, too.

[Alyssa7991000]

GOODBYE BALLADE WE WILL MISS YOU........

[XgrimXrockerX]

wait I JUST SAW HOW HE LOOKS JUST LIKE DYNAMO.

it kinda makes sense, "megaman killers" werent built by willy were they? the same thing with sigma and dynamo, and his color pattern is similas and both of them have those weird shoulderpart.

maybe dynamo is a rebuilt version of ballade?

[MariosNintendoWorld]

How the heck did ballade survive that explosion in the wily ship? Well this means ballade is stronger than bass.

[mundi444]

@MariosNintendoWorld c'mon bass is just a jerk and stupid in comparation to ballade, ballade has just a very cool fighting spirit and an awesome fighting theme

[MariosNintendoWorld]

@mundi444 Yeah... Ballade made Bass look like a joke. Ballade has been more awesome science Mega Man 4.

[BotiBalint]

this song should've called Ballad of Ballade

[DoomThroughDoom]

Megaman: >:(

Protoman: 8)

[nathan7031]

@DoomThroughDoom Protoman takes more damge you know

[herroalex]

@DoomThroughDoom and Bass >:|

[shopohume]

@DoomThroughDoom and bass?...

[IRGEMINIMAN]

@DoomThroughDoom Fixed Protoman: B)

[ADOLFO6500]

You Get:Best theme in the Game

[Dskaattinen]

Mene pois

[A1D64FVIK7]

0:28 I Heard the GB series Ballade's Theme 0.0

[Maetch01]

This is the music that should've been used in Wily's Skull Destroyer in MMIVGB. It's just more fitting for a space-based assault.

[Angsc09]

@Maetch01

Correct, every time when somebody play this stage probably were be saying "Wily Space Fortress here we go again."

[IMCRYSTALMAN]

balalalalade!

[crapheadandidiot]

0:59

Another fight is just what I need!

So let's go!

And I know that even though I have died in the past,

there is just no way, just no way for me to lose. (Never lose!)

Loop at your leisure. ^_^

[crapheadandidiot]

0:00 I can't die. I won't die. I can't die. You will die! Back again to defeat you, I will always be number one! There is no way that I can looooose! If you think you can win, I'll have to remind you just who I am. I'm Ballad and I never looooooose! (Never lose!) So come on! So come on! Let us fight again! I assure you, I won't die, not this time I know! I will fight again, if I must. I will win again, if I must. Anything, if it takes you to the scrap heap. So let's go! So let's go!

[TheTeacher1960]

You know, Ballade always gives me the thought that Wily isn't completely evil.

[CrossedCelt]

@TheTeacher1960

No accounting for deviation in a sapient robot. Ballade is programmed to kill Mega Man, and probably just decided it was an exercise in futility.

[Aquamaryann]

I liked Ballade best ^^ who built him again? Wily or Light?

[daijimin]

@Aquamaryann Wily

[Aquamaryann]

@daijimin Wily is a fucking genius XD - take alone the BGMs he composed for his dungeons *LOL*

[IAMTHEPUMPMAN]

@Aquamaryann It takes a huge budget haven't you seen The Last Days Of Dr. Wily - OLD RICH PEOPLE

[Aquamaryann]

@IAMTHEPUMPMAN

In fact I have, I have... ^^; Wily just isn't the marketing kind of person... not good with finances.

[JojengaLPer]

Quick Man and Napalm Man: FU...SION...HOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[Angsc09]

@JojengaLPer

Napalm Man + Quick Man + Magnet Man = Ballade.

[MattiasOhlund]

good song, but I think it could have some adjustments...

[kyubihanyou]

"All the times I've risked my life.

Multiple times I've sacrificed..."

[SarothCyngus]

@kyubihanyou Say what?

[Angsc09]

@SarothCyngus

Beside this theme is the saddest of all time. Wait to see in Sunstar that is also probably one of the only Robot that have the heart to think that human are not all so bad.

[Angsc09]

Stardroids Return in Mega Man 11 anyone ?

[SarothCyngus]

@Angsc09 Yes.

[MegaYeyoX]

@Angsc09 Possible... =/

[QuartrGuy]

@Angsc09 I'd say the Genesis Unit is more likely. There are 8 Stardroids, 9 if you count Terra, and that is a lot of extra stages. There wouldn't be enough room on the weapon screen.

[FighterO21]

@QuartrGuy

Sure there would be, just have to make those names and ammo bars slightly more squished together.

[ZioIsPwnzor]

@QuartrGuy

Yes, Anything to see my man Mega Water.S again.

[ZblueboltZ]

@ZioIsPwnzor Mega water is like Ballade's opposite - apparently he's intelligent but lacks the confidence that Ballade has.

[starrodkirby1]

@Angsc09 F YES

[yeahshorts]

Awesome battle in the DLC. The end of his stage is TOUGH though!

[theADDKIDD88]

Now the question is will they bother to bring back Quint? And why bring the Mega Man killers back as most people may not have any idea who they are.

[NoNameAtAll11]

@theADDKIDD88

For those who DO know who they are.

And I doubt it. Inafune hates MMII GB's very existence and thus, Quint. Disregarding his appearance in MMV GB.

[theADDKIDD88]

@NoNameAtAll11 True.

[shalpp]

Quint wasn't a Rockman Killer.

[theADDKIDD88]

@shalpp Also true.

[Angsc09]

R.I.P to Ballade Mega Man were never forget your honer after you save him.

[ManuelDR1969]

WHERE ARE HIS SHADES!!!?

[theADDKIDD88]

And Ballade is back too?!? SWEET!

[theADDKIDD88]

@Angsc09 Wait, what?

[Angsc09]

@theADDKIDD88

I mean I say you won't play the Special Stage to fight them until the end of April which is kinda sucks.

[theADDKIDD88]

@Angsc09 Ah... Well in that case, I know! That's for the Wii owners, right? Cuz I have Mega Man 10 on the PS3 and I have no idea when the DLC is coming out on PSN.

[Angsc09]

@theADDKIDD88

Yeah, even I don't have Wii I can feel it if I play it so it get so frustration. Howeverm it still quiet fun.

The Ballade of this theme is very sad as he is the only one who have the heart to think.

[IAMDARKWOMAN]

Wait, If ballade saved mega, why is he fighting him now?

[snowyarticuno]

Special Stages probably don't have any sort of continuity going on.

Alternatively: Wily made a clone of him. Again.

Frankly I'm surprised they didn't bring back Quint again. Maybe they could have made him not dumb!

[Angsc09]

@snowyarticuno

Hopefully, can fight those stardroids in next upcoming Mega Man 11 or 12.

[Angsc09]

@snowyarticuno

Oh, I forgot that another Stardroid which have the heart to think even he is make for destruction his name is Sun Star after his defeat that Mega Man ask him to repair but refused that the Robot are fighting human as Mega Man Respond very strongly is not and explain to him that he fight for peace not for destruction So I really wish that he were return from the Special Stage or at least he introduce fan-make Mega Man or whatever.

[DefenderDT]

I honestly don't think the Stardroids will be coming back.

Mostly because Wily didn't build them. He pretty much just hit an On switch with them. Would be cool to fight them ^_^ They're in the newest Rockman Gigamix, so who knows?

[DefenderDT]

Hey now,

Quint was pretty bad-ass in Rockman and Forte - Mirai no Chousenjo no something something something. =P

And You're right ^_^ Continuity errors. But honestly? They never said if Ballade made it out of the ship or not! I mean it's entirely possible he pulled off a Bass, no?

Also the Sakugarne may be one of the best MM weapons ever, so hush about Quint being incompetent =P

[Angsc09]

@DefenderDT

Quint, It is Mega Man from Future a lot of people think after seeing him and knew the truth were been very sad since Dr Wily stole time machine to go to future and kidnapped him reprogram him like that all he does give him a Pango Stick to destroy Mega Man What the hell Capcom thinking of that time ?

[MysteryAC]

@Angsc09

GRAMMER YOU IDIOT. DO YOU USE IT?

:(

[skawt24]

@MysteryAC Grammar*

[MysteryAC]

@skawt24

Oh, the cruel irony.

*smacks self*

[skawt24]

@MysteryAC It's a common mistake yet, it's a fairly facepalm worthy one.

(P.S this song is awesome)

[Angsc09]

@IAMDARKWOMAN

The Only Robot have the heart think that is wrong to been evil other none.

[lhatecards]

@IAMDARKWOMAN Well, Wily probably reprogrammed him.

[Michaeldragon800]

@IAMDARKWOMAN

Perhaps Wily erased his memory about saving Mega Man while being revived.

[NoNameAtAll11]

Wily could have erased his memories. Either that, or he pulled a Bass, in the sense that he wants to fight Mega Man on his own terms. Not to prove he's the strongest. Merely for sport.

[theADDKIDD88]

@IAMDARKWOMAN Wily did rebuild Ballade, so he obviously reprogrammed him as well.

[AngelBoy90001]

@IAMDARKWOMAN it's probably not the same ballade from the GB game seeing how wily has hundreds of ballades in his castle same with enker and punk

[SirMelonHead]

@IAMDARKWOMAN Robeinza? Or however you spell it. Or Wily just recreated him and reprogrammed him.

[skawt24]

@IAMDARKWOMAN You gotta remember that download content isn't cannon.

[cooljobsrule]

@IAMDARKWOMAN Friendly competition?

[ShadTheCrazed]

@IAMDARKWOMAN

Roboenza.

[MrMK109]

@IAMDARKWOMAN Either Wily reprogrammed Ballade or he still wants to become number one.

[CrossedCelt]

@IAMDARKWOMAN

Robot. Can be programmed. It might not even be the first iteration of Ballade. It's entirely possible it's a new conglomerate of programs in the robot that the original used.

[faustopego]

@IAMDARKWOMAN

Same question. I think we gotta play the game then... maybe Ballade is Zero in the old classics. LOL

...

No, it's not Protoman, for God's sake... It's not Ballade either!... ... T_T

[Kristanni20X6]

@IAMDARKWOMAN he's a Megaman Killer

[MonsterXfan]

@IAMDARKWOMAN Maybe wily brainwashed him and made him evil again. That or his AI was remade

[evildevil22442]

@IAMDARKWOMAN Roboenza?

[XgrimXrockerX]

willy brainwashed him ?

[MrCrazyToad]

@IAMDARKWOMAN I dunno. Maybe after Dr. Wily saw Balllade do that, he quickly removed whatever made him help Megaman.

[SuperSketch008]

@MrCrazyToad Or he could be a copy, like in Mega Man V.

[MrDigitalgamer12345]

@IAMDARKWOMAN i think i can explain after the infection of robozemia he went from being megamans friend to his enemy, poor guy him and mega might have made good friends if not for the virius.

[mafiamamemonIII]

@MrDigitalgamer12345 Actually his appearnce in mm10 is only a cameo-meaning he is not the official storyline

[darksamusfreak89]

@MrDigitalgamer12345 but didnt he KILL HIMSELF at the end of megaman IV?

[ManuelDR1969]

awesome pic

thx bean

[Bean1227]

That's the advantage of waiting a bit. You get to upload some neat artwork as a result.

[Fullmetalfanboy]

if only the special stages would keep the original battle themes from Rockman World in them. This is a really cool remix for Ballade but I LOVED his battle theme in Rockman World IV

[GenesisSanctuary]

This song actually sounds kind of sad. I guess it makes sense, considering Ballade sacrificed himself to save Mega Man in the past.

[TheBoomerKuwanger]

@GenesisSanctuary

On my birthday, I jumped off of a cliff to honor Ballade because of his bravery. I hope Ballade will not die again. And I will care and care until I go to robot heaven. :'(
