Yeah how many times did Zero die before the series ended?

Once, maybe twice?

Why is it every time Mega Man is brought up this is always where it goes?

There's a REASON he's called Mega Man.

And occasionally Rock Man.

Pfft, human heroes come back from the grave all the time.

Also, the (first?) time he died, it looked disturbingly like he was cut in half and his spine and guts were spilling out.

That kind of weirded me out as a kid.


Edit: Or at least that's how it was in the X6 intro.

I like how in X6 and X7 they didn't even bother explaining his return. It's like it's just a forgone conclusion now (though to be fair, he didn't return from THE DEAD in X7 per se).

Robot St. Peter: Oh hey, Zero. Checking in or out?

Well, I assumed in X6 that it had something to do with the Zero Nightmare, like maybe some outside force or something Wily put in him had something to do with it. X had to fight him, after all, to fulfill his original programming. I didn't really play after that came up, though (X6 is not my favorite), so I have no idea what came as a result of the fight.

I thought X6 onwards wasn't part of the same timeline as the Zero series?

I'm pretty sure Capcom just keep making shit up as they go.

"Let's make Mega Man Zero a direct sequel to Mega Man X!"
"Alright, done. We're gonna make X7."
"But that'll fuck the continuity out of whack!"
"Is anyone really paying attention?"
"Probably not. Wanna go jerk off?"
"Sure."

In X6 it's stated that "he didn't die in X5 and had went into hiding to think and repair him self." As to why he "went into hiding" I forgot, I'll have to play through X6 again to find out when I get a chance to.
