Really not that big of a deal...

Ah I see you added an extra bit to the OP. Still makes no sense to call them lazy over this though. Choosing the Smash picture over a non Smash picture takes the same effort as vice versa. They chose the Smash one cause it's the best one.

This is just lazy on Sony's part.

PlayStation has had Megaman games.  How do we know this is not the picture Capcom sent to Sony for use in the promotion?

I know they've had, but why didn't Sony get a pic from there?

Well, read the 2nd sentence.  How do we know CAPCOM didn't send them the same pic that they had for Smash Bros?  Sony doesn't own Megaman so they would've had to ask for permission in the 1st place.

Sony: Hey Capcom, want to send us a pic of Megaman for promo, blah, blah... Street Fighter rocks btw?
CAPCOM: Sure, there ya go and thanks for the moneyz!

Anyway, Smash Bros 4 re-make confirmed for Remake Station 4 .



My 8th gen collection

Capcom probably did that, then Sony got insulted and picked a random pic on the net.



Bet with Xander XT: 

I can beat more games on his 3DS than he can on my PSVita in a month. Loser has to buy the winner a game on his/her handheld Guess who won? http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=193531

Me!

Excuse sony for having characters that have been on the playstation platforman for over the last 20 years.


The version of characters does not really matter. If anything people need to stop whining and open up to the fact that sony is thr market leader and is showing people characters that they may not have ever seen.



Nobody's perfect. I aint nobody!!!

Killzone 2. its not a fps. it a FIRST PERSON WAR SIMULATOR!!!! ..The true PLAYSTATION 3 launch date and market dominations is SEP 1st

They also use the Wii model for Travis Touchdown not the PS3 one it seems



Lovely thread title

*Let me get this straight;

*This is your thread title:
"Sony uses Super Smash Bros. 4 art to celebrate 20 years of PlayStation."

When this is what its actually about:
"Megaman Art in Smash Bros used in anniversary picture of Sony"

I was thinking it was similar to Sunset Overdrives font fiasco last month but your thread title really knocks off that one. Worst of all is when people dont see the linked image they may end up assuming its the whole smash bros art (which is weird)

Whats most weird is you find them using a third party character art that was also on the PS platform lazy....
Wonders shall never end.....silly Sony :(

Let me know when a character model of a multi plat game modeled by Sony appears in Nintendo promo art.

Nintendo created that model and design. I mean this is the same Sony that used Zelda music at a PS3 launch event.
