Originally, we were under the impression that the game would be titled Mega Man: Rebirth, but apparently that is not the case any longer. In his second game on Nintendo's dual-screen beauty, Mega Man will be battling foes during the time period immediately following the latest Battle Network game on the GBA. Unlike its predecessor, we are given a new protagonist in Subaru as the devs have decided to toss old favorite Lan and his Netnavi to the curb.This time around, there is no Netnavi and instead Subaru must rely on his FM called Warlock. The FM is a sort of sentient lifeform living in radio waves, and upon fusing with Subaru, they combined create Mega Man. Simple enough, right?
The meeting of these two is a rather tragic one, as three years following the passing of his father, Subaru has become a recluse. He never leaves his house, despite the repeated attempts of friends, and has chosen a life of anti-socialism. One night, while quietly gazing at the stars with one of his father's inventions, he stumbles upon Warlock. Of course the two chat, later decide to have dinner, and well ... little Timmy, that's how you were born!
OK, we're kidding about that last part (Timmy, you're actually a clone!), but the rest is true, we swear!

THIRD DS game, actually.
The first was MegaMan Battle Network 5: Double Team DS, which was the two GBA MMBN5 games put together, with several extras, too.
The second was Mega Man ZX, an sequel-series to the Megaman Zero series.
And, no offense, but this is quite old. I think I submitted a link to it a while back when the English name was revealed.

He's committed to a life of anti-socialism?
How Ayn Rand of him.
