    Yes… yes he does.

  2. Brad says:

    Who is Vile?

  3. Sandbullet says:

    Yeah i think i realized this within 5 minutes of playing the game back in 1993.

  4. OMG why says:

    This was intentional. I remember reading something a while back that a lot of things in MMX were based on Star Wars…look at Zero and his “Zero Sabre”…..

  5. Locke says:

    Because of course, Vile was never intentionally designed to copy Boba Fett…oh, wait…
    /me rolls his eyes.

  6. nobody says:

    Yup, intentional. In Japan, his name was even Vava (sounds like “Boba” to the Japanese ear).

    • Sir VG says:

      Good to see that somebody else besides me remembers this fact!

      • someone says:

        Granted, that much similarity is probably why they changed his name for the English release. Capcom isn’t the only Japanese gaming company to make references to Star Wars. The Final Fantasy franchise has a “Biggs” and “Wedge” that show up in multiple games.

        • Sir VG says:

          Doesn’t surprise me. That’s the same reason why the Street Fighter II bosses got all switched around. The fighter we know as Barlog is really M. Bison (Mike Bison) and it’s obviously a parody of Mike Tyson. Changed for the US releases for obvious reasons…

    • o-range says:

      The Japanese are not so retarded that “vava” sounds like “boba” to them, since they do have both the sounds “bo” and “ba” in their syllabary. If they named him “Vava” as an homage to “Boba” it’s because it’s an homage and not plagiarism.

  7. Murphy's Theory says:

    FINALLY! Someone else noticed!

  8. Jekka says:

    WOW who totally ripped off BOBA FETT!

  9. MNO says:

    Wha…? The Japanese RIPPED OFF something American and pretended it was their own?

    Shocked…I am shocked. And so disappointed (LOL).

    • Phaelin says:

      Well, sort of. They didn’t pretend it was their own. They made it their own character, yes, but they made no attempts to hide it, especially after the decision to even make him green.

  10. Karhs says:

    Vile was BASED on Boba Fett!
    But Fett still wins…

  11. Billy Bob says:

    How can you say they look alike? they have helmets on.

  12. A figment of your imagination says:

    And they just figured this out?

  13. BOUNTYHUNTER says:

    I like him…a little. Their helmets are almost the same! Wow. Reminds me of Jango Fett! Only he was blue not green.

  14. Moo says:

    The lookalike is completely intentional. When the X series came out Zero’s saber was meant to be a Jedi one. Vile was the English translation of Vava, who would be based off Boba.

    • Phaelin says:

      Vile’s not really the English translation. It was changed to Vile for copyright reasons. Nothing may have been done if it was left alone, but I don’t think Capcom wanted to take that risk.

  15. Kandehkitteh says:

    Star Wars:The Megaman Wars!!!LOL

  16. Garlet says:

    they’re the same person D=

  17. Rootay says:

    Vile is directly a reference to Star Wars as is much of the X series, such as the Z-saber (already mentioned) the rebellion forces in X4. Each series of Mega Man bears reference to different movies of an era. The classic series is an homage to Japanese monster invasion B-movies, X is space battle based, and Battle Network is very similar to The Matrix, in a way.
