Legendary Master Shin

Legendary Master Shin is a character that appears in the MegaMan Star Force series. He wears a gray outfit with a red tie and a belt that reads "LEGEND." He has several uses in-game in both MegaMan Star Force and MegaMan Star Force 2. He supports, sanctions, and searches for all things Legendary. He didnt belong to a sattelitte admin in the first game and has a visualizer that lets him see em waves.

In both the first and second Star Force, Legendary Master Shin recognizes players' Best Combos, and can turn them into one-time-use battle cards for a fee. In the second game he is also the moderator of the Sky Hi Colosseum, and keeps track of the player's progress within it. He is capable of redeeming "Cipher" codes players find throughout the first and second game of the series, yielding chips, abilities, or different items for the player to use. Interestingly, in the first two games, Shin seems knowledgeable about Megaman's actions and the battle going on. His role by the the third game has been dramatically reduced; he is no longer capable of supporting the player and only appears once during a cutscene on the television where it is revealed that he is a EM wave fanatic and scientist. In the second game, the player could obtain a brother band with LM shin by using a wireless station, but now the only possible way is to use a cheat engine.

Trivia

 * Master Shin's role in the game is similar to that of Mr. Famous and at some point to that of Higsby, both characters from the Network series which were known for the code system of acquiring items.
