New crossover fighting game from Capcom with Tatsunoko Productions, a big anime production company. They have a shitload of characters in their stable, ranging from Speed Racer to Evangelion, Samurai Pizza Cats to Teknoman, Robotech to Gatchaman, and anything between. Right now the only confirmed characters are Chun Li, Ryu, Gatchaman dode, and Casshern. 3d graphics in classic 2d gameplay, like SF4. I hope capcom reps Resident Evil, DMC, Lost Planet, and Dead Rising in this one, along with their classic shit.

Yet another game that stands about a snowball's chance in hell of coming out here.

Yeah I saw this yesterday, sounds awesome to me haha. As DE said though, I think this has a incredibly low chance of making it here, but we can only hope. Man... it'd make my year if Capcom gets DMC in the mix... and Speed Racer.

There's been quite a bit of media released for the game, and I think the final roster is complete or near it. In any case, here are a few videos of the game. It looks fun as hell haha.

This is an 8 minute video of various gameplay systems and what not. Also show some of the minigames that will be in the game.



Better quality videos of...

who cares if it doesn't come out here. i mean it's a fighting game and i dont think any current systems have reigon locks. anyways it looks awesome. i hope it has tekkaman blade 2 characters(aka teknoman season 2)

Posted by: Crushinator Nov 24 2008, 11:18 AM

The only current gen console that isn't region locked is PS3. Wii is fully region-locked, and most 360 titles are region-locked.

Did you say that with a straight face, cause you damn well know systems don't stay region locked for very long.

Posted by: Crushinator Nov 24 2008, 01:30 PM

I was responding to Alisha's misinformation that "i dont think any current systems have region lock". Obviously if you're going to mod/flash your system then you can run whatever you want. However, seeing as this game in particular is a Wii timed exclusive and Alisha seems to intend on importing it, she'll run into some issues if she expects her Wii to just play it without any mods.

Posted by: Knightsword Nov 24 2008, 01:35 PM

True enough, but I think that's what she meant when she posted that, but we'll have to wait for her response.

Got this game Friday, and I'm deeply in love with it haha. It's been a long while since a Marvel style VS game has come around, so it feels great to have the crazy combos and team attacks back. The controls are even more simplified than MvC2 is, but you can do some great things with what you have. I still haven't figured out all the bells and whistles like Baroque Combos, Snap Backs, and Team Air Combos, but I've only had the game a couple of days haha. Oh, and this game is easily the prettiest game on Wii. I was actually kind of shocked to see the size of the character models, and also how good it looked on big ass TV haha. It's definitely a must buy Wii game, and is likely the best fighting game this year, but the import cost is pretty damn steep. I'd maybe wait until it's cheaper or um... use other methods to give it a play. Henshin-A-Go-Go-Baby!

Nintendo Power reveals this is actually coming out in the US!

I dunno how the hell the pulled it off, but amazing news!

Posted by: Knightsword May 17 2009, 12:03 AM

Whats sad, is gonna be all the bitchy fan boys complaining its on the wii and ignoring the fact we're extremely luck to get this over here at all.

Posted by: Scan_Man May 17 2009, 03:16 PM

I wonder how many people Capcom had to kill to bring it over here. Anways, this is awesome news.

Posted by: Vitamin D Jun 2 2009, 09:08 PM

Oh god DAMMIT, looks like I'm buying it again. http://capcom.gamespress.com/link.asp?i=145&r=6280&r2=4141. But even more interesting is this tidbit from that link.

Wow, that's damn impressive. I wonder who got the cut, but more importantly, who the hell did they add!? I'm excited for this game... again.

Posted by: Crushinator Jun 3 2009, 12:56 PM

Oh jam, five new guys? DANTE maybe? hahaha.

Posted by: AC9breaker Jun 3 2009, 03:02 PM

Im calling it now, Nathan "RAD" Spencer. aka The Bionic Commando

Posted by: Vitamin D Aug 15 2009, 06:09 PM

Dude, I hope this is some kind of clue. http://kotaku.com/5338190/capcom-toyed-with-idea-of-phoenix-wright-vs-tatsunoko I hope they go ahead with it in the Western version, that'd be TOP TIER.

Posted by: Crushinator Aug 15 2009, 07:08 PM

I that "in localization his move would be too big" excuse is bullshit, because I don't think Capcom had any intention of localizing this game when it was being developed. Although he would rock as a new character for the US release

Posted by: Crushinator Sep 10 2009, 04:37 AM

First new character revealed:

Tekkaman Blade, better known as "Teknoman" here in the USA.

Posted by: Alisha Sep 10 2009, 04:27 PM

now that looks a LOT more like the tekkaman ive seen in SRW games. i was wondering why the one they had before looked kinda weird now i know.

Posted by: Crushinator Sep 10 2009, 05:32 PM

Rumors are the remaining new characters are going to be Frank West (Dead Rising), Zero (Mega Man X), Yatterman #2, and Joe Asaskura (Gatchaman).
