Eh? Hey, Japan should get online play.

I'm just glad we're getting it, although the game will more or less have to sell on the Capcom name, here.

I think there's a G-Force/Gatchaman movie being made, so it could double as feeding fuel to the fire to get people hyped up for the movie.

Maybe they forgot to buy him in the store? He's unlockable, you know. O.o;

Solar · **Reply #203 on:** June 03, 2009, 09:16:07 PM

Considering the press release already confirms they axed someone?

...and will add 5 more too.

Wait, they said they were added 5 more characters?

What? Did no one click on the link in the E3 thread when Jelly told us there'd be online?

SAN MATEO, CA — June 2, 2009 — Capcom, a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video games, today announced that Tatsunoko vs. Capcom is coming to North America for the Wii home video game system. Capcom’s popular and critically acclaimed ‘VS’ fighting series is getting an all new next-generation introduction. Tatsunoko vs. Capcom pits Capcom’s iconic characters against Tatsunoko Productions anime superheroes. This clash of heroes face off in two-on-two battles for the ultimate 2D tag-team battle.

Originally released in Japanese arcades in the Fall of 2008, the original Tatsunoko vs. Capcom moved to the Wii console on December 11, 2008. This extraordinary fighter will blend these two rich universes by taking Capcom characters like Ryu from Street Fighter, Morrigan from Darkstalkers and the giant PTX-40A from Lost Planet and putting them against Tatsunoko fan-favorite characters from Gatchaman, Hurricane Polymar, Casshern and more. It’s a battle royale that delivers match-ups that only exist in fans wildest dreams!

Unlike the more well-known six-button layout that the Street Fighter franchise pioneered, the VS line features a simplified four button system: “Weak”, “Medium”, “Strong” and “Assist” for the tag-team option of. The “Assist” feature adds another compelling element found Capcom’s other “VS” series: allowing players to switch their character on the fly or call for help from their tag-team partner, allowing for spectacular super moves (“Hyper Variable Combination”). Successful execution of the Assist feature can turn the tide of battle on a dime. Historically the VS series excels in integrating the tag-team options by including customized moves like Variable Assist, Snapback, and the previously mentioned Hyper Variable combination that lets both characters on one team perform their Hyper attack.

TvC enhances the above gameplay with new mechanics, including the Variable Aerial Rave that allows characters to be switched in the middle of an Aerial rave. More moves include the offensive Assault and defensive maneuver Mega Crash. Another new gameplay mechanic, titled Baroque, illuminates the character in a rainbow of colors, cancels the current attack and extends combos and damage.

Featuring a robust line-up of characters, the console version added four mini-games and optional control schemes

This “newer” version of TvC, currently dubbed Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, removes one character due to licensing issues, and adds five new ones, online gameplay, more mini-games and an enhanced story mode.

Features:
• 26 fan-favorite characters from the Tatsunoko and Capcom universes face-off in this stylish 2D fighter.
• Tag-team battles and customized two-character fighting techniques produce a wild, dazzling spectacle.
• Wi-Fi Online gameplay allows worldwide matches.
• Four battle modes include Friend, Rival, Free and Ranked Battles.
• Match-ups are not restricted to just “Friends”.
• Earn Points and Titles (for Title Creation) for all to see.
• All-new VS gameplay mechanics creates a new way for fans to return to the series.
• More than 20 Mini-game provide additional multiplayer fun.
• Enhanced control schemes offer a simplified control scheme option and allow use of the Classic Controller and Gamecube Controller.
• Wii-exclusive.

Yay for the Wave Hadoken

Satoryu · **Reply #209 on:** June 04, 2009, 08:03:25 AM

hmm. it's a shame we're losing someone, but we are getting 5 new characters in his place, so it's not all bad.

out of any of the possibilities, the only character i really want to see in is Dante.

Pringer X · **Reply #210 on:** June 05, 2009, 09:30:58 PM

I don't even know who the one character is, I heard something about a genie-character not showing up and I'm wondering who exactly it is still (don't recall seeing anything like that in any picture of the roster).

There's your reason why they took out Hakushon Daimao. He's more popular in Japan. Not many people outside Japan knows about him.

Oh, and you unlock him in the game after you beat the game with Tatsunoko characters. Buy him in the shop. o.o

Pringer X · **Reply #212 on:** June 05, 2009, 09:38:17 PM

Took a look and saw who he was.

My question is why there was trouble in bringing him over. What licensing issues were there?

VixyNyan · **Reply #213 on:** June 05, 2009, 09:41:32 PM

The Anime was aired in Japan and Europe at least. It's a very old show from 1969.

Pringer X · **Reply #214 on:** June 05, 2009, 09:47:18 PM

Ah. So no one owns him in the states and they figured it'd be cheaper to replace him with 5 other people.

Not too bad a trade-off I guess. I mean, more fighters is always a good thing since there's still hope for others.

My guess is they're gonna throw in Dante, just because he's never shown up in a cross-over game before, and the fans would go nuts over him being in it.

The Drunken Dishwasher · **Reply #215 on:** June 05, 2009, 10:48:27 PM

As long I see Speedy Cerviche, I won't complain, at. All.

actually, thinking about the odd number of 5, We'll get 3 Tatsunoko and 2 Capcom...

so, I want Speedy Cerviche and a BoF character

. Comon' Capcom~

i'm a dumbass for forgetting Speed Racer. sadly, that's all i know from that Tatsu camp.

for the other Capcom rep, my friend had a good idea: Sigma. cause we need bad guys. he didn't go into specifics, but i imagine it would be like X1 Sigma with the beam saber. maybe incorporating moves from other Sigmas. X7 Sigma practically had Iron Man's Photon Cannon.

Legendary · **Reply #217 on:** June 06, 2009, 06:09:19 AM

High Max would be a good fit.

Maining Ryu, Casshern, and Karas. And Viewtiful Joe. =3

I've seen Hakushon Daimao in both English and Spanish too. My guess is that the licensing issues with him were not in NA, but in the PAL area.

HyperSonicEXE · **Reply #219 on:** June 06, 2009, 05:23:37 PM

Honestly, I have no idea who the other 5 could be. There's just a wide range of Tatsunoko and Capcom series that you could pull from.

Solar · **Reply #220 on:** June 06, 2009, 05:46:46 PM

Well, there's the obvious Speed Racer for the Tatsunoko side.

My list would be:
Tatsunoko
-Speed Racer
-Yatterman 2 (but there are already 2 Yatterman characters, so I don't think it's that good of an idea)
-Buraiking Boss (You guys know you want him in

)

Capcom
-Nero (for DMC representation)
-Tyrant (for RE representation. Sure, it's not Jill or Chris, but it'd still be awesome)

Gaia · **Reply #221 on:** June 06, 2009, 05:57:39 PM

Other than that Tron could see a return, so it could be two Lengends characters instead of the usual two Classic characters and 1 Lengends character.

we have 3 Street Fighter reps already. 3 Yatterman reps wouldn't be a problem.

Solar · **Reply #223 on:** July 02, 2009, 06:14:42 AM

Yeah, but at least they all represent a different game. Both Doronjo and Yatterman 1 represent the same anime, and so would Yatterman 2 if she was in.

They say it's for a fun secret, I wonder what it is. Anyways, vote Megaman and Yatterman in case it's something actually good!

Satoryu · **Reply #224 on:** July 02, 2009, 06:50:21 AM

i had an idea for the three Tatsu characters i'd like to see. first is the obvious choice, Speed Racer. second is one i'm just as mad at myself for forgetting: Samurai Pizza Cats. probably Speedy would be the pick. the last one is a bit of a stretch, though. i know Tatsunoko was involved with Evangelion, i just don't know how much. if licensing permits it, and they're creative enough, someone from Eva might be able to fit. my idea was for Rei to fight with the Spear of Longinus.

i was also thinking about my friend's idea for Sigma. i don't know if that'll work. TatsuCap is a game about heroes, right? i'm pretty sure Doronjo isn't a hero, but does that mean a true bad guy like Sigma can't be playable? if so, i'd still like to see someone with a beam saber. MMX Zero, MMZ Zero, Model ZX. or even better, Strider. and Dante is definitely my other Capcom pick.

now i just hope that extra character deal wasn't just speculation.
