Then it would make sense.

I mean, the Casshern guy already has a dog buddy, so surely Amaterasu shouldn't be much of a stretch

Thing is though, Friender, Cash's dog, is his assistant. They may make them have a sort of "Galford & Poppy" type of thing here (and judging by the way Friender spits fire, while Cash may be free to do something else, that might be the case).

Amaterasu, as a single character by herself, would be a bit more...interesting in this respect. Canine model as a fighting game character would probably make for annoying battles, due to a funky hitbox.

I mean, if you thought trying to fight Rockman, Roll and Servbot in MvC/2 was annoying...

I'd bet that Evil would at least be in, since he was, more or less, Blade's main enemy in the series.

They could make him and Blade basically as different from each other as Ryu and Gouki(Akuma) if they wish, but I REALLY want to see Evil up in this.

Well it is a VS. game so they could easily just mess around with the proportions. Plus she wasn't puppy size. In comparison to the games NPCs she was actually pretty damn huge. People ride her a few times in the game!

They should shrink down the Evangelion robots and have them as fighters.
Then we'd really enter the land of Mugen.

Well, in fairness though, the people in Ookami has tiny legs, so the scales won't match up properly, but it doesn't matter... broken or not Amaterasu SHOULD be there. I demand it! >:|

Well, then....I suppose the only thing that could possibly be a bother (which may also be a concern for the sake of Gene the God Hand) is the notion that both of their games didn't do all that well in Japan.

That being the case, and this game being made for Japanese otaku...that might rain on both Gene and Ammy's parades. A shame too...

On the other hand, this probably would mean that a spot for a Gyakuten Saiban/Phoenix Wright character is pretty much in the bag...

Agreed. I'm not nearly as big a fan of Tatsunoko characters as I am of Marvel IP's so the fanservice ("One for J.J.") on the non-Capcom side that made the MvC series so awesome will be lost on me. The characters still look cool and all, I just won't be able to enjoy them on the level of more familiar characters.

I'm still extremely hyped for the Capcom side though. I really hope they use some recognizable characters that haven't been seen in this capacity yet. That means more characters that aren't from fighters, Capcom! At least stay away from Street Fighter FFS. Chun Li and Ryu... okay moving along now.

Yeah, it''s also weird to see 1990s Chun Li versus 1970's Battle of the Planets, pretty much my only connction with the Tatsunoko side.

Still, artistically and even graphically this looks great.

Sengoku Basara X was built on System 256 as well for the quick (and I mean really quick, Arcade release was April of this year, the PS2 port is June of this year, also SBX was outsourced work to Arc System Works, so the game isn't even Capcom to begin with really) PS2 port.

If this game is Taito Type X2 (which it probably is), expect it to be on PS3 and probably X360.

And because of the Tatsunoko licence this is pretty much guaranteed to not come out in Western territories due to licensing issues.

But for PS3 owners (if this is heading to PS3) can just import. ; )

Don't forget the FATE game, "Unlimited Codes". That's also Capcom, even if they gave it off to 8ing for development. It's also on the 256, so if this cross-over game was another 256 project, that make for a total of three 256 games. Good enough to serve the purpose of gaining money to suit development of possibly other bigger and better things on the TX2.

Like many other companies, I'm sure Capcom sees that there's profit to be had by squeezing every last penny/yen from the PS2 market, before it dries up completely in about another year and some change.

That's why, at least to me and a number of others, the writing's on the wall for this game to be probably a 256 game, as well. A game that was made on a short development cycle, on a cheap board, for easy and quick distribution and then probably a quick console port job...? That sounds like Capcom all over (again).

Logically speaking, there's no real reason for this game to be on the Taito X2, and thus not on the PS3. Why spend more money than necessary, and possibly cut into profits because of limited distribution and people not being able to buy the game, because the adoption rate of the PS3 and TX2 alike is still in its relative infancy?

So again, I just say, examine the source. This is a cross-over game. A game that Capcom will want many people to play. Look at the graphics...it's not exactly something that screams "HD" in any sense of the term. And then look at Capcom, veritable kings of knowing how to play their chips when it comes to things like this.

All of this just screams a quick-n-dirty arcade run, followed by a hasty PS2 port to get as many profits as possible. SF4 is already a big enough drain on their funds, so I doubt that they would want to have two...

I could get behind that kind of notion. PW would probably be a fun and inventive character, if they had enough imagination.

If nothing else, his funky hairstyle would fit right in with a lot of the Tatsunoko side, who probably will seem eternally stuck in the 60-70s.

Alright, any previous Capcom Vs. game is now obsolete. Seriously, Tatsunoko is a DREAM company for a Vs. game, its just too fucking surreal for it to be true, but it is....woah, awesome.

Well, this one's gonna blow you away.



OH SHI---


In all seriousness, here's a few Tatsunoko characters for those of you unfamiliar with them that will likely show up in the game.


Characters from Genesis Climber MOSPEADA
Although the show featured transformable fighter jets and other sorts of cool robots, most likely we will see these guys. The armor the guy is wearing transformers into a motorcycle. Pretty cool, huh?


GOLD LIGHTAN.
This one will go over well with the 4chon most likely, given the manner in which his name is spelled.


Yattaman. Already visible in the screenshots, as you can see. Someone's gonna be playable.


Otoha from Karas. Most likely other characters from Karas will be playable as well.


Samurai Pizza Cats. Already mentioned by many, but they're fucking hilarious so I had to add 'em in.


Shulato.

Either one, or both versions of Tekkaman... (this is a no-brainer; he's a LOCK)

Either the original version, Tekkaman....


Or the 90's revision, Tekkaman Blade (some of you may remember this as TEKNOMAN).

And here's some characters/shows you will NOT be seeing, so STOP bringing them up!


Neon Genesis Evangelion. It's a pipe dream. GAINAX owns the property; Tatsunoko only animated it.


Macross. Same boat as EVA; Tatsunoko animated it, but Big West/Bandai owns the property.


also KYYYAAAASHYAAAAAAAAN~
