To do an upscaled release, Capcom would have to basically go back, and craft a special/specific version of the game that would out-put that higher resolution, and then have it run on a different set of hardware (separate from the original hardware that the Arcade release runs on). That's much more in the way of actual work, as opposed to trying to downscale a game from a higher resolution. Again, I can't see Capcom doing that, when this game already was made with a specific audience in mind, and was meant to be a decidedly different product from SF4 from Day 1. |

I can see the point you're trying to make.
But then again...Namco completely redid the graphics of Tekken Tag and Soul Calibur, which both ran on the System 12, and released them on the PS2 and Dreamcast respectively. The point is they put in the work to redo their art assets vs. just upscaling. And then Tekken 5 DR, which runs at 1080p, 720p resolutions... |

it's running on taito type x2, i.e. pc-based hardware that outspecs wii even in its weakest configurations: http://www.system16.com/hardware.php...5&page=1#18672

To my immediate recollection, the only time Capcom did anything to similar effect was for the aforementioned Kikaioh (Tech Romancer) being ported to DC, and even there, that was just a matter of upscaling the resolution (there were still PSX-level textures to be had). If Capcom had more of propensity to do things of even that nature, then perhaps I wouldn't be but so "close-minded" about the notion. But again, Capcom's not Namco, so therefore, I can't imagine Capcom spending THAT much money to do such a thing. In the case that this game is not Wii-exclusive, being ported downward to the PS2 is much more likely than anything else. But I would imagine that if this game was meant to hit the PS2, chances are, Capcom would have made this game for 246/256 in the first place. Last edited by TreIII : 09-09-2008 at 05:05 AM. |

Those 3 happen to be very reputed sources of information when it comes to arcade hardware and games. ...That's a bit more than what can be said for System 16, who seems to think that "Fate: Unlimited Codes" and "Sengoku BASARA X" are also Taito X2 games which is VERY, VERY WRONG. They're both System 246/256 games. |

As much as I like Alex, Morrigan and Batsu there are many more Capcom characters I'd rather have. |

Looks like my guess that Capcom would have a counterpart for Gold Lightan was right-on. Never expected it to be from Lost Planet, though. I would have put my money on Nemesis/Tyrant or Blodia.
These are cool additions, though (particularly Karas). Kind of funny that they make a good pair, both being from their respective company's newer stuff. This brings the roster to 16. I wonder how many more we'll get. I still think 20 is a reasonable number, and I really don't see this game not having Speed Racer in it, so there's got to be a few more. Still holding out hope for Phoenix Wright... |

Morrigan and Batsu are just more shoto-like characters and it would've been cool to see more variety. 2: from a business standpoint, no DMC or RE characters is odd, they're both very popular franchises from Capcom and I'd personally like to see characters from those series as they would certainly be unique. I also think Dante would generate more excitement than an egg shaped robot wielding a chainsaw  |
