Cmon Phoenix Wright vs Professor Layton!

 

[V_Arnold]

Alright, it is a lose/lose situation anyway.
If the Namco vs Capcom / Capcom vs Namco game DOES NOT gets announced, that is sad because this would have been single handedly the most important collaboration in the 25+ year old history of fighting games.
If the Namco vs Capcom / Capcom vs Namco game DOES gets announced, than it will be sad to see how all Namco fanboys AND Capcom fanboys will find a way to bash these products due to their unexplainable hate of the "other" fighting series.

I, for one, cant be more excited about this. This is gonna be so awesome. Something to break the usual stuff. And YES, usuall stuff means SF going its own way and it is own way only, and the same goes for Tekken. This would create an opportunity for both series's fans to take a breath, get to know other stuff better, and to play in something fresh. Because this is as far as it gets for any SF fan to get 15+ new, totally never played before character in their Street Fighterz, and the same goes to Tekken fans and "new" characters.

This would be the best announcement in the last few years for me, yet all I see is a lose/lose situation, and not because of the quality concerns (after T6/SFIV, there are no concern from my part). Sad.

 

[Xater]

Maybe it's Dino Crisis?

Has it been confirmed that it's a fighting game?

Ono is announcing his next game. Of course it's going to be a fighting game.

And why the hell is everyone so sure about Capcom vs Namco? So far Ono is still denying that collaboration between the two would work. I am still on the Darkstalkers train.

 

[AAK]

Sad.

Why do you care about what other people say about whichever respected franchise? Internet + anonymity always leads to douchebaggery... don't let that make you sad for something that you crave.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Arc System Works has an announcement the same day

The reason why I care is this: negative feeedback even before release is a huge concern over these type of games, as nobody would really love to buy a game which all their 'gaming buddies' seem to hate for one reason and another. They damage the chances of the product holding up well in the stores. Or not, well. That would be good to see them announced, being good, and selling well

 

[Xater]

Ono on Twitter:

Now, I called Harada-san as Tekken Project Leader. He was laughing about Rumor.

People who are interested in the game in the first place wouldn't be swayed by just a comment.

Trust me, like the poster above, it won't happen. As you can see from all the iplaywinner streams and devastation streams, the chat is flooded with Tekken hate yet Tekken 6 is the only game in Namco's previous fiscal year that met sales expectations.

 

[KAL2006]

Arc System Works has an announcement the same day

the game will be...
Fighting All Stars

featuring characters from Capcom (Street Fighter, Darkstalkers etc) , Namco (Tekken, Soul Calibur), Arc System Works (BlazBlue), SNK (KoF, Samurai Shodown etc) and Sega (Virtua Fighter, Guilty Gear)

 

[adamsapple]

Namco vs Capcom based on tekken mechanics?

yes fucking please !

 

[Mar]

I can't think of anything worse than Namco in my Capcom.

That could be very cool

But 2.5 Plox ;D

Is this supposed to be serious?

Who the hell hasn't played Tekken and Street Fighter at this point.

I think it's safe to say that by 2010, if either Heihachi or Ryu are in any way "new" to you, then you just quite simply don't like fighting games.

 

[LowParry]

For the Tekken characters I'm thinking Viper and her thunder knuckles for the mishimas with them maybe generally playing like makoto mixed with Ryu or something but then they will probably give some of the other characters random projectiles and way's to safely close the distance safely if they are not grappling characters.

Just remember. Wavedash > Plasma :lol

Uhm, a Ryu in a Tekken is a new, fresh thing, even if I know his name. Same goes for Heihachi in SF. You might have misread my post.

 

[CryptiK]

if it comes true we can finally match Zangief against a Grizzly Bear(Panda alt Skin) xD

 

[AAK]

:lol Deviantart is already at it:

Okay, that's awesome.

 

[faridmon]

So... Have they...umm... announced Ace Attorney 5 yet?

 

[Degen]

FINAL... ATOMI-- *throw escape*

FLASH KI-- *air counter*

SHOOORYU-- *block, juggle, bound, floor breaks, combo toward wall, wall combo*

TIGER... DESTRU-- *saw it coming because the camera zoomed in all obnoxiously, punish into oblivion*

 

[Dead Man]

I think the SC moves would fit better with SF than Tekken, but maybe that is just my inner SC fanvoice

 

[Dr Frasier Crane]

When ever I read the word ComicCon I actually see this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comecon

 

[krazen]

Tekken vs SF would fail on many levels:
SF community treats 3d like the plague (and for those game mechanics, rightfully so).

Tekken's still trying to recapture its glory outside of Asia at least in the home market; tacking such a weird project as opposed to fully focusing on TK7 seems a bit unwise.

 

[Sir Garbageman]

Might be old but 1up is going with the two games Capcom v Namco and Namco v Capcom rumors.

http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3180463

SC4 and Tekken 6 characters in the SF4 engine would be awesome, SF4 characters in the Tekken engine...not so much imo.

They're just reporting the GI rumor - doesn't seem to be anything from their own sources.

For some reason, Nintendo is at this year's Comic-Con...

They're showing off DQIX, S&P2, and Metroid: Other M

[Larson Conway]

saw a 'shop here so...
... its appropriate here no?

pac man vs ryu
FIGHT!

could certainly get behind this. wow. source?

 

[Sammy Samusu]

For some reason, Nintendo is at this year's Comic-Con...

It's Capcom, so it's not coming to Wii.

I'm still waiting mah Resident Evil 2 Remake...

Spoiler

and Monster Hunter 3G, and Zack Wiki 2

.

Anyway, I couldn't care less if it's indeed a fighting game.

 

[ultron87]

Tatsunoko vs Capcom says "Hi"?

source is photoshop and google image search

 

[BitchTits]

I'm not really interested in a Namco vs Capcom fighter, but the idea of Pac-Man in such a game would be brilliant, his specials and supers could be really fun!

 

[Degen]

It's Capcom, so it's not coming to Wii.

Why not? Shouldn't be that hard to make a rail shooter version.

 

[Dascu]

Why not? Shouldn't be that hard to make a rail shooter version.

If so, I'll take the Namco-developed one.

 

[TreIII]

Tatsunoko vs Capcom says "Hi"?

MM9 and MM10 also say "What up", and yet Inafune's new brain child, "Mega Man Universe" ain't coming to Wii, either. ;

I mean, let's not forget that Capcom's fiscal report for this year had the Wii only getting a few titles, while the PS3 and 360 got more. It ain't looking to be a good year to be a Capcom-fan who's a Wii-only owner...

 

[sixteen-bit]

If so, I'll take the Namco-developed one.

but didn't they make star fox assault?

 

[Snakeyes]

No...

Unless it has Luffy vs Dhalsim.

 

[Dascu]

but didn't they make star fox assault?

Oh, rail shooter.

Well, then there's only ex-Team Andromeda.

 

["God's Beard!"]

No...

Unless it has Luffy vs Dhalsim.

Why would Namco vs Capcom...?

Depending on what I see in MMU, this year might very well be the year I get another console. Oh and if Darkstalkers is announced for 360/PS3.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Why would Namco vs Capcom...?

Bandai Namco

 

[Snakeyes]

I hope Capcom buys Namco Bandai in the near future. The days of mediocre manga-inspired fighters will finally be over.

 

[Yazuka]

As long as KOS-MOS is in the game game, I'll buy both versions.

 

[TreIII]

You kiddin? Capcom were the same ones who, fairly recently even, put out fighting games based off of Kenichi and Fate.

At best, such an arrangement might entail that Capcom might get CC2 to do some thing like make a truly awesome game based off of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. That would be a sight to behold...

 

[Dizzy-4U]

Good man.

 

["God's Beard!"]

Bandai Namco

Wouldn't they have to get the rights from shuei... oooooooooohhhhhhh

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure is already the best fighting game ever made.

DERP DERP wrong company.

Now with ridiculous unblockable setups !

[Boss Doggie]

Damn it people, if you're going to use Bandai quit using on crappy anime (except .hack and Digimon since those two are actually owned by Bandai)!

True people will know that it's either having Kamen Rider doing a Rider Kick towards Ryu's face or the Green Dragon Ranger summoning his Dragonzord while stomping on Chun-Li. Or maybe have the obscure one where you have a Space Sheriff summon his galaxy bazooka to blast off Bison from space.

Yes I just reposted it
