As long as he stays in that Vita version and away from consoles I don't care.

Yeah, but it was running horribly when he was playing it.... It looked slower than 30 fps.
If they're gonna put unrelated Guest Characters in, I'd rather see a KoF Team XD
Would be a fitting throwback to their truest rivals from days past.
...it is pretty odd, though. I wouldn't expect them to go to Sucker Punch for an exclusive chara. I don't mind the way he looks in the game though... he looks just as goofy as any of the oddball stuff (Bears, Chibi Dinos, girls who attack with their detached heads, raptors, etc) that Tekken has, so fine.
While I think it's bad for the competitive community (no hope of chara returning, takes potential time away from other characters, etc, etc), I think guest chara's serve the purpose of making ONE character that the general public cares about, which really is fine. They're fun to mess around with casually, they can have some cool new moves invented for them, and they present some cool oppurtunities (Endings done by artist that'd never touch the main game, non-fighter stages in fighting game formats, new style for the extablished characters, etc). For the pure GAME aspect of fighters, the part that's just about fun and enjoyment, I'm always happy to see this kinda thing.

I said this in the other thread, but this is seriously the least exciting exclusive character announcement ever

If you're focusing more on the announcement of Cole in the game then the game announcement itself, I HIGHLY doubt you were going to buy any iteration of SFxT in the first place, let alone a PSV version.

Yeah.SAB CA said:
I was thinking about guest characters in SFxTK before this announcement, and I had thought that a Scorpion/Sub-Zero pair would fit the most.
get it, because snk is not as popular in america compared to japan, and i am an american teehee

The one thing people should put aside are framerate concerns.
SFxTekken isn't even done for the arcade version yet.
The entire game is like 50% complete.
They probably got this Vita demo up and running over a couple of weeks.
Capcom isn't going to release a triple A fighting game on a quad core portable that doesn't run at 60fps.

I know what you're trying to say, but an actual arcade version has not been mentioned anywhere in regards to this title.Kaijima said:

More good news.
Yes, it's a port, but a fighting game port is okay because fighting games, by nature, are pick up and play experiences.

Yeah hopefully. I want it to run 60 FPS though. I wonder if that's asking too much.
The whole point of Vita is that is has cross-play with PS3 games, right? So I'd assume the PS3 and Vita versions would have the same features.
I do have to wonder if the 360 (and Cafe?) versions would get exclusives too, now.

Nevermind Cole, I hope this game ends up being good, I am still a little iffy with it's bright and eye piercing art style, as long as it plays well ( like SFIV) I guess it will be forgiven.
So I suppose the console versions will come out before this? can someone confirm that?

I doubt Ono would have put in an entire 2 characters I don't hate between the two franchises anyway.

Looks like I'm in for a Triple Dip at some point in time. I'm surprised that Capcom has even went this route because it's not of their usual nature. Cole looks to fit right in with the rest of the cast and it gives PS3/Vita owners something special and a damn good reason to pick up a copy. Who knows if the 360 gets any love out the deal but I think Capcom vs PlayStation is coming in 2014.

Personally, the only guest character that didn't seem out of place to me was Heihachi. He even has some (plausible) canon links to the series. (It's widely speculated that Tekken and Soul Calibur take place in the same universe.)Throavium said:
Link was too cartoony in appearance for me. Plus, he's such an iconic character I couldn't really get past the weird factor.

Pretty cool but I hope SSFIV: Arcade Edition is also in the works for launch.

So I guess nobody was feeling Nicole in DoA but me? Plasma Grenade Stick is one of the most disrespectful throws in video games. She had a lot of Bayman and Leon to her but she wasn't a failed experiment in that case. The same for Link in Soul Calibur 2. There is a reason why that version sold more copies than the PS2 and XBOX versions. It's a testament to the fact that console exclusive characters can work if done correctly. And for the record, Peach was a monster in V3. EA really showed love to the GameCube with that and Little Mac and Super Punch Out in Fight Night Round 2.
However this is a practice that is and will become the norm because of the payoff both sides get. In this case Capcom is gonna sell more copies on PS3/PSV because of Cole's appearance and people who wouldn't bother with inFAMOUS2 might give it a second look. But some are going to get alienated and left out but that money is gonna talk a lot quicker. Just look at MK9 and it proves that this is something that works and now that this is seen as viable it's gonna get nasty real quick.
