bad gameplay lol
Oh yeah, I'd definitely buy the hell out of a Toei vs Capcom game (if my avatar weren't enough proof of that already :lol )

On the subject of Tatsunoko vs Capcom though...any idea when we might hear about the new characters? I'm optimistic for Date Masamune and Gene...

...though I know there's absolutely no chance of either getting in the game :(
 
Hakushon Daimao removed from Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom's NA version.

“I guess it’s OK to tell everyone this now. He’s [Hakushon Daimao] not in the game. We had some licensing issues with him so we weren’t able to obtain him for the American version." - Ryota Niitsuma, Producer.

Does this mean there's still a chance that the European version will have Hakushon?

They already said no Speed Racer

Awh man, I really want Speed to get all up in this shite. :lol

Come on Capcom, do a super surprise and announce some sweet characters!

Also, no word on if Online is in?

Went back to playing this yesterday after not touching it for a few months, forgot how awesome it was. I played through arcade mode as some of the characters I've yet to use. I really like Yatterman and Ippatsuman on the Tatsunoko side and Soki's level 3 super is a nice nod to Onimusha's soul absorbing.

I noticed that Arthur appears in Soki's ending so I guess he's one of the most likely characters to be added on Capcom's side.
 
As far as I can tell, Hakushon Daimao was barely aired in the US, if at all - I can't even find a trademark for it, under any of the titles listed on IMDB. I have no idea why whoever holds such an obscure license would stand in the way of a game that might actually get the character some exposure. Not very bright.

That's what I was thinking. Is it really just a licensing issue?

Well, maybe they chickened out because he's a fairly bad stereotype? :lol

Hey, it's all that I could think about it. Really doesn't make much sense otherwise. I mean, didn't they basically say that they released this game without giving much thought to the license holders that may exist any way?

I don't think it much as a confirmed, but more on the interpretation of the journalist seeing no Speed Racer.

However, mind you that Speed Racer is an expensive character.

For countries outside of Japan, yes.

Really? REALLY? :D I went through the trouble of reunlocking all the characters and NOT buying him so people dropping by couldn't pick him. I remember having a conversation with a friend of mine about how I'd pay 5 dollars to remove him from my game. I couldn't be happier oh man.

I really should hurt you...
I'm going to take a picture of me using it just for you. =P

Some things to note:
-Most of the music has been replaced.
-Exploring about 3-4+ new characters.
-Sequels, if they exist, will probably be on Wii.

Definitely cool for Wii owners, but I'd like to see them stick to their guns on this one.

It seems weird they still don't know who the characters will be.

And if they've already paid for characters they may not use, doesn't that mean that they're franchise repeats?

I wonder if they are developing multiple characters but haven't decided which ones they'll actually use. This quote from the Siliconera interview could indicate that:

We’re still working on which characters to add and ones to put in so I can’t give you any specifics on that.

Right now I’m looking at around three to four, maybe more. Nothing has been finalized yet. We will be making an announcement very soon about how many characters and who they are.
I thought the bolded part was a slighty odd way to word that answer.

Didn't they say they were going to keep the Capcom and Tatsunoko sides balanced? If they're removing one Tatsunoko character, the number of new characters pretty much has to be odd.

Unless they make Yami playable or something. :p

Perhaps they realized that, if this game is to succeed in America, it won't be off the back of the Tatsunoko brand.

Keeping fingers crossed for the two robots from Superbook and Flying House for the lulz.

Throw in Speedy from Samurai Pizza Cats and we have a winner. :D

Music being replaced makes me sad. Especially if it's just going to be more of that same "generic techno" that we've been hearing.

Ah well...looks I'll be buying this game...again....for great justice (and sequels).

I am utterly oblivious to the workings of TvC and truthfully will never get this game, but I'm curious to know; why do you feel this way? Is he a really annoying character? Videos I've seen of him make him look pretty useless...

For those wondering, besides new music, the character select screen is no longer a static grid for selecting characters but instead a turning wheel from what I just watched. I assume there are two layers, one for each side.

Which would be horrible for two players. >_>
