Support NeoGAF

[kazuo]

So yeah, it is confirmed that the game is in Taito X2.

I was unaware that there was any legit reason to doubt it, even before the loctests:

- CapCom had previously committed to supporting Taito's TypeX2 hardware and releasing several titles (which is basically the standard for "big" arcade games nowadays in Japan)

- The game was clearly loaded in Vewlix cabs, which were made specifically for TypeX/2.

In any case, it's good to know this for a fact... I won't need to buy more shitty hardware to play it lol

I like this version of Ryu way more than the SF4 version , SF4 Ryu looks straight out of Gears of War, which is a shame.

I whole heartedly agree.

Man I am so psyched about TvsC and SFIV. I've got my HRAP EX preordered, hoping it ships soon so I can mod it!

 

[Boss Doggie]

Well, I thought the Narutimate Hero 3, Accel 1 and 2 were a lot more "beautiful-looking" than this, so I thought this could go to PS2.

imports time for sure if theres a console version eventually

 

[mr_nothin]

Yes Snoopers...after seeing those videos...I think this artstyle is better too.

 

[king zell]

coming to the Wii ?

Yes please.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Dammit...I wanted to import it.

 

[zoku88]

Dammit...I wanted to import it.

My sentiments. Not like this is coming out stateside, anyway.

 

[TreIII]

The 2ch populace seems to be basically accepting this as truth, whether they actually like it or not. :lol

If this is indeed true, then I guess that one 2channer who called for "Wii exclusive" was onto something after all...

Dammit...I wanted to import it.

You still can. If you have a Wii that hasn't been updated past 3.2, get Freeloader. Problem solved.

Otherwise, you can use the Homebrew app through Geckoloader to do basically the same thing.

 

[Drkirby]

Ah, thats good. Now if they could just confirm Phoenix Wright, I would be happy...

Omg omg yes please.

Edit: The kanjis after Wii互換基板 means something like "compatible circuit board".

Edit2: Better be true!

 

[Barkley's Justice]

ahwww...look at them go...they get so happy when a game is potentially being released on their system. so cute!

 

[Boss Doggie]

Could I be blunt and say that with the Wii release semi-confirmed, a PS2 is also coming out?

 

[Drkirby]

ahwww...look at them go...they get so happy when a game is potentially being released on their system. so cute!

... We are happy its coming out for a console. Its a lot easier to import a console game then an arcade cabinet.

Also, who says the PS2 is powerful enough to run the game? People do seem to over look that even the gamecube was stronger then the PS2.

 

[Tenbatsu]

OMG, its really coming to Wii, time to get a japanese Wii.

 

[TreIII]

Well, to be fair, we're not 100% sure. From what I heard, Fighter's Front Line usually knows their stuff, and they're fairly credible. But we probably should still wait for something more credible in something like Famitsu before we start really getting hot n bothered, eh?

True. But there HAVE been several Taito Type X/X2 games that have ran on the PS2. King of Fighters: MI Regulation A, a TX2 game, being a fairly recent example of this.

In the end, it really depends on how far TC pushes the X2 hardware. If the PS2 could run a version of the game with minimal/no sacrifices necessary, chances are, Capcom won't miss the chance to make it so.

True but problem is that site is really credible thats why....

[TreIII]

I know. But like I said, because the benefit of the doubt IS there, I don't think it's 100% safe to parade about just yet.

I mean, shoot, it being on the Wii would be perfectly fine by me (PS2/Wii/PS3, I'm covered!), but I would still like to see a bit more, before I'm ready to invest in getting a few more PS2-GC port converters for my friends.

I understand, its the following list that makes me made this rush decision ;_;

Fragile
Fatal Frame 4
Tenchu 4
Captain Rainbow
Sky Crawlers

And lastly my most impt game, Monster Hunter 3. Still I will wait a while thou

 

[haunts]

Why do people think this wont come out here? Marvel is huge in the states..

 

[Ferrio]

Why do people think this wont come out here? Marvel is huge in the states..

Licensing problems, same reason why something like Jump Ultimate Stars can't come over.

 

[Jaded Alyx]

I guess I must be really tired.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

looks really cool. Maybe they can replace the licenses stuff with something else for North America? Perhaps the return of Marvel characters?

 

[zoku88]

Why do people think this wont come out here? Marvel is huge in the states..

Marvel is also one company that owns all of its properties in the US.

It's not coming over for the same reason why SRW doesn't come out in the US (except for the ones that are 100% original.) Too many companies hold the licenses.

 

[Yoshichan]

Oh my god... it looks unbelievable. Please, please, PLEASE, PS2 port to US/EU.

 

[vertopci]

I'm going to be pissed as hell if the only console this comes out for is the damn Wii

 

[mintylurb]

Dang, this game looks so sweet. I hope for a ps3 port so at least I can import it.

 

[Snaku]

Is that a Mega Man Legends stage I see?

 

[haunts]

Licensing problems, same reason why something like Jump Ultimate Stars can't come over.

Oohh.. The characters arent all owned by one company then?



Oh well, guess we'll have to wait for a souped up version, aka MVC3.

 

[The Abominable Snowman]

More vids.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4XnG28BHh8 (Alex pwn)

You mean Chun-Li pwn. She must be a high-tier character in this game because all the vids I see of her all show her massively owning her opposition.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Actually, the only anime that they will have problem with are three - Casshern, Tekkaman and Gatchaman. Assuming they will add Go Mifune (Speed Racer/Mach GoGoGo!), Yattaro (Kyatto Ninden Teyande/Samurai Pizza Cats), and Karas, that adds to a total of six.

 

[TreIII]

Oohh.. The characters arent all owned by one company then?

Well, they are...in Japan. Tatsunoko owns all of its own stuff in Japan, so that made it easy for Capcom to just enter into a deal with them directly.

However, it's not that simple over here, because as soon as they would try to bring this game over here, problems would arise, because other parties own rights to some of the properties in the game. Ookami basically outlined what would be the main issues (with the omission of Tekkaman Blade, who I also think would be at least some what likely, if not for this game, then certainly a sequel).

So basically, as long as there would stand to be ANY issues, TC ain't coming here. I mean, shoot, the likes of Hokuto no Ken (ASW, PS2) for technically similar reasons, Sega only had to do deal with ONE IP in each instance.

Like 85% of all good FGs that come out...be ready to import if you want in on the party.

 

[Mistouze]

^This.

Honestly the only chance we have to ever get this game out of Japan is that Capcom gets back the Marvel licence and converts the game to Marvel vs Capcom 3.

 

[Grecco]

Or simply aquire a new licence and convert this game?



(if i can run it on a console here ill still import it though)

 

[ShockingAlberto]

On the plus side, unless it comes to 360, it's actually pretty easy to play import games, anyway.

 

[Grecco]

If it comes out on X360 couldnt they just make it Region free ?

 

[v0yce]

You could hope for an Asia version. But the chances of a Japanese only Street Fighter game being on the 360 are small IMO.

Probably PS2 or PS3, so playing the import shouldn't be too much of a hurdle.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

They could but they likely wouldn't.

 

[Tenbatsu]

Wii will most likely be the confirm platform from what we know so far,

http://ffl.sakura.ne.jp/rv/box1/tatsuvscap.htm

only mystery is if there will be a PS2 version.

 

[TreIII]

Straight on the heels of the Wii "confirmation" (it seems to basically confirmed, but yeah, I'll wait til a more mainstream source...), 2ch delivers on yet another interesting tidbit.

If the newest blurbs are to be believed, Doronjo (from Yatterman, aka Marjo in Time Bokan and etc.) and Rockman Volnutt are the two newest unveils for TC.

Reportedly, there's supposed to be a new promo vid going around, and just in time for SBO, nonetheless.

Taken with salt grains and all that until we get 100% proof, but if true, this party only gets better by the day.

Gyat dammit Capcom, how did you go from basically having no FG presence for years on end, to rocking my world so badly with TC?!

 

[Boss Doggie]

BOOBIES!

 

[Space Runaway]

So unless you count Morrigan, Doronjo is the only villain in this game so far.

I'm guessing they'll use her slightly sexed up 2008 design what with the remake currently airing and all.

:O

Time to start modding my Hori sticks.

 

[TreIII]

:O

Time to start modding my Hori sticks.

You can do that, or you can like purchase a GC-PS2 port converter for like 5-15 bucks on Play-asia. That way, you can still use whatever FG-stuff you got for the PS2 on the Wii as well, and you save money and time.

 

[Boss Doggie]

After seeing the Akuma/Gouki thread, let's pray that he doesn't appear here.

 

[panda21]

wii??!! damn it no import

 

[Boss Doggie]

Well, there's a chance for a PS2 port too...

...besides, if you're a fighting game fan then you MUST have an import/modded console.
