I'm not surprised. It's to my knowledge that vs games never really did that well in japan. If right, then it makes me question why the fuck we don't have a vs game stateside. 
At any rate. Roll looks like a lot of fun to play. XD

Unless the game suddenly sparks sales during the rest of the week, it bombed.
Deep in my heart, I'm hoping this becomes an evergreen title and is in actuality a slow-burner.
I'm delusional.

This was during the twilight of 2D fighters, just look at recent sales of King of Fighters XI or Guilty Gear on consoles.Even though this isn't horrid for a fighting game it still is far less then what Capcom was expecting with a fighter of this budget.

Because Capcom pushed the game toward traditional fighting fans?

Damn that combo is pretty awesome. I've played for around 8 hours and most of the time has been in training mode, and, yes, it's all sorts of fun.

Again, the game has just been released. It'd be quite unfair if we simply grab the sales a day after its release.
I still want to unlock some 3P costumes.

I was thinking you could link after Batsu's air fireball. If he only had a good assist he'd be perfect.
Are there 3P costumes for Tatsunoko characters? You can buy 3p costumes in the shop for capcom characters after you play their minigame, but no tatusnoko costumes have appeared in the shop for me.

I fucking love Ippatsuman and Hurricane Polymar. They're just so wicked and I love ending aerial raves with their supers.
But even though I've unlocked all the mini-games... none still beat PTX-40A. My friend and I were on that for at least 30 minutes yesterday. I'm still impressed at how good a lot of them are, but the wrist is killing me from all the waggle heavy ones like Gold Lightan's and Tekkaman's.

PTX vs final boss is impossible
I buy the minigames now that I have the characters, but I have no clue which minigames are for which characters. Luckily the only one I bought happened to be megaman! sadly the game is a damn counting servebot thing.

At least the PTX can try its damndest to hang back and fire projectiles all day. That gives him at least SOMETHING to work with.
You really want an impossible match? Try putting Lightarn against the Final. Lightarn, quite literally, has NOTHING to help him in that fight. It's even worse than pitting Zangief against Onslaught in MvC1! :lol
Friend and I were basically going back and forth trying to clear the game with Lightarn, and only were able to do so after turning the difficulty down to 1 Star. Even there, it took everything that Lightarn COULD do, plus the AI not being as aggressive, for me to get Lightarn through.

wow, that PTX mini game is actually pretty damn fun. I do wish that I could plug in my CC and play it twin stick tho.

This. I had the fucking hardest time and I did exactly what you did in order to beat that asshole Yami. I'm just glad he didn't keep doing his fucking grab supers on me like in difficulty 8. It was straight retarded.TreIII said:
Doing it with PTX is a fucking breeze in comparison.

Tatsunoko Vs Capcom Impressions
Finally. The Versus series gets its first psuedosequel in 8 years, and it was worth the wait. Despite the shifting of licenses from US-based Marvel Comics to JP-based Tatsunoko Productions, and the implementation of 3D visuals, it holds up as the best fighting game released for the current generation of consoles (though admittedly there haven't been too many yet).
The gameplay is typical Versus series, and feels like an updated version of MvC. The reduction of possible buttons does take some getting used to (as attacks are limited to 3 buttons - weak, strong, and fierce), and launchers don't work the way you necessarily expect. As opposed to MvC2, there are 22 characters to choose from, though each one is expertly rendered in 3D. Particle effects are some of the best ever on Wii, as the visuals in this game are some of the first to match, or even surpass in some cases, Nintendo first-party efforts. The end boss, compared with the ones from previous VS titles, takes some skill to take down and will require more turtling than most aggressive players are used to having to do.
The new gameplay elements, including Baroque (which acts like a Guilty Gear Roman Cancel but with a damage multiplier) will make the game relevant for high-level play, and I can see it quickly becoming a valid tournament fighter despite the scaled-back control scheme.
The minigames included as extras which use the Wiimote are fairly pointless exercises in waggle, but they do provide another way of earning points to unlock characters, stage profiles, BGMs, art, and character descriptions in the shop. There are ONLY four hidden characters and NO new stages to unlock (but a bunch of waggletastic minigames :lol )
Miscellaneous Info:
I know some of this has been posted already, but to clear things up, I wanted to include the katakana this time around. Also the info on gamefaqs for unlocking characters isn't accurate, although the previous post around pg. 71 appeared correct. I wanted to go ahead and list the details again anyways, to save people a search.

Saki - beat the game with a Capcom character delivering the final blow to Yami (1000 pts)
Viewtiful Joe - beat the game with a Capcom character delivering the final blow to Yami 3 times (2000 pts)
Ippatsuman - beat the game with a Tatsunoko character delivering the final blow to Yami 3 times (2000 pts)
Daimaoh - beat the game with a Tatsunoko character delivering the final blow to Yami (1000 pts)
Would it benefit anyone here for me to do a longer post on the shop translation and its unlockables? I know there was some talk about it earlier, so...if there's interest, let me know.

Funny thing seems to be that, as a friend of mine, tianyuan (the host of the recent YT vids), can attest, many of the old guard from the Hokuto no Ken scene have since started to move on, to this game. :lol
The game is definitely making nice waves in Japan. I'm REALLY thinking that the reason the numbers aren't there are either because a) the sales records aren't complete or b) Capcom hasn't supplied retailers with enough units of the game yet.
Judging by how I'm hearing many complains of people having to scour different stores to find the game, I wondering if it may be a lil bit of both...

Linkhero1 said:Are import numbers included from websites like play-asia? That's why it was low...they didn't include the 15k imported
Usually, nope.
Except in mostly extra-ordinary circumstances, import numbers are negligible.
Though, I would think TvC may have what it takes to possibly be in that number of rare games that burns up the importing charts, like Ouendan for DS.

I do wish they make a Wii-ware game of that PTX-40A minigame. It's quite good.
Anyone dubbing Tekkaman with his cheesy 70's dub while playing as him?
SPACE LANCE!

I saw this game sitting in a shop in Toronto! I couldn't believe it! So I bought it and put it in the wii and it doesn't work!
I have no idea how to make imports work =(
Someone told me if I put a modchip in the wii then it would work.. is that true? I'm kind of afraid to mod the system though just to play one game. I just want to play this game so bad.
