Nintendo Wii Fanboy

SO instead of SF4 the Wii gets a Capcom VS instead?

Seems like a good deal to me.

Is that a Gatchaman character I see? How freaking cool is that?!?!

A Wii based / compatible arcade board? That's a new one and is interesting because the Wii hardware is more than up to the task of doing some really nice arcade stuff . I wonder if the board is modded in any way that the Homebrew sceen might be able to use? Reverse engineering is always nice to see.

Sheesh, a little research, please. A quick search for Tatsunoko brings some awsome names in, like G-Force (in the picture above), Meteoro, Neon Genesis Evangelion and Robotech (aka Macross).

If I was a fan of fighting games I'd be pretty exited with posibility of a fight between an Eva and a Varitech.

False hope article title raises false hope

It says nothing about a release outside of Japan which is the real problem. The rights to the Tatsunoko products is widely spread in regions outside of Japan which is what makes this so complex. I'd get this game in a heartbeat of it came out in North America but I'd prefer to see it on the PS3 because I prefer the PS3's controller for fighting games. I guess I could get by with my Wii classic controller but either way, this is a must buy!
FYI: this game uses the new vs engine that would be used for the rumored Marvel VS Capcom 3.

"past titles such as Marvel vs Capcom 2 and the near-perfect Capcom vs SNK 2"

Marvel vs Capcom2 was waaaay better that SNK2

Ok which one of you optimistic fanboys edited the Wiki article?

It isn't CONFIRMED for the Wii yet. So it can't be listed as a Wii game.

Marvel vs Capcom 2 was nothing compared to the first one, I was disappointed when I bought the second one, just like Capcom vs SNK. Plus the Arcade versions are better (thanks to MAME and X-Arcade).

I hope they put the samurai pizza cats on there, man that was a
great show.

Capcom has already basically said that there isn't a chance in Hell this game is coming to the US due to licensing tangles.
That said, if it DOES come to the Wii, it's a Day 1 import for me! I think this looks far superior to SFIV, anyway.

CvS2 is ass. A quick perusal of YouTube high-level matches will confirm. #1 turtlefest.

DC MvC2 is perfect, aside from super minor speed diff and they took a couple glitches out that 100% does not affect the game ever. Dumb scrubs.

MvC1 is as "broken" as MvC2 btw.

This game isn't likely to even to leave Japan, as it's characters are mixed up in all sorts of foreign licensing messes. Rumor has it though that Capcom is working with Marvel to have this one brought to the states with Marvel Comics characters swapped out for the Tatsunoko ones.

If that happens and this comes to the States as Marvel Vs Capcom 3, I will officially deem the Wii the greatest console on the planet.

All I have to say about Tatsunoko:

Tekkaman Blade and SoulTaker.

SOLD!

If go searching capcom unity it seems hey have gotten the permission from all the rights holders of involve parties except gatcha man.Go look it up you'll find it. So all they need is permission for gatchaman.They had the game schedule for thier Evo kiosk and gatchaman was only one missing for the reasons stated above.

:( Guess I'm one of the few people that did like CvSNK2.
Ah well, to each their own.

Just in case you don't believe me here is alink showing tatsunoko vs capcom available to play at Evo which basically means it is coming to the states sooner or later.

Man, Cashiern, thr robot hunter, one of the inspiration on Megaman (clearly, the strongest one was astroboy, which, they should add to this game), that was one of my fav animes, more than speed racer, and the live action movie was awesome!!!!

I do hope this game comes to Wii

I was really excited about that, but according to Wikipedia, ther will me nothing form Evangelion, neither shinji, nor the EVAs, and that makes me sad... (T_T)
It seems that the half of the Capcom characters are form SF, which is no surprise from Cap, but I'd really like to see more chars from their other franchises like Resident Evil, Dino Crisis or Devil May Cry and if they ever could put Killer7 or even Phoenix Wright(like this :D http://dragonsgirl.freeblog.hu/files/Jatek/Phoenix_Wright_0_b.jpg) it would be heaven...

(Hay, jan_halmes, nice idea... ^^)
