You'll have to travel a helluva distance to find somebody who likes the Wiimote and Nunchuk as much as we do, but there's no getting away from one fact: Nintendo's unique peripherals weren't made with intricate, combo-heavy fighting games in mind.
Fortunately, when it comes to Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Cross Generation of Heroes, Capcom has two solutions. Solución uno: a simplified control scheme whereby a chain combo can be pulled off with a single button press, and special moves don't require input commands. Solución dos: Tatsunoko vs. Capcom will be compatible with the sleek, delicious slab of plastic that is the Classic Controller for the hardcore set. Not that we'd expect fighting enthusiasts to play this with anything other than a Hori Fighting Stick but, you know.

Being a big Sega fan, the VS games from the Saturn and the Dreamcast were really special to me. Honestly, I have no idea what Tatsunoko is, but the fact that it is a VS game and will have that type of quality that we'd all expect from a VS game, and it's on the wii... can't say I've been this excited about a game release in a LONG time. :)

It's a slap in the face from Capcom if only Japan gets this.
Seriously.

Capcom has said they're trying to bring it over, but it's primarily a licensing rights issue that's making it complicated.
