Tatsunoko VS. Capcom Announced - First Details

According to Famitsu, Capcom has announced the new VS series for arcade.
It is called "Tatsunoko VS. Capcom Cross Generation of Heroes."
As the title suggests, this time the game will not feature Marvel characters. Instead, it will feature the characters from animes produced by Tatsunoko Pro.
At this time the only characters introduced are Ryu and Chun-Li from Capcom and Gatchaman and Casshern from Tatsunoko Pro (both are originally produced in early 70's).

Gatchaman is mostly known in stateside as either "Battle of the Planets" or "G Force Guardians of Space."

Casshern was adapted for live action film in 2004.

The game will feature 2-on-2 tag battle system with usual "Aerial Attack," "Switch Attack," "Assist Attack," and "Counter" along with still-unknown new systems.

More info after the link.

as I said before, capcom if you want my money, build the game from the ground up on both consoles instead of have a lead platform (or just make PS3 lead) and go add Dante to the playable character list

Guwapo776566d ago

Sounds good. I hope it's something close to Marvel vs Capcom 2...only better.

hazardman6566d ago

the game looks sick..i hope it comes out on consoles as well..one of the guys looks like Mega Man

chrstphr5676566d ago

Hmmm. The Game looks cell shaded. I wounder how that's gonna turn out.

snappywave6566d ago

My bad.. it's 3d background 2d sprites a la MVC2 but with higher resolution.

I hope I'm right.

snappywave6566d ago (Edited 6566d ago )

nope it's completely in 3d.

In an interview, SEGA Sound Team lead composer Tomoya Ohtani revealed that Sonic’s global music success didn’t come from chasing trends overseas.

I think this is how Japanese devs need to think. Catering to the west is a terrible idea. I personally, seek out Japanese developed games because they bring a unique experience to gaming. They just stand out more that way.

Eonjay50d ago (Edited 50d ago )

What do you mean when you say this is how they 'need to think'. I understand the idea of wanting to do them without worrying about Western sensibilities but I also think a Japanese dev can do whatever the hell they want. They don't have to 'think' the way some westerner in a forum says they have to think. You think you are giving someone a compliment but you are really being weird. Its not about who you are but what you do. Last year's GOTY was a western studio that made a JRPG. You didn't see any Japanese people claim that a studio in a Western company had to think a certain way. And yes, I do understand thats not what you were saying but I think we should always challenge our own viewpoints. Personally I have love the unique experiences that devs in Japan bring and I agree they don't need to cater to Western sensibilities. I only take issue with you saying how they need to think. Thats dangerous.

What he’s referring to is when a company like Atlus does a game and one of the characters per se ; call one of the other kids a retard , they shouldn’t have to censor the final product because of snowflakes all the way in America that are constantly ranting on twitter . None of these folks are real fans and only look for stuff to cry about . If you start pandering too much they end up taking more than a leg and an arm . Japanese humour is so funny but I hate when it’s censored because of “ western sensibilities “

Everyone understood the meaning behind the message but you. “I think” you need to go to the mirror, look yourself in the eyes call yourself an idiot sandwich.

Profchaos50d ago

The sonic music is iconic the mega drive games were some of the best on the system but i wouldn't say they were free of western influence especially since 3 was composed in part by Michael Jackson

But honestly most of the crush 40 soundtrack music lives in my head rent free

Sonic 2 Emerald Hill ❤️

drizzom49d ago

Please. Doesn't hold a candle to Chemical Plant Zone.

Stopac50d ago

Uhhh that's a strange thing for him to say. Even in the interview he admits to listening to a lot of western music.

NotoriousWhiz50d ago

Inspiration and trend chasing are not the same thing.

Eonjay50d ago

I think its strange that the topic of Western catering comes up with Sonic at all. Sometimes things just are what they are.

TheCaptainKuchiki50d ago

Authentic japanese spirit is the right path
