Capcom: Marvel vs. Capcom 3 not part of MvC 2 deal, Tatsunoko vs Capcom not heading for US any time soon |
Ó
Just because we're getting Marvel vs Capcom 2 on PSN and XBLA doesn't mean we're also gonna be seeing Marvel vs Capcom 3 on those online services any time soon. This was revealed by Capcom's Seth Killian, who clarified that the MvC2 licensing deal doesn't cover MvC3:
The short answer is no, that's not any part of this deal. What we're hoping is that if people get really juiced about this title, and we can show Marvel that there's a lot of heat behind this, then they'll open up the door for us to do something with '3,' which is something we'd love to do.
Licensing problems are also keeping Tatsunoko vs Capcom from crossing over into North America. Unlike Japan, where rights for the Tatsunoko characters are held by only one company, 13 separate companies hold the rights in the US. This is an old problem actually. Super Robot Taisen fans will note that the same problem has been keeping the series' main games from getting US releases.
There is a bit of good news, at least. According to Killian, Capcom is also thinking about releasing MvC2-branded arcade sticks. "It's a discussion ... we would love to make it happen," he said. "If you saw the 'leak' of those MadCatz sticks, that was actually B.S. That was a complete fabrication, but it's something we would love to do."

So basically Marvel wants to see $$$$$$$$$. As if they haven't been making a killing with all the movies and games coming out. Well, I'm buying MVC2 even if I may not play it a buttload. But if anything Capcom should do its own Vs games without other companies characters. Street Fighter vs Darkstalkers, etc., any of that would work for me. Besides I use the Marvel characters cause' the lot of them are cheap and make better assist characters for unblockable set-ups and what not. I don't use them because I just luvz Marvel comics. I'd be content with a 56 character roster full of Capcom's own. That's just me though, I know some dudes might just get a hardon for Wolverine and Spiderman, etc.
Ever heard of Capcom Fighting Jam?
Ugh yes, but bad example, and I'm talking about Vs games here. Capcom Fighting Jam was horrible. That was a case of laziness right there. Don't know what Capcom was thinking on that one, they can do MUCH better. The Vs games stand out cause' they're more accessible for newbies and have GREAT presentation to draw crowds of gamers.
any good ol ps2 ps1 or pc-usb arcade stick will work on PS3 via ps port to usb converter.
Guess I have to buy the game now just to show support for a third one. I loved MvC2 but I didn't really care all that much about it being re released. Imo it was simply too cheap, after a while didn't require much skill to abuse things (like Magneto lol) I never really used the Marvel characters though, it was the Capcom ones I liked, like what bandit said, I'd love to have an all Capcom roster fighting game that they actually tried on with a ton of characters. Or even better, Capcom vs SNK 3 would be the sex. Just need fans to show they really want it and Capcom will jump on the money.
