We had a chance to talk with Gamespot's inimitable Ricardo Torres for the first look at the delightfully awesome Tatsunoko Vs Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars.
The article has a bunch of good info and some great gameplay videos (never underestimate my Ken the Eagle! Never!), so check it out.
Also take special note of this:
The most interesting factor in Tatsunoko's US conversion is Capcom's approach to determining how to handle content in the US game. Given the success and general positive reaction to the fan community's feedback throughout Street Fighter IV's development, the publisher is keeping its ear to the ground to hear what its community would like to see in the US version of the game. Obviously not everything that's going to get asked will make it in, we're still going to suggest that the entire Darkstalkers cast be added anyway, but, considering the impact community feedback had on Street Fighter IV, this is a unique opportunity for fans to make themselves heard.
Word! This release was made possible with your support, and we've gotten a lot of great feedback already, but be sure to tell us your thoughts.
Honestly, I've been playing the imported version for months now, and I'd be content with a straight port (yes, the game is that good), but the fact that Capcom USA is going the extra mile with this is really top-notch.
Cyberlink420As for new characters...hmm...I'd REALLY like to see Kyosuke from SoulTaker, partially because I think he'd have a really interesting playstyle, but mostly because the theme song is so damn catchy. On the Capcom side, Gene from God Hand would be a good choice both because he fits well in a fighting game scenario and because you wouldn't expect him.
