In case you like the game's art like me, here's a gallery with all of what's been released so far. The site has a bunch of other awesome stuff, too. Well worth digging through.

I wonder if Waluigi's appearance is inspired by that guy called Boyacky and the similar characters from related anime series. By the way, just found out that Drake Redcrest (Chibi-Robo, Captain Rainbow) is a homage to Gatchaman, as his Japanese name is Gitchoman (confirmed in this Japanese interview). Drake's appearance seems to be loosely based on Ken the Eagle, he even has that "beak" which is blue rather than yellow in the Japanese version of Chibi-Robo (and Captain Rainbow).

What I was really eager for seeing was the "Tatsunoko" part written in English.
.......
Nooooooooooooo, they killed the seahorse logo!

I read a rather fascinating interview over at The Fighter's Generation, and it talks about what Capcom's doing to the NA Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom. Adding new characters, tweaking the existing characters, redubbing the game, changing the minigames, the online mode...it all sounds great to me, as long as their new dub doesn't blow. XD

Here are new videos, screens and artwork from Comic-con, courtesy of Nintendo Raw. It's so cool that Alex is in the game. I don't think the Street Fighter III cast gets the recognition it should.

Aye, it's about time indeed. SFIII has some cool characters in its own right, and I like Alex more than Zangief. I'm also pleased that Batsu made it in - the Rival Schools franchise also tends to be ignored. A shameless plug, but here's my article where I speculate what Capcom characters I'd like to see pop up in TvC.

Anyone remember seeing that article saying a TvsC sequel would be PS360 only? Guess what. They lied

There's more to that article than merely TvC being planned as a Wii-only franchise if sales are good. Turns out it was a retake on Siliconera's interview with producer Ryota Niitsuma in which Niitsuma was asked reader questions. Here's a list of details gleamed from the interview (from my site):

And here is part 3 of Capcom-unity's character bios. This episode: Saki (from Quiz Nanairo Dreams) and Yatterman (from Yatterman) Took long enough for this, eh? I thought Capcom-unity had given up on it.

Heh, I was looking for it the other day, actually. I thought they'd be beyond 2 by now.

Episode 4 of the character bios. This episode: Morrigan (Darkstalkers) and Doronjo (Yatterman) Although [Morrigan] has a gorgeous new 3D model in Tatsunoko Vs Capcom, Capcom made it easy to spot her in earlier games by leaving her sprite basically unchanged for over a decade. This came out relatively quickly. Maybe the next episode will be several weeks away to even things out.

Ouch. Glad to see Capcom's not above poking fun at itself for its sprite recycling.

According to GoNintendo, Phoenix Wright and Franziska von Karma were originally intended to be included in the game, but they had to take them out because of... a weird reason. You can read about it yourself at the link. But it sounds like they're still interested in including him somehow.

Frankly I'm glad he wasn't added to the game. As much as I love the Ace Attorney series, there are much better candidates from the Capcom camp to consider.
