Tatsunoko vs. Roll

by JC Fletcher { Oct 9th 2008 at 4:20PM }

The big announcement at Capcom's Tatsunoko vs. Capcom stage event involved two new characters, one from each of the companies from which the cast of the game is drawn. On the Tatsunoko side, Jun the Swan from Gatchaman. On the Capcom side, Mega Man's sister, Roll! Strangely, this isn't Roll Caskett from Mega Man Legends, from whence this game's Mega Man originates; rather, this is the classic Roll. With her broom.

1up's James Mielke took in a playable demo of the Wii version of Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Cross Generation of Heroes at TGS, and basically raved about it, saying that it "may just be the neo-2D fighter to beat in the upcoming months." He praises the admirable performance of the Classic Controller for the game, as well.

@ blackbird
something about the licensing fees and/or copyright issues

Rōru-chaaaaaaan!

Classic Roll is fine, Marvel VS Capcom 2 also had a mix of Classic and Legends characters. And I just like her better.

LISTEN. Unless this game is 100% confirmed for the US, I DON'T WANT TO FREAKING HEAR ABOUT IT. This is pure torture. You are killing me.

You can always import it and run it with homebrew, or just, pirate it with homebrew.

There are ways, on which they can lose money.

Capcom is working on localizing it, so everyone calm down.

CJLopez @ Oct 9th 2008 4:56PM

rikthagreat @ Oct 11th 2008 2:18PM

anyone know how many fighters this game is having

leonus11 @ Oct 9th 2008 7:13PM

homebrew may be legal to some point but you are just a bad influence. i ABHOR pirating and don't think anyone else should do it! DEVS work hard for these games and shouldn't have to be worrying about their HARD WORK being pirated (no matter how BAD the game sucks)! don't mean to offend you but please! DO NOT PREMOTE OR INCOURAGE PIRACY. thank you

I think your nose should spend less time in Capcom's butt and more time in an English textbook.

TWOO DEE @ Oct 10th 2008 10:37PM

@sixtyfps
the kid's heart is in the right place

and he's right; pirating sucks - get a job

leonus11 @ Oct 9th 2008 11:31PM

@ sixtyfps

likewise asshole. then again if you was the one making a game i'm pretty damn certain you'd be the one pissed off about people pirating your games. oh and you should spend more time in the bathroom. i can smell you from here! do yourself a favor, stop being a virgin and get some more butt buddy. i can see why girls wouldn't date a nerd like you. oppz!! did your self esteem drop? my bad. NOT!!
