Tatsunoko vs Capcom Wii
According to Famitsu magazine in Japan, Capcom are porting Tatsunoko vs Capcom: Cross Generation of Heroes onto Wii.
Similar to other "vs" titles, it's a 2D beat-em-up featuring characters from Capcom's back catalog facing off against some from Tatsunoko Production.
Tatsunoko is an animation company, well known in Japan. They've worked on things like Battle of the Planets and Neon Genesis Evangelion, although neither of these will feature in the game. Some characters to be expected are listed below:
- Ryu (SF2)
- Chun-Li (SF2)
- Batsu Ichimonji (Rival Schools: United By Fate)
- Alex (SF3)
- Morrigan Aensland (Darkstalkers)
- Soki (Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams)
- Rock Volnutt (Mega Man Legends)
- PTX-40A (Lost Planet: Extreme Conditions)
- Ken the Eagle (Science Ninja Team Gatchaman)
- Casshan (Neo-Human Casshan)
- Tekkaman (Tekkaman: The Space Knight)
- Yatterman-1
- Hurricane Polymar
- Gold Lightan (Golden Warrior Gold Lightan)
- Doronjo (Yatterman)
- Karas
- Daimao (Hakushon Daimaou)
Not many familiar faces there to me personally, but it's still likely to be popular among fans of the genre. Capcom USA are currently evaluating whether or not to bring this over to North America.

They really should just make an SNK vs Capcom 3 or a new Marvel vs Capcom. Those games were da' bomb on Dreamcast and even GameCube.

What? No Mega Man?

I hope they bring it to the US. This has to be one of the few Capcom VS games where they're up a against a company I DON'T recognize and there's nothing better than using some of your favorite capcom characters to KO the crap out of a bunch of characters you've never seen before (just in my personal opinion Capcom OWNS Marvel).

If Capcom USA is smart, they will bring this out for US as well. This game is the saving grace for the Wii due to the lack of a SFIV port.

Wow! Like Smash Bros. By the way, I like the new home page Wii's World.
