Watch Tatsunoko vs. Capcom played at EVO

By Spencer . August 12, 2008 . 6:52am

This past weekend Tatsunoko vs. Capcom made its debut in the USA at the EVO 2008 Championship series. Capcom chose to make EVO a test location, a smart choice considering the caliber of 2D fighting prowess at the tournament. The clip below doesn’t even have all the announced characters. Gold Lightan is notably absent. The video does bring back memories of Marvel vs. Capcom with the Aerial Rave notice and the character combinations. Ryu/Casshan and Chun-Li/Yatterman are shown in the video below.

Capcom still hasn’t confirmed or rejected a Tatsunko vs. Capcom release in the USA. The quality of the game looks like something Capcom USA will eventually release in North America even if it means swapping characters due to licensing issues.

    There were rumors about a new MVC stemming from Marvel’s comments at SDDC. I could definitely see character swaps in this case.

    I’m guessing TVC will get PS2/Wii ports.

    I was worried that it’d be very floaty feeling like other 3D fighters, but it looks like it’ll be as fast as the 2D ones.
