Kombo: E3 2009: Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All Stars Hands-On

Kombo writes: "Yes folks, the Capcom VS. series is alive and well. It's just been a long time, and this time, it returns with a bunch of the craziest weirdos imaginable. It's pretty much a miracle this game is coming to North America. This one really proves Capcom USA's commitment to their fanbase, but it had to be licensing hell to get this game localized. Tatsunoko owns all the licenses to their own characters in their native Japan, but in North America (and beyond), all their properties are sub-licensed to different companies who had to give clearance to get this game across the Pacific. Needless to say, Capcom did it. Now, does it stand up to the VS. Series classics?

At first you think that perhaps this is an inferior fighter that Capcom is just dropping on Wii to take advantage of the Wii's chronic lack of fighters (just like GameCube and N64 before it). Not even close. Just like the Marvel license before it, Tatsunoko provides nearly endless potential for over-the-top specials thanks to the obscurity of its stock of icons..."
