Marvel Vs Capcom 3 - Who Didn't Make The Cut

AusGamers has an interview up with Marvel Vs Capcom 3 producer, Ryouta Niitsuma, who reveals a few big names from both Marvel and Capcom you definitely won't be seeing in the game, among other interesting morsels of information.

such a shame, MT Framework would have made The Thing look amazing, and I don't even wanna think about how good Nemesis or Tyrant would have looked

[topdawg122]

Would have been cool to see what effects they could do with the Human Torch, but we'll never know.

[Anorexorcist]

I so wanted to settle the argument of who would be supreme and who would win that fight.

[Baka-akaB]

It seems , but take it with a grain of salt , and mostly judging by their comment+one of the shadows of the trailer and logo , that they went for the super skrull instead , the super villain who possess the powers of all the fantastic 4 . That's a rather clever and interesting way , imo .

[Cheeseknight28]

None of the 6 characters they mention are very surprising. Would have been neat to see the Thing though.

Still hoping for Phoenix Wright to make a curveball appearance...

[Bnet343]

Albert Wesker would be a curveball and I'd love to see it happen.

[N4BmpS]

I wouldn't Albert would be a curve ball more like "Oh I knew that was coming Chris is in there" he'd be a welcomed addition definitely curve ball would be Phoenix or Maybe...IDK fill in the blank, I'm rusty on my Capcom characters.

[Redempteur]

if they could make it playable for tatsunoko vs capcom . i ighly doubt they 'll be able to do a phoenix wright character work this time

[N4BmpS]

Chris Redfield was a surprise for many, really the teaser was just like all teasers but more exciting. I'm sure they reveal a lot when E3 rolls around. Not too much though they'll most likely stretch out the character reveals for a good 5 months. Or they'll reveal all those characters in the back ground I know Capt. America, Doom and Dante among others are back there.

[morkendo]

B nice if they add green lantern and the flash

[KingTavy]

lol dude thats DC comics. At least u didnt say batman or superman

[N4BmpS]

Yeah but at least they would be in a mash-up game worth mentioning. Lol But that's another licensing hurdle with DC

[Sam Fisher]

they don't pull a EA or Activision and not put as many or more Characters as the 2nd one. Knowing Capcom they'll probably give us 20 characters, 500micro points or 3$ to UNLOCK the rest of them (they would already be in the game), or make a new addition like a universe edition or something. i lost alot of faith in Capcom this gen....

IMO Capcom hasn't stepped up to the plate this gen so far. lost planet looks okay at most, but most of their success this gen were reinvented old games (not flaming them, infact i love marvel vs capcom), but lets be honest. Capcom doesn't know what to do anymore, in terms of new ideas.

[kraze07]

There's nothing wrong with sticking to the old ways.

[Baka-akaB]

sigh , they told you they've got at least 30 characters .
Even street fighter 4 had 25 characters , super sf4 got 35 , without even being a vs title , and never sold you dlc chars yet .

You guys wanna complain about dlc s ? fine i hate most dlcs as well . But take an hard cold look at almost all fighting games this gen , and you'll see that most of the 360/ps3 had colors or costumes dlcs . How many of them bothered with a free championship or tournament dlc and additional content ?

Imo you are just being negative for the sake of it here , as its common on n4g .

This gen they revived a dead 2d fighting scene , revived their arcade 2d classics on xbla/psn , released games as varied in genre and content as :
lost planet , dead rising , monster hunter , okami , phoenix wright , even puzzle fighter etc etc ...

Nasically they had or tried one major title at least in pretty much every category of games , saves fps .
They even follow popular demand ... people wanted sf3 chars in sf4 ? here they come . people wanted MVC2 back and a sequel ? here they are and comes .

The rest is a matter of taste , as we can't love all of those games , but Capcom did a pretty decent job so far .

[billythepunk]

well they tried with Dark Void (and failed) and attempted to reboot Bionic Commando (arguably new-ish), but again failed.

Blue Castle's Dead Rising 2 looks incredible though, so here's hoping after this, those cats are given free reign under Capcom ownership to create a truly awesome new IP

[morkendo]

lol good one, could not say captain america dude above my first note mention him already!! maybe strider again??

[gameraxis]

when i was playing sf4, and then blazblue, i was saying to myself about sf... i want more characters and party online capabilities.. and its coming out within the month!!!

THEN, i was saying to all my fighting friends online that the ultimate game for me would be a MvC 3... and i was getting a lot of, "...no capcom and marvel split up, they don't have the rights anymore..."(and i agreed) but hearing this NOW is frikken AMAZING... i just hope it looks more like a HD (and better looking, since its on the ps3 and 360) tatsunoko V capcom than a sf4... sf4 looks nuts, but i think we need something different and new with this one! (and i presume due to the fighting style of MvC 1 and 2, the characters need to be a lot smaller to do their WAY over the top moves... CAN'T WAIT to see some gameplay, here's hoping its everything we all want!

basically if the fighting and the characters looks like it/they does in the trailer that was just released, I'm alllllll set! lol

[REDHULKSMASH]

Hulk, Gray Hulk, Red Hulk, ghostrider, the thing, black suit spiderman, mr. Fantastic, and sideburns wolverine. Thor might be cool. Get rid of those little red riding hoods and the people don't know like rubyheart if you have to. You got enough streetfighter characters to throw in, but throw that chick with the dobermans in. Hulk like bad dog with pointy ears.

[Tuxmask55]

I wouldn't mind them using some of the more obscure Marvel characters, maybe some of the older ones such as Ghost Rider, Iron Fist, Thor and/or Namor.

Thoughts?
