17	* CommonKnowledge: Many believe that the ''Marvel vs. Capcom'' games are {{Fake Crossover}}s, but on the contrary, Marvel acknowledged the continuity of these crossovers (alongside ''X-Men: Children of the Atom'' and ''Marvel Super Heroes'') enough to assign them to their own official Marvel universe called [[http://marvel.wikia.com/Earth-30847 "Earth-30847."]]
18	* CompleteMonster: ComicBook/{{Ultron}} in ''YMMV/MarvelVsCapcomInfinite''. See that page for details.
19	* DamnYouMuscleMemory: Wolverine's movesets have slight changes to them from game to game. For example, his divekick in ''VideoGame/XMenVsStreetFighter'' resembles his divekick from ''VideoGame/MarvelSuperHeroes'', but his divekick in ''VideoGame/MarvelSuperHeroesVsStreetFighter'' oddly enough both resembles his straight down dive stomp from ''VideoGame/XMenChildrenOfTheAtom'' AND is mapped to a different command altogether.
20	* FanNickname: ''VideoGame/{{Strider}} Hiryu'''s actual name is Hiryu. That said, [[IAmNotShazam most just call him Strider]].
21	* GatewaySeries: Those who are fans of Marvel Comics are likely to be introduced to Capcom characters in the games and vice versa.
22	* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: A mixture of this and ValuesDissonance when it comes to analyzing the popularity of the ''Marvel Vs'' series in the United States compared to Japan. In the U.S., ''Marvel Vs.'' is held up as one of the "pillar games" of the MediaNotes/FightingGameCommunity, with ''2'' and ''3'' specifically maintaining engaging competitive scene years after their release. In Japan, while the series is like, it's viewer more-so as a "Kusoge Game", an unbalanced game that while having an active scene isn't treated as a "serious" competitive game.
23	* PortingDisaster: The early ''Marvel vs. Capcom'' games were usually ported to the [=PlayStation=] 1 and Sega Saturn, the former not having enough memory for an arcade-perfect port. ''X-Men vs. Street Fighter'' and ''Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter'' in particular were stripped of their tag-team mechanics as a result (though they tried making up for it with Cross Over Mode, and the second character could still appear for assists). The Saturn ports manage to avert this via the [=4MB=] RAM cartridge, which allowed ports that were at least closer to the arcade version, and the Dreamcast port of ''Marvel vs. Capcom: Clash of Super Heroes'' is the first one to avert this trope by being almost arcade perfect right out of the box.
24	** That said, the original [=PlayStation=] version of ''[=MVC1=]'' did come with a few gameplay quirks which made it stand out from a mechanical standpoint to compensate for the lack of proper tag mechanics. The biggest one by far was allowing players to cancel into a Hyper Combo from nearly anything, including specials (being able to cancel from specials into supers was not properly introduced in the series until ''Marvel vs. Capcom 3'' did so nearly a full decade after) and other Hyper Combos (making it mechanically similar to Delayed Hyper Combos introduced in ''[=MVC2=]'').
25	* SpiritualSuccessor:
26	** ''[[VideoGame/ThePunisherCapcom The Punisher]]'', ''VideoGame/XMenMutantApocalypse'', and ''[[VideoGame/MarvelSuperHeroesWarOfTheGems War of the Gems]]'' all served as the beginning of the relationship between Marvel and Capcom. These three titles predated ''Marvel vs. Capcom'' and are often bundled with the MVC titles in arcade machines.
27	** MVC was the first major crossover fighter. It predates other heavy hitters in the genre like ''[[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros Smash Bros.]]'', ''[[VideoGame/MortalKombatVsDCUniverse Mortal Kombat vs. DC]]'', and ''VideoGame/StreetFighterXTekken''.
28	* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: The rosters of the pre-''[=MVC3=]'' games are something of a time-capsule of 90s-era Marvel. This occurred during a time where ''ComicBook/XMen'' was at the height of its popularity and before ''ComicBook/TheAvengers'' had really taken off in the mid-to-late 2000s. This is reflected by the X-Men completely dominating the rosters. [[Characters/MarvelComicsPsylocke Psylocke]], in particular, was something of a mainstay throughout the majority of these games. While she still maintains popularity, to modern eyes, it would seem strange that she made more appearances than other popular Marvel characters. Most interestingly enough, [[ComicBook/TheMightyThor Thor]] was never included in any of the rosters before ''3'' despite being one of the major founding members of the Avengers.
