1* CompleteMonster: [[BigBad Bastion]] is an [[AIIsACrapshoot AI]] who claims to defend humanity against mutants but is really just a psychopath. After being freed from SHIELD captivity by his Prime Sentinel minions, Bastion devises a new scheme to destroy mutantkind. Bastion hires the Brotherhood to attack Xavier's school and uses that attack as a distraction so his Sentinels can kidnap Forge, a mutant who can invent anything. Bastion proceeds to torture Forge, forcing him to build a device that neutralizes mutant powers and then outfits all of his Sentinels with that device. Bastion ultimately plans to use this device to depower the world's mutant population, [[FinalSolution so that he can easily kill them off]]. Though Bastion claims he is [[NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist guided by good intentions]], he is really just a sadistic [[FantasticRacism bigot]].
2* GoodBadBugs:
3** One bug on Sabretooth may allow you to throw your opponent without actually making contact with them - though often without any actual damage. Maybe he developed telekinesis as a secondary mutation.
4** Beast can do the same.
5** There were tons of 'em. One such bug transported both players permanently into the dimension Nightcrawler travels to in his Lvl 4 Super. This renders the opponent incapable of attacking until either the end of the round or the super attack is done again. A more benign but infinitely more awesome version has both players continue to fight in the psychedelic realm for the remainder of the match.
6** The levels have several 'glitch points' where the player can breach the {{Invisible Wall}}s - most characters can charge, jump, teleport or even ''walk'' into them.
7* OlderThanTheyThink: ''Next Dimension'' was a superhero fighting game with a lengthy, cinematic-style Story Mode years before ''VideoGame/InjusticeGodsAmongUs'' won mass acclaim for doing the same thing.
8* SpiritualSuccessor: Given how heavily it cribs from Capcom titles, it could be argued that it was the closest thing there was to a truly 3D (rather than TwoAndAHalfD) ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom'' game.
