It looks like all of Frank West's supers are refs to other Capcom characters. The ones we see in the gameplay trailers are Mega Man, Cracker Jack, and a Servbot mask. Nice.
I cannot wait for this game to come out.
"The difference between reality and fiction is that fiction has to make sense." - Tom Clancy, paraphrasing Mark Twain.
To reiterate, I wish Proto man was in the game, or Bass, or Both, gonna have to wait til' a sequel, I guess...
But, Zero and Joe are cool too, although I get an "Anti-Hero" vibe from Joe, was he an Anti-Hero in the source material?
Wow, the game tried so hard to avoid having two Kens, and now there's two Joes.
Speaking of which, what would happen if those two had a conversation, the Anti-Hero talking with a Comic Relief Hero...

Zero seems to have a Ken-ish vibe. Namely from the flaming shoryuken and the red... clothes? Casing? Fuselage? Armor? That thing he wears. Or is.
Crap. I was originally going to team up Tekkaman Blade and Mega Man Volnutt when I got the game, but with Zero announced, I'm conflicted! Mega Man teaming up with Zero, or Mega Man teaming up with Tekkaman Blade? What do I choose!?!
I wonder if Tekkaman Classic's "SPACE LANCE" Meme will have ascended, probably not...

Is this the thing with the Eagle Riders Battle Of The Planets Science Ninja Team Gatchaman characters?
Another fun observation: Capcom Vs Whatever has now brought us two Mega Men and two Zeroes, and they happen to cross four subseries: MM Mega Man in MvC, MMX Zero in TvC, MMZ Zero in SvC, and MML Mega Man in TvC. Now we need some MMBN and MMSF representation, and maybe MMZX, before we can...

^ That gave me an acronym headache...I understood what all of them meant, but damn.
...and call me shallow, but the addition of Zero, my first favorite Capcom character, has jumped this up several notches on my to-get list.

The blind man walking off the cliff is not making a leap of faith.
Can we get Harpuia and Phantom in a team? And Leviathan and Fefnir?
Anybody have any teams they want to try out?
The Joes. Or Maybe VJ and Frank West.
You know what would be epic?
Nintendo vs. Capcom.
Better yet, Konami and Nintendo vs. Capcom and Marvel, or something along those lines.
Konami, Nintendo, Sega, and DC vs. Capcom, SNK, Tatsunoko, and Marvel?

Um, wrong thread.
You're looking for Capcom vs. You Decide!
And besides, lots of people would be disoriented with all the "Stop Having Fun" Guys, seriously, can you imagine this: "NO ITEMS, AKUMA ONLY, FINAL DESTINATION"?

This is going to be so much fun.
As Yatterwan would put it - AI-CHAN LOVE!!!!
Oh, and Seth said more stuff to come. :D
Btw, Ai-chan is voiced by Eri Kato, who did Kagami, and the new announcer is Jeff Manning, Master Hand and narrator of Smash 64.
Death is a companion. We should cherish Death as we cherish Life.
More stuff to come?
What more could come? The release date is nearby! What could they possibly put in that could surprise us?
just, y'know, whatever
Amaterasu. I mean, they even have a boss from okami as the final boss.
but i would buy 10 copies if they put Gene (godhand) in.

this thing still here?
If Amaterasu is in, then I'll complain they didn't add in Waka or Oki... Nah, I'm kidding, Amaterasu would be fine... Although her moveset would have to involve the Reflectors, Rosaries, Glaives, and Celestial Brush techniques, that'd be really difficult to implement... Then again, Rock has several of his weapons from the gameplay footage I've seen...
Alright, I am definitely trying out Frank West when I get this game. He's so oddball I can't help but feel amused by him.
Unrelated note, my local Arcade Infinity has a Tv C Arcade Cabinet. This makes me a happy camper.
For who I'd like in another Capcom vs. Whatever, I wouldn't mind seeing more obscure characters in these games.

Kind of a dork
I'm only sad about the lack of Showerhead supermoves.

Vandal my user page if ya don't mind.
TV commercial for the game. So happy that Capcom's making an effort to promote this game outside of Internet word-of-mouth.
Don't have it preordered, but will definitely get it Day 1.

Joe the Condor and Zero
confirmed. And it's Zero from Mega Man X, too.
