This game will be 2v2 character fights which will include, assists, team combos, and team ultras.

MvC3 Update

Comic-Con had a live stream that can be seen here: COMIC-CON USTREAM. At Comic-Con, Capcom-Unity had a interview with Marvel vs. Capcom 3's producer, Ryota Niitsuma. The video is a hour long or longer, so here is whats important.

• Ryota Niitsuma confirmed that these characters will NOT be in Marvel vs. Capcom 3. Phoenix Wright, Emma Frost, Daredevil, Gene from God Hand, Ghost Rider and Punisher.

• Ghost Rider was on the list of potential characters up until the end, but didn't make the cut and Punisher wasn't included because he was too similar to Chris Redfield. They developers were careful about not having characters who would overlap too much.

• Niitsuma didn't rule out more Comic-Con MvC3 announcements — although he said this before Thor and Amaterasu were confirmed.

• The current character select screen is not completely indicative of what the final character screen will look like. So counting the available slots won't get you far.

• Each stage is tied to at least some of the characters in the game. Later, Niitsuma was asked if that means Mega Man will be in the game because of the Mega Man Legends stage. He said he wouldn't go back on what he said previously, but fans will have to wait and see.

• Air dashing will be as similar to MvC2 as possible. Not every character will have one, but it will be close to what was in the previous game as far as how many fighters can perform it.

• An arcade version isn't planned, but if the reception to the game is good, an arcade release might pan out.

• Ryota recommended Ryu and Captain America as good characters to start off to learn the basics, but said that you should choose fighters based on if you like them and if their style of play fits you. He added that the game isn't that difficult to learn, so you should be OK using most of the roster.

• The 'Take You For a Ride' song might be returning. It's a popular tune and they did a few new arrangements on it, so we'll see if it ends up in the game.

• Capcom realizes the timer is running out quickly on players in these early builds, usually before they can K.O. someone — but the game is still being balanced and they're aware of this issue. Basically, if it continues to be a problem as the game progresses, expect a change.

• Trish is an advanced character and isn't recommended for beginning players.

Here Comes New Challengers!

A scan of the arcade flyer for Super Street Fighter 4's arcade release may be hinting at new characters being added to the game, as the text "Here comes new challengers?!" is shown near the bottom. Ryan "Gootecks" Gutierrez posted back in May that he heard from a "strong source" downloadable content (DLC) characters would be added to SSF4. Capcom's Yoshinori Ono has made statements saying it's possible from a technological standpoint as well. Super Street Fighter 4 arcade location tests start this weekend in Japan, we shall soon find out what this is all about!



MARVEL VS CAPCOM 3
Six new characters were announced for MvC3 to show at Comic-Con.

Marvel: Thor, Dr. Doom, Super Skrull
Capcom: Amaterasu, Chun-Li, Trish

SUPER STREET FIGHTER IV ARCADE TESTING

Capcom is releasing arcade units of Super Street Fighter IV in Japan to a few selected arcades to be tested at.

• Hey Hirose in Akihabara: July 23 - 25
• High Tech Sega Avion in Osaka: July 30 - August 1
• Plaza Capcom Kichijoji in Tokyo: August 6 - 8

The arcade version will not be a straight port of what's currently available on the PS3/360, they will have new added things a few tweaks here and there. New and additional characters have been rumored to make come out, but we will shortly find out if that is true or not. There are also a few new screens available where you can see some additional statistics, like how many battles you've played in and the current match record.

New Street Fighter?

At EVO 2010, Ono the producer of Street Fighter made a announcement saying he would be showing something new that everyone will want to buy in two weeks, this will be shown at Comic-Con July 22-25.



Yoshinori will be speaking on the Street Fighter panel at Comic-Con, and the itinerary might offer some clue as to what he plans on announcing at the show. It reads:

12:00-1:00 Street Fighter Mania!: SSFIV and Beyond! — Producer Super Street Fighter IV producer Yoshinori Ono shares his thoughts on SSFIV and presents his exciting vision for the future of the franchise. Experience why everyone can’t get enough of Street Fighter! Featuring Seth Killian, Street Fighter special adviser. Followed by a Q&A session. Room 25ABC

Also there have been rumors of a new versus series (Tekken vs Street Fighter) also there are rumors for DLC when the arcade version comes out for SSFIV that will include more characters (R.Mika, Yun, Elena, Rolento, etc.) My guess is as good as yours. Super Street Fighter IV for PC? Super Street Fighter IV Turbo? What could it be??
