A "cool cat" as well in these forums, as the old folks would say. A DarkStalkers fan, you say? Lovely. I loved everyone on there, but I suppose Oboro/Bishamon was a favorite. The competition and community were very nice back then, next to the Virtua Fighter community.
Besides the obvious Morrigan and Felicia, my favorite was always Lord Raptor. There's just something really cool about an undead rockstar who can turn his limbs into saws and whatnot.

I was also pretty fond of Huitzil but he didn't make the cut in Vampire Saviour, at least for the version included in Resurrection.

Should Capcom produce more IP FGs, such as this? I do miss Star Gladiator, Tech Romancer, and Rival Schools. There were simply much more variety back then in this genre for me. I miss those days.

I'd be down for more unique FG IPs from Capcom but they'd probably be a hard sell in this day and age.

Speaking of Rival Schools, I hope the inclusion of Akira in Street Fighter 5 sparks interest in the series and Capcom can test the waters for it by releasing a compilation and potentially even a new game if it performs well.

Oh my goodness. TMNT!? DLC is just getting better and better.
I'm not saying it's going to happen, i'm just saying that it would be weird if it didnt since they clearly have them license for it in the game already lol

I was always curious about you and so as the others here. I guess, in the sense of gaming tastes. What kind of games grab you the most?
I mainly prefer games that are multiplayer, ironically enough. MMOs, Fps games, stuff like that.

MMOs in particular were a big part of my childhood(First Lego Universe in 1st-2nd grade, then Pirate101 later on in elementary, and so on) so I have a bit of a soft spot for that genre in particular.

I think DC Universe was my first MMO, which I've found the ambushing, me being ganged up on from having top tier equipment/levels in the MMO beta stages were pretty hilarious. What was more hilarious for me was being on the villain side later in the MMO updates and throwing cars at the hero hand quarters, and than quickly flying away at much higher magnitudes. About 20 players were gunning for me in the air for being a nuisance to them. Such uncontrollable laugher on my part.

I should revisit Doom as well. I've only finished the old school versions back then.

Editing is pain and I won't be able to finish this video until I get home tomorrow. There are gonna be some audio issues with it, so please bear with me here, I'm still learning how to do stuff, ha ha.

I also sound nervous as heck because performing is new to me, so I, uh, don't sound great.

Here's a preview if you want, though (WARNING: It is kinda loud):

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Honestly the voice isn't the worst. It sounds rather good for a cat voice honestly.

I don't think even actual insiders know who's coming. They came down hard after Terry.
So why are you adjusting your predictions?

Why the Pac emote?

Some other third thing.

Really tho, I don't got any insider info.


I just think people are kinda sleepin' on Capcom after the last batch. People are 100% sure that Capcom's out of the running now due to the Mii costume drops, but Sakurai went out of his way to mention "It was because Rise", which frankly, he didn't have to do that, in fact, I kinda find him pointing out the abundance of a company's costumes odd, if anything, since he had never really done that before.


And coupled with that theory over in the Newcomer thread that the backgrounds of the next 2 characters will be Pink/Red and Green... and E3 maybe giving us a double reveal....

Okay Mr. "Not an insider".

Thanks for sharing your "theory" that the next character is Dante from the Shin Megami Tensei series.

I hope I still got it to learn such long and catastrophic combos. Does it have controller motion like with the traditional standard of fighting games? I'll buy it by the end of the month. :colorful:
Actually, as someone who just started playing it, while the game does have a very Marvel vs. Capcom style of fighting, there are actually no directional combos like a traditional fighter. It actually has the "hold-direction press attack button" system that Smash has, weirdly enough.

I think the voice is pretty endearing in its current state, honestly. Looking forward to seeing the full thing.

Considering that I have Blade Strangers in my possession to this day, controller motions aren't the all be all.

I sure would like a Gundam Extreme Versus or Virtual On game for this system.

I also just think it'd be funny for multiple reasons.


You'd have:


Smash Ultimate, featuring Dante from the Devil May Cry series


Smash Ultimate, featuring Demi-Fiend, whose game was featuring Dante from the Devil May Cry series.


And ending the pass on Demi-Fiend would be a funny callback to how the pass started, with Joker, both characters from Atlus, but both from drastically different series.

Dante and Demi-Fiend.

Let's call this Double D theory.
