Topic: Unofficial Tatsunoko vs. Capcom Thread

After playing for an hour or so, I'm glad I did not get the arcade stick. Playing for awhile I was reminded as to why I don't have many of this type of game. I stink. It's going to take me awhile to get myself up to speed to be any good at this game. On "medium difficulty" (on the star scale) I made it 8 stages into Arcade mode (with Ken the Eagle and Tekkaman). Have no idea if that's good or not, but I'm guessing not. Using the classic controller and the layout is pretty good. They simplified things with the Wiimote and Wiimote+Nunchuck, making (if I read correctly) special moves easier to execute. I may have to give it a try ... since I'm not used to any particular setup, not having played this genre seriously, it may be easy for me to pick up that control scheme.

If anyone wants to whoop my butt (there is an incentive for winning matchups), let me get my Wii back online (changed my WiFi setup) and I'll post my Friend Code.

Gettin it fosho , challengers wanted

So you were able to pick it up at midnight somewhere? Nice!

Mine is on its way now, and will be here this afternoon. I wish I didn't have work and class today...

I'll be picking up my copy this afternoon.

Personally I think it looks like crap. My son on the other hand will probably want it. I´ll wait and see if he sees an ad somewhere... don´t think so whooahahaa.

Sweet lord. This just became an insta-buy!

got em coach , when ever anyones ready for a match let me know

@tails86: I saw your video. After seeing the glorious unboxing, I'm even more psyched about getting the game! I might have to head down to Gamestop here in a few minutes...

Holy goddamn hell, why does everyone play online like they've been practicing for YEARS? o____o 18 matches, 17 losses and 1 disconnection (would have been a loss) Very, very humbling....

Regardless, it's still a fun game. I hope playing the single player modes will actually teach me something, like winning an online match once every 50 tries.

Also, my TvsC code: 0603-7674-1976

You're probably playing against the people who imported the Japanese copy. And I'd always recommnd practicing with the Singleplayer mode first before jumping online in a Fighting game. You'll wanna make sure you got a character you know pretty well before you try to make it in the big leagues.

8 stages in on Medium is pretty good actually. It always takes time to learn the moves in a fighting game, unless you're psychic or somethin'.

I got the game today and it is freaking awesome, it is a little bit better than brawl!!!

And here I thought I could be an all-around fighter like in Brawl, but for this game I might just have to stick with a few characters. The worst match by far was against the Lost Planet mech thing, it trapped me a in a corner and did a move over and over again, and I couldn't get out of it. Laaaaaame! Also, I find that if I go up against anyone using Ryu or Ryu and Chun-Li = insta-loss. Oh, oh, and I think in two of the matches I actually got one of the opponent's characters KO'ed!

Sure, go ahead Gameday.

I can't think of a Capcom game where I ever used more than 4 characters. That might might just be me, though. I love Fighting games, but it's rare that I ever get serious enough with 'em that I'll try to get good with every character.

And if he spams you again, try using an assist. That usually works.

Sure, go ahead Gameday.

Thanks. I have yet to finish the game though. How many forms does that final boss have? I stinks that you don't get to heal up either when it takes a new form. Oh well ... dropping the difficulty down to one star and I'll start from there and work my way up.

G. LIGHTAN (Gold Lightan)
Hi all, I grew up in Japan and watched the transformers hack of an anime called Gold Lightan. I believe this game has that huge gold robot dude if im not mistaken and that was Tatsunoko's foot in the transformer market back in the early 80's which didnd do all too well. But I remember when I was in preschool in japan, I use to make them with paper and scotch tape. You know why that cartoon never made it state side? Cause the robots transformed into cigarette lighters! Gold Lightan! japanese are crazy marketing a cartoon to kids glorifying smoking .. haha bet you guys never knew that! Its like if they came out with a cartoon here called Zippo Fighters
Ill leave you all with this

I am loving this game... I just looked up at the clock and can't believe I've been playing it for two hours already. Good stuff!

The first time I tried to fight the boss, I got stomped pretty badly. But on my 2nd through 5th playthroughs, he's gone down without much of a fight.

So far, I've enjoyed playing Tekkaman and Jun the Swan the most.
