XZero Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Don't know if anyone on this board picked one up yet, but I had a couple of questions about it. First, while I assume it works extremely well with Tatsunoko, does it work well with any other Wii games (Brawl, primarily). Secondly, and relatedly, does it work with Street Fighter II on the Virtual Console? I really want one, but that price tag is kind of high. If I can justify getting it by using it on other games, it might be a "buy" for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkeSword Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I believe the Wii recognizes the TvC stick as a Classic Controller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinus Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I believe the Wii recognizes the TvC stick as a Classic Controller. Nice. I haven't seen any evidence of the stick being available in the Netherlands though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malaki-LEGEND.sys Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I know that the Hori Wii fighting stick doesn't work with Brawl, so I'd say do your research first. On a side note, does anyone really think this game is gonna sell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thalzon Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Pfffft, not a chance. It's gonna have the same fate as all other quality Wii games that get no advertising outside of ign get: About 100,000 in sales if they're lucky. Capcom will then go on to blame the consumers for not buying their game they've never heard of. EDIT: I just checked online for The Crystal Bearers, to see what having relatively frequent TV spots does for a weird game. Nothing much it seems, because Crystal Bearers has only sold around 150,000 copies worldwide. Hey, maybe it IS the consumers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing much it seems, because Crystal Bearers has only sold around 150,000 copies worldwide.Hey, maybe it IS the consumers. Or the reviews. Many consumers equate 6-7/10 with an epic *F* even if the game isn't bad. Of course, reviews can't always be the problem. No More Heroes 2 isn't going to sell very well in all likelihood, and it's getting great reviews. MadWorld and No More Heroes 1 suffered the same fate. Those three games could have suffered from M-rating syndrome, where they're so over the top and lack the mainstream name appeal of things like GTA that no one bought them. For Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, I think it'll sell reasonably well, but there's still a pretty good chance it'll become this generation's Marvel vs. Capcom 2 with respect to prices and rarity down the road. On another note, thanks for the info regarding the fight stick, DarkeSword! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHands Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I'd like to think that this game will sell well, even if only because of the popularity of the previous Vs. Capcom games. No one in the US knows what the hell Tatsunoko is, but that doesn't mean that they don't want to kick the crap out of their characters. The stick sounds awesome, by the way. Might get one now.

Maybe as secret characters? At least the genie-in-the-bottle guy is in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinus Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Capcom tried to get the SPC but Tatsunoko, for whatever reason, said no. I just googled around and you're right. What's more, it seems that the genie will also be omitted for the English-language release, due to licensing problems. Dammit, he was the only Tatsunoko character I actually knew and liked Oh well. I suppose there are still plenty of cool characters left on the Capcom side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest of the Tatsunoko characters are pretty fun though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thalzon Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 I think the characters were selected based on popularity polls. So characters more familiar (and beloved) in the west ended up glossed over because they aren't as popular in Japan. Samurai Pizza Cats were awesome over here, but in Japan it was just another kids' cartoon. I guess Speed Racer didn't make the cut either.

Malaki-LEGEND.sys Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Do they just arbitrarily choose which properties they will or won't give? At this point they should just call it Some Cool Capcom Guys Vs. A Bunch of Other Random Dudes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
