− | + | Capcom, which is short for "'''Cap'''sule '''Com'''puter" is a video game company that makes lots of acclaimed game series, but unlike [[Nintendo|other]] [[SEGA|comp]][[SNK|anies]], they haven't made a console, instead preferring to make games for all sorts of different systems. However, [[Nintendo|like]] [[SEGA|other]] [[SNK|companies,]] they made some very special arcade games that many people love and wish were still there. They also made some surprisingly [[good]] licensed games for NES back in the day. They also really hate [[SNK|the Art of Fighting]] game for the reason that one of their characters look<s>s</s>ed like [[Ryu]] and/or [[Ken]] from the Street Fighter games, the Mega Drive (Sega did the majority of arcade ports, Capcom did a poor job on the games that they made) but loved the Saturn and the Dreamcast and also Europe. | |

− | In 1994, Capcom earned the rights to use Marvel characters in a few fighting games. Thus, ''X-Men: Children of the Atom'' was born. It featured members of the X-Men as they basically decided to use Battle Royale in order to determine who should go on to face Magneto. The game was a success, and as an in-game joke, Capcom threw in [[Akuma]] from ''Street Fighter II'' as a hidden character. The inevitable happened and voila; X-Men Vs. Street Fighter was born. You could choose characters from the X-Men game, as well as [[Ryu]], [[Ken | + | In 1994, Capcom earned the rights to use Marvel characters in a few fighting games.

The game was a success, and as an in-game joke, Capcom threw in [[Akuma]] from ''Street Fighter II'' as a hidden character. The inevitable happened and voila; X-Men Vs. Street Fighter was born. You could choose characters from the X-Men game, as well as [[Ryu]], [[Ken]], [[Chun-Li]], Dhalsim, Zangief, [[M. Bison]], Charlie, Akuma and Cammy from ''Street Fighter II/Alpha''. When Capcom also went on to make ''Marvel Super Heroes'', which added some more Marvel characters alongside the X-Men, they followed up with ''Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter''. The game kept Wolverine, Cyclops and most of the Street Fighters (adding [[Dan Hibiki]] and Sakura while removing Cammy), and added Spider-Man, Captain America, The Incredible Hulk, and others. Next, Capcom took it one step further with ''Marvel Vs. Capcom'', which took out a few Marvel characters (and most of the Street Fighter characters, leaving Ryu, Ken (sort of), [[Chun-Li]], Zangief and Akuma (sort of)), but on the other hand, added Venom and War Machine, as well as adding a few Capcom characters from other games, such as [[Mega Man|Megaman]], Morrigan Aensland, Strider Hiryu, Roll and Captain Commando. Finally, the last (and arguably greatest) installment arrived in 2000 with ''Marvel Vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes'', featuring just about everyone from the previous games (excluding the palette-swap characters), added characters like Dr. Doom, Jill Valentine, [[Tron Bonne]], [[Anakaris]], Cable and Iron Man, added some new gameplay features and was just plain [[delicious|awesome]]. |
− | Capcom also did a few more crossovers, such as a 4-game (plus some card-battling games) crossover with [[SNK]], featuring characters from Street Fighter, Darkstalkers, Rival Schools, The King of Fighters, The Last Blade, and Samurai Shodown, a strategy RPG with Namco (which tends to feature lots of the more obscure characters from both companies | + | Capcom also did a few more crossovers, such as a 4-game (plus some card-battling games) crossover with [[SNK]], featuring characters from Street Fighter, Darkstalkers, Rival Schools, The King of Fighters, The Last Blade, and Samurai Shodown, a strategy RPG with Namco (which tends to feature lots of the more obscure characters from both companies), and a crossover against various Tatsunoko properties in which was was only on the [[Nintendo]] [[Wii]] only and initially for Japan only. However, a remake called ''Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars'', which loses one character (Hakushon Daimao) but adds four new ones (Tekkaman Blade, Joe the Condor, Frank West, and [[Mega Man|Zero]]) will be released worldwide in 2010, so yeah. [[Mega Man|Megaman]] would've been in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', but Keiji Inafune was waiting for Sakurai to approach him, while Sakurai was waiting for Inafune to come over and ask if [[Mega Man|Megaman]] could be in the game. Oh the <s>faggotry</s> irony of it all. |

Capcom: Cross Generation of Heroes for the U.S.A. and Europe.), having games such as Zack & [[Wikipedia|Wiki]]: The Quest For Barbaros' Treasure and Okami sell poorly due to bad or no advertisement, making [[Mega Man|Megaman 9]] not a WiiWare exclusive, and the aforementioned no Marvel Vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes for WiiWare. Then again, they've been screwing Nintendo over ever since the Nintendo 64 days, with the exception of their handhelds, so people really have [[no]] reason to bitch at them. |
