Capcom USA ‘Investigating’ Tatsunoko vs. Capcom

We’re excited about Tatsunoko vs. Capcom. The game seems like a fun arcade cross-over. Sure, there will be Western arcades that import the game, but will it get an official release outside Japan? Capcom USA is looking into it. No doubt the American licensing issues for the Tatsunoko Productions characters is sticky. Capcom USA’s Christian Svensson points out:

We haven’t discussed any home console plans for the title yet, so platform discussions are a bit premature. All that’s been anounced is arcade… There are a lot of licensing issues around the title given that those properties are held by different companies across the West and they vary by territory greatly. It was created as a Japan-only project but we’re investigating.

That’s sure nice of Capcom.
