New Tatsunoko vs. Capcom Fighter (We Don't Know!)
We sure hope that upcoming Capcom arcade fighter Tatsunoko vs. Capcom is good. So far, it looks good! But we won't know until we give it a whirl at one of the location tests for the game. The game will be playable next month (soon) in locations in both Tokyo and Osaka — Taito Hey! in Akihabara and Ikebukuro GIGO from July 10th to the 13th and Osaka's SEGA Avion from July 25th to the 27th. Announced fighters for both the Capcom side and the Tatsunoko side include Batsu Ichimonji from Capcom 2-on-2 fighter Rival Schools, Chun-li, Ryu, space knight Tekkaman, Gatchaman and Casshern. In the flier for the arcade location test, it says there will be a new character announced. So there's that to look forward to, too.

@thetrueyuiop: If they want to make Casshern play like the movie character, the designers will ensure that his command scheme makes no goddamn sense.

@fishtub: That song flies down as one of the most epic moments of badassery in human history. That and the intro for Braiger opening for the J9 trilogy.

"誰だ! 誰だ? 誰だー!?"
That's from the Gatchaman Theme song.

Definitely Alex's overalls.. nice.
Honestly, at first glance I almost thought it was a zombie because of the figure's awkward pose and shirtlessness.. but then realized there wasn't enough decay.
I'm psyched that there is a rival schools character..
@Gwynna: I don't know how you're seeing Gan, the sumo-style fighter from RS, in those shadows, but I guess that's pretty cool. I'd prefer Akira or Hayato to be the additional RS character, but the the more RS love, the happier I am.
@Lyrai: I thought you were kidding at first, then noticed they did make the show.. then realized they probably have a good chance of making it...! T'was a wacky show. I also noticed they made Littl' Bits! I used to watch that all the time when I was pretty little... And I just remembered having a crush on the blonde one.. which is weird.
@Reetesh: If the rights to the show aren't all tangled up, I think an evangelion character is a shoe-in, but I don't think it'd be an EVA unit, most likely Shinji or Rei.... But I do hope Misato and her penguin appear in the background somewhere or somethin.

THE JOY! Rival Schools characters in the same game with SFIII characters? Be still my heart!

New character? Hope it's Komugi. I think many people are hoping for Komugi.
Do Kesubei
Karas please! Give me Karas!

IT IS ALEX. There have been scans of Arcadia showing him and Yatterman 1 (the other highlighted character).
ShadowStarWolf
I'll be quite pleased if it does end up being Alex.
DTJAAAAM
@madflava: i too, will be importing this. just gotta.
subterfunk
As great as it is to see some III characters in this, I'd like to see some wacky Capcom characters as well.
Miles Edgeworth, to precise.
Karoshi
This game better have the Gatchaman theme song in one of the stages.
madflava
I'm importing this when it get ported to the home systems. I doubt that this game will be released in the USA considering 99.99% of America have no idea what Tatsunoko Productions is. I'm hoping that Dante, Leon Kennedy, and Nemesis are introduced as Capcom Fighters.

あれは誰だ 誰だ 誰だ

Dare da! Dare da? Dare da-!? It looks like the bottom of Jill from RE3. Mini skirt..?

@jBusiness: I hear that =P
Gantz: Your Trusted Friend in Science.
If you go to the site, you can pretty much clearly see that those are Alex and Gan-chan of Yatterman.
Also, the other silhouettes are Morrigan (far left) and Hurricane Polymer (far right).
Now... the center, the one right beside Alex... Is that DANTE?!
ShadowStarWolf
As exciting as this is, I made the mistake of looking up BlazBlue and now that's really all I can look forward to.
jBusiness
Looks like there is another Rival Schools character in the background there. The big sumo-kinda one (forgotten his name, sorry).
Oh and I love the way they use a pun on the original Gatchaman song to pose the question "Who? Who? Who?!?" Made me chuckle.
Gwynna
give me Goh Mifune!....or Racer X...run over blanka(if hes in it) anytime
ejpal
I loved rival schools with a passion. That reminds me, I need to find a copy of project justice that isn't crazy expensive.
sex-target
The guy itn the spotlight definetly looks like Alex from SFIII.
Shiryu
It's Alex from SF3.
No doubt about it.

We need Mike Haggar!
Shiryu
He looks black, but that might just be the darkening of the area. I'm guessing Alex or Rolento.
