IGN wants Nintendo vs Capcom

http://wii.ign.com/articles/114/1147008p1.html

This is so funny because I posted almost the exact same ideas on the gamespot forums this summer. I said they should make something like a Nintendo x Capcom or Capcom x Nintendo.

who doesn't?

Basically, Smash Bros. Vs. Capcom is what you want....:P

I don't think the guys with the sword would fit in well. I'd so main Link/Ike if it happens though. Those two seem more fit for soul caliber than a Nintendo vs. Capcom game...

we can dream!

me, the idea just seems kinda wrong in my mind. I can't picture Mario in a violent game like that

So the same website that I've heard bashes almost every Wii game in their Reviews (I heard from others on this site because I couldn't care less for reviews) is stating that they want a Capcom vs Nintendo (Who they seem to not like much anymore)? Interesting... Anywho, I would like to see how they do this because it would sorta work with the SSB engine but Mario on a Street Fighter Engine is kinda hard to see but I guess it can work if done right.nini200

Err, IGN generally rates Wii games higher than GS does :?

Smash Bros Vs Capcom is a better idea (imo)

I think it would be a fun game, but I don't see it ever happening. Firstly, Nintendo is pretty overprotective of their intellectual property/characters (and rightfully so). Second, I think that Nintendo may feel that having a bunch of Nintendo characters battling it out would take away some of the mystique of Smas Bros.

I'd certainly buy the game, but I think it will come out about as soon as Nebris' Sadness game.

I approve if it includes Ace Attorney characters.

No it's not, the creator himself says it's not a fighting game at all

This is common knowledge

But still, the gameplay revolves around a small group of fighters locked in an arena, with nothing to do but fight each other untill the time runs out, or there is only one left standing. It's definitly a fighting game. It's different then most other fighting games, but it still is.

That's not what Gamespot thinks apparantly. Look at the review for the game and you'll see that the genre is "3D Fighting".

I don't really want that. I mean, they don't really go together... at all.

I'd buy that in a heartbeat.

No, when he created the game he made it like a sports game.

The whole interview is in Nintendo Power but I've had to use parts of the interview before, let me use search..........

"Nintendo Power: Why do you think Super Smash Bros. continues to be so popular even though interest in traditional fighting games has dwindled?

Sakurai: I think it's because it is, in fact, not a fighting game. The nature of it is similar to a sports game in which the player shoots an opponent as if it were a ball. The results are different [every time you play], which, I think, is also a unique and attractive quality of the game."

I would love that! Question is, would the gameplay style be more like SSB or Vs series? I could go either way.

EDIT: Also, what platforms? (If I had my way, Wii, 360, AND PS3)

Basically, Smash Bros. Vs. Capcom is what you want....:P

I don't think the guys with the sword would fit in well. I'd so main Link/Ike if it happens though. Those two seem more fit for soul caliber than a Nintendo vs. Capcom game...

tocool340

Lol so .....Iron Man with his planet blasting super cannons are okay, Deadpool with his swords are okay....Dante!.....but Link or Ike are the ones who don't belong? Hmm....2 and 2 are not adding up to 4 here :P

Captain Falcon vs Captain Commando. The World would implode.

Then what the heck is it? It certainly looks like a Fighting Game to me. :?

Nintendo vs Capcomdoesn't sound like a bad idea, butlike someone said before, seeing characters like Mario in a violent game (outside of smash brothers.. which is mild) just seems weird.

now, Nintendo vs Sega would be completely awesome... lol

If It was Capcom's roster added onto Super Smash Bros style game, i would be all for it

I approve if it includes Ace Attorney characters.

ChubbyGuy40

I would rather it be like the vs games. I prefer fighters where people actually have to know how to play, then just simplistic button pushing like up A, down B, and so on. Smash Bros is fun, but I want a veteran fighter.

This. I've had a much better experience with SSB style of fighting than the MvC one.

It is not about dodging attacks or lack thereof. I would just rather have move where you have to know how to do them instead being able to pull off combos relatively easily. There is a certain gratification in memorizing and excuting moves at the proper time that you can't get with smash bros. True, you do need to use moves wisely is smash bros to a degree, but it's "too pick up and play." I played brawl over a cousins house once and I actually won on my second round of fighting even though I had never played the game previously. A game where a complete novice like is able to win on his or her second fight is unenjoyable.

Yes, and you have Street Fighter, MvC, MK (I think) and others for that kind of thing. I don't want Nintendo to ruin SSB by turning it into a combo-memorizing fighting game: I like having skill in dodging, precise movements and getting back on top of the platform, not pressing the buttons in the correct sequence. Don't get me wrong, I love Street Fighter, but if I want to play SF, I play it, not Super Smash Bros.

And as far as a novice beating me, NO. Back in the late 90's I used to play SSB almost every day, and no one I knew could even get close to beating me (used Link). There's a lot of skill to the game, the difference being that you can still play the game even if you haven't practiced hours upon hours on it (Street Fighter's learning curve is steep: if you don't know the combos, you'll get destroyed).

Yeah, and I bet the winners are a bunch of lucky noobs who only played the game a few times, right? Wrong. Any game can have skilled players.
