I just think the way they make games is affecting other games and turning it into a bigger cheese fest than its ever been. So if another company made it perhaps it could be better. Wouldn't mind soulcaliber vs bleach... or Dragonball vs SF |
Well, I have to disagree... In my opinion, Capcom has been the biggest supporter of fighting games, either from these past few years or in all of gaming's history. The genre as a whole wouldn't be where it is without them, with most other franchises being stuck at a niche level, or dwindling in popularity. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy many of them, but without Capcom's offerings the genre would be much less viable than it is now. All this more than compensates their questionable decisions regarding DLC to me, which are not exclusive to them anyway.
I'm not sure what you mean by "cheese fest" here, but it's not my intention to convince those who dislike Capcom's fighters anyway... I respect the opinion of those who don't enjoy them, but my question was aimed to those who are open to them. I say this not just as a response to your comment, but also regarding the previous comments that claimed not to care much for Capcom's fighters, or fighting games in general.
I agree that a Dragon Ball VS Street Fighter game could work for similar reasons that I believe Shonen Jump VS Capcom would, but I don't see any point in limiting the selection to it. The only positive of this would be how easy it would be to localize in comparison, but as I mentioned before, that's secondary to me. A Jump game obviously has far more potential to attract more anime/manga fans, and the fact that we already got a Marvel VS Capcom and Tatsunoko VS Capcom before means that it would not be out of place within the "Capcom VS" series.
