No, but I'd definitely take a look at Ninendo vs. Capcom :D

I don't think the nonsensical nature of Nintendo's characters would be a good fit for a Capcom VS game... I would expect a different gameplay style for this crossover. Perhaps something like Power Stone could work, as long as it's different enough from Smash. Something that takes advantage of platforming gameplay and power ups.

Anyway... This thread is going to get inevitably derailed, isn't it ?


It could be done but the best method, likely only one Nintendo would get behind, would be something akin to Smash Bros style gameplay. Which honestly would be the best method providing Nintendo a reason to do a Smash Bros outside of the normal once a generation release and potentially getting in Capcom's good graces sharing that Smash name to a greater degree.

Although the minute it is announced Capcom and Nintendo will be flooded by people complaining about characters left out or ones they want in so maybe from a individual developer stand point all that grief might turn the Capcom side off.

Yeah, the idea of having another Smash hit per gen could convince Nintendo... ^_^  Something akin to Power Stone as I suggested before could work, which was actually created around the same time Smash was. It has many elements in common, yet it's different enough to separate one from the other. And it would also give Capcom the chance to either continue Power Stone as well, or just satisfy the fans that have been asking for it for a while...

Arcade-style, 4-players, platforming and power ups, and enviroment obstacles. All this with a focus on 3D gameplay rather than Smash's 2D one and more traditional energy bars. With a few changes perhaps, I could see this working out well for a Nintendo/Capcom crossover.

Of course, the idea of any crossover between so many popular characters always ignites the passion from us fans... On the other hand, it provides an easy way to manipulate us... And according to my experience, I've come to the conclusion that these companies, and Capcom in particular, like money very much...

Just for fun, I made my own character roster for this concept. I aimed for it to be plausible enough, but there's clearly a few choices that keep it from being the most likely one. It consists of 30 characters (27 were created for Tatsunoko VS Capcom), with 10 male ones and 5 females on each side.

Shonen Jump side: Goku (Dragon Ball), Luffy (One Piece), Naruto (Naruto), Kenshin (Rurouni Kenshin), Kenshiro (Hokuto no Ken/Fist of North Star), Seiya (Saint Seiya), Yusuke (Yu Yu Hakusho), Ichigo (Bleach), Dark Schneider (Bastard !!), Kinnikuman (Kinnikuman), Android #18 (Dragon Ball), Nami (One Piece), Tsunade (Naruto), Misao (Rurouni Kenshin), Rukia (Bleach).

Capcom side: Ryu (Street Fighter), Strider (Strider), X (Mega Man X), Dante (Devil May Cry), M.Bison (Street Fighter), Mike Haggar (Final Fight), Hayato (Star Gladiator), Captain Commando (Captain Commando), Firebrand (Ghosts 'n Goblins), Asura (Asura's Wrath), Chun-Li (Street Fighter), Cammy (Street Fighter), Morrigan (Darkstalkers), Ibuki (Street Fighter), Tessa (War-Zard/Red Earth).

So, for those of you who are interested, what do you think ? Good enough ? I'm interested in seeing what you guys come up as well. Extra points if you manage to keep it realistic...
