Tatsunoko vs. Capcom facing licensing issues for a NA release, Capcom will do its best to bring it over
October 12th, 2008 Posted in News, Posted by Valay, Wii“I am personally very excited for Tatsunoko Vs Capcom, even to the point where I begged R+D to let us play it at EVO last year, if only for a few days. It’s not up to either of us but I will make sure Capcom knows this game would have a warm reception in the West should we be able to defeat that evil-est of Robot Masters: Legal Licensing Issue Man.” – Seth Killian, Capcom Sr. Manager, Community
I’d really like to see Tatsunoko vs. Capcom in North America in its current state, but that probably won’t happen. I can still see trouble for the game even if it was changed so that licensing issues would be avoided. Come on Capcom, work your magic!

I hope it’s worth it and nobody gets screwed over.

If the recent ESRB listing of MvsC2 for the PS2, XBox, XBox 360 and PS3 has any weight to it, then the Marvel license is back in Capcom’s hands. If so, then it’s more likely that Capcom would repurpose Tatsunoko vs Capcom as MvsC3, given the difficulty that the licensing issues for the Tatsunoko characters has posed. So we might indeed get it, but it’s possible that the Tatsunoko side of the equation might be dropped completely.
