Levi already wrote about Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Cross Generation of Heroes after discovering scans from this week’s issue of Famitsu. Those images shown in the scan are now on the online edition of Famitsu so you can see how gorgeous the game looks. Like Fate / Unlimited Code and Street Fighter IV, Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Cross Generation of Heroes will be in arcades first.
Well, arcades in Japan first. Capcom USA has yet to announce it, but according to a forum post by Seth Killian, Senior Community Manager, they are aware of its existence.
The potential problem with localizing Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Cross Generation of Heroes is fragmentation of the Tatsunoko anime licenses in North America. Gatchaman (pictured) and Casshern, another announced franchise, deal with ADV. Yatterman, which is probably in the game considering one of the stage backgrounds, is unlicensed at this time. Who knows what the deal with Speed Racer is anymore since rights to the franchise are split between the original animation and the film in theaters.
