    You are an awesome dude! You seem very passionate about MVC, and enjoyed hearing your history and recap on the series, a release date cannot come soon enough, MVC Collection is easily the best announcement of 2024, and 2024 being the 30th Anniversary of COTA released in 1994, that cannot be a coincidence.

    MvC2 is the reason I play fighting games at all. I remember playing at an arcade for the first time (along with mvc1 and marvel superheroes vs street fighter, absolutely goated arcade) and despite sucking at it, immediately falling in love with it. I remember immediately looking to see if they had it available on a console I had (they didn’t) but I saw street fighter 4 on a shelf one day, recognized Ryu, and have played basically every fighting game I can get my hands on. I’m so glad that arcade had marvel2, and I’m so glad this collection will bring them to modern audiences with physical versions so they can’t delist them like they did with the ps3/360 hd version. It’s also apparently running the arcade version of MvC2 which I believe will be the first time the arcade version will be available on a home console which is cool. Anyway love the video, could really feel that love for the series shine through, as someone who is also 19 and grew up playing MvC1/2 it really spoke to me. And really looking forward to the collection, definitely getting it on all platforms

  • @Ashura96
    @Ashura96 6 місяців тому +9

    MSH vs. SF falls under that "Capcom laziness" thing that started with SF2, but the OST is fantastic, and most returning characters have at least one new special or super move. This also happened with returning characters in MvC1, but most characters in MvC2 that hadn't been seen since any of the first 3 games got nothing new.
    I believe Iron Man was planned to be in MSH vs. SF, but Marvel decided to give him an exclusive license to Acclaim (who turned out one mediocre game in that time) and which is why we have War Machine in MvC1. I guess that exclusivity ran out in time for MvC2.
    If we ever discover time travel, you gotta go back to the 90s/early 00s and see the absolute HYPE these games had when they were new.

  • @RAY296

    I was born in 96. This game feels oddly important to me, and I’ve always played it casually. (No assists, infinites)The xmen were still relevant in my childhood but being phased out. Iron man and Thor being popular now is so surreal after they felt like nobodies for my upbringing, my only memory of them being Ultimate Alliance. Spider-Man and Wolverine dominating the comic book zeitgeist. Them removing these characters and giving their moves/functions to other characters was out of pocket. The mvc series owes its origins thanks to the xmen collaborations.
    Capcom wouldn’t dare remove ryu and give his kit to a new capcom representative, these characters are just as important.
    Would be a dream if they could pull off smash’s ’everybody is here concept’
    Classic mega man and mega man z, and zero, and roll in the same game would be nuts

They act like shit just stopped existing after they grew up like, nah bro we were playing that shit too. We were watching reruns of the cartoons they had, playing games on the consoles they left behind. They forget that shit doesn’t just up and disappear for the next generation. It might not be popular but not everyone was getting the new shit when it came out.

    the Playstation 1 versions are wayyy better. there's a super bar fill cheat, no infinites (so even akuma is competitive), you can link supers, more options. and you can tag out if you go opposite characters and turn on a cheat.
    this makes the Playstation 1 version more fun.
