They never did! .-. if you want to blame someone blame licensing agreements and such expiring or becoming null and void after IPs get swapped around muddying the waters legally! You all act like you were prevented from playing the game entirely!
everyone in the comments going "now they can't take it away from us again" gonna be real suprised in a few years when marvel and capcom team up again to send lawyers directly to your house
Or like most games for the past 20+ years with online capabilities, can remove your ability to play online if they see fit(gamers can't read and never look that the words on the game cases!
I actually wouldn't count on it this time. Capcom losing the Marvel license was largely due to a very short-lived push within Disney to bring all their IPs in-house and develop their own first-party games using the properties they owned, which lasted like only a couple years since it was relegated to just Disney Infinity. Disney now is all in on just being a licensing house where gaming is concerned and considering they also restructured Lucasfilm's games division to get out of the EA agreement, their entire mentality has definitely shifted compared to a decade ago
The funny thing about the MvC comic is that it's the same size as Gerald's Journal for Sonic X Shadow Generations and yet it's still much more legible.
RIP to everyone in Europe who wanted a physical Switch version. Really disappointing that Capcom forgo actual cartridges in boxes for so much of their legacy content specifically for that region. The comic's a fun read
Luckily, importing is always an option. I initially dropped a preorder for the US release with the intent of switching over to the EU one once it went up, but eventually decided to just keep my US copy once the code-in-box news dropped.
This was likely a Europe manufacturers decision given that this is only done in Europe lol if it was Capcoms decision than why did they only choose Europe to have no switch cartridge? We know this isn't a Nintendo decision given they like their hardware enough to always make physical! Maybe this is a Capcom decision but it being only for Europe makes me believe this is more europes agreement for Capcom than the other way around!
I also got my copy today for PS4. I still love physical media, the disc version of games! I have plenty of great PS2 and PS3 games on my shelf that I love, that I collected in the past 20 years. And some of those are not available digitally, and I think they're never going to be.
I definitely double dipped for a physical Switch copy. No way I wasn't gonna be part of FGC history and have Marvel in my giant Switch physical collection.
Too cool. I ordered my physical copy yesterday. Tomorrow Sunday the 24th is my 42nd birthday, I set the delivery date for tomorrow so I can receive it as a present to myself. I still have my physical copy of Marvel vs. Capcom 2 for the PS2. I'm so hyped to play this collection. ✌🏼
Marvel vs capcom 1 Never Released on Nintendo 64 Marvel vs capcom 2 Never Released on Nintendo GameCube Marvel vs capcom 3 fate of two Worlds Never Released on Nintendo Wii Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 Never Released on Nintendo Wii & Wii U Marvel vs capcom infinite stone Never Released on Nintendo switch Marvel vs capcom Arcade Classic collection Released on Nintendo Switch 😊 in 2024
Wild how ps1 can get a garbage port of the versus games on there but none of them ever release on n64 which would have probably ran alot better. Midway really dominated fighters for that console since they actually knew it was missed money.
@@Drilbit I remember ps1 version 1998 oh my God that port is the worst , you can't switch character in the fighting time , I go back to play Arcade and Dreamcast version and not come back to playing ps1 version anymore
@aazart8886 i had fun with it as a kid till I found it was playing the worst version this whole time. Why even release it on ps1 if you're gonna have to gut the game significantly?
@@DrilbitThe only reason they got PS1 ports is because of the CD space compared to the cartridge space. Every CPSII-III game ran fine on Playstation, save for animation cutbacks. Imagine running Street Fighter III 3rd Strike on N64. The music would have to be replaced with MIDI files, and animation would be cut back even more.
@aaron_aj_knight_95 i mean that game didn't release on Playstation either so it definitely would have been beyond the ps1s capabilities. I do think that the versus games would have probably ran fine on n64 aside from some compression and maybe needing expansion pak
I really wish Capcom would release Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3-X. You can choose between either version (Vanilla and Ultimate), and there's a third version where you can mix and match fighters from both versions, similar to SSF2T-X.
Funny story. So, when MvC2 came out for the ps3 (the download code one 😒) I ditched my job (I was working security at the time) to go pick up at GameStop asap because I knew they would have limited quantities. Then I went back to work as if nothing happened (no one noticed!). When the collection came out yesterday (Friday) I left my job to go pick it up at Best Buy as soon as they opened lol. I did it during my lunch this time though
I dounle dipped on the Switch version, buying it digitally at launch and 2 days ago havung bought a physical copy. I am not opening it and just keeping it sealed. I am considering buying another copy just to open and play it on my Switch I keep at home and the digitally on my Switch lite, so i dont have to constantly change my primary Switch status between the two (Switch owners with multiple Switches know what i am talking about). While its awesome its in multiple consoles; the fact that the comic is the same size on the PS4; shows that the Switch was prioritized and in all honesty; probably the REAL reason this collection exists in the first place.
I still want to see him rate all the character endings from each game in the collection and maybe MVC3 and MVCI, I’m sure we can all agree that would be a fun video.
Max, if you don't know, this prequel comic is written by Christos Gage and art by Albert Albuquerque. Then MvC3 Cover art by Adi Granov, Alvin Lee (for the special edition) and Shikoku (sorry, I don't pronounce the name). And Bengus (who draw the characters in MvC2) will become new MvC Variant Covers releasing in December, selecting Marvel Comics titles like Avengers, X-Men, Captain America, Iron Man, Amazing Spider-Man, Uncanny X-Men, All-New Venom and Fantastic Four
Max you're never gonna take the credit you deserve for this, but you are the reason I have this Switch cartridge in my house. I will never get rid of it, they can't ever take it from me again. Thank you.
One thing that surprised me about the comic is that it tells a complete story. I thought it would just be setup for the supposed "story" of the game similar to the comic on UMVC3 that came out with the physical rerelease but no it tells a whole story in that tiny comic. Sure its nothing spectacular its just a fun little crossover story but it definitely a nice surprise.
I just bought it physically on Switch, and I’m going to eventually be buying it digitally on Switch, and digitally as well on everything else. The comic is a great addition, but yeah, it is crazy small in scale. Honestly, they should make a high resolution version of it, and include it as a digital art book in the collection’s in-game menu. Plus, it would give digital owners a way of getting the comic in some form. If not, I see someone scanning the physical comic itself in high resolution PDF format, and people would have it in a higher scale that way.
I'm happy we can get these games without scalpers coming in and charging us an arm and a leg just to play MvC. Now we have a way to play them all on modern console....minus vanilla MvC3.
Got it and it's really nice having a version that runs properly and isn't cut down, considering I grew up with the PS1 port of MvC 1 and the PS2 port of MvC 2. The comics really nice, too, though I hope we get a comic book adaptation of MvC 2 so they can expand on the stuff in the game.
I think moving forward if they do decide to make a MvsC4 they need to revert back to making the characters more like Guilty Gear strive or more comic bookish not like the new street fighter 6 which to me is chasing the tekken series in modeling there characters more life like.
kicking myself for trying to preorder from walmart, (I have W+ and thought it would save me some money) but soon as I can I'll be getting it from amazon, I can't wait! neat to see the included mini-comic I can't wait to flip through it.
Got digital day one, physical came in and I gave it to my wife. She’s begun enjoying fighting games over the last 4 months. We take turns on mvc2 and it’s a blast.
This is what I was wondering when he said that on stream. I figure Marvel tastes like Fruit Punch and Capcom tastes like one of those orange creamsicles
Y'all should buy the Asian version too, the Asian version had a really cool back cover that doesn't had too many white area compare to the North American version.
@LelouchRika I'm aware of how currency conversion works. You make $20/hr and I make $20/hr takes me longer to buy the same thing. Even when we are on par with 1usd to 1cdn it's still different.
@@LelouchRika thanks, i know how currency conversions work. you make 20/hr and i make 20/hr it takes me longer to pay for the same thing. even when we were at par for currency, the prices did not go down. i dont expect americans to understand this and put themselves in others shoes, but it sucks to have something so simple cost just a little bit more for no reason.
Picked up mine this morning. I’ve had it digitally since launch so I’m going to keep playing that one and keep my physical copy sealed for collection purposes. I do wish I could check out the comic tho. I wonder if it’s online somewhere?
He’s so passionate about MVC he even tried licking the Switch Cartridge, Marvelously Based
Now they can't take it away from us... AGAIN
Nope! I got my Switch and Playstation 4!
They never did! .-. if you want to blame someone blame licensing agreements and such expiring or becoming null and void after IPs get swapped around muddying the waters legally! You all act like you were prevented from playing the game entirely!

I'll probably end up buying multiples for safety.

Got my UK PS4 game yesterday... ours doesn't come with the mini-comic inside 😠
This still feels unreal seeing MVC getting rereleased
It's gonna feel more unreal when CVS gets rereleased.
@@TronicSpeed can’t wait to revisit my favorite pharmacy again.
I’d never played the games when they first came out, but when I got this on steam I quickly realized just how good these games truly are

I never thought I'd live to see the day that we would get a new MVC collection release on modern consoles. They really took us for a ride.
The comic needs to have Ironman doing his infinite, reading "Hup-Too-Hup-TAH - Hup-Too-Hup-TAH - PROTON CANNON"
I waited for the Physical and I am excited to finally have it. I suck at all these games, but they are fun as hell.
I'm super glad we got a physical release.
Me too...got mine for PS4 yesterday...loving it.
Now they can't take it away from us again.
wait what? theres an actual instruction booklet inside?
nevermind, its a comic..
Wow I never imagine there would be something else in the box, really nice of them to add the comic.
I really wish Capcom would release Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3-X. You can choose between either version (Vanilla and Ultimate), and there's a third version where you can mix and match fighters from both versions, similar to SSF2T-X.

Alright Max, I'm gonna need a Rate the Taste video from you now. We'll start with the OG Pong arcade machines all the way up to PS5 Pro.
I still want to see him rate all the character endings from each game in the collection and maybe MVC3 and MVCI, I’m sure we can all agree that would be a fun video.
bro can sell his licked copy of this game for $$$1000s
4:52 Bri'ish Max is something I never thought I'd hear

Man I dragged my PS2 copy of MVC2 over 5 house moves, 3 countries and 20 years for NOTHING. But seriously good shit.
I was also one of the ppl that didn’t buy digital and waiting for physical finally having it I’m happy!
Max you're never gonna take the credit you deserve for this, but you are the reason I have this Switch cartridge in my house. I will never get rid of it, they can't ever take it from me again. Thank you.
Anyone else hunting for the MVC comic variants on the 2nd?
I waited for physical, physical games for the win !!!
Max holding MvC2, is like watching Oxygen turn to Gold.
A true miracle.
to have a physical copy of these games is so special. lol i even preserved that small sticker at the front just because.
Physical copy is the only way I'd buy this game
Mahvel is officially back baby!!! Seeing Max so happy and passionate about Mahvel always makes me smile. It is just so great having Mahvel return!
Mine arrives tomorrow from Amazon and physical black myth wukong on the 13th December
Max was so excited he bought physical copies for BOTH consoles. 😂

Glad my question at 8:14 made it into the video hahaha
5:56 Did they just reference my animation with Megaman and Spidey??? Especially that dialog!!!
Not only did we get an unboxing video but an entire history on all the previous comics and fancy cover cases for MVC3 and MVCI, we are so back!
Ill get a physical copy on the switch once i get a new job, its been a tough year for me so hopefully ill get a new job very soon.
Mahvel truly is back
Still can’t believe it
Thank God they both have the actual game in the boxes.
I WISH there was a collectors edition, like with a big artbook!

Feels like a proud father
I bought 5 versions of the collection to make sure it gets good support. Digital: Steam, PS4, & Switch; Physical: PS4 & Switch.
Just got mine today!!! Its such an amazing feeling having these in my hand!!! Sooo glad the Switch version wasn't a code in a box!!!😊
I love how his first instinct when seeing the cartridge is "how does this taste?"
I think moving forward if they do decide to make a MvsC4 they need to revert back to making the characters more like Guilty Gear strive or more comic bookish not like the new street fighter 6 which to me is chasing the tekken series in modeling there characters more life like.

Im so happy for u max...we did it! We freakin did it!❤❤😊😊
I hope Disney gets the rights to make Street Fighter Movies and make an MvCU :)
