Tatsunoko vs. Capcom Confirmed for Wii

Akira_EX | September 16, 2008 | News | Wii 
In the latest issue of weekly Famitsu, which brought you White Knight Chronicles' release date, comes a new game confirmation: originally slated as arcade-only, the newest Capcom Vs. fighter, Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, will make its way to the Wii, releasing in Japan on December 11th.

Tatsunoko is an animation company responsible for popular anime such as Gatchaman, Casshan, and Yatterman. This is the latest Vs. fighting title from Capcom, which will see characters drawn from more of its franchises than just its fighting series.

Confirmed appearances:
Tatsunoko:
Ken the Eagle - Science Ninja Team Gatchaman
Casshan - Neo-Human Casshan
Tekkaman - Tekkaman: The Space Knight
Yatterman-1 - Yatterman
Hurricane Polymar - Hurrican Polymar
Gold Lightan - Golder Warrior Gold Lightan
Doronjo - Yatterman
Karas - Karas

Capcom:
Ryu - Street Fighter
Chun-Li - Street Fighter II
Batsu Ichimonji - Rival Schools: United by Fate
Alex - Street Fighter III
Morrigan Aensland - Darkstalkers
Soki - Onimusha Dawn of Dreams
Megaman Volnutt - Mega Man Legends
PTX-40A - Lost Planet: Extreme Condition

No American release has been announced, although it is highly unlikely; however, Capcom's Christian Svennson has said that they are working on it. Expect a full wrapup of all of Famitsu's scans later in the day with the Weekly Famitsu article. Scans are courtesy of Wii @ Everyday.
