411mania talks about this week's game releases. Highlights include The King of Fighters XII, Marvel vs. Capcom 2, Rockin' Pretty, Doki Majo Plus, Star Radish, Puyo Puyo 7, Neon Genesis Evangelion: Battle Orchestra Portable, and Space Bust-A-Move.

Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes (XBLA)

I can appreciate the fact that Capcom was able to pull off the impossible and get Marvel to allow it to re-release the game, even if it is only through digital distribution. I'm also impressed that Capcom had the foresight to use the original Dreamcast code when porting instead of going the easier route and using either the PS2 or Xbox version as a base. Having an arcade perfect (or nearly arcade perfect) port is pretty important if they want the support of the hardcore MVC2 players out there, and this simple decision almost guarantees that that is what we are getting.
