Niitsuma just sank the idea of Uncanny is all I meant. I wasn't really concerned about the prize thing.

Anyways. I don't know if I'm all that excited about that new Origins game. Is it anything other than a rehash?

Looks like another Iron Galaxy effort, based on the mini-achievements. They did a good enough job on 3S, gripes about 'arcade perfect' aside.

The cool thing is that Iron Galaxy still plans on fixing problems people have with 3S:OE, like turning off the side bars, fixing matchmaking, doing whatever they can to get the speed as close to perfect as possible, etc: http://iplaywinner.com/news/2012/6/15/3rd-strike-online-edition-patch-3-plans-revealed.html

I'd probably trust them over Capcom to get these ports right.

I'd be *shocked* if they *weren't* working on some kind of update to MvC3 given how popular it's proven in the long run; licensing issues are a bit of a pain in the industry, though, so if anything's holding them back it's probably that (also most likely the reason that Ultimate was pushed out the door early according to Capcom higher-ups).

That Uncanny 'leak' stuff is the largest pile of bullshit I've ever sniffed, though; the new moves listed are stupid (Taskmaster doesn't need a variable-level hyper combo, Spencer doesn't need a gun; if you wanna make fake move changes, do them for characters that aren't already high-tier), the new characters are idiotic (We all want Megaman but I don't believe that the "new Capcom" would intentionally put non-exclusive/DLC characters that are 'jokes'; also, they'd put in some other hotter property [Asura?] before putting in Servbot and I utterly refuse to believe they'd put Ant Man in as a playable character given his cameo appearance already), the name is dumb (no way they'd be idiotic enough to keep the same 'acronym' between Ultimate and Uncanny ["UMvC3? Which one??"]), them not remixing a couple of stages here and there also sounds incredibly suspect (it's a cheap, easy way to inflate content and bullet points for the release), and... yeah. There's just nothing there that sounds sane, rational, or logical in the slightest. Not even them giving us Megaman makes any sense since they went ahead and made that drat Zero alt costume and otherwise shoved him on an H&H card.

I'm all for the fun and joys of reading fake leaks and speculation and all of that but every single thing posted on that twitter account was just *dumb*. Keeping my fingers crossed for some announcement of the real thing or at least a patch of some sort this weekend.

Shipped 600,000 in the first two months against Skyrim and Saints Row 3 and the PSV version beat Uncharted in digital sales in launch month. Capcom have said it did good numbers for them as well.

It did good for what is essentially the GOTY edition. So it wouldn't be surprising if they did more with it. Especially as they practically have a whole weekend of free advertising coming up and Super and AE had big sales spikes thanks to Evo.

If you haven't seen it yet check it out. It's really really good.

I had read somewhere that long-term sales for Ultimate were actually really decent, and way more-so on the Vita due to it being a downloadable title. I'm trying to find a source on that at the moment but not having any luck; if I can, I'll edit it into this post.

Capcom's figures were 600k units shipped over some amount of time I can't remember. It's not bad, but not guaranteed sequel numbers either.

I think I still have MVC1 for Dreamcast packed away somewhere, and I'd rather see X-Men vs SF than MSH in the HD set. I imported it for Saturn way back when with the extra 4MEG cart. :getin:

I can make it to the PSN tourney tonight, hooray! Someone on FGTV Stream 2 had an awesome Chris last night and it inspired me to practice a little more with him. Getting the spacing for that OTG gunshot (Cr. H or in the air) is still hard for me and I'm usually too surprised I actually got a knockdown that I forget to follow up. (Whoever faces me tonight should have it easy is what I'm sayin')

Cable is referred to in Deadpool's alt costume. Deadpool's entrance quote with the costume on is "And you thought Cable wasn't in this game..." Also, Cable is marked as slain in the background poster in the Days of Future Past stage. Gambit is marked as apprehended on the same poster.

Watch the boss battles with the various player characters. More importantly, watch the animations for player characters and some bosses. Then go back and look at Marvel Super Heroes or any of the Vs line again. Hell, I even see War Machine's War Destroyer animation in Iron Man(no MISSILES, but the base animation).

NB: War of the Gems on the SNES actually arrived after the release of MSH in arcades.

Both were preceded by Children of the Atom featuring Akuma as a hidden character. Maybe they'll do two more Origins packs with the vs. Street Fighter games in one and CotA/War of the Gems in the other.

Let's not forget the X-Men SNES game, can't remember what it's subtitle was, that let you play as Cyclops, Psylocke, Wolverine, Beast and uhhhh Nightcrawler? A side scrolling adventure game, but it actually had moves done with QCF motions and such...

X-Men: Mutant Apocalypse, but Gambit is the fifth character, not Nightcrawler (who's in the Konami X-Men arcade game instead). I really liked that game.

Basically the way I understand it is it's going to be most useful against x-factor anchors that like to spam supers and for missing 3 seconds off the front of any power-up super. Definitely not as broken as Fubarduck was playing it up to be though it seems like, unless there's more to it than this.
