Gamers saw a rekindling of the Street Fighter franchise in 2008 with the series' fourth installment, and then a similar story with Marvel vs. Capcom just three years later.
With SNK releasing King of Fighters 14 back in 2016, and Capcom games chugging right along as they are, perhaps 2018 is the perfect time for yet another melding of the two.
A Capcom vs. SNK 3 would surely bring a few old school competitors out of the woodwork, and the current FGC boom has tons of new faces that would certainly be open to trying out such a title, especially after hearing the praises seasoned FGC members sing for the series.
SNK's bankruptcy brought the iconic Capcom vs. SNK series to a halt. But the company is back from the dead and is collaborating with Capcom again, setting the stage for the series' return.
This time, let SNK take the lead in their style of animation. I love what Capcom did but I want to see it the other way. Oh and dont forget about Tekken X Street Fighter.
I think Capcom is good at combining art styles when they want to. The art style for MVC3 was great. Also really liked Tatsunoko vs Capcom's visuals. I wouldn't mind some hybrid with SNK, but for the love of God, it should definitely be Capcom that takes the lead on the gameplay.
SNK did take the lead in the very last crossover game. Where were you years ago? They just rereleaed/ported SNK vs Cap Chaos recently on current consoles/pc
Only if they use Shinkiro's work for actual character models.
His artstyle is always relegated to print & promotional material but never the characters themselves.
I’d love a Capcom vs Sega, actually. Streets of Rage, Shenmue, Virtua Fighter, Yakuza, Shinobi, Valkyria Chronicles, Golden Axe, Persona perhaps, etc.
Can't wait for the next collection. Last couple of years have been great if you liked / like old school fighters.
Trevor Walker said: Fighting games have always been able to simultaneously experiment and innovate while staying true to their roots in the best of ways. Mechanics change, crossovers take place, and evolution occurs. One of the best examples of all three can be seen in the coveted guest character.
The Street Fighter series has a long history, but which are the seven best games the franchise has yet offered to gamers?
Only if they add other characters from each universe.
Capcom should add characters from games like the final fight series, sfa series, captain commando and street fighter.
And SNK should add from games like world heroes, garou, rage of the dragons, ninja masters and king of fighters.
But I would love another one.
Kyo FTW
My favorite fighting series of all time. Capcom vs SNK2 is flawless.
Funny how Tekken 7 is the first game in a long while where a Capcom character and an SNK character can do battle again after more than a decade
Is it about time? It’s long overdue. And while we’re at it, where the hell is Soul Calibur???
