Few days ago Capcom dropped a whole lot pleasant surprise especially for those who grew up in Arcade game era as we are getting Marvel vs Capcom fighting game collection! For this particular collection of theirs, Capcom doesn't cut any corners and goes straight for the jugular offering 7 Marvel x Capcom collab games which are some of the Crown jewels in the Arcade games golden era including the popular Marvel vs Capcom & Marvel vs Capcom 2! Estimated for Q4 release, Marvel vs Capcom Fighting Collection will be also available in Physical Release for PS4 & Nintendo Switch.
Among many Capcom's classic collections, Marvel vs Capcom Fighting Collection is one of the most special case and Capcom really make the most out of the IP Lease renewal. One cannot understate This Marvel x Capcom collection, because It literally take almost 30 years for this collection to be realized despite Capcom doing most of the legwork. Perhaps this possibly one of the best Capcom Classics collection could happen because the Marvel IP holder in question need some money after squandering so much to gratify their so-called Vanities. Hopefully this could pave ways for other Capcom collab Arcade works like Alien vs Predator or Cadillacs & Dinosaurs to see some re-release. Personally still hoping for another re-release of Chronicles of Mystara.
Of all 7 Marvel x Capcom games, I have played 6 out of 7 which I played PS1 version of Marvel vs Capcom the most. I still remember fondly crashing in my Friend's place to play this game using Megaman or Warmachine most of the time. I forgot the exact one but I most likely never get to play Xmen vs Street Fighter as the arcade cabinets that my local arcade have goes straight to Marvel vs Street Fighter which Omega Red served as the worst opponent I ever faced in that game. While most of the available game in this collection are Fighting games, Capcom also include Punisher Beat em Up game as part of the IP renewal agreement which is a decent beat-em-ups on its own too. While I am never particularly good at fighting game, I will definitely get the physical copy just to relieve some of the best part of my Childhood. Lastly through this turn of event, I just realize that Arcade Game Avengers in Galactic Storm was not part of Capcom's Marvel repertoire and was made by DataEast back then.
