In a recent chat with Videogamer.com, Capcom's Vice President of business development and strategic planning, (that's VPOBDASP for short), Christian Svensson (CS for short, presumably), said the company had plenty more where Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix came from, and would "potentially" be bringing more of its classic fighters into the salon for the old HD makeover. The DL from CS:
"Are we done doing HD Remixes? No we're not done. But the next ones that we do will be even better, based on what we learned."
And what better place to start than with Marvel VS Capcom 2? When posed with the question, Svensson had this to say:
"I won't say it doesn't need it. Marvel would be great to do. There's obviously a fan base for it. It's probably our most requested title. Unfortunately, I wish I had news to share on that front but I don't."
Not a concrete affirmation, but hopeful words nonetheless. When asked for comment, I had this to say:
"Of course you should! What are you, f*cking crazy?"
So Capcom is planning more HD remixes. Duh, right? We could probably have all counted on that one. What's interesting here is that Mr. Svensson was asked about an HD remake of Marvel VS Capcom 2 and didn't spit out his coffee with a vehement "No." What's also interesting is that I found an abbreviation for everything in this post except Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix. Fancy that!
What are you guys hoping the next lucky contestant in Capcom's back catalog will be?

YES!
AND DARKSTALKERS TOO!
POCKET FIGHTER HD REMIX!!!!!
Unless they just make all the capcom characters not shit anymore and bump the lower million characters under MSP/Scrub/Rowtron up and keep the shenanigans still.
But I want to see more HDRemix's.
It's no one's fault. The artists from Udon did a great job. The problem is, there are certain animation techniques you can use with low res sprites that you can't use with drawings. If you try to, you're characters will come out looking like bad flash animations at best, spazzy, seizure prone invalids at worst.
Akuma, Zangief, and Ken/Ryu ended up in the later camp. Their standing animations make them look like they're in the middle of getting scanned my Michael Ironsides.
I wonder what HD Darkstalkers would look like? That always had some nice art.
I'd abso-fucking-lutely buy that.
OR They could add Makoto to the SF4 roster, but that's not the question here.
Haha EX characters in SF4! Only in my dreams....Doctrine Dark or Area; fun...overload!
What I meant to say was "SSFT2 HDR was a great first step, and if Capcom can work out a few of the kinks in the the process of animating their HD sprites, I'm sure a new game made in that style would look fantastic.
That said, I want Final Fight HD Remix more than anything else. That, or Strider HD."
Ok, enough comment retracting. I'm heading back to Wal Mart to dip my balls in the cherry coke.
Mega Man 2 and 3.
It's a thought. lol. Oh, and of course, the obvious...
MvC 2!
However, Rival Schools and Darkstalkers are high priority on my list. I wanna play with Kyosuke and Lord Raptor again! :D
and a console port of BATTLE CIRCUIT!
also Strider.
Here's hoping they do CVS2 HD Remix
Rez, MvC2, and the original Perfect Dark are the only titles I would be willing to buy. One down, one on the way (seemingly), now Rare... let's chat.
*shot hard*
Way of the Samurai 2.
Just sayin'. You published it, and it needs it.
See Bionic Commando RE and SSF2THDR etc
Yes and Yes

forget MvC2. if it's not getting fixed, i could care less.
gimme HD Darkstalkers, Power Stone, and Rival Schools. Hop to it.
Marvel vs Capcom
Capcom vs SNK 2
Darkstalkers
Saturday Nigh Slam Masters (YES!)
Street Fighter 3: Third Strike
All of that with online play and pretty HD graphics, get on it.
My Dreamcast is about to kick the bucket D:
The original Powerstone would be nice... NNAAOOOOW!!!
The Adventures of Tron Bonne or GTFO!
And obviously MvC2, hell CvS2 is also fantastic. But really, 3S and A/Z3.
I'm kidding!
I kid, I kid.
you know, MvC2 has never even been released in Europe besides arcades (I'm fortunate enough to live 30 minutes from an MvC2 arcade machine, though.). I think it's about effing time that we get the game, and what better way to do that than with HD graphics, online play all for the price of 1200 MS Points? no way, that's how. cept if it was 800.
CvS:Pro (and CvS2 I guess)
SFA3 (complete rebalancing and all characters from the PSP version)
Rival Schools
Any of the Darkstalkers games
SF3:2I or 3S (prefer 2I's gameplay but LOVE Makoto)
Oh and I guess MvC2 (MSH is so much better it's not even funny)
And the one I can't believe no one has said: Dungeons and Dragons
Give me these and I will pay for every single one of them. Don't give them to me and I will whine and bitch. Do us all a favor. REMAKE THESE GOD DAMMIT.
Marvel vs Capcom
Darkstalkers
Street Fighter 3: Third Strike
BUT MOST OF ALL: MARVEL SUPER HEROS Vs. CAPCOM
CAPTAIN COMMANDO HD REMIX!
(Especially since the game supports up to 4 players, why the hell not?)
I suggest they remake Fighting Vipers. Hitting somebody so hard that they're armor explodes? Fuck Yea!
damn.
ALSO WILY WARS 2 PLZ.
come on capcom hop to it! Don't disappoint me now.
Why would Capcom be able to remake a SEGA game? (SEGA should do FIGHTERS MEGAMIX 2, though.)
