There it is, folks, in the gallery below. The final, official box art for Tatsunoko Vs Capcom. Is it everything you'd hoped it would be? Works for me, I'd say. It's got Frank West on it, after all.
Either way, now you know what to look for when the game hits store shelves in North America on January 26th. how do you guys think it stacks up against the box art for the original Japanese release? Who's buying a Wii for this?

If that header image is the art, though, then I approve.
I beat the shit out of people with JOURNALISM at Capcom Fight Club last week. I <3 Frank West!
Or maybe that's just wishful thinking.
They're beaks.
I thought they revealed all the extra characters? On the Capcom side you have Frank West and Zero and on the Tatsunoko side you have Tekkaman Blade and Joe the Condor. That makes the roster 50:50 between Capcom and Tatsunoko.
I'm really liking the cover though. It's more like the old Vs games covers with each side staring the other down.
Shit, yeah.
Except they cut the big genie from the roster due to licensing issues, so there's one less on the Tatsunoko side after the current reveals. There were 5 characters implicated in that HTML leak before they started revealing characters, and at the moment I forget who the fifth one was. But when Zero and Joe the Condor were revealed they were indeed labeled as the "final" additions to the roster. So.... yeah, who knows? I'm willing to bet plans were scrapped for the final character at the last moment for some reason.
Someone probably just posted all this before me.
This is pretty cool looking, I wonder what the EU boxart will look like...
But the big genie (yeah I've forgotten his name too) is on the new box art so maybe they sorted out the licensing issues. He's at the back on the right facing the Lost Planet mecha thingy.
The EU box art is exactly the same. This is the German one but you get the idea.
Gamers better support this title.Capcom's done its part so we need to support it. This time, its a real game and not another watered down port or a spin-off title.
There's no good reason why this game should bomb.
January is going to be hot month.I plan on picking up Tatsunoko vs. Capcom along with No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle.
Is he wearing eye liner??
I hate (Legends) Megaman. Although Batsu, who is all the way in the fucking back should swap positions with him.
"But the big genie (yeah I've forgotten his name too) is on the new box art so maybe they sorted out the licensing issues. He's at the back on the right facing the Lost Planet mecha thingy."
That's not Hakushon Daimou, that's Gold Lightan. Daimou's still gone.
For the record, the fifth new playable character was supposed to be Yatterman #2, #1's girlfriend.
I noticed that too. Very rad.
Everyone's features look almost "too" soft. Other than that, totally bitchin'.
Especially JoemotherfuckingThemotherfuckingCondor.
Yes, Gatchaman fan, right here.
Also, Viewtiful Joe's and Hurricane Polymar's mid-air glee = fruity delight.
Ah screw it. Zero, Tekkaman Blade, Viewtiful Joe and Megaman Volnutt are in it. I'm sold already. And that artwork just tops it all off.
Is one of those bird people kicking Viewtiful Joe in the kneecap?
Anyway, the boxart is way more 'cool' and 'dynamic' looking than the original Japanese one.
