Rumor: C. Viper spotted in Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 photo

Capcom-Unity member Keon may have just outed everyone's favorite pregnant Street Fighter. He (or she) noticed an image on the Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 website. This image features a silhouette of C. Viper's signature pompadour.

Most of the other silhouettes appear to be from previously revealed characters, but there might be a few new shapes in there for your noticing pleasure. Please take a look in the gallery and tell us what you find. You may be the next to have your name up in lights in am amazing, life affirming post such as this one.

Personally, I'm actually a little bummed that C. Viper is likely taking up a coveted seat on Marvel Vs. Capcom 3's roster. I'm not a fan. I'd take Juri, Poison, Maki, R. Mika, or even Ingrid over C. Viper.

Ah well, at least Felicia is in the game. That's sure to be a crowd pleaser.

What's with all the C. Viper hate? I found her to be a refreshing addition to the 78% gi wearing cast of Street Fighter. Plus she has electric hands and fire feet. Neato.

@ Corduroy Turtle - I feel nothing but apathy for C. Viper. I don't hate her by any means. I feel nothing for her.

Maybe I just need to play her more. I used to feel that way about Makoto too, but after I learned how to use her, that all changed.

Of the new characters of SF4, I've always found C. Viper to be the most interesting (even though I play Abel). She seems like a good fit for MvC, can't wait to see some gameplay if this is true.

Bah, C.Viper just doesn't seem like MvC3 material.

Should have been Juri. She's definitely got crazy enough moves and a wild enough design to easily fit in.

@Jonathan Holmes: I guess I can see your side. I would feel like you do now if

this was in MVC3. Completely void of all emotions except disappointment.

I liked that Tatsunoko vs. Capcom featured a representative from every major Street Fighter iteration and had hoped that Marvel vs. Capcom 3 would do something similar. I hoped that it would be Rufus or Abel, but C.Viper is just as awesome.

I love viper TO DEATH
but unless her super and ultras are turned into something else im keeping away from her, its tough enough to use her proficiently in the SSF4 environment, i dont see her translating well into the world of infinite's traps and loops well.

I don't see it as her taking a slot up as much as i see it as MVC having the chance to have more characters than MVC2 (which it likely won't) while having more varied/usable characters. not guile/charlie ,ken/ryu/akuma/sakura, multiple wolverines, ROLL, servbot however needs to stay.

i have to say Viper, Juri and hakan were my favorite additions to the SF franchise, and SSF4(latter two)
hakan or juri in MVC seems more reasonable.


However someone REALLY needs to fix Juri's ultra one and make it a super, while making her super more dramatic and ultra 1. When is the cusotm combo system ever all that helpful when you are literally one bread and butter away from death?

@ Corduroy Turtle - I don't play Street Fighter IV one bit, but C. Viper would definitely be another (literally) colorful addition to a game that is aiming to be colorful in the first place.

@ Shael - Niitsuma has already stated that neither the cast of Rival Schools nor the characters from Power Stone will be joining the game *sigh*
Breath of Fire characters could be good adds!

(Off-topic: Holy crap, some of you need to get some avatars up in this business. There's like 10 of you in here! )


I was excited at first, so excited that I went back and played SSF4 for the first time in months. Then I came back disappointed - if they're going to add someone else from Street Fighter (Ryu/Chun is good enough IMO), why couldn't it be Juri? Gah, can't win 'em all.

If she is in me = sad they could have put in other characters then that she is not even that well known the SF universe only appearing in SF4 series I think they should have given the slot to some other character.

Also, C.Viper confirmed.

I wonder if her cancelling would be viable in such a fast paced game like MvC 3. In SSF4, those cancels were her best mindtricks.

Viper is an obvious shoe in for this game seeing as she has the same moveset as Captain Commando, from her Seismo Hammer/Captain Collider down to her normals.

Also, what's with all the scrub hate for Trish. Those who know love her since she basically replaces Storm AND Strider from MvC2 (and is currently the best character in the game).

Ugh, I'm with most people here, why C. Viper? Nobody gives a shit about her as a character. As much as I sort of dislike Rufus, I'd muuuuuch rather have him, Viper is just ugh, really?

Shitty design (sorry Nishimura/Ikeno), shiity character taking up a space that could have been for a far more beloved character.

Bayonetta is Sega/Platinum Games, not Capcom. Platinum Games is just composed of former members of Capcom's Clover Studio.

THIS IS AWESOME!!! IT'S LIKE MY WEAT DREAMS ARE COMING TRUE!!!

I'M A FAN OF VIPER BUT HER INCLUSION ON THE MVC3 ROSTER TOTALLY MAKES SENSE!!!

WHY? BECAUSE IT'S THE FLASHIEST CHARACTER IN SF4 AND HER MOVE-SET IS A CARBON COPY OF CAPTAIN COMMANDO IN MVC2!!!

IT WOULD BE AWESOME IF SHE IS INCLUIDED!!!.
Arturoaquinojr's Avatar - Comment posted on 08/29/2010 09:05
Arturoaquinojr
and Juri wouldn't make sense in the MvC universe cuz she isn't so flashy as viper, she is more of a physical character.unstead viper is more about controling a lot of space and she has a lot of movility. and she is pretty much a female version of captain commando just look at this video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gzsuSl6jcfQ

she is a perfect fit for MvC3.

i like Juri but i LOVE C.Viper.

C.Viper is one of the ugliest designed characters I have ever seen. Right next to Bayonetta.

I hate women with tanned skin and those stupid pulled back fringes.

Personally, I'd have preferred Rufus or Juri, but SFIV representation of any kind works for me. Still waiting on Haggar, though. If he makes it in, I could care less if every other character is Beak and Howard the Duck.

@Bakewell: Now I REALLY hope Phoenix Wright is in the game.

I will pre-order one or me and one as an early birthday present for my brother if Phoenix Wright is confirmed. That's 100% more people pre-ordering when compare to this who will cancel. You know what to do Capcom.

Every Street Fighter character with a few exceptions are boring in Marvel Vs. Capcom and should be thrown out in place of the dozens of more interesting and diverse Capcoms characters. Who the hell wants to play as boring ass Chun Li over Daeadpool or Dante?

There is something that's bothering me: the silhouette and the SFIV art look exactly the same. All the other characters recieved new poses and arts, so why they would re-use the same image again?
Is Capcom becoming lazy with this game?
