Tatsunoko Vs Capcom launch event set for Jan 23rd!! photo

This rules for three reasons -- 1) I get to play Tatsunoko Vs Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars three days earlier than planned, 2) I don't have to worry about immediately dividing my attention between Tatsunoko Vs Capcom and No More Heroes 2, and 3) I'm going to score a perfect on Seth Killian with my Viewtiful Joe/Batsu team.

OK, maybe that last one isn't really going to happen, but I'll at least get to try my chance at it. Actually I'm going to boot up my Japanese build of the game as soon as I'm done writing this post and get practicing. Then I'm going to dig up all the games I own by Tatsunoko Vs Capcom's producer, Niitsuma-san. He'll be be at the event, doing autographs and being awesome.

And yeah, I'm totally going to make him cry with guilt for not putting Phoenix Wright in the game.

Hit the link below for more info on the event, including TOWELS.

TvC and NMH2 may make me buy another Wii by the end of the month... and keep it this time. When I sold my first one, I thought I might be able to brush off missing out on stuff like this, but as more and more content gets put out on both games, I'm starting to feel like I just can't ignore them.

And I'll admit, I would've probably been able to brush of TvC if it weren't for that damn sexy stick that Madcatz is going to release. Not only can I now play TvC with a decent quality stick, it opens up tons of potential for VC and all those past fighting games to be all the more better.

I wish I could afford the game and the stick.

Apparently, Kotaku says that the game won't be sold there. If it's true, then that sucks. I'd still probably go there, but what's the point of an event to celebrate the release of a game if you're not going to be able to buy the game there?

I suppose now is a bad time to bring up that the animated portions of the endings won't be seeing an English translation?

@ The Average Guy- That would be a first for a launch event of this type, but not a first for there being confusion ahead of time. I actually called ahead to see if they'd be selling NSMB Wii at the event, and they wouldn't tell me. Then I got there, and there was a line for the game going around the block.

So I guess we'll see.

Ah, I had forgotten to consider how my team was going to play out now that the US version is finally coming up with new characters!

I was digging Karas + Ken the Eagle. Think I'll try and give Joe the Condor + Viewtiful Joe (Joe team! As that is my real name, haha) a run. I was ok with VJ in the Japanese version, but I think I could work my skills with him up a bit more.

@Jonathan Holmes: I guess you have a point. May as well wait and hope for the best. I just hope that they do wind up selling the game early there. Otherwise, that'd make the event pretty much a preview for a game that will be released 3 days later. >_>
