The wait is almost over, fightan fans. Capcom says it will reveal the four new playable characters in the US and European version of its upcoming Tatsunoko Vs Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars at the 2009 Tokyo Game Show. There will be two new fighters representing each respective company, but with Phoenix Wright looking unlikely and my own humble wish pictured above even less probable, all we can do is guess as to who they might be.
Capcom also says the new release will feature an improved online mode, with a better skill level matchmaking system and the ability for US and European players to duke it out with each other from across the pond. Speaking of which, I'm not sure which of Tatsunoko's franchises even made it as far as Europe, aside from Samurai Pizza Cats. Who would you guys over in the UK like to see?
We'll find out for sure in a few weeks when TGS kicks off. Until then, you've got plenty of room after the jump to make your guesses.

Oh, and leaving out a legendary character like Speed Racer is a dodgy decision.
From Capcom:
Waka from Okami
Link from the various capcom zelda games
From Tatsinu.....the japanese thing
Mach 5 from Speed Racer (good job, taumpytears)
Space Ace from well Space Ace
The new characters are enough to make me buy it again though.
I actually had never played a game from that studio before now, so I didnt know what to expect other than a sidescroller. I just dont see the why there is so much hype over it after I finally got a chance to play it.
Way to get your feelings hurt over my "imports". I was not bragging at all, just clearly stating how I felt about Tatsunoko Vs Capcom, and then thought I would add in my two cents on Muramasa. No need to prove your "I R MAN I RULE INTERNETZ" lifestyle to anyone.
I didn't say speed racer was in it, I said the mach 5 was.
Where did you hear that info anyway, surely it could not have escaped the 35 ears of god
Right the fuck now.
Also, I don't see why people are getting their knickers in a twist over the word "improved," but whatever.
They'd be a great addition to the line up!
I'm hoping for Godhand Gene, even if it's incredibly unlikely.
That's from the originally sourced article, quoting Ryota Niitsuma's own words. Perhaps you'd like to call Capcom Japan and take your complaint up with him instead.
Anything else, or are you really just here to troll? Because if that's the case, let me know now.
kk thnks
Again, regardless of your apparent aversion to the word and whether the Jp version boasted any online whatsoever, according to the article, that's what he said. I'm simply telling you what he said.
Seriously now. You done? Because you're about to be whether you like it or not if you keep it up.
Topher, go be a gopher and don't feed the troll, all these comments here bore me.
You can go on calling me whatever you like, especially "kiddo," as I'm 30 and don't mind the kind compliment.
Let's carry on; surely everyone has something better to do.
...and it probably will be Dante...
Topher just sourced the original article, it's not like they were his own words, you know.
Also, screw Dante. There, I said it.
VERGIL.
Mospeada's Inbit from Tatsu plz.
Also, Dr. Salvador ftw.
New random blunt object/projectile weapon each match.
Shoma could use some love.
So could Jin Saotome.
Dr. Wily would be the shit.
MMX-era Zero is a thought.
Strider Hiryu is always welcome.
We never heard a thing about Linn Kurosawa again.
Donovan never got any crossover love.
In that respect, neither did Jon Talbain.
Ryoma, Falcon or Wang-Tang could be used in a pinch.
Okami Amaterasu would be a great nod, but I think Waka is still a better choice.
Mike Haggar has never been in a fighting game, outside of an alt costume.
Captain Commando is begging for a comeback.
Leon or Chris would be superb.
I still think Waka is the best choice, however. I don't believe I'm wrong in thinking that option is the most obvious one to take.

Macross/Robotech or Teknoman/Tekkaman Blade please. Also Braiking Boss from Casshern or Dio/Leda from Casshern SINS.
Capcom Hopes:
Zero, Phoenix Wright, Okami Amaterasu, M. Bison, Gene for the GOD HAND!
But yeah, any of those and I'll re-buy this.
