Score one for JOURNALISM. Capcom has officially confirmed today that Frank West will indeed be playable in Tatsunoko Vs Capcom.
Thanks to some naughty snooping a few weeks ago, we already kinda knew that. But I have pictures. And a video. This is our first look at the mighty photojournalist in action, and we get a peek at some of his special attacks, which include a body slam and some baseball bat punishment.
There's also a shot of Frank up to some kind of mischief with a Servbot helmet, so that should be interesting. Only thing is, he's kinda ... well, funny-looking. But hey, it's Frank West. I am officially squirming in glee. Check out some screens of the slightly-off star of Dead Rising in the gallery and let us celebrate after the jump.

Also, notice zombie action.
WHERE YO PHOTOJOURNALISM AT?!
Did they change Franks voice?
You're kidding right? Dead Rising was ported to the Wii. Also, No More Heroes and MadWorld.
OH HE SO JOURNALISTIC.
FRANK WEST MAKE CHILDREN HAPPY DANCE
Go play with your Legos, kid. This is an adult conversation.
Now reveal Joe Asakura, and I'll be set.
MuhfukkinGatchamanBitch.
Damn. I have to buy this now, even though I don't own a Wii.
I think I'm more excited about what I'm seeing in the pictures and video than I am specifically about Frank. It just looks like it would be a blast to play.
MEGA BLOCKS FOR LIFE
Yeah, he looks fun as hell to play...but the other options...I would have killed for Megaman X's Zero to pop up in an actual fighter.
