**UPDATED again this time with SNK producer expressing interest in Capcom vs SNK 3 and SNK vs Capcom: Chaos

*uPDATED bottom of first post with more links on Ryota Niitsuma and Ono mentioning CvS3 and CvS2 **

Ok i recently saw this news story about MvC 3 and it included some comments from Capcom official Ryota Niitsuma about a possible Capcom vs SNK 3 (CvS3) game. :woot:

(He even signed a CvS2 copy) :cool:

Marvel vs capcom 3 : Des informations exclusifs et une surprise ? - Playstation 3 News : Uniquement les news chaudes - GAMEBLOG.fr

The news story is in French, but I used Google translator to translate the parts where CvS 3 is mentioned.

French to English translation

"According Ryoto Niitsuma, Capcom vs. SNK 3 will only develop if there is a significant number of requests from fans"

"Among all this good news ****(some tidbits about MvC3), the best news is probably possible to come from Capcom vs SNK 3."**

You can verify the translations yourself.

So there you have it again, yet one more Capcom official like the story that ran a year or so ago from another Capcom official, we have to keep asking about Capcom Vs. SNK 3 and get others to ask for it too if we want to see it happen.

CAPCOM: WE WANT CAPCOM VS SNK 3!!

*UPDATED with more links of Niitsuma mentioning CvS3 or MvCvS

"Then, before I leave, since everybody is always telling you on Twitter or wherever else what they want from you and Capcom… I want Capcom vs. SNK 3."

Ono: Ahhhh. [laughs] I wasn’t necessarily sold on that idea until I played The King of Fighters XIII. I’m actually really impressed with it, and think they did a great job with it. So, you know, I’m open to the idea, at least more than I was before."

“Okay, last question. SNK vs. Capcom 3. When’s it happening?”

Ono: I hear requests for that all the time. In fact literally, every day on Twitter, literally several times a day, so I know it’s something on the fan’s minds.

Honestly, from my point of view, but the time we got to Capcom vs. SNK 2, they did pretty much everything they could do with that game That’s a really well polished game. I don’t think that we could top it. I think if we were to do a three, we would have to do something different and take it in a new direction because I wouldn’t want to compete with two since it was so darn good.

But a lot has changed with SNK side as well. It’s a different company now than it was then. We had a lot of connections back then, we were really friendly with one another. But frankly, I don’t know a lot of people there right now.

Things have changed so much, so there could be a bit of a hurdle getting something down there, just making these business connections again first. But you know, who knows. I can’t say one way or another whether something like that can be done.

But I can say that it would probably be different, and it would start with a lot of negotiations and just getting to know these guys again because it’s a lot of people we’re not familiar with."

MVC Producer Interested in Marvel vs. Capcom vs. SNK ? DualShockers

Following are excerpts and links of SNK higher ups showing considerable interest in sequels to CvS2 and SvC:

"Playstation Blog: We still miss SVC Chaos and Capcom vs SNK titles. Do you think we can see a new crossover with characters from both companies again?
Yamamoto: Crossover games not only provide excitement to fans, but to us developers as well, so I’m hoping we could do it again someday. In order to make that a reality, we’ll continue to do our best and make KOF bigger and better.’’

"7. SPEKSNK.org: Crossovers are hot right now. Can we expect any with SNK PLAYMORE characters on it? I’m certain fighting games community wait anxiously for a new game crossing Capcom and SNK…

**KY:**As this is something very valuable and stimulating for us as well as the fans, I sincerely hope we will have the opportunity to participate in the development of a collaboration title sometime in the future.
Therefore, I will continue to promote “KOF” so that this dream comes true."

"SNK-Capcom.com: Besides SNK fans, CAPCOM fans have also been dying for a sequel to “SNK vs CAPCOM”. Do you have any plans to make a sequel to this game?

SNKP: We are sorry, but we can’t answer to this question. However, we know that this game is highly appreciated among fans, and that they’re waiting for a sequel. There are also many “SNK vs CAPCOM” fans at SNK PLAYMORE, and we also hear from people who want us to work in collaboration with other game companies as well. It is not impossible to see a sequel to “SNK vs CAPCOM” one day if fan requests keep getting bigger."

Signed! Would love to see this!

3

Signed as long as it’s not by the SF4 team. I don’t want this shit to be slower than SF4.

4

Yea, they’ll probably get someone else to make the slow 2.5D engine.

5

Don’t see what’s to get worked up about, not to be a buzzkill. It was common knowledge that CvS3 would depend on fan demand, being that Capcom’s last two big fighters were at the behest of fans. Darkstalkers and CvS3 will likewise be at the behest of fans.

And I wouldn’t mind the SF4 team developing the game, but it would probably require a different director. Somebody who could fully realize the half-done concept of multiple mechanics in one game (me and my guys are designing a game that does just that).

Or it could have a brand new gameplay engine (and spare the use of the term engine, know it all’s), and go for something new. But definitely go for a more gritty style of 2.5D than SSF4, but not as action figure glossy as MvC3 (lovely as it is).

6

Signed.

I would absolutely love Capcom vs SNK 3 to be made.

7

Looking Forward to CvS3.
Signed!!!
If it looks like SF4, I will be sad.

8

All I ask is that SONIKA BUU man does all the voices for every single character.

EVERY. SINGLE. CHARACTER.

9

no more vs. games for a bit plx. kthxbai. TvC:UAS one year, MvC3 the next, why don’t we cool it for a while and then make DS4?

10

You realize the Vs series is essentially two separate sub-series? The ‘Marvel Vs’ and ‘Vs SNK’. They are only related in concept.

11

CVS3 will probably happen around 2013. The market will be flooded for this year and next. Then in 2015 we’ll get SF5. It’s all planned out.

12

That sounds about right, i hope it turns out this way.

PS: “nominate for an article” if you feel this should get more coverage.

13

lol more “only if the demand is there”

Seriously, it’s getting boring now.

Whatever happened to the darkstalkers 4 thing, did they ever get the 100 billion signatures they wanted.

14

sounds gay

15

We’re already getting SFxT after MvC3.

Personally though, I’d prefer if Niitsuma’s team went straight to DS4.

16

Where do I sign?

17

I’m on board. I wouldn’t mind if the SSFIV team developed it as long as it doesn’t use the SSFIV engine. VS SNK shouldn’t have the same pitfalls that game did.

18

Signed.

19

I know both of these things, the point I’m trying to make is that we’ll soon have our (capcom’s) thumbs in too many pies methinks. No point in one company oversaturating the market… unless they’re all amazing games (which somehow i doubt). I may just be pessimistic, I just think… we should enjoy what we’ll shortly have for a while.

20

this is hilariously dumb. EVERY game developer says the exact same thing about EVERY possible sequel: “well if enough fans ask for it, we will do it.”

confirmation? lol.
