Anyway, the creator, Ryouta Niizuma, wants to make a sequel, hoping to please more and sell more.
Also note that he mentioned the characters that didn’t make it in the final 22 (they were saving for more in the sequel), either out of copyright issues and balance. Although he might consider them for the sequel.
Tatsunoko Side :
Joe the Condor (Gatchaman)
Yatterman #2
Shulato (from Shulato)
Soul Taker
Nakahara Komugi
Daikyojin (mecha of Yattodetaman, another Time Bokan series anime)
Berg Katse (enemy of Gatchaman)
Tekkaman Evil
Braiking Boss (enemy of Casshern)
JJ (Zillion)
Capcom Side :
Leon
Nash (Charlie)
Date Masamune
Arthur
Ibuki
Vega (M. Bison)
Lei-Lei/Hsein-Ko
Zero Gouki (Cyberbots mecha… who acts like Gouki)
Tiara Hime (look up Gaia Masters, another Japan only, obscure Capcom game)
If I were a betting man, I’d bet it would be less than a year before the sequel. The engine is in place, its just a matter of adding characters and tweaking what is there.
The game needs Samurai Pizza Cats. I’d love to see a sequel because it seems like they were just testing the waters with TvC. Seems to be like the XvSF of a new era.
This is true. After all, CoTA through MSHSF came out on an annual basis. What we need to know is how long Capcom has the license for, or if it’s on a game by game basis like the CvS games were.
@StuartHayden - XVSF and MSHSF came out within a year of each other. Of course, that didn’t stop people from disowning MSHSF and going back to XVSF almost immediately, but you get the point. The engine is in place and they’ve got the license for the time being, so they’ll probably make at least three games unless there’s some sort of limit like there was with the CvS games.
