Description
I remember back when I played Marvel vs. Capcom 2 that I used to fantasize about seeing Dante and Deadpool in the next MVC game. Even though MVC3 never saw the light of day for about a decade or so, I still never gave up hope. Then lo and behold, MVC3 came out, and with Dante and Deadpool in it, no less. I can't tell you how ecstatic I was to receive that bit of news.Now that it's out, I find myself fantasizing about seeing a whole bunch of other characters fighting each other. Who knows? Maybe I'll get lucky again. So, I thought I'd present a wishlist of sorts for characters I'd like to see in MVC4.
Chuck Greene from Dead Rising 2. Screw Frank West. What's he gonna do when Galactus brings the Power Cosmic down on us? Take his picture? I'd rather see Chuck take a Paddlesaw to that purple bastard's midsection. Or maybe he could bring out his Freedom Bear to lay down suppressing fire while he goes in for the kill with his Knife Gloves. The stuff this guy can do was made for games like MVC.
Venom, of Spider-Man fame, naturally. Leaving him out of MVC3 was a huge mistake. Hopefully with enough votes on that Capcom-Unity poll, that mistake will be corrected.
Q from Street Fighter 3: 3rd Strike. Because dammit, SF3 characters need some love too.
I might get around to inking this if I get the inclination.

Yeah, everyone is saying Frank West, but they also seem to ignore the fact that there's a second Dead Rising.
Venom, eh. I would prefer to see Sandman, myself.
Aren't there enough Street Fighter characters? Though this Q guy looks pretty cool.

Frank was more than able to hold his own in "Tatsunoko vs. Capcom", but I think he needs to stay in that series. Chuck, on the other hand, would rock as the designated MvsC "Dead Rising" Rep. He's got more than enough firepower and ingenuity to put up a fight.
As far as Eddie Brock is concerned, Venom hasn't been relevant in over a decade. They've tried to keep the symbiote's presence alive with others, but none will ever beat the original Lethal Protector. And with MvsC's rule of using current incarnations of characters when possible, Eddie's chances are slim.
And I am disappointed that they went through all the trouble of promoting a female Carnage, only to find out that she was just Cletus's courier. (Next game, I'm putting in a vote for Mayhem, MC2-verse be damned.)
Q? ... I like your unique choice, but aside from Alex, Dudley, and the girls, nobody gives much of a damn about the SF3 cast, especially the "3rd Strike"-only cast. If Capcom was to put in a SF3 rep, it would end up being Ibuki solely on account of fanservice.

I think they can fit Eddie in somehow. I mean, if MVC was adamant about using current incarnations of characters, we wouldn't have a Phoenix at all, 'cause she'd be dead.
She is still dead, isn't she?
Plus there's always Anti-Venom.

Marvel usually brings Phoenix back whenever they need a sacrificial lamb for whatever storyline they've got running. So they can pretty much throw her into anything without regard to current continuity.
But man, Jean Grey has to be the suckiest X-Men of all time. She lives only to die, again and again and again, just like Kenny. She could probably drop dead from a paper cut.

Also on the continuity subject, shouldn't they have the Bucky incarnation of Captain America in the game?

Awesome work here dude. You just know capcom would give a BS reason for not having Chuck in MVC4 kinda like what thet did to Megaman and the planned Silver Surfer hell even Pheniox wright... I Could make a bloody moveset for Pheniox Wright.

I hope everybody knows that the Venom they want is the Anti-Venom these days.
You remember Mac Gargan? The Scorpion? HE was the last Venom before it was announced that Venom will now be, of ALL people, Flash Thompson. And if they're doing the whole "as they are recently" thing, chances are it'll be a Venom that won't be Eddie Brock. Maybe even a whole new Venom altogether.
And knowing the internet, that WON'T be what they want.
IN ANY CASE! I woulda liked to see the monstrosities Chuck Greene could whip out, too.
And it's INSANE that this, apparently is only in pencil. Dear GOD, man. XD

Capcom has used the original versions for these characters before. If Venom is in, it'll most likely be Brock with Anti-Venom, Gargan, and Flash as alts.

Yeah, I heard of the whole 'Black ops Venom' thing. What actually pisses me of though, is that they're bringing back Carnage.

Personally, I wouldn't mind if one of the Smiths from Killer7 was in the game. I mean, K7 WAS one of the original Capcom five.

Chuck Greene I'm all for, Frank West has had his turn, give the new guy his shot
Venom...eh, never really been a fan of the character so I'm pretty ambivalent
Never played SF3 so no comment
As for my personal three characters I would want
Despite the confusion with name, Ryu from Breath Of Fire
A Vertical Tank from Steel Battalion
Namor for my Marvel Guy, I mean he is one of the long-running Marvel characters

Hey, don't diss Frank West! He's covered wars, y'know!
Venom... damn right they better have him in!
As for Q... eh, don't know him much. I'd prefer Elena. XD

To be fair, Frank West did put up quite a fight in Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom (as comedic as it was).

OmegaMorph [2011-02-19 15:26:38 +0000 UTC]
The other two I would expect. Q not so much. Anyways, if Frank is such a "ram eater" than maybe Chuck would be a better alternative.

If Q was put in the game, it'd be a nice change of pace from Alex being the only representative from SF3.
Capcom needs more villains on their side of the roster though. Wesker and Akuma are not enough.

Maybe the other reason Venom wasn't in the game is because Spidey has the black suit as an alternate costume?
But yeah, wish Venom was there...
I just hope Capcom don't troll us by giving us Anti-Venom

HELL YEAH CHUCK GREENE! whats better than the lovechild of mcguyver and chuck norris? XD definitely more suitable for a game like MvC3. if not knife gloves then lightsab-..er, I mean, "laser sword"
and if I had to suggest a character from 3rd strike.. I'd either want ibuki (we need more ACTUAL ninjas in the media now more than ever) or dudly (because if anyone should kick galactus' ass, they might as well be genteel while doing so).

I'm with you on Chuck Greene, I LOVE Frank West, and would also love him in MvC 3, but Chuck definitely needs to be in there, he's VERY badass.
There's a reason why people compare him to Chuck Norris.
