Description
Digging up more old Sega Addicts stuff!Back in the day we did a feature that proposed a Sega vs Capcom fighting game, and so I drew a ton of Sega characters in Capcom's style, in simulated pixel graphics. I had posted a group shot before (Sega vs Capcom ), but there were a few added since, and I wanted to lay them out in a way that showed the full characters. Some of these are pretty obscure, and might only be remembered by old geeks like me.
There were more I had planned on doing, but ran out of time. What are some old Sega character you would have liked to see in a vs game?

I would have also gone for a Puyo character and a Platinum character. Possibly at least one female from the Sonic series, too.

Oh, that would have been cool! I had planned on adding Bayonetta at some point, but I ran out of time to keep working on these.

Would you consider posting the unpixelated artwork for Nino if you still have it? I've been looking for a good artwork of him and I found this so I made an account to ask. I'd greatly appreciate it!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Sure! Glad you like him! Would it be easier if I sent you the artwork instead? I can email you a Photoshop file with layers, or just a high-res JPEG or TIFF. Let me know! ^_____^

A photoshop file would be really great. I can message you my email. Thanks a lot! I wanted to use the image for an icon in a hypothetical Sega fighting game roster I'm making.

That sounds awesome! Are you going to post the roster anywhere? It'd be fun to see who you pick!

I know this was made like two years ago, but I'd like to see Red from Gunstar Heroes, Pulseman or Opa-Opa from Fantasy Zone.
Also this is really good. I wish something like this existed.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you! I wish it was a real game, too.
Ah, good choices! There were a lot of other characters I meant to get to, but sadly never had the time. I think Fantasy Zone would have made an awesome level for the fighting game! All the crazy imagery going on in the background (including a cameo by Opa-Opa) while the fight goes on? That would be amazing!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, a Fantasy Zone stage would be awesome.
I'm probably gonna replace Opa-Opa with Segata Sanshiro, the Japanese Sega Saturn mascot.
Seriously, he's a ninja that beats up kids and stops missiles. That would be beyond amazing.

Oh, man! How cool would that be? I had thought about including him... maybe as a boss character.

Sadly Sega would get crushed on a per character basis. I mean what is expected of B.D. Joe, Green Mask, Beat, Alex Kid and Ulala? Drive a Taxi, use weak wrestling moves, spray paint people in the face, play rock, paper, scissors and force them to dance? And what about Ryo from Shenmue? At least he knows some martial arts. Most of these would be interesting though.
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Ha, ha! True. Though, to be fair, Alex Kidd's no pushover.
Plus, Sega's got plenty of heavy hitters on their side; I'd think Astal, Xavier, Neo Zeed, Midknight, Hierophant, Shinobi and the Sonic and Virtua Fighter characters could hold their own against most of the Capcom roster. If only we'd get a chance to see that...

I was mostly nit picking the ones I had mentioned. Some would probably be able to hold their own. However I doubt as many people know of these Sega classic heroes as they do Capcom for what ever reasons. I only even know of Astal because a video demo was playing in retro game store. And Bark because either it was mentioned on a retro video game YouTube channel or as a Shenmue capsule toy I can not remember... And is the Centurion the guy from Altered Beast? He would be impressive if he got to power up during the fight and finally transform into a Beast to wreak havoc! And although it would be nice, I doubt anything official for something like this would ever occur. However unofficially, I could see very likely something like M.U.G.E.N. being able to do it, if they have not already.

Ha, ha! Oh yeah, those particular characters would probably get their butts kicked, for sure. 
Yeah! That's him! When I drew these out for Sega Addicts, I actually included move lists for each character, so I pictured the Centurion being able to transform into his different beast forms, if he collects enough spirit balls (similar to a super meter bar). He can change into each form, and then become the Golden Werewolf for his super move.
Yeah, that's definitely true. Even in their heyday, Sega and Capcom never seemed interested in doing something like this, so it definitely wouldn't happen now. But as you said, there probably are fan-made versions of a lot of these characters! I would love to do that myself for some of the Eternal Champions characters--translating them into Capcom-style sprites and animation would be amazing! Unfortunately I don't think I'd ever have the time...

And I certainly do not have the knowledge nor the skill to do it. I always wanted to, but never applied myself. Closest I thing I have come to game making is almost completing the first chapter of my text based game for the side quests of Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and also a Choose Your Own Adventure game book with it's first chapter and some mapping for HL1/Sven Co-op which I really never got out of the mapping tutorial stage when it was all said and done. I can do the tedious work, but the actual "magic" or coding is a big NO for me. I also tried my hand at making Shenmue on RPG Maker XP, but ehhh... still might finish the text games though, since they are or were virtually complete. I had even asked if people wanted to contribute and have their art in my games "virtual gallery", had maps made that could be looked at on tables, a person writing dairy entries, etc. I just needed to do some polishing more than anything else. But some times when the guy updates the engine, it breaks something in my game and then I have to find a solution or work around. The ideas are there, just not the know how or either the ability to learn (I know code will never happen.) or the true passion to do so. Plus I have ADD when it comes to games, books and movies. I tend to move on from a project when it know longer inspires me. Many more stories half written and never finished, drawings, etc.

Answering your first question, you may consider these fanmade movesets for those characters.
Marvel Vs. Capcom 3: B.D. Joe
Marvel Vs. Capcom 3: Beat
Marvel Vs. Capcom 3: Alex Kidd
Marvel Vs. Capcom 3: Ulala
It's a little thing called "imagination," which is what Capcom had when they added Phoenix Wright (for lack of better examples) in MvC3.
Can't say much about Green Mask, though.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ha! I have never played MvC3, but if it is anything like Arthur from Ghosts and Goblins either in MvC1 or 2, I will pass on that as well. Although I may be getting confused with actual playable game characters and side kicks that are more or less just there to make an appearance. Roll was annoying as well. Dark Stalkers got away with certain things because it was suppose to be supernatural in a sense, so Little Red Riding Hood could pull twin uzis from her picnic basket to decimate her opponents.
The drawings were good, just some of the characters seemed off to be able to contend with Capcom's bread and butter versions.

Did you do the Capcom Roster? If not do you ever plan on doing it?
