"Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars", other than an international release, has also been a nice upgrade to "Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Cross Generation of Heroes "

But I have a little complaint... Not enough characters!
All the Marvel VS Capcom versions had more characters (other than Xmen vs Street fighter!)
And this game got no excuse, it is 3D, meaning easier/faster to work on over a complex modern sprite! (the reason why everybody other than SNK and Arc System went 3D nowadays....)

The cast's already pretty nice, but i would have liked a bit more, just a tiny bit more.
Here's my own ADDITINAL CHARACTERS and my explanation in this comment....
(I'm talking from an European point of view, were other Tatsunoko series are known over the Speed Racers-only in America)

Hakushon Daimaō from "The Genie Family". He was cut from this new release.... He was inTatsunoko VS Capcom's first release and was cut...for no reason (there's tons of excuse/rumors...). Also called Bob in a bottle or Robert in France. He was one of Tatsunoko old school more populars characters and was shown across Europe (France, Spain, Portugal...) and Arabic countries (Egypt,...)

On Capcom side's I would have liked to see Zangief! Why? Good analogue big powerful character! Also has been in non-Street fighter games! He's in POCKET FIGHTER! A SD Capcom fighter!

I would have liked to see all the 5 Gatchaman!! Why?? Because it's Tatsunoko most well known series! And those other 2 heroes would have played pretty different from the already 3 Gatchamen! Don't forget there's gonna be a brand new CGi Gatchaman movie from Imagi studios soon! And in Marvel VS Capcom crossovers there's like all the AVENGERS team!!

2 Action/Survival Capcom would have been nice over the other Gatchamen, and since zombies related Jill was already used in the last VS, a Devil May Cry (not a fan but you gotta recon' the popularity) and Dino Crisis characters would have been nice!

Racer X from Speed Racers! Now I'm not a fan of this show, but you gotta acknowledge its popularity in America! There's been a modern live american movie, an US 3D show... America loves Speed Racer (or only knows this Tatsunoko franchise), and since I can't imagine the kid fighting, RACER X could have made it, even using his car in Ultra attacks!

Nathan-the bionic commando- could have make a quite interesting fighting character. Like Racer X, using his originality in attacks! He could have used his recent look or old school one, I like both!

Samurai Pizza Cats... Probably Tatsunoko's most well known show over the whole world! Not as popular as Speed Racer or loved as Gatchaman but even more spread over all countries! There's been said that Tatsunoko didn't let Capcom use them.. not this time? Only Yattarô would have been needed! The others, like with Doronjo, could have been used in Ultras!

Sexy Silvia? Yep! Another Viewtful Joe! Is that a problem?? The cast lacks some feminine representants... She could have been used in duo with Joe!

Now's the funny but interesting ones!

Pinocchio - one of the early most loved series from Pinocchio! Don't know it? you're probably too young... This show has been around in the end 70's and was one of my favorite Pinocchio's interpretations! I'm hearing you guys cry "BUT!... It's lame!" What? the wooden doll lame?? Imagine his attacks! He could have been quite funny! The show's very well known to us, 20s-something! It has been shown in America, France, Spain, Italy, Russia, Egypt, China, England,etc... One of the early Tatsunoko productions to be shown outside japan! He deserved it!
EVEN the opening's AWESOME! same tune in most languages

And finally, equally funny, Capcom's first mascot, Captain Commando! Used a lot in Capcom's merchandising, game manuals, ads,etc.. And had an decent beat 'em all game... He was in Marvel VS Capcom and should have been here too!

Now, what d'you guys and gals think? Other ideas? Agree? Comment below!
