There is a lot of competition in the video game industry when it comes to fighting games, but only the chosen few manage to have a lasting impact on fans. Some of this can be attributed to the gameplay, or even the characters gamers can choose to fight with. Add in popular characters from iconic franchises, and it’s a recipe for instant success. Marvel vs. Capcom falls under this category. Mixing Marvel and Capcom heroes and villains together, while getting to see their flashy powersets on display just prints money.
