    No fighting game is ever perfect. But there are a handful of fighting games that are near perfect. Tatsunoko vs Capcom (TvC) is one of them. There are only a few minor problems, the main one is that not many people know or even heard about Tatsunoko, therefore some of the characters will be brand new to the gamer. Secondly, like nearly all fighting games, there isn't much of a story. Well for the majority of this game, it is excellent. The graphics are good (for Wii), the fighting is intense and very addictive, the hyper specials are awesome and multiplayer is just great. If you are a die-hard fighting game expert or you're still a rookie this game would fit perfectly into your Wii games collection. Expand

    I will start off with the simple fact this game isn't perfect, but it does so much right it's the perfect fit in almost everyone's Wii collection! The hardest thing in this game is getting past the fact you may not know 1/2 the cast and that right off the bat makes this a hard sale. But just like you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover, don't judge this game by the crazy characters that you have at your disposal. If you take the time to get to know the characters you will have years of new content to explore, if that's not your cup of tea at the very least you have a excellent fighter worthy of all the accolades. Simple controls for the new comers and depth for the hardcore, this game has it all. This is a game I can see having a home in my Wii for quite some time. Expand

    I've never had so much fun playing a game with my friends since the original Super Smash Bros... And That's saying a lot. A pro can enjoy as much this title as a newcomer, you won't be able to stop laughing at the over-the-top action... and the shooting mini-game just adds even more depth to an already very polished game. So far so good, this gets my seal of approval.

    Beautifully polished, excellently designed, and both accessible and deep. This is without a doubt the best fighter of the last ten years.

    One of the funnest and most enjoyable fighters in years. If there is one fighter you buy this generation- this should be it.

    This game is fantastic in every way, I reckon it one of the best fighting games in a long time, even better then street fighter 4. All the characters are great fun once u get the hang of the controls and the graphics are superb

    Best fighting game on the Wii. GRAPHICS: clean, fast, amazing- 10/10. ACTION: Fights are fasted paced and unpredictable, the variety of characters is great, and the mini-games are awesome. Basically everything you could want out of a fighter- 10/10. MECHANICS: The controls (Classic Pro) are easy to learn unlike some other fighting games. Special moves are easy to learn and each character has their own style- 10/10. EXTRAS: Having half a cast of relatively unknown characters makes the game BETTER in my opinion. No preconceived notions about who should be good, better than X, or whatever and no nerd rage when Magneto doesn't instantly (instantly) kill Iron Man. Having what are essentially blank slates gives the player (or maybe just me) the chance to make up their own stories for the characters, like how Tekkaman is fighting for gay robot marriage- 10/10.

    This is possibly the greatest fighting game available on the wii, better than SSBB in my opinion. This game pretty much has everything going for it, a great lineup of not only well known Capcom characters, but stars from Tatsunoko productions as well. The only thing that I'm not crazy about is the lack of difficulty. I put it on the highest difficulty and seems like the game is too easy. I hope this game gets ported to PS3 or 360 because it's a great fighting game that shouldn't be missed out. Expand

    The shallow fighting game will be enjoyed by hardcore fans, but anyone else will be mystified by its sheer lackluster gameplay. There isn't enough content for a $40 pricetag, especially in the terms of characters. There is are three or so standard modes of "story" (there really isn't any, if you're wondering), arcade, and versus. They're all more or less decent, but get into the the gameplay and problems arise. Firstly, the two character swap out of place and useless. It's actually reallllly annoying, and can drag down any good match. The backdrops are poorly done and uncreative, just like the rest of the game. It's still fun... kinda... but the constant sticky controls, icky graphics, and lack of desirable content just makes it another mediocre installment in the capcom fighting franchise. Expand

  1. Tatsunoko is certainly its own beast, but compared to a genre highlight like Street Fighter IV it can't help but feel slightly throwaway. [Feb 2010, p.95]
  2. Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom arrives at the western market twelve months after being sent in Japan, in a new version that adds great amount of extra content. TVC: Ultimate All-Stars it is the best fighting game never sent on Wii. An indispensable game for the users of the Nintendo's console.
  3. With zany characters and gameplay and a low barrier to entry, TVC is fantastic for the fighting game novice. On the other hand, there is also a deep fighting system for veteran fighter fans along with a solid online setup. Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars is an amazing 2D fighting game that is tailor-made for the Wii and its audience.
