  Marvel once caused a problem for Capcom by insisting 'Juggernaut can't jump'

  Marvel's profitable relationship with Capcom began with arcade beat 'em up The Punisher in 1993, but quickly switched to fighting games with X-Men: Children of the Atom in 1994. The X-Men were mega popular at the time, so it made perfect sense. One problem, however, was that Marvel was more protective of its characters in the '90s... Read more.

  Dev Comments for MARVEL vs. CAPCOM Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics

  {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45065399/8079afe65f0d7dd300307e4e8c72748ce8a6844a.jpg We asked three members of the development team what each of the 7 games in the collection means to them, including two Game Designers and Producer, Shuhei Matsumoto. Read on ahead for their comments below. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45065399/dacb73b36f97747f49dd7541d31ec90b81316361.jpg X-MEN CHILDREN OF THE ATOM Matsumoto-san – The first time I played it, I was impressed with the action and dialogue that fully embraces the traits of the X-Men. And just trying to attempt the flashy special moves, X-Powers, Hyper X, etc. was a lot of fun. The depth of the game that accompanies these moves is what makes this game so appealing. The game is also the first to incorporate the concept of momentum which is commonplace in fighting games these days. This made each opponent feel unique and created more situational differences that is important to the core gameplay. I see this game as being revolutionary. Game Designer 1 – I didn't know anything about X-Men at the time but I was super excited to see things evolve from Super Street Fighter II Turbo. New features like super jumps, special moves that can be executed with normal buttons, and aesthetic elements like unique character features, smooth and cool animations and flashy effects were very cool. I liked the Cyclops because his beam felt good, but I hated Iceman. I kept complaining, "why can't I chip him, this isn't fair!" Game Designer 2 - My family had an abundance of American comic books with mainly Marvel titles, as this was my parents' hobby. We also had a large collection of X-Men and other American comic-related video games from the time I can remember. Because of this, I think of the X-Men as heroes who were always there for me when I was a child. When I first played the game, it was just too difficult to complete.... I had to continue over 10 times to even reach Magneto, the final boss. I remember being so annoyed that I had to continue more than 30 time...
