Hsien-Ko and Sentinel confirmed for Marvel vs. Capcom 3, first videos
You might have heard that the Sentinel -- mango or otherwise -- would not be making a return appearance in Marvel vs. Capcom 3. You may also have heard that no more members of the Darkstalkers cast would be joining the roster. You might be inclined to believe these statements because they came from the mouth of Capcom's Ryota Niitsuma himself. Either Niitsuma was misinformed or someone was fibbing. Regardless, here are some videos of Hsien-Ko and Sentinel in Marvel vs. Capcom 3. Hsien-Ko, incidentally, was among the characters mentioned on a purportedly leaked list we posted last year. Sentinel was not, though the this isn't the first time we've seen an unlisted character pop up. [Thanks, Catalyst]
Rumor: Marvel vs. Capcom 3 roster to include Mega Man, Frank West, and more
A source shared what they claim to be the full roster for Marvel vs. Capcom 3, containing no fewer than 18 characters who have yet to be announced by Capcom, in addition to a new "War Machine" look for Iron Man. The list includes characters like the Red Arremer, Mega Man (in Battle Network and classic styles), and Frank West/Chuck Greene (probably as alternate versions of the same character) on the Capcom end, and Ultron, Squirrel Girl, and Thanos from Marvel. The most random character on the list is probably Victor Delacroix from 2003's Chaos Legion. Though, of course, all of this new information is unconfirmed, it's worth noting that She-Hulk and Zero, both appearing in the list from our source, were announced after we received it. In addition, some of the characters, like Frank West and Soki, are believable because they were featured in Tatsunoko vs. Capcom (like Zero) and thus are probably relatively easy to update for MvC3. The Mega Man character is likely also similar to the Mega Man Legends-style version found in Tatsunoko. It's possible some of the new characters are even based on Tatsunoko movesets -- Delacroix makes more sense if he's taking the place of the sword-wielding Karas or Tekkaman Blade, for example.
