TATSUNOKO VS. CAPCOM: ULTIMATE ALL-STARS pairs well-known characters from Capcom’s roster of games with some of Japan’s most-beloved characters from anime powerhouse Tatsunoko Production.  From Capcom’s 30-year history come characters like Ryu and Chun-Li from the Street Fighter series, Morrigan from Darkstalkers and Mega Man Volnutt from Mega Man Legends.  Tatsunoko’s near half-century of Japanese animation excellence is represented by the likes of Ken the Eagle and Jun the Swan from the Science Ninja Team Gatchaman anime (known in Europe as Battle of the Planets or

G-Force), cybernetic warrior Casshan and comedic action hero Yatterman No. 1.  All together, there are more than 20 colourful combatants to choose from in order to form the ultimate tag team combination.

Gameplay will instantly set fighting game fans’ fingers twitching, combining elements from Capcom games like Street Fighter and previous entries in the VS. series, TATSUNOKO VS. CAPCOM: ULTIMATE ALL-STARS is a fun fighting game designed for all levels of players.  Players choose from the combined roster of fighters to create their favourite two man/woman/cyborg/robot tag team, rotating on the fly between the two players throughout the course of each match.  Those new to the genre will appreciate the game’s bright visual style and simplified four-button fighting controls.  Hardcore Capcom fighting fans will dig in to the game’s depth, uncovering huge Aerial Rave combos and unique Variable Assists, gorgeous Hyper Combos, and Variable Combinations that combine the capabilities of two members of the player’s tag-team to unleash huge damage.

TATSUNOKO VS. CAPCOM: ULTIMATE ALL-STARS is a new version of the game released in Japan in arcades and on Wii during December 2008.  Capcom is adding new features to the game, including Wi-Fi multiplayer offering the chance to take on friends and rivals from across the globe plus the recently announced additions of playable characters Frank West and Tekkaman Blade.  TATSUNOKO VS.
