@AcidGlow U.S. Agent does exist. He's similar to Captain America, but doesn't share the same morals. Armor Spider-Man is canon. He's from an alternate marvel universe.

[@vista1456786]

I didn't know he was from an alternate universe , from my research I thought he used the suit once and it was destroyed or something. Guess I need to look up more lore and that suit. Always thought that was one of his best looks.

[@jblue88hoodgamer54]

Speaking of Orange Venom I think he Supposed to be one of Spider Man other comic book Villains who is named Carnage an also I've always thought that Mega Zangief supposed to be a reference to Marvel X-Men Character Colossus do to the fact that they both are Big Russian heavy weight character s.

Beautiful, isn't it? 🥹

[@bernardp.1299]

Exactly ❤️ good times

[@EWOODJ]

Yeah! Instead, they used to release the same game multiple times with a few more characters at full price. Or if you went the arcade route, release a new update with a new character or two a few months after release. Do that multiple times for about two years, then release it on home consoles, and viola, a deluxe edition with all the D̶L̶ content added. Except people who only played the home versions would never know that.

[@theedwardian]

DLC really crippled the progression of video games. Now we pay $60 to purchase the "early access" of a game that may or may not receive any content down the road.

[@theorangeblur6188]

If only they would bring it out on Xbox… 😭😭😭😭😭

[@AWMonopolyMan]

7:41 Fans call this version of Venom as Red Venom since he’s more compared to Carnage. Extra aside, he is the fastest character in the franchise basically. Orange Hulk is considered by the official site as “Marvel Super Heroes Hulk”. Gold War Machine is basically MvC 1’s Mecha Gief, infinite Hyper Armor and no blocking. Roll does have some differences in terms of a super, damage output, lack of charge shot & a move all to herself

[@kendonl.taylor5111]

@AWMonopolyMan About Red Venom, he's a fragile speedster. As for Roll, she's the weakest character in Marvel Vs. Capcom.

[@TrollCapAmerica]

@@kendonl.taylor5111 Red Venon is also so fast he can pretty much turn any hit into an infinite then guard break the next character and infinite him to death too. Gold War Machine almost has to be played so you dont die in one hit from RV

[@theedwardian]

Nah Orange Hulk is Solar Hulk and nobody will change my mind on this.

[@hellsweep]

I heard the color swaps were supposed to be an easy way of getting marvel characters in while avoiding licensing issues. Red venom: carnage orange hulk: the thing grey Spider-Man: iron spider Gold war machine: iron Man

[@AWMonopolyMan]

@@hellsweep Gray Spider-Man is literally based on the armored suit Peter used in the comics

[@Masterwarmachinechief320]

Remember on the PlayStation 1 version of Marvel vs Capcom Onslaught is unlocked after beating the game with any character once and on the Dreamcast version you have to beat each secret character in arcade mode

[@Burning_Typhoon]

@7:40 No, Red Venom isn't just faster, he's literally the best character in the whole game. That's why he has reduced health. Literally everything he does can potentially lead into an infinite combo and deals more damage than normal venom. They don't play the same either. Orange Hulk also has different combo routes than regular Hulk and I'm pretty sure Gold War Machine takes less damage while mid-air. Also, Playstation versions aren't Arcade versions. That's why boss characters aren't playable. All these games are just emulated.

[@SoldierOfChristAlmighty]

Emulation 101 lol

[@faustomadebr]

Id say it depends... GWM will destroy him.

[@Burning_Typhoon]

@@faustomadebr I've seen it go both ways. But I'm saying red venom because he has more infinites and he's faster. I know GWM can jump out of everything he does except a grab, but I'm laying out the difference between red venom and normal venom. Red venom greatly out-classes normal venom by an extreme margin, and that's the point I'm making.

[@faustomadebr]

@@Burning_Typhoon Against normal Venom, for sure. But against GWM, he cant infinite him. In general, I see GWM against Wolverine, given Wolvie is broken. Haha

[@matthewchristie2186]

U can play as Cyber Akuma by yourself he's a boss

[@theyouth2000]

Thanks! Very detailed guide. It's just a bit of a shame we don't get to use the giant sized bosses, i.e. Apocalypse, Onslaught, Abyss.

[@AcidGlow]

thank you 🙂

[@Zontar82]

and they are on the thumbnail too so very clickbaity

[@faustomadebr]

We dont get yet... The fact these games are online now means they can patch bugs, upgrade stuff etc.

[@theyouth2000]

​@@faustomadebr One can hope. 🤩 But it's kinda doubtful, as these being emulation over the arcade roms. Don't think they are able to alter codes other than that are already there.

[@theyouth2000]

​@@Zontar82 Still alright, the video creator did mention some of the bosses are only available on older consoles' code with snippets showing them being playable. The thumbnail reference still makes sense.

[@AWMonopolyMan]

4:41 Note, the reason why the final boss is not selectable, is because the game will make you fight Apocalypse and it becomes massively glitched out (if I recall right, same thing happens with Cyber Akuma). Mephisto does produce fire off of attacks, Mecha Gief has Hyper Armor (and is unable to block, becomes an Install Super in MvC1 and 2). U. S. Agent is literally 100% just Captain America with different winquotes. Armored Spider-man has 1 hit of Super Armor similar to Hulk and normal Gief

[@AcidGlow]

It's not glitched on the playstation version. You don't get the Apocalpyse vs Apocalypse fight. It only has Cyber Akuma at the end. I think you're referring to the Arcade version with cheats / code alterations. I went through it fine on PS1. He even has an ending / congratulations text.

[@AWMonopolyMan]

@@AcidGlowThat’s exactly what I meant, on Arcade, its all kinds of wacky, so it just doesn’t work right

[@Jiterdomer]

Since this is an arcade ROM, the game will crash if Apocalypse, Onslaught, and Abyss were included.

[@AcidGlow]

@@Jiterdomer but they could fix it. that's how you fix the game code with glitches or errors. But they didnt want to

[@tomy3235]

​@@AcidGlowAt this point, im guessing it must be pretty impossible, all these games are more than 20 years old already, the Source codes must be a spaghetti if they even have them. These collections are usually just glorified rom packs with online play.

[@AVeryNormalAesthete]

3:36 It's kinda cool how when you switch to the Japanese version of MSHVSF, Norimaro will pop out on the bottom left of the game cover.

[@MrFreeze12346]

Dang, if they made Apocalypse, Onslaught and Abyss playable, this game would be perfect for me.

[@sageneodraconus]

Was Abyss ever playable in MvC2? I never knew how to play as him/it

[@jesusgarciacruz9059]

@@sageneodraconus Never, not outside unnofficial mods

[@greamepenney5947]

The reason the boss character s are not selectable is because the version of these games are based on the arcade versions not home ports so the home ports had extra characters and options added to extend the longevity for home play. This collection just like the previous collection release are basically the arcade original versions with just the arcade extras charters and no extra modes just added options and settings.

[@kevinmcphail3852]

The reason you cant play as onslaught or apocalypse is because these are the arcade ports and they were only available on the console versions

[@ChiefMedicPururu]

Yet MvC2 has the console stages added in training and online and "same character pick" option included, which is weird.

[@EWOODJ]

@@ChiefMedicPururu MVC2 was made for both Arcade and Dreamcast simultaneously and have connectivity with each other.

[@SeiryuuX]

I am so glad there is an Easy Select option for the secret characters. While understandbly so, the original methods were very cumbersome, moreso for MSHvSF than for MvC

[@chimericalical]

Only thing you missed that I know of are how to select your assist in MvC1. But that’s a bit much. Each button corresponds to a number LP = 1, MP = 2, HP = 4, LK = 8, MK = 16, HK = 32? There are 22 assists (20 displayed and 2 secret assists [sentinel and Charlie]). If you’re corresponding button presses match up with the number for the assist you want you get that assist. You press and hold the corresponding button’s to get the assist you want before the assist selection appears. Here’s the assists in order. 1. Unknown soldier (light punch) 2. Lou (medium punch) 3. King Arthur (light and medium punches) 4. Saki (hard punch) 5. Tong-Pooh (light and hard punches) 6. Devilot (medium and hard) 7. Anita (3 punches) 8. Pure and fur (light kick) 9. Michelle hart (light kick and punch) 10. Thor (medium punch and light kick) 11. Cyclops (light kick and punch and hard punch) 12. Magneto (LK+HP) 13. Storm (LK+LP+HP) 14. Jubilee (LK+MP+HP) 15. Rogue (3P+LK) 16. Psylocke (MK) 17. Juggernaut (LP+MK) 18. Iceman (MP+MK) 19. Colossus (LP+MP+MK) 20. U.S. agent (HP+MK) 21. Shadow aka Charlie (LP+HP+MK) 22. Sentinel (MP+HP+MK)

[@megamix5403]

There's no way you memorized all of that lol

[@chimericalical]

@@megamix5403 I memorized the buttons being 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32 as well and Sentinel and Charlie being LP+HP+MK and Sentinel being MP+HP+MK, the rest I just looked up and posted here.

Why they don't give the possibility to choose it slowly

[@AMVH2012]

Actually, Mephisto adds fire effects they don't add to damage or anything but it is a difference.

[@criticalshotstudios]

and he is faster than regular blackheart

[@Cirrimus]

Red Venom has different moves too. Instead of venom smash he has an altered version of Venom's forward HP but it's mashable. Kick special is the same way too.

[@AcidGlow]

Too much stuff to cover when the video is long enough.

[@gialactusfighterzpsn7527]

5:50 - The shadow for SHADOW Charlie looks like is from M Bison 😆

[@NeoZiggy92]

Makes sense in hindsight, because he's the cause of Charlie becoming Shadow! Thanks to Shadaloo's unethical science and all.

[@sakureygi]

Just to add for Armored Spider-Man, he deals lesser damage than default Spidey. I always notice this when doing his Maximum Spider.

[@AcidGlow]

yes there's alot more detailed changes but I can't go over every one for every character. Just a brief description as the video is long enough. I could possibly do a separate video going over every single detail. 🙂

[@JDFrank20Diaz]

Yeah another benefit is the special meter fills up faster if he's on your team against Cyber Akuma i had hulk at low health I used Gama Wave out of desperation to get 12 hits then I did some counter attacking and I was at LV1 that fast I won with one final gama wave that was clutch

[@shishioh]

He also doesn't jump as high, and I don't think he can stick to the wall as long either.

[@dholmlund]

Akuma Matata... What a wonderful knave!! ;)

[@SaikyoKoutei]

About some of the secret characters from MvC1: -Orange Venom is not only faster he also has more damage so its fair him to be a glass cannon HP wise, still he is one of the staples of the competitive meta, you just ride or die with him lol. -Orange Hulk is almost like an older version of Hulk, I think in MSH and MSH vs SF he didnt had super armor like his default version in MvC1 so its there if you prefer more speed but losing the super armor on his buttons, if only his pantes were blue he could be a reference to "The Thing" heh... -Golden War-Machine you are right on most of his descriptions and its also a reference for the first Iron Man armor that was...golden, so "in a way" you "can" play as "Iron Man" in this game lol, also another bastard of a character that is very overused in the competitive scene, its neat that in Marvel 2 War-Machine got Golden animations to be different from Tony Stark returning. -Capcom secret characters are more obvious in their differences.

[@AcidGlow]

yes theres lots of more details but I just listed the most obvious ones. As going through every single detail with every character would make the video even longer. Perhaps for another video if that's needed?

[@dholmlund]

This video helps a ton! Thanks for sharing this! :D

[@DamianCox]

I was honestly going to fade this video as I was wondering how hard it could be to unlock special characters. Glad I watched and remembered the nuances of each game and their unlocks. Totally forgot this.

[@Dante-Balisk]

If they ever do another game, I'd like more crossover games to attempt giving each character an exclusive alt costume of a character as if they existed in the rival's game. Ex: Hulk themed after Nemesis or Chris, Iron Fist dressed as a Street Fighter character, spiderman themed frank west maybe?

I wish Capcom could include the game versions with the most content, like the PS1 versions you mentioned that have more characters. It probably has to do with licensing or emulation issues, but it's still unfortunate. Their next upcoming collection has the same problem, with Power Stone 2 using the arcade version instead of the superior Dreamcast or PSP collection version.

[@lastclassairman]

I always considered orange (or yellow to some) Venom to be more akin to Phage from the comics who is the orange or yellow symbiote.

[@SoldierBear-rd1xn]

You left one difference out for Mephisto, his attacks adds fire effects, they don't add to damage. but it is a difference. Also Armored Spider-Man doesn't jump as high as Spider-Man does, given how heavy the Armored suit is. Also hyper venom's specials have been altered a little. For example, he doesn't use venom fang unlike the original venom. Instead he uses a move called Venom Bite, which is his heavy punch attack but you can spam it for him to bite the opponent multiple times.

[@AcidGlow]

The wiki pages have an entire section detailing every small change. I just ran through the main things to unlock them and a brief description as the video is long enough.

[@ninjahedgehog5]

Hyper Venom isn't just a speed upgrade. he also has a different special attack that replaces the Venom Bite. Orange hulk is supposedly supposed to play like in MSH, I honestly don't see how but I think his combos are more consistent? Lilith mode morrigan is worse than a clone. Her special and super moves are changed to be more like Lilith in darkstalkers wich in this game makes her a weaker character You also didn't showcase Roll who should be to the right of Megaman. She has a similar move set to megaman but her stubbier normals and an unchargable buster that goes from a 1 button projectile to a hadouken style input with wind up frames since she has to equip the buster before firing makes her a far weaker character. she's in fact considered the weakest character in all the franchise especially in the sequel.

[@AcidGlow]

It's a brief description of the characters that really need to be shown. I don't have time to list every detail as that would make the video even longer. Perhaps that could be for a separate video 🙂

[@Magnet_Chaos]

​@@AcidGlow Even then saying that Lilith is just a worse Morrigan is a more accurate description than "They are the same but with different sprites"

The would-be selectable bosses in some of the games (Abyss, Apocalypse, etc) were fixed and tweaked in later ports to become (semi functionally) playable in an actual match but considering that the versions of these games released in the collection are all arcade roms, it's no wonder why they removed them from being playable.

[@SharonisCarin321]

AcidGlow can ALL games be put in full screen mode to get rid of the borders like MVC 2 can or is it only in MVC2? I prefer the game taking the full screen

[@AcidGlow]

Like I did in my video? Yes there are video settings to remove the art border, play in 4:3 ratio or stretch it full screen horizontally (which is what I prefer).

We want just 1 thing: play Abyss in MvC2… what a shame

[@SuperPeterok]

Wish I could play as Darkstalkers characters

[@twinkpeaks9993]

@@SuperPeterokThere are already 4 Darkstalkers characters?

[@abelparras4731]

That's good, but rather unlock them myself

[@KraidAkuma101tonone]

i am somewhat happy and somewhat disappointed i love that thanos and juggernaut and magneto are playable where they are bosses but a little sad about the giant bosses. i get onslaught being unplayable because he's to powerful but apocalypse? he'd have his hands full with a pair of rolls

[@ARLW10]

I had marvel vs capcom 2 for ps2, when you unlock all the colors for all the fighters, you were able to make doubles or triples of the same characters on the same team example akuma,akuma, akuma vs sentinel, sentinel,sentinel. Do you know how to do that?

[@animemangafan1987]

Norimaro may be blocked off in the international ROMs while still selectable in the Japanese ROM but I'm not sure if there are still cheat codes to play as him since someone else on KZbin did in the arcade and PS1 versions so we can read his messages and ending in English for real. I hope Capcom will update the missing patches in the future since the QSound logo on each arcade title are still missing when I turn on the boot display option just like in the arcade versions did

[@devonbrown4260]

i think i understand now!

[@JDFrank20Diaz]

How do you do it for Nintendo Switch cusse We don't have a Start Button its just Plus and Negative and the 4 Face Buttons

[@YaBoyKels1]

Plus is start and minus is select

[@JDFrank20Diaz]

Thanks it worked Cyber Akuma is Broken can't wait to get all the Secret Characters

[@Jrocke07]

Thank you boss

[@AcidGlow]

Welcome

[@torinux4980]

It's a shame they used the dreamcast version of MVC2 where the character select screen has static characters. EDIT: NVM I just checked, and the arcade also has static characters during char select. I remembered they had animation like the other titles. I was wrong.

Mech Zangief breathing blue fire like he’s Dry Bowser

[@AcidGlow]

mech gief is hard to use but I always found him fun to use

[@mikenayers5981]

If I don’t unlock all MVC2 characters from the menu, can I still unlock them in real time? I’d actually rather do that.

[@ThiagoOliveira1984]

I want to know that too. I'd like to be able to manualy unlock them, but seem its not possible.

[@kirikohopps363]

Dam here I thought they made them all unlocked 🤣 I need to go back to settings and lock them as I want to earn them normally

[@JulioFrias-n1k]

Amazing

[@AcidGlow]

Thanks

[@silverk2110]

I already have the Marvel vs Capcom Fighting Collection on my Nintendo Switch and my only doubt is about when you disabled the roster and colors from MvC2 with the original 28 starter characters, when i play the Arcade mode and i beat at the end Abyss, is that supposley you have unlock some characters one by one like the original Arcade Naomi version?

[@ThiagoOliveira1984]

I tested it and it seems that there are no unlocks. Looks like you have to unlock them via menu

[@espiothechameleon573]

Btw, they fixed the glitch of the same color palette when you choose Thanos or Dr. Doom against CPU on MSH, as well with Juggernaut and Magneto on COTA?
