I mean seeing a dead family member suddenly come back would freak anyone.

[@Sanodi21]

Not just a family member but their family too. It's not just MvC2 but the whole line

[@maxcombo3448]

it's like the Thanos snap

[@thomassmith5696]

Except not even close?

[@cikame]

Except the family member was still playable on multiple other platforms if purchased so... i would think bringing them up to modern platforms would bring a sense of relief instead of intense excitement.

[@scottjameson5358]

​​@@cikame So you're telling me if I haven't met a family member that I missed for so long, even though I knew they're still around, just hard to meet face to face, I shouldn't be even mildly excited if I saw them in a fortunate meet?

[@luigiboyinblu]

Max's going apeshit reaction was probably the most earned victory I've seen this year. This one is for the history books.

[@odindarkll3706]

Indeed. Now all Max needs to do is resurrect Assist Me series featuring this collection!

[@cetospalis4784]

Max having to explain his reaction is telling of how sad the internet has become now. Trying to tear down or criticize Max for being genuinely excited and happy for something he clearly is passionate for out of suspicion of "shilling" or "faking a reaction because he already knew this was coming" is sad. I get that reaction videos have become a super common thing where people ham it up for views, but Max loves what he loves. And as explained in this video, it's been YEARS of build up that resulted in this monumental event. It's truly special.

[@LatinGiudo817]

Still enjoyed Max's reaction to the announcement over the "Wednesday Addams" streamers that "reacted" to the Twitter version. His reaction was more relatable cause that was how I reacted to seeing my teenhood dream of finally owning the games I played on the arcade version of those in my local video rental store come true. I actually teared up seeing Marvel vs. Street Fighter cause I had more fond memories of that game than the rest of the games in that collection.

[@derrickf8053]

I found out about MvC Collection when the trailer appeared on my KZbin list which was half a day after it was announced. I played all Vs. Series in the arcades back in the day and consider myself a very casual player at best of fighting games. My jaw dropped when I saw the trailer. I can only imagine how the people who live and breath fighting games were feeling. Max’s freak-out is totally understandable.

It sucks that max is seemingly apologizing for being happy. This is some of the most insane shit I’ve ever been apart of in the fgc. Anything is possible, no one has the right to take away your happiness max, always remember that please.

[@The_Dejected_King]

I 100% agree. We're witnessing something that proves anything is possible and the love that Max has for a game helped make this a reality. He deserves to feel this joy and never have to apologize for it. We're all excited I would hope.

[@Dracobyte]

One of the dangers of pessimism and cynicism.

[@briansilva3765]

The people saying he overreacted weren't either Fighting game fans, nor knew Max at all, they were just random people in forums who heard of the reaction because it happened in a Nintendo Direct.

[@TheDownrankTrain]

This brings a whole series of classic fighting games into current-gen console hardware. The FGC for these games is going to see a huge number of new players, and almost certainly a massive increase in popularity for the tournament scene for these games. that alone would be enough reason to get exited, but the fact that this could potentially lead to the revival of the entire series adds a whole other level.

[@Sonicfalcon16]

Yeah it's really weird. Apologizing for something everyone who knows him should not. Like, guys

[@jimmymftv2284]

You were wearing the MVC shirt on the live too! You Manifested it MAX. Were always gonna be thankful for what you did to make this happen Brother.

[@passerby8207]

[@wastelandking]

You are allowed to be happy, Max. Those who try to bring you down for seeing a long since unlisted game come back into circulation are just miserable sons of guns. Hopefully, you're ready to take some peeps for a ride when MvC 2 comes online again.

[@Martynde]

I couldn’t watch Max live on Twitch but I could watch the Direct live on KZbin. I imagined him spinning around on his chair screaming then running around his room screaming

[@SullySadface]

It's funny, that's what happened with Arlo where Paper Mario did leak and he thought it was a bad joke.

[@XerosigmaZ]

I wouldn’t have believed it lol. Just like I don’t believe we’ll ever get a Half Life 3

[@Foggen]

I was a heavy Marvel reader circa 1991 to 1995, and I didn't realize at the time that the arc I was on was apparently extremely common. X-Men felt fresh from Claremont and Lee's issue 1, and eventually post the Image exodus all of the creativity seemed to have flowed out of the company besides Andy Kubert, John Romita Jr., and Ron Lim. Seeing COTA in arcades in 1994 seemed like a gift, especially since it called back to a version of the property that was already fading.

[@LucLightWolf121]

That's why Children Of The Atom is my favorite arcade game of the 1990's. I loved the Chris Claremont/Jim Lee run of X-MEN, and I stayed an active reader of the X-MEN Universe until 2003. I miss the early 1990's in Marvel Comics. That was fun times.

[@EGacias-tn8nh]

CoTA was a dream come true to me, especially being a hardcore claremont X-Men fan from 80’s- early 90’s, and after the Pryde of the XMen one-shot episode. When SFll came out in 91, all I could think about was “only if they made an XMen ver. of this!”

[@Foggen]

@@EGacias-tn8nh It was a shocker when Konami made that arcade beatemup based on Pryde as well

[@Ihonmatar]

I was in Max’s chat during the direct. Most of us were just chilling watching the Phantom Brave trailer, and when the announcement came, every single emotion went through multiple peeps, especially Max. No one saw it coming, and after this, I thought back to my childhood, when I would play MvC2 in high school during lunch, which is when I learned how to play fighting games proper. To say MvC2 and MvC series as a whole has a profound impact on people would be the understatement of the year. And my excitement still remains!

[@MrNostalgic23]

I yelled too. All those tournaments at Santa Monica and Venice were great memories of mine back in the day. I totally understand where Max is coming from, it really is like seeing an old friend come back to life.

[@pigglesgoomshby7249]

It’s still so insane that this happened, feels like the stars aligned for this

[@timothyli-dark_smilez6410]

[@AmyZonkers]

It's not really that insane. Old games get ported all the time and just because it's been a few years doesn't mean there is some conspiracy to keep it down.

[@steve43ful]

It’s not that weird. Disney bought Fox, along with the rights to make theatrical films of X-Men and FF. Now they no longer have an incentive to pretend those characters don’t exist.

[@overthetof412]

I was watching the Direct with some friends, and as soon as the MvC collection was announced I immediately thought "oh boy, I bet Max's losing hid mond right now" Your reaction is so funny that I've watched it several times by now, because it is impossible not to see how much you care about this series

[@Galactic123]

Every other reaction to this Nintendo Direct I saw from anyone who had any inkling of the FGC were all saying something in the lines of "Max must be losing his fucking MIND right now"

[@Necroscat]

I didn't even know WTF I was doing in Puzzle Fighter, but I was still putting in coins!!!

[@brad6083]

I really hope max realizes how much of a role he played in making this happen. Without him we prolly wouldn’t be here

[@wolfcat8632]

Max is still freaking out so hard he spelled Real Talk wrong. I bet his hands were shaking in excitement while he was typing in the title

[@jgarcia2305]

I understand how you feel, Max! I was in high school and was obsessed with these games! I remember when they would come out I would immediately go to Toys R Us and get a ticket to own a PS1 copy, particularly XvS, MvS, MvC1! Hearing all the intro and character selection music jammed chronologically in the Nintendo commercial hit me with waves of feels!

[@AegixDrakan]

I didn't even know half that context of your concerted efforts and how much it seemed like it wasn't going to happen, and I still not only thought your reaction was valid, but my first thought when I saw "This one's gonna take you for a ride" was "ohhhhh man, Max is going to lose. His. MIND." XD

It's REAL TALK because Capcom was able to get the licensing rights from Disney. Which they already own Marvel. What's suprising is how the heck did Capcom make this happen?

WE DID IT MAX! WE GOT IT BACK!

[@emilioedj]

I don't get how anyone can call you a shill. I am a casual fighting game fan and every time Max starts listing all the different fighting games using the acronyms it sounds like a different language. Then he starts going through the history of MVC, clearly this guy has a deep love and passion for this game.

[@munasar25]

I still play it on my 360. I saw the announcement, and i said yooooooo i gotta see Max!!!!! Man.. although i still play it a lot, i fear one day I won't be able to keep rockin' it out because microsoft will eliminate things like updates and the actual 360 store. I dont know how that will affect the games that i already purchased, like mvc2, but i am so happy they are making the game and the other ones again. Im getting them physically. ( them ), haha. I love your channel, man.

[@junfaa]

When max said that the arcade1up thing was probably all we were going to get from a revival, it really took the wind out of my sails.

[@Lunatic89097]

You willed the collection into existence!

[@Igorgetyou95]

Max, there’s no need to explain your passion for MVC. Watching your stream live when they announced was legitimately how I felt and honestly man. Your love and influence across the MVC community made me and I hope several others too immediately thought what your reaction would be in fact I actually hopped on twitch to watch your live stream as soon as the Direct was over because honestly I was nail bitting MP4B but to say the MVC collection didn’t make me go through roof is a major understatement. I was literally in the process of buy a 360 solely for one reason only mainly because I genuinely still have MVC 2 and Origins when they were available (even the MK arcade collections haha) and before the 360 shop closes up haha but the fact I was going to go out of my way to get a 360 again just for MVC alone goes to shows how MVC is not just the game for gamers, but for the whole world. Thank you Max for still being the leading spear and I honestly hope Capcom or even Marvel give you a nod for showing that MVC is still here and kicking ass!

[@thedoodlefox5640]

The scream I scrumpt when is saw the words “take you for a ride” in that direct

[@1234messias]

Capcom really took us for a ride with this one. Can't wait.

[@EchoCedric561]

I feel that its also a case of marvel (disney mostly) understanding that MCU isnt how you make marvel vs capcom. Its the idea of how these characters interact and just to see all those popular names go at it. When i saw the direct i literally said "Theres no shot that marvel 2 is there!" and it happened. . .a whole collection of games i DESPERATELY wanted to enjoy after seeing just how fun they looked. Seeing everyone blow up about it shows Marvel AND Capcom that they made the right choice in going back to this because people want to see their characters and want new players and even their kids by now to experience what they loved back when THEY themselves were children.

[@MrAllekzander]

I'm still amazed how out of the blue this felt, I'd of believed Thrill Kill was getting a Switch release before MvC2, lol. And then just kind of casually dropped in the middle of the Direct with no lead up. I about died seeing that Ryu silhouette.

[@Evanz111]

Every single video I’ve watched about this Nintendo Direct has had at least one comment about you. I’m not a fighting game fan, but game, this moment was huge.

[@Alucard-A-La-Carte]

I absolutely love the enthusiasm and joy that this brought to Max and the FGC, I absolutely would NEVER try to take that away by being a jaded, disaffected prick, but from a casual standpoint: all I know about MvC2 is: it's the game with a 56 character roster with 4 or 5 viable online ones. So I also get the puzzlement as, to me, it always seemed like a "solved" fighting game. Absolutely happy to be educated on that, though, I'll almost certainly be picking this up anyway just for the sheer volume of content.

[@ruggedlemmings9163]

MvC2 will always hold a special spot in my memory even though I'm not huge into fighting games (I'm the definition of a casual, as Woolie would put it I like to pick up the controller, pick a character that looks cool to me, and hit some buttons). I went to high school with - and was good friends with - Nick Plott, aka Tasteless (big name in the StarCraft community). The dude's just a natural born gamer, the type of person that can pick up a game they've never touched and within a week they can tell you all about the ins and outs of it and have it mastered completely. So he's over at my house one weekend and I introduce him to MvC2 on my Dreamcast. With this being one of my favorite games at the time while it was his first time playing it, I absolutely trounced him. Still, he really enjoyed the game. That was the only time I ever beat him. The next time we met up and played he was already a master and could beat any team I threw at him. It blew my mind as much as my mind was blown the first time I watched him play StarCraft and he was micromanaging two large armies, his base, and all expansions seemingly all at the same time.

[@lightspaceman5064]

Some people get their fun out of being always being unimpressed, playing devils advocate, downplay, and pretending not to understand interests. Nobody’s that stupid. Even if they’re too young to get sprite animation they still know how time works. Some people would rather the game be dead so they can feel special for still playing it. Weird bunch. Pay them no mind.

I think it just shows how Capcom exploded with all their successful Resident Evil remakes. They are now in a position of massive power and even Disney saw how much money they make now so they had to join too

[@akaimizu1]

I totally feel you on this coming back to life deal. It happened for 3 different fandoms, in that Direct. I'm not even counting Metroid, because everybody knew that was coming, nobody just knew when it would be announced. But it was for Mario and Luigi RPG fans, who literally thought that was dead due to the death of a company, known to make it. And for those of us who played and loved Phantom Brave, back in the day, it was long past the thought of being dead and buried. You could ask any of us a decade ago, and we would've whole-heartedly thought it was a one and done type of affair. Only after like 20 years, they up and said, "By the way, it's a series now and here's the next game!"

[@Shiirow]

the thing with comics is that people incorrectly assumed their worth and not understanding that like all collectibles, that worth is based on supply and demand. when something has high demand but low supply, the price sky rockets, but when they supply increases, the price plummets. Old comics are worth what they are because people covet certain issues and theres not a lot of those old issues in circulation, so they go for a kings ransom. Meaning if you are printing 10 million copies of a comic with 20 different variant covers, its not going to have the same value as an Action Comics #1. the entire boom was built on unreasonable expectations and the crash, like Thanos, was inevitable.

[@Fishman465]

I feel part of the problem was they kept on ending and starting runs to inflate the variety of no1 issues, but a no1 issue has no value If the run has little note or introduced no big current characters. Action comics no1 is worth a ton because first appearance of Superman one of the biggest superheroes ever.

Video game franchises are some of the biggest up and down roller coasters I have ever been a part of. You can wait 10 to 20 years on a franchise, go through all the stages of grief thinking that the series you knew and loved is gone, and then one day out of no where without warning it returns. The sheer emotional rush of seeing a game or series return that you thought you would never see again is incredible. You don't really get the same experience with things like movies or books, and everytime one of these big announcements happen I always go back and watch other people react to them because it is so nice knowing I wasn't the only person who jumped for joy at seeing Mario and Luigi getting a new game, or immediately jumped to steam to wishlist the MVC collection.

Honestly, phrasing it like "a loved one who pased away and then came back to life" is perfect.

This might be the coolest inside old School fighting game viewpoint I've ever heard....an incredible privilege to be able to see this about the clash and resolution of Marvel vs Capcom! I may only get to see something like this...once a Decade at most but its worth it

[@17Master]

Man devotes literal years to something, rallying people from all over to the cause. All signs show that his efforts will be for naught due to powers beyond his control. He is on the verge of giving up, when FINALLY the stars align and results come through in the biggest way he could have imagined. And some assholes who have never in their lives cared to interact with him decide it's their assignment from God to give the man flak for being happy that his work finally paid off. This is the state of the Internet. This is the actual state of some people on the Internet.

Seriously, how in blazes did CAPCOM persuade Disney to rerelease this?

[@kachosuffer7]

They're just videogames. No reason for them not to

[@RyuShinkuuHadoken]

Money happened.

[@MarvMay]

They didn't have to, they just had to be patient and wait for Disney to ruin the MCU. Disney isn't making the money off of Marvel like they once were, and so now, it's time for the video game scene to come bail them out.

[@zhaoyun255]

I'm guessing that it was Disney came back to beg Capcom because MCU ain't doing so hot right now+Disney loosing so much money on their recent Box Office disaster aside from Inside Out 2.

[@AirLancer]

Because Disney isn't doing their best to bury the X-Men anymore (and the Fantastic Four I guess, but that already did a fine job burying itself).

As someone who vaguely knew about the demand for MvC stuff (plus the funny "Take Me For A Ride"), and knew you as The Fighting Game Guy™... I thought your reaction was very hype and extremely cute~

[@yoshi396]

The passion this man has for this series was so great that it made a legend come back to life, I hope that if there is a MVC4 that Marvel and Capcom both invite him to test the game out early and put something in the game for his efforts, i could see a stage with Max in the background with a bunch of other legends cheering on the fight with billboard referencing FreeMVC2. If Marvel and Capcom dont do it i hope someone makes a mod stage of that idea for the Steam version of the game.

Knowing everything behind Max' reaction, seeing it live, made me more happy than most things in my own life, when I get happy. I've got lots of things that bring me joy but I haven't lost anything which was never coming back, ever. Max receiving what he's been wanting for so long made my eyes tear up. He's the most genuine person I "know" online and seeing him happy makes me happy.
