The 30+ Cut Characters Of Marvel VS CAPCOM Infinite

[@Josuemaneiros7]

Ah, yes, the character select screen that will ALWAYS trigger my ocd...

[@SeelkadoomandJokic00]

Granted. XVSF, MSHvSF, & MvC are uneven too. With more Capcom characters. Infinite was just Marvels payback.

[@wgsdaugther]

u mean ur OBCD

[@Mind_Crimes]

My autistic compulsion of organization & categorization was never prepared for the assymetrical character select screen.

[@Mr.Selyumor]

I do really wish that Captain Commando got another shot. He’s got a fun design and demeanour.

[@discmanthecdlord]

Maybe the next game he'll come back

[@KnottsBear-yTalesPreserved]

Based on the recent collection and how heavily its been in the circles. I have firm confidence Capcom is gonna bring the more cult-like characters back in a new game. I would love to see new additions, but also the oddballs like Captain Commando again.

[@rileyholden-zc9ip]

Jin too

[@necro-esque666]

I feel the need to point out that Lady from DMC being planned makes a lot of sense considering her signature weapon was used in one of Dante’s special moves in MvC3 and was one of the only moves he lost in transition

[@Hi_Just_Fred]

The only positive I can personally give this game is they actually brought TJ back for frank. Which seems like something that's impossible for the series to do at this point. :)

[@JcgLounge]

My brotha, MVC WILL return. With the success of the MvC Classic Collection, Capcom and Marvel understand that people still love these games, this franchise as a whole. It’s not a matter of if MVC4 will happen. It’s only a matter of when.

[@JakeJakers]

Trust me, I would love to be wrong. But a collection of games where most of the money spent was licensing isn't the same as a new game with models and coding from scratch. I would love for that collection to convince CAPCOM that the MVC series is worth trying *and actually funding* again, but I also remember what they did with Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster....

[@StefOro23]

@@JakeJakersthey already confirmed they want to make MVC4 and CVS3 it’s just a matter of when

[@JakeJakers]

@@StefOro23 The devs wanting to and the executives allowing are very different things. But I truly hope we see them again (as good games).

[@discmanthecdlord]

​@@JakeJakersyour acting as if they'd treat mvc as a side project in the same vain as the dead riding remaster

[@JakeJakers]

@@discmanthecdlord You mean like they did for MVCI?

[@redchariot4006]

That select screen will always look wrong... Nothing but a reminder of what could had been

[@SIXminWHISTLE]

Its crazy how badly Infinite got fucked by these anti-X-Men restrictions and Fortnite didnt, but I guess it was about 2.5 years between Infinite and the first Marvel season of Fortnite. Epic even included references to MvC in the recent Marvel season.

[@JakeJakers]

I wonder if the plans to acquire fox had them lighten up.

[@SIXminWHISTLE]

Probably, the Fox acquisition finished about a year before that season. We also started seeing more X-Men in other games around then, like Ultimate Alliance 3.

[@emperormegaman3856]

Yeah, that laps of 2.5 years is precisely when Marvel stopped the X-men embargo, probably in no small parts because of the Fox acquisition. 2019 was the beginning of the Krakoan age IIRC. MvCI was produced during the time where marvel was still trying to downplay the mutants.

[@bradbuxer268]

great vid but as someone who was around and involved with a lot of MvCI pre-release leak speculation it's worth mentioning there is one leaked base game character who appeared to be credible and never materialized from Ryce's initial leak list: Ant-Man! who knows what could have happened with him haha

[@damiencross7334]

Infinite has the worst roster of all these games. The marvel movie roster is so boring. There is a reason people are still playing MvC3.

[@JakeJakers]

Seriously, is it "A-Sir-Ah" or "Ah-Sue-Rah"? Who's Wrath is it? I never played the game.

[@TheManOfManyNames373]

I have never heard anybody pronounce it "A-Sir-Ah".

[@MeltyVampire]

Ah-shuu-rah is how its pronounced. At least in that game

[@GurrenPrime]

General rule of thumb with Japanese names and words: consonants are almost always at the beginning of syllables and almost never at the end of syllables. (“N” being the biggest exception). So “ah-sue-rah” would be closer, but as another commenter pointed it’s actually pronounced with an “sh” sound. (I don’t know enough about Japanese to give any good advice for remembering that part).

[@govardhanposina17]

Ah-Suee-Raa

[@kiwi_arms]

...carl squid girl???

[@kivaHBRO_04]

CARL ?!?!!

[@JakeJakers]

I always love people commenting on him.

[@mikaelamonsterland]

looking at this thumbnail makes my stomach hurt for what could have been

[@Manisfast]

Carl is my favorite mvc character

[@inthemindofcorey3038]

Gene on marvel vs Capcom 3 would be epic.... If you think Dante has a lot of moves... Oh boy

[@dovleerre3696]

Modders are already creating a Gene mod for UMVC3

[@Burning_Typhoon]

You know... Gene from God hand and Jin from Cyberbots have the same name phonetically, since you brought up pronunciations. Both names are pronounced like the character from God Hand, since the I always makes the "ee" sound in Japanese, without exceptions. You can hear how characters pronounce it in Tekken, too (Xiaoyu, Jun, etc all say Jin's name proper).

[@Hi_Just_Fred]

Peter Fleming is peak VA.

[@ninjahedgehog5]

Gamora getting in the roster instead of Starlord was most likely so she could be a mechanical replacement for Deadpool. While Combofiend's "characters are mechanics" speech is infuriating, it was a cover-up for Marvel's character mandates. So It's more than reasonable to believe that he was not lying when saying that the dev team tried to make up for the characters they were denied by giving their mechanics to approved newcomers

[@JakeJakers]

Yeah, that could be it.

[@StanleyTeriaca]

I might be posting this early in the video, but while Speedball isn't a popular character, he would make a powerful specials, as his power set would make him use his body as a projectile and take almost no kinetic damage.

[@JakeJakers]

I think Speedball would be great is support fighters came back.

[@TheVoltDenatsu]

if mvc4 is done right it could be pretty cool but, I think capcom will need to include Deadpool & Wolverine, which opens the door for "variants" they may be able to add in the game IE in D&W movie, Electra and Blade were there. So imagine if a MVC had Electra, Blade, Deadpool, Wolverine, and the primary avengers. But not having a 32 char roster where its 16 and 16 is a bit mindnumbing

[@leoultimaupgraded9914]

heres to hoping Beyond adds some of these characters into Infinite

[@Coletakahashi-n6u]

I the think they could get captain commando in the game with his team they were able frank his zombies as part of his move set and those are different assets that need modeling and textures created for them. It would take extra development time but it’s not impossible dragon ball fighter z had a character that summoned other characters as part of their move set it’s a non issue.

[@spiritpbr9659]

22:00 Kamala is polymorphic, she can do things Reed could only dream of. Put more respect in her name.

[@aleanddragonITA]

To be fair Reed also did things that go beyond just stretching

[@SuperLegendOf364]

18:16 I have literally never heard of this character before today, but fuck yeah Capcom! Please put a naga/lamia in the next MvC game!

[@agentlights925]

Kinda like some of the returning characters to be somewhat similar with each leak (god, you are so right with peter fitting the voice role for captain commando) Shame that punisher wasnt even considered at all

[@JakeJakers]

I find it weirder he wasn't considered in the older days, back when he had sprite work they could have reused.

[@InTheplant]

25:49 fucking bars

[@BATCHARRO]

The naga from BoF just like in my wishlist! They said Iwas mad! And they were right, but not about this!

[@Coletakahashi-n6u]

I don’t think that was the reason it was infinite it’s more likely called infinite because of use of the infinity stones.

[@skinnyweenie8679]

@Jake Jakers I’m curious to know but what are those “rumors” you speak about why Marvel pushes Kamala the Ms. Marvel a lot ???

[@JakeJakers]

The TL;DR is that she's the self-insert of one of Marvel's Top Brass (Sana Amanat) similar to Rey Palpatine to Lucasfilm's Kathleen Kennedy.

[@hasthehighground8560]

⁠@@JakeJakersah yes, Rey is a self-insert because the producer is a woman. That doesn’t even really work with the definition of self-insert because KK didn’t create Rey. With Kamala, I can kind of understand why maybe he co-creator would have more of a say in when she’s included, but she’s a character with a pretty big fandom surrounding her. Personally, I’d like Kamala in a Capcom fighter and think she fits right in with characters like Sakura.

[@mrpingasman3079]

@@JakeJakersyou really don’t know just how successful and well received Kamala’s first comic run was

[@JakeJakers]

@@mrpingasman3079 Not true. Her original run actually did really well critically and even commercially, and she was one of the better "new era" heroes. But that was also a decade ago. Her modern runs are constantly being relaunched or canceled.

[@hiddenthunder1395]

@@JakeJakers this argument doesn't work since it's not about Kamala - it has been Marvel's publishing policy for many years. Most characters if they're not crazy popular like Spider-Man or X-Men now just get limited series or short runs to save money. Company doesn't want to spend too much on marketing these comics while Big Two fanbase has a hard time to accept new characters.

[@skywalkersbutido6375]

Gill would be so sick in a future tittle.

[@basicallybojack1033]

I think Ah-sur-ah is meant to be the (sort of) Japanese pronunciation of it while Uh-sur-ah is meant to be the English pronunciation of it, I may be wrong though

[@tyestancil2783]

Been saying for years, Capcom should drop Marvel like a sack of sheesh and make Capcom vs Capcom and make play just like MVC, they have too many good ip's and characters to waste the vs mechanics on Marvel.

[@cheeseboi588]

This is why we need a new Aqua Teen Hunger Force game

[@JakeJakers]

So... we gonna be in a beat 'em up or what?

[@Hi_Just_Fred]

The concluding thoughts seem unfortunately true to me, Capcom is becoming more and more corporate and their current mindset will only further hamper projects they deem small fries.

[@ceejay4486]

THERE WAS SO MANY BETTER CHOICES! *BETTER CHOICES!!!*

[@jigokuruler36]

the quantity of the roster wasn't a problem at all, considering it was a 2 v 2, and tbh the gameplay is better than mvc2, other than that i can't disagree at all with the rest

[@dyrroth2127]

Finaly, Cut Content MVC Infinite 😭

[@nastymkfan]

Marvel vs Capcom Infinite should be remade with 6 new characters in the roster. 1. Wolverine (Marvel) 2. Death (Marvel) 3. Gill (Capcom) 4. Captain Commando (Capcom) 5. Regina (Capcom) 6. Asura (Capcom)

[@clemonade5964]

I hope the comments about Miss Marvel and Miles were about their inconsistent writing on their books compared to their massive popularity instead of some weird DEI/Woke comment. I've really liked your MVC vids, but if it's the latter instead of the former, then I guess your content isn't for me. And if it's the former, sorry about the assumption, ya just never know with most KZbinrs today.

[@JakeJakers]

I would be considered anti-woke, by I don't really care for going on tirades about that. I'd rather call the Spade a Spade, if you will. Instead of saying Miles/Kamala are woke characters, I'd rather point out their issues (Miles was blatantly made to replace Peter, Kamala has been overly pushed to try and force her to be the face of the company). Or in my Video on Dead Rising removing Erotica, where I focus on both the hypocrisy of it and how it was the laziest solution to the "problem" as well. Doing that just gives a better idea of what's wrong, and is a better way to talk to people you're normally going to disagree with. It's why I've had overlap with other commentators, but I rarely use their terminology.

What's wrong with "Uncanny"? Any Marvel fan worth their salt would eat it up.

[@JakeJakers]

I agree. But it's not Marvel fans that need to be convinced. It's business executives. And I'd hedge my bets it wouldn't make it past the first pitch because "uncanny" is seen as a negative word (i.e. Uncanny Valley)

[@LionelRGuy]

@JakeJakers "Uncanny valley" is pretty much the ONLY time it's used as a negative; every other time, it's used to mean "incredible" - an uncanny resemblance, uncanny abilities, etc.

[@JakeJakers]

@@LionelRGuy Well, not strictly. Uncanny resemblance does imply that it's accurate to an unsettling degree. But I get what you mean - it's not as ridiculous of an idea as I made it out to be. And I would LIKE that subtitle if they went with it.

[@Coletakahashi-n6u]

Wow you’re so clever if that was your attempt at a joke it wasn’t funny.

[@thiccpalpatine]

Daredevil will forever be the most egregious omission to me. It’s bad enough he wasn’t in any prior games, despite being tailor made for a fighting game. But by the time Infinite came out, he had a third season of a hit Netflix show out that was MCU adjacent at the very least. If there was as ever a time to finally include him, Infinite was it.

[@rafaelramos7634]

Apparently, both Rosas and Evans are stupid enough to think that the x-men & the fantastic 4 are not important at that time, but apparently, they're wrong
