Wesker is such a good villain for MvC, especially with his RE5 incarnation's sense of overpowering menace, the idea that me might get mollywhopped by like, Viewtiful Joe or Tron Bonne is why I always love serious villains being in fighting games. He is a ton of fun to play in MvC3, too, but man I wish he could have been in a game with MvC2 Jill to have a proper Chris and Jill vs Wesker showdown

It'd honestly be really cool if any future hypothetical Capcom crossover fighters pluck a character from each main era of RE. Like Nemesis or MvC2 Jill for the original trilogy, Chris or Wesker for the action entries, and like, Jack Baker or Lady Dimitrescu for 7 & 8. Would be a really cool way to pay homage to the series as a whole.

The version they used in in UMVC3 is the better version, as it looks like he genetically cross-breaded his biceps with watermelons, vs. when they shaved off some of his muscles in RE6. Even one of his win quotes was something like "Look, I deal with superhuman monsters on a daily basis. I would have been crazy not to hit the gym and bulk up a bit." Anyways, rant over.

So, Wesker's moves have different Japanese names btw, even in OG Resident Evil 5/Biohazard 5. Windfall = Sousoukyaku (葬送脚, Funeral Leg) Panther Fang = Heishin Shouda (平進掌打, Flat Advancing Palm Strike) Samurai Edge shots: Horizontal Fire = Suihei (水平, Horizontal-Level/Water-Flat) Lower Shot = Kahou (下方, Downward) Anti-Surface = Kuuchuu (空中, Midair) Tiger Uppercut = Shoukou Shouda (昇甲掌打, Rising Shell Palm Strike) Ram Horn = Dan'eichuu (断影肘, Severing Shadow Elbow) Cobra Strike = Senhou Shouda (先崩掌打, Fore-Crumbling Palm Strike) Ghost Butterfly = Hasai Sougoushou (覇砕双剛掌, Supreme Smash Twin Strong Palms) Jaguar Dash was originally Collide; both were named Jinsoku Idou (迅速移動, Swift Speed Movement) Jaguar Kick was originally Knee Cannon, named in Japanese in both RE5 and MvC3 as Gouhou Shitsu (轟砲膝, Booming Cannon Knee) Adon's Jaguar Kick in the clip you've shown of him isn't seen; it's actually his forward somersaulting heel drop. The rising knee for Adon is actually named Rising Jaguar. OG Jaguar Kick in RE5/BH5 = Hairyuukyaku (背流脚, Stature Flowing Leg) Phantom Move = Kousoku Honshin (高速翻身, High-Speed Flip-Over) Mustang Kick = Moushoukyaku (猛衝脚, Fierce Piercing Leg) Phantom Dance = Sajunkei (鎖巡型, Chained Rounds Model) Rhino Charge = Gokutotsu (獄突, Prison Thrust) Lost in Nightmares = Renkan Satsu (連環殺, Linkage Killing)
@TheSeventhForce4 ай бұрын
Appreciate the in depth translations! I initially thought about implementing the Japanese move names into the video (since I did it more or less for Nemesis' video), but decided against it for pacing reasons. That said, I do have Adon's Jaguar Kick in the SFIV bit; It's at the very beginning of the clip.
@Abigdummy4life4 ай бұрын
@@TheSeventhForceAh, my bad. But yeah, it feels jank for the Collide/Jaguar Dash bit. Legit Wesker already had a Jaguar Kick in his moveset, yet 8ing/Capcom just simply renamed his Knee Cannon into Jaguar Kick. Same issue with Tiger Uppercut, which in my personal fan moveset I renamed the special as Tiger Reverse, AKA Hakou Gyakuten (破甲逆転, Blasting Shell Reversal). Tiger Uppercut with Japanese name and all remains the same as his command normal launcher.

To bad we got Nemesis instead of Leon. It would've been cool to see the dialog Capcom would've come up with between Leon and Wesker and Jill w/Chris. It'd be even cooler to have them on your team. And i can imagine the character callouts would be funny Wesker: "Kennedy!" Leon: "Hey Matrix!" Or "Blondie!" And "OAP/Pensioner!" With the character dialog between the two as follows: Wesker: "You do realize what youre up against Kennedy?" Leon: "An egotistical/self proclaimed "God" thats really a genocidal maniac? Right?" Wesker: "Theres no time to play. You know to much Leon" Leon "I wont even need 7 minutes to kick your ass" Wesker: "A survivor of Raccoon City...I thought I had eliminated all of your kind" Leon: "Well you were wrong." End of match: Wesker interactions: "You put up a better fight than the BSAA..youd make a better test subject than Jill" "7 minutes? That was to generous" "I can see why you were selected to be an Agent. Youd be better with me" "I do not have any more time to play. You can perish now." "Where'd you learn to fight? Deadpool? Hes sloppy and arrogant." Leon: "So much for that 7 minutes" "Im taking you in. The DSO and BSAA have some unfinished buisness. Especially a guy that can punch boulders I hear." "Ive fought a guy whose right hand could come off and even he was better than this. This barley counts as a warm up" "Did you really have to steal Spiderman's move from him? Wade was right, definitely unoriginal. I expected better from someone who proclaimed to be a God." Although i disagree with the statement of Wesker being the most fitted to be in a Vs series from the RE Universe (since now mainly the main 3 are basically superheroes at this point) he still deserved a slot and glad he got one. Great video and glad you did one. Id like to see videos of characters from your wishlist from both Marvel and Capcom characters that never made it in. I think Leon, Ada, and Hunk would make extremely good fits from the RE side and can keep whos already been included but maybe revert Jill back to MvC2 Jill. Thanks for reading lol

RE is a lot of different things, so that's a little tricky to answer, but I'll try: - The remake of the first RE game has a great HD port. The game has fixed camera angles and tank controls, though there's a more modern analog control option if the default controls aren't to your liking. It's a phenomenal game. - Resident Evil 4 is more action game than horror, but it's an outstanding game with near perfect pacing. The game takes itself even less serious than previous entries, but it's tongue in cheek, as always. Either the original game or the remake is worth experiencing (both are on modern platforms) - Resident Evil 2's remake is similarly outstanding. It uses Resident Evil 4's camera perspective, but is structured more like the original games in terms of level design and resource management. It's _way_ more horror oriented and definitely worth experiencing at least once. - Resident Evil 7 is first person, but also has a renewed focus on horror; It's very distinctly inspired by The Texas Chainsaw Massacre if that paints a better picture of what it is. It's a great game that falls off a bit by the end, but the opening hours are some of the best in the series. My personal recommendation I think for an absolute newcomer would be to start with the RE2 remake to see if you even like the series, then try the other games from there.

@@TheSeventhForce I’ll take your word for it though with RE 2 I preferably rather play the original version on the PS1 since I don’t really like remakes all that much because how they remove some of the aspects that made the original game had its own identity.

RE 4 I often hear is the best game in the series if not not the best game of all time though I hear it’s success heavily affected RE 5 and RE 6 but like RE 2 I want to play the original version on GameCube rather than the remake.

I mean, it sounds arrogant because he _is_ arrogant. I don't think anyone's saying it's an award winning performance or anything, but it's a delightfully over the top performance in a suitably over the top game. Part of RE's charm has always been the cheese and Wesker's performance in particular is a good reminder that for as grim as some aspects of the game are, this is still a videogame involving a guy that looks straight out of The Matrix chewing the scenery and spouting hilariously awful comic book villain dialogue the whole way through. Frankly, I'd have been more disappointed if the voice direction for him was more subdued.
