What hidden characters does everyone hope there will be in Marvel vs. Capcom
2? Here's my list (it's all Capcom characters since I don't read comic
books):

A pallette swap of Jin that has a more normal set of basic attacks and has
those goofy dash punches and drill kicks as special moves (maybe this could be
the new shadow character)

Skullomania

Blanka

Arthur

Firebrand (from Gargoyle's Quest and Demon's Crest)

Megaman (it seems strange to me that one of Capcom's flagship characters isn't
in the game, I bet he's a hidden character).

Plant 42 (Resident Evil) - I would be very interested to see what Plant 42'd
be like in MvC2, either as a playable character or a boss. I think it's
highly unlikely that it's in the game, though. It's more likely that we'll
see the Nemesis from RE3 (which would be cool as well). The Nemesis's attacks
lend themselves better to a fighting game. In fact, for anyone who doesn't
know already, there are many similarities between The Nemesis and Sagat (both
have only one functioning eye, both are bald, both have similar looking hold
moves, and the picture of the Nemesis holding Brad Vickers by the face looks
really similar to the picture of Sagat holding Dan by the face).

Here's my list, most of which are highly unlikely
(even though many are just palette swaps):

Capcom:
* Lilith with Zangief's mind (as seen in
Morrigan/Lilith's ending in MvC. A semi-pixie
character with grappling maneuvers. Lilith
with a SPD. :)
* Zangief with Lilith's mind (same ending
as above). A big slow character with a fireball
and an uppercut. And Lilith's supers.
* Shadow Jin, from Shadow Lady's ending.
* Dmitri but only if he has Midnight Bliss
* A really mecha Zangief, who would be sort of
like Shadow Lady (Shadow Zangief?), firing missiles
and stuff.
* Evil Dhalsim (hey, why not?)
* Gill. This is the sort of game where he belongs, right?

Marvel characters:
* Rogue (okay, she's in the home version, but
she better be in the arcade version...)
* Superskrull. Why? A stronger Dhalsim
with superarmor and other abilities too...
flame on (like XvSF "forcefield"?), invisibility,
turn into other characters...
* Warbird/Ms. Marvel (Carol Danvers), could be almost
a palette-swapped Rogue, but without the power absorption.
Might have slightly different normals/specials too.
* Dark Phoenix. Heh heh, we need more villains. :)
* Taskmaster. He could have a Rogue like ability
to switch to an opponent's fighting style. Probably
too complicated to program, though. (But I'd say the
same thing about Rogue...)
* White Queen in Hellfire club costume. Heh.
* Ultron.
* Ant-Man and/or the Wasp. If you though Anita
was annoying...just imagine an even tinier character,
one that you can barely see. The Wasp also has a beam
projectile, while Ant-Man would probably just have a
super with tons of ants. They both could fly, of course
(Ant-Man riding a flying ant).

Based on how things usually are with Capcom, I'd say we're probably going to
see more characters that already exist in Capcom fighters, but it's always
nice to dream. :)

Here's some of the characters I'd like to see:

-Gallon/J. Talbain: I really liked this character in the DS series and
would love to see him return. If they can put Anakaris in, why not put some
more DS characters?

-Lillith: Ditto. And I don't mean the "Lillith" that was in MvC. :)

-Felicia: Yup, more DS.

-Mega Man: I didn't really use him very much in MvC, but it was just cool
that he was in the game, just like how Jin, Strider, Jill, and Tronne Bonne
made it in to MvC and MvC2.

-Arthur: This would be a fun character to have; he's really wacky and would
fit right into this title. :) I'd like to see a move where he gets hit by
some object on screen that makes him lose his armor and the shards from the
collision hurt the opponent. Then, he can get the different types of armor
from G and G that would give him different types of moves.

-Zero: Cool character design and I'm sure a lot of people would like to see
him in a Vs. game. Since he mainly uses a sword, he could play like a
Strider or Hayoto clone.

-June: Give Hayato some support and put his future wife into the game! Ever
since I saw Chun-Li do one of her combos in Pocket Fighter I wanted to see
June in a 2D game...

I'm almost 100% sure we'll end up seeing Ken and Chun-Li in this game. It
would be great if Capcom brought back Cammy along with Juli and Juni and had
you fight all three of them at once or something cool like that, leading up
to the final battle with Shadow, Shadow Lady, and Shadow Jin(wasn't he
supposed to "go shadow" in one of the MvC endings?), and some form of
souped-up Vega/M. Bison character.

Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing Forbush Man, Squirrel Girl, and Ghost Rider
on the Marvel side, and Victor, Hugo and maybe a 'Gem Fighter' version of
Felicia or Tessa on the Capcom side. (What can I say, I liked kitty's 'Chorus
Line' super.) :)

I'm also rather curious about how Anakaris' curse will affect the characters.
Can you imagine a 7" Hulk trying to smash A's toe with a brick? :)
"Hulk Smashed" indeed. ;)

i really would like to see(which i doubt)......

1)MegaMan or any other Megaman characters: Like Zero, ProtoMan, GutsMan(would
like to see him against Gief), and would also like to see Dr. Wily but as a
boss yknow, not the last boss but a semi boss before you battle Onslaught and
his partner Apocalypse(yeah right, that would be crazy......actually perfect
for a game like MvC)

2)Arthur: he would play like a CapCom i think, but with like Jill powers, will
have powers to command the dead against his opponent, you would press down back
+any punch, depending on punch, different undead monster appear, like if you
use jab, some dead zombie appear and run towards the opponent, or strong will
summon the red flying demon in the game that sweeps down on you in Ghost N
Goblins, and with fierce, maybe some zombie appears and give Arthur a better
armor, which will reduce damage intake, or he recieves different weapons like
Megaman does, i think in the G n G game there was a knife, lance, and torch as
a weapon.

3)Any capcom character, but in a Pocket Fighter state: i think someone said
this, i would find it funny seeing a midget fighter go at it against Gief or
any fast characters

4)CapCom/Bionic Commando: practically its CapCom with the grappling hook from
Bionic Commando!!!!! and he will use that grappling hook for........should i
say.......
yes like Scorpions spear. and maybe swing over like Spidey

5)Vega(US Vega): i always wanted to know how would Vega play like in MvC.
probably useless since everyone could super jump any air moves he got. anyway i
still would like to see him in MvC

For the Marvel side:
1)Deadpool: why? cuz in one of his comics he does a dragon punch and mentions
sf and says "shoryuken" to Shadow Cat. in the end he ended battling
Wolvie.Deadpool lost. so he will have a dp, but play more like Strider, Ibuki
or Rolento, by throwing knives in the air, doing lots of hit and run attacks,
and using his sword like Strider too. he would be awesome if he played like
strider, ibuki, rolento and have a dragon punch like Ryu. and have taunts like
Dan or Spiderman, since Deadpool likes to make fun of himself and his
opponents.

2)Carnage: But not a Red Venom type, but a new character(i doubt this, since
capcom has gotten real lazy lately). He will play something like Venom and
Wolverine. he will have a berserker attack, shoot webs, and change his hand
into like into a axe, or long spike or anything. he would move fast and be
really enjoyable to play(yeah right)

3)Green Goblin: i would be nice to see this character too. have a bomb throw
like Cable or something.

4)Daredevil: he would be nice

5)Punisher: also another character i would like to see

6)Nightcrawler: i used to use him in that 4player marvel game back in the early
90's. would like to see him in the game too

Holy crap, that is eerie. o_O Maybe Nemesis is Sagat but all malformed
and such. :)

I had sort of assumed Chris Redfield wouldn't be in since Jill's already in
there, but if there's even a possibility that Chris Redfield's in the game, I
REALLY hope it's true. Maybe Chris'll be a variation on Jill kind of like
Ryu/Ken or Guile/Charlie.

A Marvel villian with "photographic reflexes" that allow him to copy any
physical maneuver that he's seen done and that is actually humanly possible.
He's also very good at avoiding attacks of people he's studied.
Far too much work to program in as a hidden character, probably impossible
as a playable character at all, manageable as a boss-type (probably would be
a lesser boss if they ever did this, since he's not very powerful).

No arcades around here have gotten SF3:3S (or even SF3:2I for that matter), so
I don't know how Twelve's morphs work. But if they did put Mystique in MvC2,
there'd be no reason for her morphs to be complicated (I don't want MK style
combinations for each morph either). Maybe each one could be accomplished by
holding any combination of 1, 2, 3, or 4 buttons simultaneously for 6 or 7
seconds then release. That would work since there's really no other time in a
vs. game that you're holding a button for that long, and with 6 buttons, that
would allow for 56 different combinations.

It could just be something like, if you hold the buttons for long enough then
release, you do a morph and use up one level of your super meter. You fight
as the other character until you once again hold a combination of buttons for
7 seconds or so then release, at which time you morph into someone else and
use another level of your meter. There would also of course be one
combination of buttons that turns Mystique back into herself. I'm not sure
what moves Mystique would have while she wasn't morphed. That's for Capcom to
figure out, I guess.

I just hope more Rockman Characters are present this time.
If Capcom even included some of the robot masters instead of
the "hero from every game formula" it would be real cool.

here's who I wanna see

Megaman

Tengu man from mega man 8, I think he would be a cool cross between
strider(because of his tri blade)and docter doom(because he can hover)

Wangtang from powerstone I would like to see how he would play in a game like
this.

Lord Raptor who is to my opinion the best darkstalker in that game I think he
would be really cool in this game.

Docter Strange, I cant believe no one said he would be good in this game before
cause he would be perfect.

Sentinal, I miss this character he was crazy fun to play with and he was big
and powerfull.

Night crawler, he would be like spider man with a sword and he would also be
able to disapear, he would be unstopable.

Mr Fantastic, WHY IN THE HELL HAS CAPCOM NOT DONE THIS YET, he would be so cool
he would be like dahlsim and that would be fun.

And of course one of my favorites, Spiral

The ones I'd like to see are Quickman from Megaman 2 (he'd most certainly be
weak, but would be as fast as Red Venom and probably really fun to play as),
Geminiman from Megaman 3 (Bouncing Gemini lasers, and of course the ability to
split into two and attack simultaneously, though I'd hope they'd make his
split cooler than that stupid one Shuma Gorath had), and Astroman from Megaman
8 (I imagine him being a character who sort of attacks indirectly, his basic
attacks would be kicks and punches and localized lasers and all that good
stuff, but his specials and supers would involve setting little floating
devices all over the playing field and doing special and super commands that
cause the devices to shoot things at the opponent).

Just imagine Crashman with time delayed bombs. Maybe time length
depending on what button used. I would really like to see Tenguman.
The Tornado hold was all ready in the first MvsC, His could just move
across the ground. His super could be a big tornado that holds you
up in the air for a sweet auto combo.
