Bumping with lovely wonderful news information of doom.
Amaterasu joins the Brawl thing
Alongside Marvel's Thor. They're rivals. The Japanese goddess of the sun vs the Norse god of lightning.
Well isn't that just the most brilliant thing you've heard in ages? SO FUCKING STOKED
Also recently confirmed
Chun-Li - Street Fighter II, the only other confirmed SF character aside from Ryu so far.
Trish - Devil May Cry. I think this is a pretty odd addition myself.
Doctor Doom
Super Skrull
Now for the more interesting stuff.
Viewtiful Joe and Dormarmmu confirmed
....Phoenix Wright, Emma Frost, Ghost Rider, Strider, Daredevil, Punisher, and Gene all confirmed NOT to be in the game. No Power Stone or Rival Schools characters either
..However Miles Edgeworth and Albert Wesker are strongly hinted at. And if that wasn't enough...
- Phoenix's moveset for TvC was pretty much finished, he even had official art for the game
- The director of Okamiden, has stated that he's a big fan of Phoenix Wright, and will bug the MvC3 director to have him added
- MvC3's director has said he MIGHT put in Phoenix for the fans, however it's nothing more than a maybe at this point, so we shouldn't get our hopes up
- Those who want him in should make their voices heard. Capcom wants to see demand for him.
Now on the gameplay side of things...
- Despite earlier interviews, the team is working really hard on balance, because they know how the fans feel about the terrible imbalance of MvC2
- Each character will apparently have "amazing endings"
- Ammy won't get her own stage, she barely made it through to become a playable character
- Character themes will return
- They've done their best to make Ammy's gameplay work, despite her form.
I think that's about it for now. One last thing I heard is that it's confirmed to have more characters than SSFIV, meaning since each side needs an even amount of characters we can expect atleast 36 characters. It may even be that number exactly.
