Rumour: Capcom vs. Namco in the works
And that's not all.
Capcom vs. Namco and Namco vs. Capcom are two games currently in development, US mag Game Informer reckons.
Sources told the mag that Capcom will make Capcom vs. Namco using the Street Fighter IV engine, and Namco Bandai will create Namco vs. Capcom with the Tekken 6 engine.
Rumour suggests Street Fighter main man Yoshinori Ono is in charge of Capcom vs. Namco, and Namco Bandai's Katsuhiro Harada is leading the Namco vs. Capcom charge.
Apparently a fighting game debut trailer will go live on Saturday 24th July during Comic-Con.
We already know Ono will unveil his new game at the show.
A couple of weeks ago he tweeted: "SuperSF4 is nothing compared to what's coming!!"
Fans have speculated that Ono's new game is a Darkstalkers reboot. However, one game Ono has denied he's working on is Capcom vs. SNK 3.
"Personally, I hope for it. But I don't have time. Will anyone make it? :D" he said, once again, via Twitter.

How are they gonna make fireballs work in Namco Vs. Capcom? I suppose they could just exclude Fireballs characters or just remove those moves. But... ah... I can't wait!

I've been praying for this since the first rumours. I figured the rumours were actually just that new Megaman game though.

Mr Driller v Ken.
Maybe the Namco side will be a bit more obscure?! That would be fun.

Also, Voldo/Vega...(claw, obv) Rock/Zangief...There are more direct namco comparisons... Taki/Chun Li...than I thought! o_0 They'll feature a broad-er range of sources to draw characters from, though I think, lol

Ooh! Let's discuss fantasy rosters! Let's see....Capcom characters would be fairly obvious. Namco would have Tekken, Soul Calibur, Pac-Man, Tales of Symphonia etc, Xenosaga.

Edit: Ono Posted this on his twitter
"Now, I called Harada-san as Tekken Project Leader. He was laughing about Rumor."

See that. Laughing at you Wesley.
The rumour going around in fighting game circles anyway, is that its Shonen Jump Vs Capcom and Namco is involved because they own a bunch of properties like Dragonball, Naruto and One Piece.
