Marvel Games wanted to 'surprise' and 'delight' fans with the new collection.
During last week's Nintendo Direct, one of the most exciting announcements was Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics. Launching later this year, the compilation will feature a number of beloved games, including Marvel Super Heroes, Marvel vs. Capcom , and The Punisher. Given some of the complications that can arise when it comes to older licensed games, the announcement was a very pleasant surprise.
"We have this rich history of making games with Capcom, going all the way back to Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter, X-Men vs. Street Fighter... all of those really incredible titles that people remember playing back in the '90s. So we're always looking for ways to really surprise and hopefully delight our fans. So the idea of bringing these games back was always really, really exciting to us, so we're glad to finally be able to announce it to everybody" said Hathaway.
Judging by the overwhelmingly positive reaction to this collection, it would seem Marvel's goal of delighting fans has been well and truly accomplished. Capcom's Marvel fighting games have held a special place in the hearts of players for decades now, but those games have been pretty hard to come by, and have gotten limited releases on home platforms. Outside of the expensive Arcade1Up cabinet, there just haven't been a lot of ways to play these titles on newer hardware. At $49.
