It had a store where you could unlock so much stuff. Thats really a main reason it was so great. Costumes, new characters, artwork etc. It was insane how much unlockable content it had. Today, companies just shit out all that stuff as "DLC" and "seasonal content". Its good money afterall; ask people to pay up 20 bucks to get 5 characters in a few months, instead of just bringing out a full, complete game. Honestly, I miss games where you could unlock characters and other fun stuff. DLC or cheatcodes just dont do it for me.

@OnkelCthulhu Ай бұрын

I remember, you could get half the secret characters free on dreamcast, and the arcade has a slot for dreamcast safecard, where you could get the other half free. but the arcade was only in japan and maybe in the US, it was a pita to got a savegame for my dreamcast in europe.

People started playing other games because of Justin Wong's dominance of this one game for years to come at Battle by the Bay 5 and the EVOs to come.

For those who never played the Japanese Dreamcast version, in that one in order to unlock the characters you needed arcade points which meant having to go the local arcade and insert your VMU in the special slot by the controls to collect those points and later spend them on your dreamcast MvC2 game. I had this version but no access to Japanese MvC2 machine and my local game store luckily had a VMU save with everything unlocked which they lent me so I could copy it. Good crazy times and what a legendary game.

MVC2 is a standard. It's much more polished in MVC1 but not too technical than MVC3. Not to mention they have always find new tech to the game than any other game is out there. It deserves a remaster, balance change.. sh*t girl, maybe DLC balance patches and possible DLC units if they wanted to. It has a rather large following for being a 20 year old game. The next game next to that for me, was CVS2. That game needs a part 3 for Capcom to hit another homerun like they did with SF6.

I put the Arcade difficulty on level 1 just to see if the DC really "learned" from how you play as advertised. So I get my xp level to 46 on diff 1. Means I 1cc the game every time. My buddy comes over who also had this game at the time; he sits down to play on my DC. He got to the 3rd fight , and the CPU did some dirty werk to this guy. He got his butt kicked so bad, then he looked at me and said "what difficulty do you play on?" I said "difficulty 1" like what did u expect. That was the first time I saw proof that the DC DOES in fact learn from how you play. I then started the game over from the 1st fight, and he watched me 1cc the game like I always did.
