The History of Marvel vs Capcom's 'Special Partners'.

This video took 7 weeks to make. On top of the ridiculous amount of research and fact checking, I had to learn to play X-Men: COTA, Marvel Super Heroes, MSH vs SF and (for just 1 combo) Tatsunoko vs Capcom. Games I have never put any time into and really didn't understand until now. This was because I wanted to include some fun combos for the characters featured in those games. Basically, I wanted it to be clearly authored by someone who both loves and can (to some degree) play, fighting games.
Also, it's important to mention that all the information in this video refers specifically to Capcom made fighting games. For example, mentioning the fact that Jubilee never became a playable character simply means that you couldn't play as her in any 2d, Capcom fighting games. I'm sure you could probably play as her in some of those random 3d x-men games at some point.
It's difficult to describe the relief I'm feeling from making the final draft of this video. I got super burnt out several times when trying to put this together and it seems to be pretty much impossible for it to ever be successful enough to justify the time I put in. I'm still glad I made it though and I do have another couple of ideas for longer form videos if any of you guys particularly enjoyed this one and want to see more.
Anyway, thanks so much for watching and for reading through my nonsense, it's much appreciated. You can support me by checking out any of the links below.

I have this strong belief for a long time that Mvc1's assists were a decisive inspiration for the larger "1st party festivity" tone of Smash since Brawl and since they added trophies. It's a smart and efficient way to add more content, adding something to the actual gameplay, involving chars that might not be fit or worthy of a playable char role, and that adds value to chars/franchises that may be "forgotten". Kof 00 also had a Very similar approach with assists, and It was only done once in the series, and interestingly Very near Mvc1's release. It's a Shame that Capcom never went back to that system. They were pioneers on that. But now Smash has taken over the field. I wish a Future Mvc title could accomodate that old system somehow not conflicting with the modern Mvc2 assist concept. Content wise it's going to be very tough for any crossover fg to compete against Smash Ultimate, so Capcom will need to use all cool history fanservice at hand to their advantage.

Imo they missed a precious oppurtunity to implement that systm when Mvc got big with Mvc3... That would have complimented and reinforced the overall tone of Mvc3 so well.

@@carlosaugusto9821 TBF, this sort of 1st Party celebration was kinda common practice back in the 90s. Konami did this with zany cute-em ups of Parodius, which not only referenced Gradius up the wazoo, but would pull elements from other SHMUPs Konami made back then and even beyond (like Raiden, Truxton, R-Type, Darius...) - and I'd also argue Bubble Symphony (a.k.a Bubble Bobble 2) did implement fully on this "Assist"-feature way back on 1993 via various items you could find in the game to summon other Taito-mascots/arcade icons at the time (including the legendary ship from Space Invaders) Nevertheless, I believe not only did Capcom pull off these sort of tributes right starting from Pocket Fighter, they got to tap on something that Smash probably never will: having iconic fighting game characters and beyond duke it out against iconic comic book icons.

@Frizzurd Kinda? The longer answer is that she just calls the plasmoids "fireworks," but can will them to be as weak or as powerful as she wants to no damage to herself. They can go from blinding someone to detonating and destroying objects, and can be wide-spread or needle precision. Emma Frost even said at one point that if she REALLY wanted to, she could detonate matter at a subatomic level. Otherwise, characters like Wolverine only have adamantium claws and healing ability, as well as Cyclops only having varying optic blasts, and both of them got a full moveset.

@@KEN-1991 Capcom had nothing to do with NxC. It was made by Monolithsoft. The same Monolithsoft that makes the Xenoblade games and made the Project x Zone games which were sequels to NxC. NxC was also a turn-based SRPG with minimal sprite work so they can cram in as many characters as possible. Not at all comparable to a fighting game that needed thousands of sprites made for each character. MVC also only had a year or two of development and was limited by the CPS2 hardware it was made on. That's why they couldn't go beyond having around 15 playable characters for every MVC game they made on that hardware. It wasn't until MVC2 that they could put all the characters in the series into one game plus many new characters because they moved development to the Naomi hardware which was basically the arcade version of the Dreamcast.

I think this video just goes to show that Capcom's games history is so deep and crazy. They have so many deep cut characters that they can literally make their own fighting game that would just have nothing but THEIR characters in it, and it would be a large ass roster. LOL

MvC was the reason why I know who US Agent is, then I read Infinity Gauntlet, and then I did my research. And it was a treat that mainstream audiences know who he is now thanks to Falcon and The Winter Soldier. Great video overall. I love video game history, and this gave me one of my all time faves.👍

This was very educational and I appreciate all the hard work you put into compiling this! Despite the wings on Michelle Heart I literally had no inclination to guess she's from Legendary Wings and actually is the lead character. The issue is in the NES release they portray her as a nameless man so that was always my only frame of reference having not really played the Arcade game much. Unknown Soldier was also tough because in the original game both men were more lean and triathlon looking while in MVC they made him more buffed.
