Complexity is in the DNA of most modern fighting games, and Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars is no exception. The game’s hefty character list, intricate mechanics, and hyperkinetic presentation could easily spook fighting first-timers, potentially sending them running from the room when they see terms like "advancing guard,” "crossover air raid,” or "baroque combo” flash across the screen. But while fighting veterans will revel in Tatsunoko vs. Capcom’s deeply satisfying combat, the game is without a doubt one of the easiest in the genre to jump into, thanks to control schemes that cater to everyone from brawling neophytes to air combo aficionados. Some character balance issues and a more-difficult-than-necessary online experience hold it back, but if you’re a Wii owner and you’ve been itching for a fight, then Tatsunoko vs. Capcom is a great sparring partner no matter what your starting skill level.
Last year’s Street Fighter revival reinvigorated the fighting genre, but don’t expect the same type of experience from Tatsunoko vs. Capcom. Tatsunoko is far more fast-paced than Street Fighter IV and is more akin to Capcom’s classic Vs. title, Marvel vs. Capcom 2. This 2.5D fighter (3D characters on a 2D plane) lets you choose two playable characters, and you’ll be able to switch between them at almost any time during a match. Just as in Marvel vs. Capcom 2, smart switching is vital, not only because a newly switched character is momentarily open to attack, but also because "resting” characters slowly regain a portion of their lost health. Swapping characters also plays strongly into offensive and defensive strategies, with tag-ins used to lengthen combos or disrupt enemy attacks.
The basic control scheme in Tatsunoko has been simplified from previous Vs. titles to now feature only four buttons: three for attacks (light, medium, and strong) and one dedicated for calling in your partner to assist. Special moves are performed using a variety of quarter-circle, half-circle, charge, and button combos, while the game’s flashy hyper combo attacks are similarly done using D pad/stick movements in conjunction with button presses. These over-the-top hypers vary in effectiveness, but they do share the common trait of being visually spectacular. They range from the functional (Ryu’s shinku hadoken) to the brutal (Polimar’s multihit illusion destructive fist) and even include the comical (Roll’s tsunami-from-a-bucket finisher called Oh. No. You. Didn’t.).
The game may seem less complex because it uses fewer buttons, but this simplicity belies the depth of each character’s move set. Combining D pad/stick direction with button presses changes the nature of an attack; pressing strong while standing, for example, performs an uppercut, while pressing the same button while holding down on the D pad results in a sweep. The same applies to special moves; the attack button you use determines the direction or effect of an attack or, in some cases, changes a move entirely. There’s plenty of intricacy to be found in Tatsunoko, and it will take some serious play time with the game’s rock-solid mechanics to get the nuances of each character down pat.
