HERE COMES A NEW CHALLENGER!!!
REVILED
Source: Mega Man Network

With the announcement that new characters are slated to be added to the US release of Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom, fans have been hopeful to find out who those characters are. Now we may know, but unfortunately I must file this one under speculation.

According to COCOROG, a page on Capcom of Japan's new website for Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom: Ultimate All Stars had unused source code which named the new hidden characters to appear: Zero (albeit which series is unknown), Frank (Dead Rising), Yatterman #2 (Yatterman) and Joe the Condor (Gatchaman). Additionally there is Tekkaman Blade, who is actually on the site.

Looking into the site myself, however, I was unable to find this code spoken of. Nevertheless, COCOROG is a long time trusted source of mine. So either COCOROG is simply wrong, or Capcom got wise to their mistake and removed the code. If anyone is up to some investigating though, we'll be happy to hear what you find. Nevertheless, if this information is true it should be confirmed by the time TGS rolls around.

Update: A post on GoNintendo appears to indicate that the source code did in fact used to be on the website. So Zero appearing in TvC seems that much more likely.

Needs More Tron!

Yeah, Tron needed to be in so she could go up against Trigger. But she had MvsC2, so...

Come to think of it, MMZ Zero was in SNK Vs Capcom, maybe we'll see MMX Zero now?

More like flirting with robots, followed by hilarious explosions. (Gwad I miss MML2)

I'm actually hoping for the old MMX Zero (Not a fan of the newer "model")

Who's to say that it can't be both, as one of them is an alt. skin?

'Course, some people have been saying that it's a completely different Zero altogether. Especially since this Zero actually made it into the possible roster list for the game.

That would make me cry. It's like having it end up being the Zero Virus from Battle Network. Not what many people where expecting or hoping.

And the reason why we can't have both is because it's basically the same character, with different "skin". The reason I wanted the X Zero isn't that I am a fan, but I would like to at least have ONE character from the X series in a fighting game, and since Trigger is already in, and MMZ Zero has already graced a couple I figured that the original Zero should get the bill.

That and because no one REALLY cares for Axl... HONESTLY!

... NO ONE!

Probably because it was more popular in the West than it was in it's native land?

I still find the lack of Dante in a Capcom fighting game disturbing.

The one time that Saban managed to make a show BETTER with its dubbing.

HE LIVES!

He is revealed at last, and it's the X series Zero to boot, marking the first time a Mega Man X character has graced a fighting game, to my knowledge. Aside from the above video, you can also catch some additional screens at IGN.

Check out Zero's skills from X5. He uses Dark Hold to finish off his opponent in his super!

CALLED Prayed for IT!

Nah, Brawl has Sonic VS Mario, that stuff still cuts deep, deeper than Zero's lightsaber for sure.

I have to say I would have prefered Zero Zero instead of Classic Zero, but I just loved the art style of the Zero series.

The current other characters added to the game are two Tatsunoko characters: Joe the Condor, from the same series as Ken the Eagle and Jun the Swan, of course, and Tekkaman Blade, an alternate version of Tekkaman.

Additionally, due to licensing issues, the rather racist caricature that was Hakushon Daimou is being removed from Ultimate All-Stars, meaning there's an empty Tatsunoko character slot that needs to be filled. Rumors have been saying it'll be Yatterman No. 2.

I can't be bothered to look up the sources on all of this =D

The final "leaked" character has finally been revealed.

There is also a rumor that more hidden characters are to be expected. 😮

Also, fight sticks are being released for this game for those so inclined.

And now Yatterman (Time Bokan) is complete with Yatterman's (1) girlfriend.

If I was going to buy a Wii, it would be for only this game... Damn you Wii...

Damn you! [clenches fist]

Yeah so it's been weeks since anyone has talked about Tatsunoko vs CAPCOM, but THIS bit of news had upset me to a point.

Finally, the producer confirms that the animated endings seen in Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Cross Generation of Heroes will not be present in Ultimate All-Stars. Instead, the game will feature the previously announced endings by UDON.

[RAGE!] Why can't I enjoy my animated Rockman Voltnut in peace?

Sure I like UDON, but I love me some animated ROCKMAN VOLTNUT DAMNIT!

Besides, you cannot illustrate awesomeness such as THIS can you?

... CAN YOU!? >:E
