So I was trying to show a friend the video of Deadpool using a health bar to beat people with and as I was watching these videos I realized Deadpool was voiced by Mr. North. Now I know a lot of people here like to joke about Nolan North being in everything but I do in fact like his voice a lot. And really, Nolan North being in everything is almost breaking the fourth wall as it is so it seems to fit well.
Anyway. Here is a video if you want to hear for yourself. Skip to 3:10 for my favourite part! (Super sorry if this is old news. I've been getting really excited for this game recently and just stumbled upon it today)
Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds
Game » consists of 10 releases. Released Feb 15, 2011
After a decade-long hiatus, Marvel vs. Capcom 3 continues the popular crossover fighting game series characterized by fast-paced gameplay, complex tag teams, and elaborate combos.
Nolan North strikes again!
While I do agree with you that Mr. North is a very good voice actor, I'm pretty sure news of this was released quite a while ago, so expect to get some unsavory comments from other people who aren't as polite as I am.
But yeah, Nolan North. And Deadpool is goofy enough for Mr. North to be used to good effect.
Oh lord! I would buy the game if he voiced Kratos!
@benjaebe:
I am even more excited as well. I decided to put Deadpool in my starting three because of this news . Bumped Chris out.
" @Gabriel: lol MvC3 will trump MK9, MK9 doesn't even have any cancels, combos, links, etc. Instead they have "Custom Combos" what the fuck is that shit? Everyone will only play for the fatalities and it will be popular among small kids only. "Shove it up your ass fighting game elitist.
" @Sasran said:Unless he's voicing Striker who is just an NPC that would be pretty awesome tooHis voice is offscreen but I'm putting my money on Johnny Cage...or Kratos. "" @Gabriel: lmao nice. I suddenly have a bit of interest in MK9. Who is he supposed to be voicing? "

Most people seem to think North is voicing Stryker for MK9, and it'd fit with that clip, since it seems to be set during the Outworld invasion of Earth that happened in MK3. Jeff is going to be stoked.
" Yo he's gonna be in a better fighting game...Who will win the Nolan North the Northies this year Nathan Drake, Johnny Cage, or Deadpool?I was excited about MK9 but hearing that Nolan North is Johnny Cage ( aka my favourite character because one time on vacation I wore glasses like his and my friends called me Johnny Cage) this will be my GOTY. I love Nolan North :D
"
No, he hasn't. Considering that they've still got some spaces to fill, though, and that they've said on multiple occasions that the characters the fans love will be in it, there's a good chance. Most of the general discussion forums at the MK9 site have been filled with people demanding Stryker come back in. Apparently his status as an average Joe cop and man of the people has won over more people than anyone thought.
lol y u mad mr. casual? Because you suck at most fighting games and so lack the basic understanding of what makes a fighting game fun and complex?" @Mrsignerman44 said:

Okay, lets not turn this into a flame war. Talk about our love for Nolan North, Marvel vs Capcom or MK9 since its been added to the discussion but we don't need to hate.

Don't forget their new Kustom Kombos."

I ain't no fightin' expert, so pray tell, can you have the same character fight himself?
If so, that'd be the second instance of Nolan North interacting with Nolan North. Albeit, in not such a blatant fashion as previously.
Oh man, that would be so good. I'll bet that you can have a duplicate but it'd be even better if like in MvC2 you could have the same character 6 times. I wonder if Deadpool has any unique dialog for defeating himself.
Oh man. I can't believe I didn't know about all this before. I really like the way he yells "BANG!".
EDIT: Okay. I don't know much about Deadpool but how is he able to reattach his arm? Does he have some super powers? In what little I have seen I never seen him use any powers.
" @CH3BURASHKA: Oh man, that would be so good. I'll bet that you can have a duplicate but it'd be even better if like in MvC2 you could have the same character 6 times. I wonder if Deadpool has any unique dialog for defeating himself. "
Whoah whoa whoah! You could do that in MvC2? I don't remember that. And i played heaps of that game.
" @Bloodgraiv3 said:"Logan, i think we lost him" with hulk right behind them gets me every time, i dont know why :(" Hell yeah he does, he played deadpool in the animated wolverine movie. "He was really good as Deadpool in that. Hulk vs Wolverine. The very end part with Hulk and Deadpool was hilarious. "
Ah, okay. That makes sense. I imagine they use that for shock and comedic effect quite often then?
@Lukeweizer:
Dude I am so jealous right now! I would like to get in contact with your agent so that I may also be voice by Nolan North. Thanks very much!
@Shirogane:
Yeah, my friend and I once had a Servbot/Servbot/Servbot vs Servbot/Servbot/Servbot match. It seemed like a good idea at the time but it went poorly (we lack skill at the game) and the time ran out -_-
North as Deadpool is old news, but I am surprised to hear he's going to be Johnny Cage. Good choice.
And this thread needs this video with the man himself:
