Games
X-men vs. Street Fighter
X-Men vs. Street Fighter
This was the first game in the series and was released in 1996. It set the style for the games that would appear after it by including a simpler fighting system to that of Capcom's flagship Street Fighter series and let players achieve combos and other special attacks more easily. The game only included X-men and Street Fighter characters and this would later be expanded in future game to include characters from the companies' other franchises.
Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter
Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter
The second game in the franchise now included a roster of characters from across the Marvel universe and not just X-men, although Street Fighter was still the only Capcom series represented. The game was released in 1998 and was almost completely identical to the original in terms of gameplay and locations. Many fans were disappointed in the roster as it included the same amount of characters as the fist game even though the whole Marvel mythos was now represented.
