Perhaps you've heard there are new characters coming to the U.S. version of Capcom's over-the-top Wii fighting game, Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom? One of those new characters has been revealed at the Tokyo Game Show: It's none other than Dead Rising's hardened wartime photojournalist, Frank West. Here's video proof! (Also look for some action starring stalwart anime robot guy Tekkaman Blade, another new character in this version.)  

 

   
  
In honor of Frank's occupation, here's some photographic evidence of his appearance.

Well Yeah...Frank West is a fucking Capcom hero!
 
But yeah err...Not sure if Niko is.
 
He should look more like Vince Vaughn
 
His moves are fantastic.

Three thoughts:
1. Like everybody else said, he doesn't look or sound like Frank West. He looks more like a New York cab driver cosplaying as Frank West.
2. Isn't Mega Man already in this game?
3. I think when other characters get grabbed by zombies, they should constantly go "Frank... Frank... Frank..." in the most annoying voice possible. You know, for authenticity.

Man, I know it's a super stylized version of the character, but I think the in-game Frank West looks TRRRible.

Out of all the characters that Capcom has in it's stable, why did they choose him? Throw in somebody that can at least fight properly, but not Frank West. Even Phoenix  Wright could OBJECTION!!!! his ass to death.

I find it so bizarre and ironic that they revealed a character in the western release of the game at the Tokyo Game Show... *boggles*

That doesn't even really look like our beloved Frank West, and the voice is all wrong. Oh well.

Frank shouting "DEEEEEEEEEEEEAD RISING!" as his baseball-bat move connected was the best part.

I was under the impression that this version would only release outside of Japan but seeing that all the fonts are in Japanese i'm starting to doubt that it will not eventually hit Japan. I'm sure that Japanese fans are craving to play this version since it has online play.

If it's not T.J. Rotolo's voice, it's not truly Frank West, as far as I'm concerned. That's a shame, considering everything else Frank's shown doing here is pretty entertaining.

Yes, it will be re-released in Japan also, kind of like a Super version, since it has extra characters, online play, and the all important fine tuned balance (which the first release lacked and was one of the reasons it bombed not only on Wii but also in the arcade space it first appeared).

Ouch, a re-release so soon? I wonder if they cry foul at such things like we do (ie. Street Fighter IV Dash getting lots of people complaining "omg they better not release it at full retail price or I'll nerdrage!" or heck, Left4Dead 2 getting all those peoples panties in a knot for some weird reason). Probably not, I'd assume, considering how many re-released versions of games they see over there as it is. Guess it's just par for the course?

Nerdgasm. While I was interested in the Japanese release, I was hoping they would add a few surprises if it ever came out in the West. This is surprise enough to make me want it badly.

Also did anyone notice the Japanese text for Frank West's name?
If he is exclusive to the English version why is that there?

Yes, he was. Tekkaman B and Frank West are the new ones shown so far. 3 more to go, 1 CAPCOM and 2 from the Tatsunoko side. At least, I hope they don't only add one more Tatsunoko char to replace the one removed and call it a day, not that I wouldn't buy it if that's the case.

The game's coming out in Japan too, officially making Ultimate All-Stars a revision of the original Tatsunoko vs Capcom akin to Super Street Fighter II or Capcom vs. SNK Pro.

how does tatsunoko have less characters per team as well as less pure characters than MvC2? 
 
also the xbox live version will have better online.
