Nintendo vs Capcom is a tentative crossover fighting game based on the original Vs. series franchise, Marvel vs Capcom that is published by Capcom and developed by Capcom and 8ing. The console release is on the Nintendo Wii U and 3DS and uses 3-D character sprites with 2-D backgrounds in each level, both handled by
Shinkiro (character models) and Hiroshi Matsuyama (background graphics). The game plays like Capcom's Vs. series combined with Nintendo's Smash Bros. series. The game features playable modes that include Arcade mode, Survival, Tournament, Versus, an Options menu, a Training mode and Extras mode featurings.
The game plays like a cross between Marvel vs Capcom 3 and classic arcade fighters. It has the epic combo system and action of the latest of the Vs. series, but also has the zany, nosalgic, cartoony fighting of an arcade fighter.
