Capcom's Schedule

birman.jpgCapcom's got their schedule (or shhhhedule as my wife would say) posted in their forums. Lots going on besides the games. There will be appearances by Mega Man and Harvey Birdman, the producer of Ace Attorney (Minae Matsukawa) and the writer of Shade II cellphone MMO (Marv Wolfman).

There will also be some gaming tournaments, including Lost Planet on the Xbox 360 and Puzzle Fighter and non-press will get their first chance for a bit of hands on with Umbrella Chronicles and Zack and Wiki.

There will not be, I repeat NOT BE, a cage match between the new Mega Man and the old Birdman. I think a small party of me died inside. Hit the jump for the full shhhhhhhhedule.

Show hours: 10am-7pm daily, 10am - 5pm on Sunday

THURSDAY


10:00am - 2:00pm Mega Man ZX Advent costumed actor (new costume)

We got a fairly amazing new Mega Man suit, and someone's a-gonna be wearin' it. Thrill to the exciting new look of the next-gen Blue Bomber as our Mega Man poses, then possibly loiters a little, and then poses again!


11:00am - 1:00pm Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo: HD Remix tournament

A minute to learn, a lifetime to master. It was a big hit at e3, but this will be the gaming public's first chance to get hands-on with the classic competitive puzzling favorite. SPF2T:HD Remix has a fresh new High-Def look as well as the new "X Prime" mode, featuring all-new drop patterns and rebalanced characters, so the competition is anybody's game.

2:00pm - 4:00pm Nerdcore showcase (Ultraklystron, Nursehella, Beefy)


Day 1 of our Nerdcore parade. Check out their myspace pages to get a taste of what these alpha-nerds are cooking.

4:30pm - 6:30pm Lost Planet XBOX 360 tournament

Q: What goes better together than Lost Planet's icey goodness and hot hot competition?
A: Nothing.

Come one, come all to our Lost Planet tournament extravaganza. Entry is first-come, first-served and space is limited, so make sure to show up early to secure your spot!


4:30pm - 5:30pm Shade autograph session featuring Shade writer Marv Wolfman, character designer Dave Daniels, and studio head Dave Dies.


Capcom's Shade II is the follow up to the first ever MMWRPG (Massively Multiplayer Wireless Role-Playing Game), Shade (let's call it "Shade 1" retroactively).

FRIDAY

10:00am - 2:00pm Harvey Birdman Actor

Not just ANY Harvey Birdman actor either—it's the real guy from the cartoon show. But wait—real guy from a cartoon show? Well... yes. Think back to the live-action segments of Harvey Birdman, and you've got the picture. That's the dude we'll have strutting around. He's sure to be full of hot gossip about life on the set, which he probably won't share with you.

10:00am - 2:00pm Mega Man costumed actor (new costume)

Supposing Dr. Wily hasn't caught up with him overnight, the spanking new Mega Man will be back and cold lamping at our booth.

5:30pm - 6:30pm Shade autograph session featuring Shade writer Marv Wolfman, character designer Dave Daniels, and studio head Dave Dies.


Second verse, same as the first. Unfortunately for all of you, I am a Teen Titans nut, and so will be first in line to make Marv Wolfman sign everything I own until he falls over dead. No cuts.

SATURDAY


10:00am - 2:00pm Mega Man costumed actor (new costume)

That's right: the costume rides again.
