LOL @ the Wii fanboy gloating, due to the fact that they finally got a game people want to play.......after what? A year and a half? That's nothing to brag about.
It's no wonder people want a port. Who wants a system they're only likely to be excited about once a year, if that?
That said, I'll be buying it on the Wii, but I'm not drinking the Nintendo Kool-Aid. Anyone (who's not a developer) who defends exclusives, is a fanboy.
If your allegience is to a faceless corporation, rather than your fellow gamer, there's no other word for you.
While having it on 360 would be nice for the graphics & Live, I'm sure Capcom would make it so the Gatchaman characters were DLC & would make you pay for the unlock key.
@loafing:The ridicule is justifiable as it's akin to bitching about Infamous not being on the 360 or Lost and Damned not being on PS3. The fact that you and your friends play your fighting games on the 360 or that you have the perfect setup for it on the 360 is irrelevant.
@MOB712:It's so nice to use strawmen and pulled from thin-air 'facts' to back up a debate with no legs, isn't it? Brawl started out just like every other game, unknown. It's the marketing and the gameplay that sell games.
Anyway it's always nice to see a new, stupid meme born here on Kotaku, one I'm sure will be run into the ground, dug up and used time and again, much like the bitching over Fallout DLC, GTA DLC, RROD and how the PSP is 'misunderstood'
I'm still disappointed that the Tatsunoko roster didn't have a few more characters that I personally adore.
C'mon guys, you couldn't include a character from either Neon Genesis Evangelion OR Samurai Pizza Cats? This game could totally benefit greatly from some Samurai Pizza Cat hilarity.
I am desperately hoping there are more Wii exclusive characters than have been announced.
@n00b_pwner: It's a company from Japan famous for it's Superhero cartoons. A few of the cartoons aired in America, but I doubt you'd recognize characters that aren't Ace or Princess.
So when a good game comes to the Wii, people just want a 360 port? (don't lie, this isn't the first place, I've read comments like this)
My conclusion is that people want to hate on the Wii so bad, they beg for all the good games to be ported over to other consoles.
(don't take this personally but,) No matter what happens, people will ALWAYS find something to hate on the Wii for.
If Nintendo announced at E3 they were ditching friend codes, copying Xbox Live, supporting DLC, and Making a new Zelda, Kid Icarus, Mario Galaxy, Pikmin 3 etc. *eople will still complain, no matter what.
@idofriar1313: Someone wanting to play a game on your system does not mean they want your system to fail. Jesus shit, how do you even get that from what he said?
I'd want it on the 360 for online play, and because it would look better. If the wii could honestly handle 360 or ps3 ports you'd be asking for them all the time.
Seriously now though a new game? I think my Wii will overload in 2009 from too much core gaming. I wonder where I left my stock of rainbowz poniez and babiez.
Until The Conduit is proven to be more than a completely average shooter that just happens to have well done motion controls what incentive is there for me to care about this studio's new project?

Also, Racer X needs to be in this.

Well... Capcom said that maybe they will include some other characters...
There are 22 characters in the game now. Maybe the can add at least 8 more, like Speed Racer and Samurai Cats.
But I really think that they need to add more Capcom characters, because those are the ones that are familiar here in USA, like for example, Dante.

The Evangelion TV series is by Tatsunoko...

Perhaps a character from Monster Hunter?
It might help generate interest for Monster Hunter 3 in the Western market much like Marth and Roy did for Fire Emblem with their inclusion in Melee.

@idofriar1313: Amen brother. Amen. I hate it when something comes out as a Wii exclusive, then PS360 owners want a port.

Similarly, poorly-done motion controls could make a game that in every other way 'average' for its genre, much worse than average.
