Posted by Paleface on May 25, 2020 at 19:33:49 EST in reply to Taking two buttons away from the Capcom guys just makes the game even more Capcom. This had already been established by MvC2 eight months earlier and has stayed with all the VS games (I think, I haven’t played five of them at this point probably). These changes are weird but people clearly loved it, the same people who like 3D Street Fighter. It’s a hit. With the fighting game scene having shrunk at that point by quite a bit they had to unify the genres. (n/t) from SignOfZeta.
CvS2 is six buttons. And are you saying Capcom fans liked CvS1 being four buttons? That strikes me as unlikely. (Or were you talking about MvC2? That's a whole 'nother kettle of fish; the Marvel games play so differently than the "traditional" SF games that I think people were probably much more willing to try different controls.)
