    Still April 1st in Japan, Shoryuken.com have found that the latest Famitsu has an article on Capcom vs. SNK 3. ( http://www.shoryuken.com/content.php?r=510) While I'm not holding my hopes up until more info is released, I do remember that the original Capcom vs SNK was also announced on a particular April 1st week. So what about everyone else, get hype?

    God I fucking hope so. CvsS2 is one of my all-time favourite fighting games, and I'd love to see a third game. Obviously the timing is very dubious, but if it's true that that a Vs game has been announced on April 1st before, then I'd say it's pretty damn hard to tell.

    If I remember correctly, I saw the first Capcom vs. SNK announcement in an April issue of EGM. And we all know how notorious EGM is with their April Fools Day humor.

    The BG looks like a BG from TvC. So does Ryu.

    I'd prefer to see a new Capcom v SNK in the style of King Of Fighters XII. Those hi-res sprites look really good. I'd be interested to see what the Street Fighters look like in that style.

    It's late afternoon on the day of fools so it's time to revel the tricks. Shoryuken.com has confirmed their hand in the April Fools prank. ( http://www.shoryuken.com/content.php?r=519). The image is indeed photoshop'd with Tatsunoko vs Capcom and King of Fighters XII art. The day of fools will continue haunt the Capcom vs SNK legacy.
