Hakushon Daimao not coming to North America in Tatsunoko vs. Capcom
Well, we knew part of the Tatsunoko vs. Capcom roster wasn’t going to make it overseas. It looks like that rumor proved to be at least partially true. Hakushon Daimaou, from The Genie Family, is being cut from the game for its North American release. Ryota Niitsuma (the game’s producer) confirmed it.
I guess it’s OK to tell everyone this now. He’s [Hakushon Daimaou] not in the game. We had some licensing issues with him so we weren’t able to obtain him for the American version.
Really, of all the Tatsunoko characters in the game, he seems to be the least popular, so it’s probably not a big loss. It has been confirmed previously that any cut characters will be replaced by others, so you can look for at least one new Tatsunoko character in his place.
