What are Phoenix Wright and Ingrid doing in TvC?

Recommended Videos

Does anyone tease as mush as Capcom? Seems like they enjoy talking about the games they thought about making just as much as the stuff they actually finish. Take this sample from the Secret File promotional ‘zine for Tatsunoko Vs Capcom for instance. It features official-looking artwork of (headless) Phoenix Wright (maybe by Shinkiro?) and what appear to be in-game screenshots of the game featuring Ingrid from Capcom Fighting Jam. Awesome.

Actually, I could go either way on Ingrid, but Phoenix Wright is something else. The ideas that Capcom had for his combat style were brilliant. Why are they showing this to us now? Is there a chance that he could end up in the game after all, or is Capcom just looking to frustrate me (again)?

If Phoenix doesn’t make it into this fighter, how about next one? Please Capcom?

Please?

OK, enough begging. You can look at the original file in the gallery, as well as the close up of the Ingrid/Phoenix bits used for the image above.

Tell me what you think this all means.
