Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Marvel and Capcom discuss Storm and Akuma's colors

I always like these. Hope they'll do 'em for every character and every color.

I don't get why they call alternate colors alternate costumes... can someone explain this to me?

hahah capcom pretends that their mere color swaps are anything major and important... I mean serously, who cares?

dunno why every single one gets an own article, a quick heads up in a news collection should prolly be enough imo.

The two black Storm costumes are gonna be really hard to tell apart.

It's just new colors. Don't think this is DLC or something.

Characters need a green or blue color. There's too much red, white and black. Dare I say it, they should also make some orange colors.

I'm sorry but the comparisons of Akuma skins are superficial. It feels like the Capcom side is trying to show us that their alternate colors also have some meaningful origin. Not really, they were simply randam color swaps, unlike the awesome Marvel colors which are inspired by actual comic editions' looks and gear.

BTW, I love to see Storm in purple, which is my second favorite color, and showing less skin. A bit more classy. Also, purple is a meaningful color for her since symbolizes royalty/sovereignty.

Didnt know that Storm was capable of wielding Thor's Hammer.

lmao i find it funny as h3ll that capcom really thinks that they are actually putting thought into what colors a character wears. marvel yes. capcom No. i mean what it only took 5 sec to come up with an idea. all white/nurse nemiuses(srry if i got the name wrong)was prof enough lol

look capcom, mavel does their thing and you guys do yalls (which is trying to get every last penny they can get from us).

btw evil oni is Blue/green for crying out loud XD.
Fail!!!

Costume =/= Color Swap

@10

I meant characters having a green color swap in UMvC3. I like my teams having good color coordination.

they need new costumes, colors are like meh...

Kinda stupid that they ditched Storm's red color for another black.

Link for pic1 goes to pic 2 and pic 2 link doesnt work at all.

For akuma*

Fixed.

this is Lazy and so stupid. just give us costumes.

TGS is going to be on Sept. 15-18.

@12

oh i wasnt talking to you. i just pointing out the color mistake they had on akuma.

This is just really f'n stupid. What the hell is stopping you from making new suits, Capcom? Really?

Oh wait, you want to charge us a nickel and a dime for everything. Wonderful. You'd think out of ANYTHING they'd take away from Harada, free (or earned) content and customization would be it…but no.

When will they finally get to Zero? I just want to know if they added the black armor he had in the X series. If they do, I'll forgive a tiny bit of all the retarded things Capcom's been doing lately.

If they are just going to be color swaps why not atleast 10 like sfIV? Doesn't seem so difficult to do for them.

Capcom's intentions to relate its colors to other SF games are getting more confusing by the minute. One of Akuma's colors were imspired by Oni's color in AE? How's the make any sense? Last post was Nemesis' color was inpsired by some unknown nurse that is totally unrelated the RE series. If they say, it was supposed to be Rebecca Chambers from RE Zero, that made more sense.

So if Akuma collects the 7 Magical DragonBalls, he turns into Oni?

Thats kinda awesome. Are they spread throughout varies stages? Do you have to constantly use Akuma to collect them?

We need answers Capcom!

I like these articles.

Ooh, new Storm colors.

Really digging the blue/white look.

Is it just me or was the guy who made akumas colour swaps colour blind?

There all slightly off colour.

Oni is too much of a reach

Wow guys, are you REALLY complaining about them calling the colors costumes? Really? They call them that because they're based on actual costumes from the comics/games. It's not hard to understand, and it's not something you should be b*tching about.

@9

Thor's hammer is a mystical weapon that can only be lifted by a champion who has proven themself worthy!

...and space cyborgs... and robots... and random architects... and frogs...

I don't mind the colors but what about he DLC costumes I wonder why they don't have alternate colors also! You download a ternate costume and you ONLY have one color to choos from which is bad.I really hope they do something about that soon! And as far ad DLC is coming.I would like to see what type of alternate costume they are going to give Nemisis ,Trish, Haggar, spider-man, wolverine, phoenix and so on

I like the SF3 Akuma thing going on...but why not have Shin Akuma colors while you're at it? (3rd Strike "smurf" Shin, CvS2 Shin)

at #36

aint the alpha one Shin Akuma?

wasnt he a bit more purple-like with the grey/white hair on the side?

i just dont remember normal akuma having white hair, and as the colour is more bright is seems more liek shin.

as for the colours them selves, i really dont care, in game i wont be caring, and some of them are just ugly, inspirated or not. other seem laking, Dr Strange costume, where they comment that by then his wardrobe was a bit more expensive, and they show you him with a light red robe, high aristrocat stuff, and converted to the game the colour doesent even resemble that costume.

one that IMO was really good and perhaps better then the original was the one they said was found in the official marvel book. starnge looks sick there,

some of these colours with the ingame effects and graphics can becmoe ugly or not so apealing :S

wesker was/is damn cool but why when i won as him he always had this weird shadow on his nose?

things fetl somewhat soulless to me.

i dunno maybe i am waaaaay overthinking stuff. call them colour swaps like a cpcom game and it works good.
