《龍之子 VS. CAPCOM 英雄交鋒世代》（Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Cross Generation of Heroes）是由CAPCOM開發並於2008年在任天堂Wii平台上推出的格鬥遊戲。著名的「VS.系列」之一，融合日本著名動畫公司龍之子的角色和CAPCOM旗下經典遊戲角色，為玩家帶來獨特的跨界對決體驗。擁有豐富的角色名單、快節奏的戰鬥系統和令人眼花繚亂的視覺效果，成為當時Wii平台上非常受歡迎的格鬥遊戲之一。

因涉及龍之子的海外版權，當時僅在日本發行。為滿足國際市場的需求，於2010年推出修正版《龍之子 VS. CAPCOM 終極明星戰》，有增加一些新角色和遊戲模式。畫面採用2D格鬥對戰。CAPCOM此前已經推出過多款類似的跨界格鬥遊戲，如《Marvel vs. Capcom》系列，將美國漫畫角色與CAPCOM的遊戲角色結合。而《龍之子 VS. CAPCOM》則以日本的動畫角色為主，並首次引入龍之子動畫公司的多個知名角色，如《科學小飛俠》的鐵雄(科学忍者隊ガッチャマン鷲尾健)、以及新造人類《新造人間キャシャーン》的凱翔等。

共有近20個角色及其小遊戲，對決模式則是與鐵拳tournament或格鬥天王類似，當快要被打敗時，可更換另一角色戰鬥，更換過程也可趁機對敵方攻擊。黃金戰士萊坦是最大的角色，攻擊範圍也最大，但缺點是無法組隊及動作緩慢，導致防禦力極差。

CAPCOM與龍之子角色聚集在一起，參加跨次元的格鬥競賽。每位角色都有自己的背景故事跟專屬技能，讓戰鬥過程充滿策略性和動感。操作簡單而流暢，傳統的複雜指令簡化，以便玩家能輕鬆上手。角色擁有多種攻擊模式，分為輕攻擊、中攻擊和重攻擊，通過簡單的按鍵組合發動各種華麗的必殺技和連續技發揮最大的戰鬥力。

使用傳統的Wii遙控器、Wii經典控制器，甚至是街機搖桿來操作遊戲，這讓不同風格的玩家都能找到適合的操作方式。無論是喜歡簡單操作的休閒玩家，還是追求精確操作的格鬥遊戲愛好者，都能在對決中找到樂趣。

需要選擇兩位角色組成隊伍，並參加一系列對戰，逐步挑戰越來越強的對手。每場比賽有99秒時間限制，當對手的兩位角色都被擊敗後，就會晉級到下一場比賽，持續擊敗其他組合直到挑戰最終BOSS。最終的BOSS是CAPCOM知名作品《大神》中的常闇之皇「空亡」，是巨大的怪物，有3階段變化和強大的攻擊力，第一階段會透過衝撞來攻擊，第二階段的武器透過雙腳與觸手，最終階段則是伸出巨大手掌襲擊。需要運用所有技巧來擊敗這個強大的BOSS。除了單人模式，還提供多人對戰功能，可以與朋友進行本地對戰，或者通過網路連線與其他玩家進行對戰。這讓《龍之子 VS. CAPCOM》成為既適合單人挑戰，也適合聚會與朋友一起玩的遊戲。

在推出後受到廣泛好評。評論家讚賞整體的操作簡潔易懂，卻保留足夠的深度，使其對不同年齡層的玩家都有吸引力。視覺效果華麗，特別是必殺技和連攜技展示極具震撼力的動畫效果，給人強烈的視覺衝擊。知名角色如隆、春麗、Dash(《洛克人X》系列）深受玩家喜愛，而龍之子的角色則帶有強烈的懷舊感，尤其對於成長於日本動畫年代的玩家來說，能夠操作《科學小飛俠》中的英雄與CAPCOM角色對戰是非常難得的體驗。然而，也有一些批評指出，眾多角色在日本以外的地區知名度不高。雖然CAPCOM的作品在全球市場都很受歡迎，但龍之子的一些卡通人物在西方市場的較不為人知，這可能削弱某些地區玩家的興趣。儘管如此，強大戰鬥系統和簡單操作還是足以吸引大量的格鬥遊戲愛好者。

總結來說，這是Wii平台發行的創意且充滿樂趣格鬥遊戲，結合懷舊的動畫角色與CAPCOM經典遊戲角色。無論是喜愛格鬥遊戲的玩家，還是希望體驗獨特跨界對戰的動畫迷，遊戲創造出良好的體驗，並且在市場上獲得極高的評價。

Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Cross Generation of Heroes is a fighting game developed by Capcom and released in 2008 for the Nintendo Wii. Part of the famous "VS. Series," it blends characters from the renowned Japanese animation studio Tatsunoko with classic characters from Capcom’s iconic games, offering players a unique crossover fighting experience. Featuring a diverse roster, fast-paced combat, and dazzling visuals, it became one of the most popular fighting games on the Wii at the time.

Due to Tatsunoko’s overseas licensing issues, the game was initially only released in Japan. However, to cater to the international market, a revised version titled Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars was released in 2010, adding new characters and game modes.

The game uses a 2D fighting format. Capcom had already introduced several similar crossover games, such as the Marvel vs. Capcom series, combining American comic book heroes with Capcom game characters. In Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, however, the focus shifted to Japanese animation, featuring characters from Tatsunoko’s well-known shows, including Ken the Eagle from Science Ninja Team Gatchaman and Casshern from Neo-Human Casshern.

There are nearly 20 characters and mini-games, with a tag-team battle system similar to that of Tekken Tournament or The King of Fighters. Players can switch characters when one is close to being defeated, using the swap as an opportunity to attack the opponent. Gold Lightan, one of the largest characters in the game, has the widest attack range but cannot form a team and has slow movement, making his defense weak.

In this game, Capcom and Tatsunoko characters gather to participate in a cross-dimensional fighting competition. Each character has their own backstory. The controls are simple and smooth, making it an ideal fit for the Wii platform. Traditional complex commands were simplified so players could easily pick up the game. Characters have a range of attacks, including light, medium, and heavy, and can unleash spectacular special moves and combos by using straightforward button combinations, maximizing combat effectiveness. Each character also possesses unique abilities, adding strategy and dynamism to the fights.

Players can use a traditional Wii Remote, Wii Classic Controller, or even an arcade stick to control the game, allowing different player styles to find their preferred setup. Whether casual players who enjoy simple controls or fighting game enthusiasts who strive for precision, everyone can find enjoyment in the combat.

In the game, players choose two characters to form a team and participate in a series of matches, facing increasingly tougher opponents. Each match has a 99-second time limit, and when both of the opponent’s characters are defeated, players advance to the next round, continuing until they face the final boss.

The final boss is Yami, the Emperor of Eternal Darkness from Capcom’s renowned game Ōkami. He is a gigantic monster with three phases and powerful attacks. In the first phase, he charges at the player; in the second, he uses weapons with his legs and tentacles; and in the final phase, he attacks with massive hands. Players must use all their skills to defeat this formidable boss.

In addition to single-player mode, the game also offers multiplayer options, allowing players to battle friends locally or connect online to face other players. This feature made Tatsunoko vs. Capcom a game that could be enjoyed both solo and in social settings.

Upon release, the game received widespread acclaim. Critics praised the intuitive controls, which retained enough depth to appeal to players of all ages. The visual effects were stunning, with special moves and combos delivering impressive and impactful animations, leaving players in awe.

Well-known Capcom characters like Ryu, Chun-Li, and Zero from the Mega Man X series were fan favorites, while Tatsunoko characters brought a strong sense of nostalgia. For players who grew up during the golden age of Japanese animation, being able to control heroes from Science Ninja Team Gatchaman and battle against Capcom’s roster was a rare and exciting experience.

However, there were some criticisms. Many of the Tatsunoko characters were not well-known outside Japan. While Capcom’s characters are globally popular, some of Tatsunoko’s cartoon characters had limited recognition in Western markets, which may have dampened interest for some players. Nevertheless, the strong combat system and simple controls were enough to attract a large following of fighting game enthusiasts.

In summary, Tatsunoko vs. Capcom is a creative and enjoyable fighting game released for the Wii. It combines nostalgic anime characters with Capcom’s iconic game characters, offering a unique crossover experience. Whether you’re a fan of fighting games or an anime enthusiast looking for a fresh crossover battle, this game delivers a satisfying experience and earned high praise in the market.
