I never had a Dreamcast, but this was always the game mentioned in the same breath as Smash Melee back then when we were all getting competitive. These days, I'm a Skullgirls player, and MvC2 is a huge influence on it. The Fightcade implementation has issues, but even if the main player base ends up there for online play, it will be nice to learn the game with a better training mode and to boot it up without emulator jank. It's worth noting that cross play comes with its own downsides.

yup! haven't played mvc2 since the 360 days. excited to finally have it forever on steam!
Finally! The return of MvC2. I bought MvC3 when it came out and I was so disappointed. Not because of the smaller roster but because they reduced pretty much every player to the exact same move set. So it didn’t matter who you chose, it was always the same.
Think they probably over-balanced the game into a state of utter blandness.
Yeah mvc2 had some busted characters but they all had personality at least
Yep I'm in for this one
I already have M vs C 2 for my Dreamcast (both Japanese and US versions) and I bought the 1up cabinet with almost all the games in this collection on it.
But I'm still in for this collection to have a much easier way to play these games whenever I want. These bring back VERY fond memories of my arcade days.
