According to The-Magicbox, Tatsunoko vs Capcom: Cross Generation of Heroes will be coming to Japanese Wiis on December 11, 2008. This news came before the game has even been released in arcades, giving gamers something to look forward to other than just popping in quarters at an arcade. Or more likely 100 yen coins, since the game won't see an American release for a while, if ever.

Marvel vs Capcom is the newest crossover game from Capcom, featuring characters from Tatsunoko like Casshan and Tekkaman and Capcom characters like Batsu from Rival Schools and Megaman from Megaman Legends. The game is considered a spiritual successor to the Marvel vs Capcom series, featuring the same type of fast paced, air-combo-centric gameplay and over-the-top animation styles.
