In an Arcadia Magazine interview with developer Playmore, it was confirmed that the upcoming crossover fighter SNK vs Capcom will be hitting all three major consoles as early as this summer. The news (courtesy of Gamerfeed) contradicts earlier reports that the game would initially be released only in the arcades.

Also revealed in the interview was news that Hugo, the Andre the Giant look-alike from Street Fighter 3 and Earthquake of Samurai Showdown fame would be included in the game as playable characters. This brings the current known lineup to be:

* Ken Masters
* Ryu
* Chun-li
* Kyo Kusanagi
* Iori Yagami
* Mai shiranui
* Hugo
* Earthquake

Additionally, Playmore revealed that the concept behind SNK vs Capcom would be "SSI," or Simple (simple controls), Speedy (speedy controls), and Insight (deep gameplay). The developers stated that the game would be "not a match," implying that there would be no tournament structure. How this will affect gameplay, if at all, is unknown.

We'll have more on SNK vs Capcom as it becomes available. Be sure to check the media page for a couple scans from Arcadia Magazine that show character artwork for both Hugo and Earthquake

Cool... I certainly didn't expect this game to come out on the GC... I only hope this rumor turns out to be true. Its not like many people can afford Neo-Geo carts, which for this game would be $200 to $300 or more...

Oh, in case anyone didn't know, yeah there are still games being made for the circa 1989 Neo-Geo arcade machine, even though SNK died... such as this game. :)
