+ | '''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' (エックスメンVS.ストリートファイター) is a versus fighting game developed by [[Capcom]] and was released for the [[Sega Saturn]] in 1997. It is the first fighting game crossover to be released by Capcom, combining characters from [[Marvel]]'s ''[[:Category:X-Men (franchise)|X-Men]]'' comics with characters from Capcom's own ''[[:Category:Street Fighter|Street Fighter]]'' series. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ''X-Men vs. Street Fighter'' debuted with the 4MB [[Extended RAM Cartridge]] in Japan and requires the cartridge to run. Likely as a result of this, the Saturn version of the game was only released in Japan, although for much of 1998, North American{{fileref|E31997 Capcom Leaflet.pdf|page=24}} and European releases were planned. | ||

+ | ==Story== | ||
+ | {{ScreenThumb|X-Men vs Street Fighter, Introduction.png|width=200|Introduction}} | ||
+ | An evil mutant, believing in the survival of the fittest, wants to kill off the weak and force humanity to evolve stronger. As he considers himself the end of modern man, he calls himself Apocalypse. It is up to Earth's greatest heroes to stop him from annihilating humanity. | ||

+ | ''X-Men vs. Street Fighter'' is a 2D fighting game featuring gameplay similar to the ''Street Fighter'' games, but it incorporates dual-character selection and tag team-based combat. Each player selects two characters to compete in two-on-two battles. Instead of the typical best of three round format, matches consist of a single round. Players control one character at a time, while the other awaits off-screen. The starting character can tag in the off-screen character at any time during the fight. Characters have separate vitality bars, and the dormant character slowly recovers the red portion of their vitality bar while the other character is fighting. If one character loses all of their vitality, then the tag partner automatically replaces them in play. The match continues until both characters on either team are defeated. If the timer runs out before either team is knocked out, then the player with the most combined remaining health is declared the winner. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The game borrows numerous gameplay conventions from Capcom's previous [[Marvel]]-licensed ventures, ''[[X-Men: Children of the Atom]]'' and ''[[Marvel Super Heroes]]'', such as the Super Jump, the ability to jump higher than normal, and Aerial Rave, the ability to perform combos on the opponent while in the air. The ''Street Fighter'' characters were given exaggerated versions of their special moves to match the larger-than-life presentation of the ''X-Men'' superheroes and supervillains. For example, Ryu has a much larger fireball, which he can now throw in midair. ''X-Men vs. Street Fighter'' also includes a meter system similar to the two aforementioned games called the Hyper Combo gauge. As characters perform moves and receive damage, the Hyper Combo gauges gradually fill. Players can expend their meter to perform various special techniques, such as the Hyper Combo, a special move that unleashes high amounts of damage; Crossover Combination, where both characters use their Hyper Combos simultaneously; and Crossover Counter, which transforms a defensive block into an offensive counterattack by tagging in the off-screen character. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Characters move with {{left}} and {{right}} and dash with {{left}} {{left}} and {{right}} {{right}} (or {{X}}+{{Y}}+{{Z}} or {{L}}). They jump upward with {{up}} and jump behind and ahead with {{upleft}} and {{upright}}. Characters can Super Jump high into the air with {{down}} {{up}} (or {{A}}+{{B}}+{{C}} or {{R}}). They crouch with {{down}}. Punches are done with {{X}} (light), {{Y}} (medium), and {{Z}} (strong) and kicks are done with {{A}} (light), {{B}} (medium), and {{C}} (strong). Light attacks are faster and hard attacks deal more damage. Special moves for each character are done by pairing specific directional combinations with an attack button. Blocking is done by holding the D-Pad away from the opponent, which can also be done in the air. While blocking, characters can repel the attacker by pushing all three punch buttons simultaneously. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Throws and grabs are done by holding {{left}} or {{right}} when next to an opponent and pressing a medium or hard punch or kick button. Characters can perform throws in the air as well. Throws cannot be blocked, but characters can land safely out of a throw by pressing the same motion as a throw, which greatly reduces the damage taken. It is also possible to roll on the ground after falling from a throw or other attack by pressing {{QCB}} {{punch}} (or {{QCF}} {{punch}} if facing left). | ||
+ | |||
+ | At any time during the match, the current character can tag their partner into the match by pressing the strong punch and strong kick buttons simultaneously ({{C}}+{{Z}}). The partner jumps into battle with an aerial attack, then does a taunt (during which they are vulnerable to attack). | ||
+ | |||
+ | Characters share a Hyper Combo gauge with three levels. When the gauge is at level 1 or higher, a character can perform a Hyper Combo with a special button combination (typically a directional motion with two punch or kick buttons). These moves do high damage if they successfully connect with an opponent (and often do additional damage if the player presses the attack buttons rapidly while they are being performed). This costs one level of the gauge. If the gauge is at level 2 or higher and neither team member has been defeated, the player can perform a Crossover Combination, where both characters perform a Hyper Combo simultaneously, by pressing {{QCF}} (or {{QCB}} if facing left), then the strong punch and strong kick buttons simultaneously ({{C}}+{{Z}}). This switches the characters and costs two levels of the gauge. Finally, players can perform a special counterattacking technique called a Crossover Counter after blocking an opponent's attack with {{QCBD}} {{punch}} (or {{QCFD}} {{punch}} if facing left), which summons the other team member to jump in and attack the opponent. This switches the characters and costs one level of the gauge. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===Modes=== | ||
+ | In Arcade Mode, the player fights several computer-controlled teams before competing in a final battle against the boss character, Apocalypse, an antagonist from the ''X-Men'' series. After defeating Apocalypse, the two partners fight each other (with the player controlling one and the computer controlling the other) in a final one-on-one fight. There are eight different difficulty levels for computer-controlled opponents. | ||
+ | |||
+ | In Versus Mode, two players can fight against each other, with the ability to choose handicaps and the stage. The game saves records such as high scores and wins/losses to the console's internal memory. | ||
+ | |||
+ | After selecting a character, the player can choose between Normal or Auto mode and Normal or Turbo game speed. Auto mode enables automatic blocking. Turbo speed is only available when using manual blocking. | ||

+ | ==History== | ||
+ | ===Release=== | ||
+ | The Saturn version of this game was extremely close to getting a European release, being given a price of £49.99 and being packaged with a 4MB [[Extended RAM Cartridge]]. It was meant to arrive in March, but Capcom and Sega pulled the plug at the last minute. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===Legacy=== | ||
+ | ''X-Men vs. Street Fighter'' proved to be a success for Capcom, and would lead to numerous other crossovers, starting with ''[[Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter]]''. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==Versions== | ||
+ | The [[Sega Saturn]] port of ''X-Men vs. Street Fighter'' was the first and to this day most accurate home conversion of the game, with a rival [[PlayStation]] release arriving a year later. Unlike ''X-Men: Children of the Atom'', where the differences are relatively minor, the PlayStation of version of ''X-Men vs. Street Fighter'' strips out major features such as tag-team battles, changing the one-round two-on-two battles to a more conventional best of three round setup. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Most notably, the PlayStation version makes significant graphical cutbacks across all elements of the game. Many frames of character and background animation were removed, with characters such as Magneto having almost entirely different (and more rigid) idle poses to compensate for the limited hardware. Even when animation is not a feature, the PlayStation often uses less detailed assets, and runs with a lower screen resolution at all times. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Saturn conversion is able to achieve closer parity with the arcade version through its use of the 4MB Extended RAM Cartridge, which is required for the game to run. A side effect of this approach also means that loading times are shorter than on the PlayStation (though still longer than in the arcades, where there is no disc to access), with fights on Saturn hardware taking about one second to load versus the PlayStation's ten seconds.{{ref|1=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/_2C-jpMQmFY|2=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2C-jpMQmFY}} | ||
+ | |||
+ | The 4MB Extended RAM Cartridge also means the X-Men characters have more frames of animation than their counterparts in the Saturn version of ''X-Men: Children of the Atom''. | ||

X-Men vs. Street Fighter (エックスメンVS.ストリートファイター) is a versus fighting game developed by Capcom and was released for the Sega Saturn in 1997. It is the first fighting game crossover to be released by Capcom, combining characters from Marvel's X-Men comics with characters from Capcom's own Street Fighter series.
X-Men vs. Street Fighter debuted with the 4MB Extended RAM Cartridge in Japan and requires the cartridge to run. Likely as a result of this, the Saturn version of the game was only released in Japan, although for much of 1998, North American[4] and European releases were planned.
Contents
Story
An evil mutant, believing in the survival of the fittest, wants to kill off the weak and force humanity to evolve stronger. As he considers himself the end of modern man, he calls himself Apocalypse. It is up to Earth's greatest heroes to stop him from annihilating humanity.
Gameplay
X-Men vs. Street Fighter is a 2D fighting game featuring gameplay similar to the Street Fighter games, but it incorporates dual-character selection and tag team-based combat. Each player selects two characters to compete in two-on-two battles. Instead of the typical best of three round format, matches consist of a single round. Players control one character at a time, while the other awaits off-screen. The starting character can tag in the off-screen character at any time during the fight. Characters have separate vitality bars, and the dormant character slowly recovers the red portion of their vitality bar while the other character is fighting. If one character loses all of their vitality, then the tag partner automatically replaces them in play. The match continues until both characters on either team are defeated. If the timer runs out before either team is knocked out, then the player with the most combined remaining health is declared the winner.
The game borrows numerous gameplay conventions from Capcom's previous Marvel-licensed ventures, X-Men: Children of the Atom and Marvel Super Heroes, such as the Super Jump, the ability to jump higher than normal, and Aerial Rave, the ability to perform combos on the opponent while in the air. The Street Fighter characters were given exaggerated versions of their special moves to match the larger-than-life presentation of the X-Men superheroes and supervillains. For example, Ryu has a much larger fireball, which he can now throw in midair. X-Men vs. Street Fighter also includes a meter system similar to the two aforementioned games called the Hyper Combo gauge. As characters perform moves and receive damage, the Hyper Combo gauges gradually fill. Players can expend their meter to perform various special techniques, such as the Hyper Combo, a special move that unleashes high amounts of damage; Crossover Combination, where both characters use their Hyper Combos simultaneously; and Crossover Counter, which transforms a defensive block into an offensive counterattack by tagging in the off-screen character.
Characters move with and and dash with and (or ++ or ). They jump upward with and jump behind and ahead with and . Characters can Super Jump high into the air with (or ++ or ). They crouch with . Punches are done with (light), (medium), and (strong) and kicks are done with (light), (medium), and (strong). Light attacks are faster and hard attacks deal more damage. Special moves for each character are done by pairing specific directional combinations with an attack button. Blocking is done by holding the D-Pad away from the opponent, which can also be done in the air. While blocking, characters can repel the attacker by pushing all three punch buttons simultaneously.
Throws and grabs are done by holding or when next to an opponent and pressing a medium or hard punch or kick button. Characters can perform throws in the air as well. Throws cannot be blocked, but characters can land safely out of a throw by pressing the same motion as a throw, which greatly reduces the damage taken. It is also possible to roll on the ground after falling from a throw or other attack by pressing P (or P if facing left).
At any time during the match, the current character can tag their partner into the match by pressing the strong punch and strong kick buttons simultaneously (+). The partner jumps into battle with an aerial attack, then does a taunt (during which they are vulnerable to attack).
Characters share a Hyper Combo gauge with three levels. When the gauge is at level 1 or higher, a character can perform a Hyper Combo with a special button combination (typically a directional motion with two punch or kick buttons). These moves do high damage if they successfully connect with an opponent (and often do additional damage if the player presses the attack buttons rapidly while they are being performed). This costs one level of the gauge. If the gauge is at level 2 or higher and neither team member has been defeated, the player can perform a Crossover Combination, where both characters perform a Hyper Combo simultaneously, by pressing (or if facing left), then the strong punch and strong kick buttons simultaneously (+). This switches the characters and costs two levels of the gauge. Finally, players can perform a special counterattacking technique called a Crossover Counter after blocking an opponent's attack with P (or P if facing left), which summons the other team member to jump in and attack the opponent. This switches the characters and costs one level of the gauge.
Modes
In Arcade Mode, the player fights several computer-controlled teams before competing in a final battle against the boss character, Apocalypse, an antagonist from the X-Men series. After defeating Apocalypse, the two partners fight each other (with the player controlling one and the computer controlling the other) in a final one-on-one fight. There are eight different difficulty levels for computer-controlled opponents.
In Versus Mode, two players can fight against each other, with the ability to choose handicaps and the stage. The game saves records such as high scores and wins/losses to the console's internal memory.
After selecting a character, the player can choose between Normal or Auto mode and Normal or Turbo game speed. Auto mode enables automatic blocking. Turbo speed is only available when using manual blocking.

History
Release
The Saturn version of this game was extremely close to getting a European release, being given a price of £49.99 and being packaged with a 4MB Extended RAM Cartridge. It was meant to arrive in March, but Capcom and Sega pulled the plug at the last minute.
Legacy
X-Men vs. Street Fighter proved to be a success for Capcom, and would lead to numerous other crossovers, starting with Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter.
Versions
The Sega Saturn port of X-Men vs. Street Fighter was the first and to this day most accurate home conversion of the game, with a rival PlayStation release arriving a year later. Unlike X-Men: Children of the Atom, where the differences are relatively minor, the PlayStation of version of X-Men vs. Street Fighter strips out major features such as tag-team battles, changing the one-round two-on-two battles to a more conventional best of three round setup.
Most notably, the PlayStation version makes significant graphical cutbacks across all elements of the game. Many frames of character and background animation were removed, with characters such as Magneto having almost entirely different (and more rigid) idle poses to compensate for the limited hardware. Even when animation is not a feature, the PlayStation often uses less detailed assets, and runs with a lower screen resolution at all times.
The Saturn conversion is able to achieve closer parity with the arcade version through its use of the 4MB Extended RAM Cartridge, which is required for the game to run. A side effect of this approach also means that loading times are shorter than on the PlayStation (though still longer than in the arcades, where there is no disc to access), with fights on Saturn hardware taking about one second to load versus the PlayStation's ten seconds.[5]
The 4MB Extended RAM Cartridge also means the X-Men characters have more frames of animation than their counterparts in the Saturn version of X-Men: Children of the Atom.
