Sega All Star Fighting Game?

With the success of Sonic and Sega All Star Racing and the upcoming release of the sequel how would you fighting game fans feel about a Sega All Star Fighting game? I had an idea for a 2D style fighting game similar to Street Fighter X Tekken and maybe with these characters.

Sonic
Tails
Knuckles
Shadow
Ristar
Joe Musashi
Death Adder
Adam Hunter
Axel Stone
Blaze Fielding
Shiva
Akira Yuki
Jacky Bryant
Alex Kidd

There's also possible characters from games such as Virtua On, Bayonetta, Phantasy Star, Hell Yeah etc

What do you guys think?

 

I see you have listed Streets of Rage wich is a must have.
VF chars are mandatory. Bayonetta might be a smart choice since she is easy to recognize for newer audiences. That gunslinger chick from Resonance of Fate would fit in well too. I'd also like some characters from:
Skies of Arcadia (Ramirez, Vyse etc.)
Valkyria Chronicles (one of the valkyries maybe)
Shenmue
Phantasy Star
Jet Set Radio
and that Cat from ChuChu Rocket

To be honest I could do without any Sonic characters, but they would be stupid to exclude from a marketing perspective. If this happens, include Amy please.

 

If I'm honest I wouldn't care much for sonic and pals either but like you said it would help to sell the game to a wider audience.

 

They should dig deeper into their catalog past Megadrive...How about the girl from Yu Suzuki's first game GIRLS GARDEN?

And maybe even a hidden character: the car from TURBO!

Not to mention Pengo, Space Harrier, the Outrun car inhabitants (they could be akin to Ice Climbers on SSB), the Hang-On driver, the monkey from Congo Bongo, etc...they have a long and colorful history in games, it'd be a shame to stick with recent ones when they could have possibility to resurrect old properties if it was successful, like Nintendo has done with it's SSB and Warioware series'.

 

I second making it like Fighters Megamix. The thought of having it become anything like smash just seems...bleh. Jazz from JSRF must be playable. I can't explain why I fell in love with her but once she was unlocked I ignored everyone else. ^^;

 

This idea sounds like Fighters Megamix "Crazy Awesome" Edition.

I approve. And the fact that you added Streets of Rage characters is just beautiful. Blaze Fielding would own...

I'd also be happy if there were a way to put Ecco the Dolphin in there. Yea...I said it. A freakin' dolphin....

 

Totally forgot about Ecco...good call!

 

Now lets all ponder how Ecco would fight. I see the throws being nothing short of amazing.

 

I imagine he'd have some moves that allow him to do those awesome somersaults as special attacks. He might even be handled like Dr. Boskonovich on Tekken 3 for PS1, kinda flopping around and only low attacks can hit him, but then he flops and whips his tail for attacks. I think his throw would be like swimming around in mid air around the opponent and then finally dipping between the opponent's legs and using his blowhole to toss him away with mad dolphin power!

 

Hopefully not as stiff as Dr.B. Once I unlocked him I instantly asked myself "Why did I bother?" And I could see Ecco having a triple somersault kick like Guile/Charlie/Remy/Ash/Later versions of Robert

 

Ecco would have an unblockable sonar attack

 

I'd like to see an attack where he calls in his buddies and they all beat the opponent to death with their flippers while Ecco does back-flips in the background as the crowd throws fish at him...

Just sayin'...

 

Pretty awesome list so far! I love me some Streets of Rage
1) All the characters from Gunstar Heroes as well...
2) Also, Hotsuma from the remake Shinobi game for the PS2. What I wouldn't give to do stealth dashes around everyone
3) Man, don't know if eternal champions was a SEGA property or not, but include those characters and I'll pre-order the limited edition
4) If they put some of Cyborg Justice in there as well, I fund the entire thing myself

@Dingo: I think that would be called a Fin-tality (I crack myself up)

 

Girl's Garden was Yuji Naka's first game, not Yu Suzuki's.

What's with all the hate for the Sonic characters? They certainly dominate the rosters of the Sumo Digital games a bit too much, but Sonic the Fighters is the most underrated fighting game this side of Last Bronx!

We'd need the AM2 Palm Tree again for sure, though, along with Siba's triumphant return to the roster.

 

Well, I guess you either do a wacky, party style project like Saturn Megamix, or SF cross Tekken, or you keep it serious and stoic like VF has largely remained over the years (let's forget about Taka customs for now). I pretty much prefer the latter, and in that vein, I would love to see the SoR, Shenmue and Bayonetta IP used further, and how about Holly from OutRun Coast 2 Coast!?

 

Some wackiness but keep the fighting serious for most of the characters.
Ecco=Wacky
Vectorman=Serious
Billy Hatcher=Wacky
Gui Zhang=Serious

Of course to keep things fair in online play you could chose modes like Serious, Wacky and Anything goes (both types playable).

Side note: I now hate the word wacky.
