[[Capcom/Awesome Music|It's]] ''[[Capcom/Awesome Music|Capcom]]'', [[Capcom/Awesome Music|people]]. [[Capcom vs. Whatever|Everyone's gonna benefit from pairing up with them]], [[All Blue Entry|although it's not like]] [[Marvel]], [[SNK]], [[Namco Bandai]], [[All Blue Entry|and]] [[Tatsunoko Productions]] [[Awesome Music (Sugar Wiki)|exactly needed the help]].
== [[Marvel vs. Capcom]] ==
* Let's start this by mentioning that the [http://youtu.be/AHwsX8slnt0 Character Select music] in ''MVC3'' (plus its [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGu_gU20ZVQ orchestral version]) will ''pump you the fuck up.'' Even ''it'' seems overjoyed that the third game has finally come out.
* The first ''MvC'' and its successor ''[[
* Courtesy of ''[[Mega Man 2]]'', ''Marvel vs. Capcom'' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9wK64yJqVk presents the Blue Bomber himself.]
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8l0AlmlFLAI Cammy's] wonderful theme in ''X-Men vs. Street Fighter''.
Line 12 ⟶ 11:
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kp3m3xS6qDA Zero's remix] of his ''[[Mega Man X]] 2'' theme.
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PLS2lKjyL8Y On the Blackbird,] Storm's theme in ''X-Men: Children of the Atom''.
** Storm's ''Marvel vs. Capcom 3'' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udf3VN31mQM theme] is also great.
*** Which is a remix of her ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aihFT-j0PkM X-Men vs. Street Fighter]'' theme.
* [[Captain America (comics)]]'s [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IcRwMlSlD4I& theme] in ''Marvel vs. Capcom'', and its [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCiifu6dV2s remix] in ''3''.
** And lest we forget, the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcL_SPkVr30& original] from ''Marvel Super Heroes'' and the ''Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter'' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUv1ELA7XTI version.]
* [[Spider-Man|Spidey's]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9UNRaqMBmg& theme]. ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rbqHHjjNIY Every]'' ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DbUah3qC4c4& single]'' ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aKKFjNVZkHU rearrangement.]''
Line 30 ⟶ 29:
* Albert Wesker takes "Winds of Madness", his incredible ''[[Resident Evil 5]]'' theme, makes it [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBJzrkFUot0 rock out loud,] and proceeds to '''[[Memetic Mutation|SATURATE]]''' ''MvC3'' with his awesomeness.
* While it could originally be considered [[The Scrappy]], the length of time between the release of ''MvC2'' and ''MvC3'' has finally brought [[Ear Worm|"(I Wanna) Take You For a Ride"]] (the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPjjnfGKrPc character select theme] from ''MvC2'') to this level. [[And the Fandom Rejoiced|More than a few fans screamed in joy]] when it was heard being played at the end of the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HFLoRn4c3o#t=2m01s Tokyo Game Show trailer] for ''MvC3''.
** ''Marvel vs. Capcom 3'' has several remixes of "I Wanna Take You For A Ride", [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrq8_C0JrN4 even a rock remix.]
* Do you want to know why the Dread Dormammu is even more powerful in the Dark Dimension? Obviously, it's because he's enchanted it to play [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6mDxjG49K8 this] [[Theme Music Power-Up|at all times.]]
* Amaterasu brings [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CoaTNWnqiok a remixed version] of the godly "The Sun Rises" to accompany her godly ass-kicking. You know a song is awesome when it's a CMOA in '''[[Okami|three]] [[
* Chun-Li's [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BuqBGECE5jA theme] from ''MvC1''.
* The [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=weeAuKmzdys& Juggernaut's theme], [[My Way Entertainment|bitch!]]
Line 41 ⟶ 40:
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Nl1BzuWFlI Shuma-Gorath's epic theme!]
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiZxbczyf6I& Here's] his theme in ''MSHvSF''. And then, ''MvC3'' decides to take his theme and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQe2GjaGt9M make it rock the f*** out.]
* [[Ghosts 'n Goblins
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8T0ixdsCqK4 Chris Redfield's theme].
* [[Hulking Out|RAAAAAAGGH!]] [[Hulk Speak|Everyone forget Hulk's theme!]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FljmBUo7Szg Hulk's theme SMASH all other puny themes in game!]
** The ''MvC'' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8i1bs-8wHBU& rendition] of the above theme. It's not quite as adrenaline-packed, but still good nonetheless. Also, his themes in ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yar_uKhi7g4 Marvel Super Heroes]'' and ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0iTFLAHG-JY& MSHvSF.]''
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKdxCFxKkYM SWEET GAMMA-POWERED RAVE PARTY!] ... Wait, that sounds kinda dangerous.
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JMc13A8LqaA M.O.D.O.K.'s theme.] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UleFJUi4gc4 It fits particularly well with trolling sprees.]
Line 50 ⟶ 49:
* How much of Spencer's theme is <s>bionic</s> awesome? '''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IuU71lZXWWQ All of it.]'''
* Morrigan's [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AN3v6y808Uw theme] in the original ''Marvel vs. Capcom'' sounds like it'd be the perfect fit for some kind of lighthearted rave in the underworld.
** And then we have [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJ_i2D4f_Xg her theme] in ''MvC3'', based off of her ''Night Warriors'' theme (also, see the ''Tatsunoko vs. Capcom'' section). It's quite mystifying.
* While ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mSqrz-Y6uug XvSF]'' and ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dsGJ92Pb92M MvC]'' did the obligatory spin on the '''RED CYCLONE''', Zangief himself, it is his ''MSHvSF'' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3BBRVyeZu5A theme] that truly shines.
* Speaking of Russians, here is [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgDB2d71jEI Colossus' theme] from ''X-Men: Children of the Atom''.
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tx5RXOdV4zk Moon Light,] Psylocke's theme in ''X-Men: Children of the Atom''. Her theme in ''Marvel Super Heroes'' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1kCC-5qfiU qualifies, too.]
* '''[[Memetic Mutation|BEHOLD!!]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kmscc0xqw2U& OPTIC] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dRHspVcPI0U BLAST!!!]''' Dreams don't die, huh? [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n4GxMDssY2g Got that right,] Cyclops.
Line 58 ⟶ 57:
* Since ''Marvel vs. Capcom'' was more diverse on the Capcom side than being just being Street Fighters, they gave Ryu, the main representative of ''[[Street Fighter]]'' series in the game, the ''[[Street Fighter II]]'' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Httbt4YW298 main theme itself.]
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9McLA8ZGUTE M. Bison's theme] from ''Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter''. Just makes you wanna yell out [[Memetic Mutation|"YES! YES!"]]
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJ8siEfk4QY Thor's theme,] fitting for a god of Asgard.
* C. Viper's ''MvC3'' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-REcg58JaU theme] which is a remix of her ''[[Street Fighter IV]]'' theme.
* Mayor Mike Haggar [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lqE-5y_q1dk Turned Da Beat Back!]
* Taskmaster's theme will remind you of who is the asskickee, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHZWZ7RzE-U and who is the asskicker.]
* This remix of Akuma's iconic theme is... [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NrvlNp7i2Yk just listen!]
** And it was just as awesome [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDK895sZ1p8 back in '96.] Oh, and here's his ''MSHvSF'' theme [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIIH15DcscM for good measure.]
* Sentinel's ''Marvel vs. Capcom 3'' theme is [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YxD0dWMbO5I epic!]
** Just like it was [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98VJxvIa9Wo& 17 years ago.]
Line 75 ⟶ 74:
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZgIxpqiYxU Hsien-Ko's theme.]
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XU6MRLGXp4 Phoenix's theme.]
* The [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XC6HdBggjRc Victory/Outcome/Results theme] from ''3''. You'll want it to play any time you win anything.
* With ''Ultimate MvC3'' on the way, there's some new themes to go with the newcomers.
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jq8DI-4TRU8 Firebrand/Red Arremer's theme,] a bitchin' metal remix of the ''[[
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xvxu4kWGZ8 Strider Hiryu's theme,] a triumphant reprise of his ''MvC1'' theme (and by proxy, Stage 1 of his original game).
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rf26gphwadk Ghost Rider's theme,] almost the polar opposite of Dormammu's.
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H78usyu1Y8w Hawkeye's theme,] a funky, catchy beat that compliments his personality well.
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5joSpUeIw8 Doctor Strange's theme,] which has a ''very'' appropriate mystical, otherworldly feel to it.
Line 85 ⟶ 84:
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P6Sy6thXuvM Vergil's theme] is an awesome, yet slightly melancholy, symphonic rock remix of his second boss battle theme from ''Devil May Cry 3''. Seeing as it was technically the only time Dante and Vergil were on even ground, this is perfect.
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L896jWqOO8w Iron Fist's theme,] which mixes Chinese instruments, pop, and rock together in a glorious fashion.
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIJG5nrzLQk Nova's theme] takes spacefaring theme elements, like a sweeping chorus, synthesizer sounds, and sweet guitar riffs, and puts them together in one incredible, high-energy piece.
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lbv5AJDh9o8 Phoenix Wright's theme,] a remix of "Objection - 2001" from the first ''[[Ace Attorney]]'' game.
*** Until you go into [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IP9PoBlFDp4 Turnabout Mode,] where Wright's more iconic theme "Pursuit - Cornered" starts playing in a fashion that would make [[
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Utt5XIHwbqA Frank West's theme], a remix of [[Bootstrapped Leitmotif|Adam the Clown's theme]] is very catchy and surprisingly fitting.
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3Z56kbrogE&feature=related Rocket Raccoon's theme] is a heroic sounding tune that'll no doubt get one pumped up in battle.
* You thought vanilla MvC3's character select themes pumped you up? Their Ultimate versions will get you even more psyched. The [http://youtu.be/DUkXXjnb-4k classic version] adds an electric guitar into the mix. The [http://youtu.be/708m4lA4ORA dynamic version]? It adds a freaking chorus.
== [[SNK vs. Capcom|Capcom vs. SNK]] ==
Line 101 ⟶ 100:
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40iIEc0HzhU True Spirit] is a very somber and atmospheric piece. It really sets the mood for big battles against guys like Bison, Geese, Akuma, and Rugal.
== [[
* When you face {{spoiler|[[Okami|Yami]]}}'s [[Sequential Boss|final form]] in either ''CGoH'' or ''UAS'', he brings his world's [[Awesome Music (Sugar Wiki)|Crowning Music of Awesome]], {{spoiler|1=[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5Vj1pdZaO8&fmt=18 "The Sun Rises!"]}}, with him.
* ''Cross Generation of Heroes'' is chockful of it simply because every [[Anime Theme Song]] for the [[Tatsunoko Production]] characters and each Capcom character's respective Crowning Music of Awesome is mashed together into one game. The reworkings of some of those themes makes these even more awesome than their original counterparts:
Line 119 ⟶ 118:
** And in what might perhaps be the biggest [[Ear Worm]] of all... [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63wcuV9d-ms Roll.]
*** And here is the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1p3B_O2VP14 English version.]
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgA-2EPG2uA Hakushon Daimaou's theme] is a bigger [[Ear Worm]].
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZhWzxlvZdI Yatterman-1]
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6wCbqu7r40 Casshan]
Line 126 ⟶ 125:
* Even with licensing issues preventing the themes from being used in ''Ultimate All Stars'', there's still great music:
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICI04P6I5t8 Wasteland]
*** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V8lVGfEUKeY Even better when] [[Incendiary Exponent|on fire!]]
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1qFREvDGeg Les Vagas]
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Bit9KwXwUE Daigo Temple (Moonlight)]
Line 143 ⟶ 142:
* And speaking of ''Tekken'', King II (alongside [[Darkstalkers|Felicia]] and {{spoiler|Armor King I}}) gets [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VeTEiOOc22M an expansive rearrangement] of the opening to ''Tekken 3''.
* [[Bootstrapped Theme|Once again]], MegaMan Volnutt and Tron Bonne use [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDxPbCDDTLk Flutter vs. Gesellschaft] as their battle theme, from [[Mega Man Legends|their home series]].
* Arthur has [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJvRWqFDwNM his theme from] ''[[Ghosts 'n Goblins
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fkG85ZSODTI Morrigan's] ''Darkstalkers'' theme, remixed.
* The cast of ''[[Final Fight]]'' (Haggar and Guy, along with [[Captain Commando|Sho/Ginzu]]) receive [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-ZzurdFCIU this rocking remix] of the Bay Area from the original game.
Line 149 ⟶ 148:
* Stage 1 of ''[[Strider Hiryu|Strider]]'' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85KPBONLHFo has never sounded so grand.]
* Kagekiyo from ''The Genji And The Heike Clans'' proves two things:
{{quote|
'''2)''' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v{{=}}0HEeUhnlNz4 Combining a guitar, shamisen, and flute is hella cool.] }}
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHFX19o5Kfc Brave Sword, Braver Soul,] from ''[[Soul Series|Soulcalibur II]]'', accompanies Mitsurugi and Taki ontp the battlefield.
* [[The Tower of Druaga|Gilgamesh and Princess Ki's]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZ9i7nDHTKA theme,] taken from ''The Return of Ishtar''.
* Didja know that this game made Taizo Hori (and ''[[Dig Dug]]'' in general) [[Adaptational Badass|infinitely more]] '''[[Rated "M" for Manly|MANLY]]'''? [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9oDzu0y7Y8 It did.]
* Taizo's ex-wife Toby Masuyo (of ''Baraduke'') teams up with ''Burning Force'''s Hiromi Tengenji [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=utnY2aEthjA to bring you this hotness.] Awesome must run in the (extended) family.
* KOS-MOS, Shion, and MOMO bring the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_afqqoJscc main battle theme] of ''[[Xenosaga]]: Episode 1'' with them.
Line 188 ⟶ 187:
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EyGVaRxZQUA Urban war zone] is quite iconic thanks to the reveals of the Playstation-exclusive characters (Mega Man, Pac-Man, Toro, Kuro, Cole). It's got electric synth sounds mixed in with some sweet guitar playing and it makes you want to say "This is my destiny!".
