=== [[Fridge Logic]] ===
* The game's subtitled "''Fate of Two Worlds''"? That would mean the Marvel and Capcom worlds, right? So... ''[[Resident Evil]]'', ''[[Street Fighter]]'', ''[[Mega Man X]]'', ''[[Devil May Cry]]'' and all of the other Capcom games all take place in the same continuity? That's... Pretty awesome, actually.
** Considering that ''Street Fighter'', ''[[Final Fight]]'', ''[[Saturday Night Slam Masters]]'', ''[[Captain Commando]]'', and possibly ''[[Rival Schools]]'' [[Shared Universe|are set in the same timeline]] and there were multi-series cameos as early back as Ken's ''[[Street Fighter Alpha]] 2'' [http://capcom.wikia.com/wiki/File:StreetFighterAlpha2-USA%28Ken%29.png stage] <ref>see [[Street Fighter/Characters|here]] for who's who</ref>, the idea isn't quite as far-fetched as one may think. There have also been [[Epileptic Trees]] in the past linking together the more supernatural series (e.g. ''[[Darkstalkers]]'', ''Devil May Cry'', ''[[Ghosts 'n Goblins
** To add to this, the first ''[[Dino Crisis]]'' features the insignia of [[Resident Evil|the Umbrella Corporation]] on boxes found in-game, while the Republic of Borginia/Borginian Republic (the setting of ''Dino Crisis'') is reused as a location in the ''[[Ace Attorney]]'' series (note that Shinji Mikami was involved in all three series, so the nods could be [[Author Appeal|intentional]]). Thus, it's safe to assume that a good number of Capcom franchises share ''some'' sort of continuity, even if a majority of those games don't bother to further explore those connections.
* Both the Marvel and Capcom universes are in danger, correct? Then why does {{spoiler|Galactus only devour one planet? Unless the two worlds merged, shouldn't the ''other'' universe still be intact?}}
Line 48:
** Taskmaster copies a lot of things off of other heroes. Including [[Wolverine|voice]] [[Steve Blum|actors]].
* In a very Meta example, Zero got in over [[Mega Man (video game)|Mega Man]]. Zero was meant to be the main character of ''[[Mega Man X]]'' (or, at least, X was designed as a red robot with long blond hair, which becomes Zero's design), but [[Executive Meddling]] reared its ugly head. And now the opposite happened. Triples as a case of [[Irony]] and [[Hilarious in Hindsight]].
* You might be wondering why Tron's post-fight [[Trash Talk]] after winning against Zero asks him where MegaMan Volnutt is. Remember ''[[
* Sentinel's recent health nerf may seem pretty odd when you consider that he's a giant robot, but [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5v2RdxYGqk take a look at the Sentinels] on the 90's ''X-Men'' cartoon, and see how easily destroyed they are. If anything, the nerf made this Sentinel even ''more'' true to form!
* Phoenix has the lowest health in the game. This means naturally that she dies. ''A lot''. Much like her comic-book counterpart (at least, that's how people see it). What makes it even better is that, if she dies when you have a full 5 meters of super, she goes into Dark Phoenix mode. Where she regenerates all her life, but still has the lowest health in the game. And will still die a lot.
