* [[Fan Nickname]]:
** "Maximum Wesker" for Phantom Dance, one of Wesker's hypers (where he starts pinballing off the walls), because it resembles Spider-Man's Maximum Spider. It doesn't help that the two characters were revealed at the same time. [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] by Deadpool in his new win-screen quote against Spider-Man in ''Ultimate''.
** Maximum Vergil - Vergil's Dimension Slash, for the same reason.
{{quote|'''Deadpool''': ''"Hey, did you know that Wesker guy stole your Maximum Spider move? You were doing that back in Marvel Super Heroes! So...Gonna go kick his ass? Can I watch?"''}}
** X-23 aka [[Moe|Moeverine]]/[[Moe|Moerine]]/Sex-23.
*** [[Rule of Three|Thanks to Spidey,]] we now have Wolverette.
** [[Deadpool|Pool]][[Shoryuken|yuken!]]
** Spencer's "'''[[Artificial Limbs|BIONIC]] [[Calling Your Attacks|AAAAAA]][[Megaton Punch|RRRMMM!]]'''" is now being labeled as the "'''BIONIC [[F-Zero|PAAWW]][[Super Smash Bros.|WWWNCH!]]'''" [[Memetic Mutation|Moves will be shown. Yes.]]
** Due to MODOK's specialization in "keep away" tactics, people have dubbed him the "Mental Organism Designed Only for [[Troll|Trolling]]" (or [[Fun with Acronyms|M.O.D.O.T.]] for short).
*** Also, a widely-used term for M.O.D.O.K.'s powering up when he hits an opponent with his Analyze Cube is "levels of understanding". This is even probably what M.O.D.O.K. himself would call it! Speaking of which, Analyze Cube is often shortened to just "Anal Cube".
** Cancelling a hyper with X-Factor and performing another hyper has been called "KFC", short for "X-Factor Cancel". Originally "XFC", [https://web.archive.org/web/20101221124914/http://shoryuken.com/f340/so-begins-mvc3-general-discussion-thread-232438/index268.html#post9453140 some posters on a forum commented on the acronym's similarity to "KFC",] and the name stuck. Strangely enough, Baroque in ''[[Tatsunoko vs. Capcom]]'' was abbreviated as "BBQ" by the majority of players. One wonders if KFC will be [[Memetic Mutation|the next Pringles]]...
** Sentinel is sometimes referred to in competitive circles as "[[50 Cent|50Sent]]."
*** The thing it uses to smash the opponent to the ground when it does an air combo is called by fans the "frying pan".
*** Sent is also referred to as Saltinel (do the math), but whether or not this is meant to be affectionately mocking or spiteful depends on who you're talking to. Its Hyper Sentinel Force hyper is called the Hyper Sodium Force by proxy.
** [[You Keep Using That Word|Deconfirmation]]: Fandom's common lingo for "Disconfirmation".
** CKC, aka Character Kill Combo: Killing one enemy from the full health bar with a single, long combo (using a hyper and/or KFC is optional). Especially easy if you're using Zero, or if the enemy's Phoenix.
** "'''[[Memetic Mutation|MAGGY!]]'''" for Magneto, courtesy of Spider-Man.
** "Doom Rocks", for Doom's Molecular Rocks special.
** Ammy, an [[In-Series Nickname]] in ''Okami'', for Amaterasu. She's also sometimes called [[I Am Not Shazam|Okami]].
** The fans and even the developers themselves call Joe's position of his hands during his Viewtiful God Hand hyper the [[Groin Attack|"Viewtiful Handjob"]].
** Chris' Combination Punches special is called "Boulder Punch", because it's believed to be [[Ascended Meme|taken straight from that meme]] ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSo-0DCWep4 it's not]).
** [[Bleach|Getsuga Tenshou]] for Zero's [[Sword Beam|Genmu Zero (Genmurei)]]. [[Johnny Yong Bosch|Three guesses why.]]
** [[BlazBlue|Fu-Rin-Ka-Zan Lite]], or Jill Install for Jill's Level 3 hyper, because they work similarly.
** Dormammu's Stalking Flare hyper combo is usually just called "Run!" because that's what Dormammu says when he unleashes it.
** One of Nemesis' punching hyper combo is called "I Ain't Even Mad" due to [[The Juggernaut|the properties of]] [[Invulnerable Attack|the attack.]]
** Finger Install for Phoenix Wright's Turnabout Mode, activated via Objection (Forward + H on the ground or Down + H in the air during Courtroom Mode), where he gets a [[Theme Music Power-Up]] like [[BlazBlue|Bang]] proper.
** Quicksilver ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uzLILbNCZDk coined by Mugetsu/Rogueyoshi]) for a [[Good Bad Bug|Good Bad Bugs]] of Dante's which mimics the [[Time Stands Still]]-warping Style of the same name he used in ''Devil May Cry 3''.
** Dark Wesker, Level 4 X-Factor: A Level 3 X-Factor Wesker with his sunglasses off. One of the changes in ''Ultimate'' was that, similarly to [[Super Smash Brothers|Lucario]], the more damage Wesker takes, he gets a damage and speed boost - the equivalent of a Level 1 X-Factor. This can also be achieved by simply using Phantom Dance / Maximum Wesker. Needless to say, the instant this happens, you have already won or lost depending on whether you're Wesker or not.
** Nick, Nicky, P-Dub (to distinguish between him and the other Phoenix in the game).
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]:
** [[Kate Higgins]] is the female announcer. The Male announcer is ''[[The Young and The Restless]]''' John Driscoll.
** [[Fred Tatasciore]] is [[Incredible Hulk|The Incredible Hulk]], a role he has played since ''[[Ultimate Avengers]]''.
** [[Steven Blum]] is [[Wolverine]], a role he's voiced since ''[[X-Men Legends]]''. He gets a second character in the form of [[Taskmaster]].
** [[Nolan North]] is [[Deadpool]], a role he's voiced since ''[[Hulk Vs|Hulk Vs.]]''
** Eric Loomis is [[Iron Man]], a role he's voiced since the ''[[Iron Man (film)|Iron Man]] 2'' [[Licensed Game|tie-in game]].
** From ''[[Wolverine and the X-Men]]'', aside of Hulk and Wolverine himself, [[Tom Kane]], [[Tara Strong]], Susan Dalian, [[Jennifer Hale]], and Jim Ward reprise their roles as Magneto, [[X-23]], [[Storm]], Jean Grey/Phoenix, and Sentinel respectively.
** By virtue of ''[[The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes]]'', aside of Hulk and Iron Man, we have Rick Wasserman, Brian Bloom, Wally Wingert, Chris Cox, Loren Lester, and Greg Ellis as [[The Mighty Thor]], [[Captain America (comics)]], [[MODOK|M.O.D.O.K.]], [[Hawkeye]], Iron Fist, and Rocket Raccoon respectively.
** Aside of Wolverine, [[Charlie Adler]] reprises his role as Super-Skrull, both by virtue of ''[[The Superhero Squad Show]]''.
** [[Paul Dobson]] reprises his role as [[Doctor Doom]], by virtue of ''[[Fantastic Four: World's Greatest Heroes]]''. He also voices Shuma-Gorath.
** Josh Keaton reprises his role as [[Spider-Man]], by virtue of ''[[The Spectacular Spider-Man]]'' and (as Ultimate Spider-Man) ''[[Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions]]''.
** María Canals Barrera ([[Justice League (animation)|Hawkgirl]], [[Wizards of Waverly Place|Theresa Russo]]) provides the voice of [[She Hulk]].
** Jonathan Adams, better known to Marvel fans as the voice of Kang in ''[[The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes]]'', voices the final boss, {{spoiler|[[Galactus]]}}.
*** Bizarrely, Adams does not reprise his role of [[Doctor Strange|Dormammu]] from the ''[[Doctor Strange]]'' animated DTDVD. Instead, that part goes to [[The Pretender|Michael]] [[Crossing Jordan|T.]] [[The Legend of Tarzan|Weiss]].
** [[Ghost Rider]] is voiced by Richard Grieco, who previously lent his voice to Ghosty back in the ''[[Fantastic Four (animation)|Fantastic Four]]'' and ''[[Incredible Hulk|The Incredible Hulk]]'' cartoons from the 90s.
** [[Troy Baker]] voices Nova.
** On the Capcom side of things, reprising their roles from ''[[Street Fighter IV]]'' are Ryu ([[Kyle Hebert]]), Chun-Li ([[Laura Bailey]]), Crimson Viper ([[Michelle Ruff]]), and Akuma (Dave Mallow). On the Japanese side of things, [[Hiroki Takahashi]], [[Fumiko Orikasa]], [[Mie Sonozaki]], and Taketora all reprise their respective roles in the above order.
** [[Reuben Langdon]] and Danielle Burgio reprises their roles as [[Devil May Cry|Dante and Trish]]. [[Toshiyuki Morikawa]] and [[Atsuko Tanaka]] reprise these same roles from the ''Devil May Cry'' [[Devil May Cry: The Animated Series|anime]]. For Vergil, Daniel Southworth reprises his role from ''DMC3'', while [[Hiroaki Hirata]] does his Japanese voice.
** [[Roger Craig Smith]] and [[D. C. Douglas]] reprise their roles as Chris Redfield and Albert Wesker, by virtue of ''[[Resident Evil 5]]''. [[Hiroki Tochi]] and [[Joji Nakata]] are their respective Japanese seiyuu.
** [[Sam Riegel]] voices Phoenix Wright. Wright's Japanese voice actor is [[Kosuke Toriumi]], who voiced Strider Hiryu in the first two ''MvC'' games (not to mention ''[[Strider]] 2'' and ''[[Namco X Capcom]]''), as well as [[Tales of Vesperia|Yuri]].
*** Speaking of Strider Hiryu, he's voiced by T.J. Storm, better known to some as [[Dead Rising|Brad Garrison]], [[Devil May Cry|Agnus]], and [[Resident Evil 5|Josh Stone]]. In Japanese, his new seiyuu is [[Yuji Ueda]].
** [[Dan Woren]] voices Arthur. In Japanese, he got darrin'd from [[Fumihiko Tachiki]] to [[Tetsu Inada]].
** The three [[Darkstalkers]] got darrin'd in Japanese: Yayoi Jinguji (Morrigan), [[Kae Araki]] (Felicia), and [[Michiko Neya]] (Hsien-Ko) were replaced by [[Rie Tanaka]], [[Kana Asumi]], and [[Saori Hayami]], respectively. In English, they're voiced by Siobhan Flynn, Gina "G.K." Bowes, and Hunter MacKenzie Austin respectively.
** [[Kari Wahlgren]] voices [[Resident Evil|Jill Valentine]], becoming [[The Other Darrin]] to Patricia Ja Lee.
** [[Ryotaro Okiayu]] reprises his longstanding role as the ''[[Mega Man X|MMX]]''-era Zero. [[Johnny Yong Bosch]] is the English voice for Zero, being [[The Other Darrin]] to Lucas Gilbertson.
** [[Takaya Kuroda]] as Spencer. In English, he was darrin'd, from [[Mike Patton]] to [[Dameon Clarke]].
** [[Kiyoyuki Yanada]] as Haggar.
** Viewtiful Joe got darrin'd in both Japanese and English: in the former, Joe's anime VA [[Tomokazu Seki]] got the role back from Shinji Kawada (who voiced him in ''[[Tatsunoko vs. Capcom]]''), and [[Darrel Guilbeau]] takes the role from [[Dee Bradley Baker]].
** [[Mayumi Iizuka]] returns as [[Mega Man Legends|Tron]]. In the English version, she got darrin'd by [[Tara Platt]], who took the role from Caroly Lawson.
** T. J. Rotolo ([[Power Rangers in Space|Dark Specter]]) returns as [[Dead Rising|Frank West]], [[The Other Darrin|darrining]] Peter von Gomm (who voiced Frank in ''[[Tatsunoko vs. Capcom]]''). [[Rikiya Koyama]] is his seiyuu. Funnily enough, Koyama's the voice of Wolverine in [[Wolverine (anime)|his self-titled anime]] and the subsequent ''X-Men'' [[X-Men (anime)|anime]].
* [[Playing Against Type]]: [[Hiroaki Hirata]], who commonly voices [[Chivalrous Pervert|Chivalrous Perverts]] such as [[One Piece|Sanji]] and [[Saiyuki|Gojyo]], voices [[Aloof Big Brother|Ver]][[Noble Demon|gil]] in this game.
* [[Relationship Voice Actor]]:
** For the ''[[Devil May Cry]]'' fandom: Zero<ref>[[Johnny Yong Bosch]]</ref> and Dante<ref>[[Reuben Langdon]]</ref> are related in some way. {{spoiler|Zero is Nero.}} Also, [[Resident Evil 5|Jill]] [[Kari Wahlgren|is]] Lady and [[Kyle Hebert|Bael and Dagon]] are the voice of [[Street Fighter (video game)|Ryu]].
*** Another for the ''DMC'' fandom: Daniel Southworth and Reuben are the [[Ink Suit Actor|Ink Suit Actors]] of Vergil and Dante respectively in ''DMC3''.
*** In ''Ultimate'', aside of the addition of Vergil, adding [[Strider]] Hiryu (T.J. Storm) to the mix also gives us Agnus.
** For the ''[[Bleach]]'' fandom: Japanese Zero<ref>[[Ryotaro Okiayu]]</ref> is Byakuya Kuchiki; Japanese Arthur<ref>[[Tetsu Inada]]</ref> is Komamura Sajin; Japanese Chun-Li<ref>[[Fumiko Orikasa]]</ref> is Rukia Kuchiki; and Japanese Crimson Viper<ref>[[Mie Sonozaki]]</ref> is Sode no Shirayuki (Rukia's Zanpakutou).
*** English Zero<ref>[[Johnny Yong Bosch]]</ref> is Ichigo Kurosaki; English Ryu<ref>[[Kyle Hebert]]</ref> is Sosuke Aizen/Ganju Shiba; English Arthur<ref>[[Dan Woren]]</ref> is Byakuya Kuchiki; English Crimson Viper<ref>[[Michelle Ruff]]</ref> is Rukia Kuchiki; M.O.D.O.K.<ref>Wally Wingert</ref> is Renji; English Chris<ref>[[Roger Craig Smith]]</ref> is Shinji Hirako/Noba; English Tron<ref>[[Tara Platt]]</ref> is Lisa Yadomaru; Enlgish Akuma<ref>Dave Mallow</ref> is Kensei Muguruma; English Chun-Li<ref>[[Laura Bailey]]</ref> is Tier Harribel/Mashiro Kuna; Phoenix Wright<ref>[[Sam Riegel]]</ref> is Maki Ichinose; and Nova<ref>[[Troy Baker]]</ref> is Jin Kariya/Ganryu.
** For the ''[[Super Robot Wars]]'' fandom: Japanese Zero and Japanese Arthur are also the [[Super Robot Wars Original Generation|Branstein brothers]].
** For the ''[[Power Rangers]]'' fandom: [[Reuben Langdon]] (Dante) was the stunt double for [[Power Rangers Time Force|Wes Collins/Red Time Force Ranger]], Daniel Southworth (Vergil) was [[Power Rangers Time Force|Eric Myers/Quantum Ranger]], [[Wally Wingert]] (M.O.D.O.K.) voiced [[Power Rangers in Space|the Psycho Blue Ranger]], T.J. Rotolo (Frank West) voiced [[Power Rangers in Space|Dark Specter]], and of course, [[Johnny Yong Bosch]] (Zero) is known as Adam Park, one of the [[Mighty Morphin Power Rangers|longest]] [[Power Rangers Zeo|serving]] [[Power Rangers Turbo|cast members]] in the show's history. Just a shame that [[Resident Evil|Jill's]] voice actor (Patricia Ja Lee, who was Cassie Chan/[[Power Rangers Turbo|Pink Turbo Ranger]]/[[Power Rangers in Space|Pink Space Ranger]]) was changed from ''RE5''.
*** Including the ''Super Legends'' game, Wolverine/Taskmaster is Lord Zedd, Deadpool is Goldar, and M.O.D.O.K.'s Icthior.
** For the ''[[Tales (series)]]'' fandom: by pairing Zero, Chun-Li, and Ryu, you can form a team with [[Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World|Emil, Marta, and Richter.]]
*** There's also English Jill Valentine<ref>[[Kari Wahlgren]]</ref>, Phoenix<ref>[[Jennifer Hale]]</ref>, X-23<ref>[[Tara Strong]]</ref>, Hsien-Ko<ref>Hunter MacKenzie Austin</ref>, and M.O.D.O.K.<ref>Wally Wingert</ref> So technically, you can make teams using [[Tales of Symphonia|Raine Sage, Sheena Fujibayashi, Presea Combatir, Celsius, and Remiel.]]
*** With Phoenix Wright<ref>[[Sam Riegel]]</ref> and Nova<ref>[[Troy Baker]]</ref> in ''UMvC3'', you can also make a team with [[Tales of Eternia|Reid Hershel]] (by virtue of his two [[Tales of the Abyss|cameo]] [[Tales of the World|appearances]]), [[Tales of Vesperia|Flynn Scifo, and Yuri Lowell]]. Yuri and Flynn can even clash against [[Tales of Vesperia|Alexei]] (via [[D. C. Douglas|Wesker]]).
** For the ''[[Unreal]]'' series fandom: [[Chris Cox|Hawkeye]] and [[Nolan North|Deadpool]] are [[Unreal Tournament 3|Reaper and Bishop]] and [[Dameon Clarke|Spencer]] is [[Unreal Championship 2: The Liandri Conflict|Anubis]].
** With Ryu, Crimson Viper, Zero, Wolverine, Felicia, Chun-Li, and Akuma, you also have [[Gurren Lagann|Kamina, Yoko, Rossiu, Leeron, Kiyal, Leite, and the Anti-Sprial.]]
*** With Phoenix Wright, add in Viral.
** Western fans rejoice. With Phoenix, Wesker, Wolverine, and Hulk, you can have a team consisting of [[Mass Effect|Commander Shepard (Female), Legion, Grunt, and Saren Arterius]].
** You can also try pairing up Wolverine and Spencer, as [[Steve Blum|Blum]] voiced Super Joe (an ally of Spencer's) in the [[Darker and Edgier|2009]] ''[[Bionic Commando]]''. {{spoiler|Or have them duel each other to mimic the actual plotline of the 2009 game.}}
** In Japanese, have Dante fight Ryu or have Trish square off with Chun-Li and listen closely. <ref>[[Toshiyuki Morikawa]] (Dante) was Ryu in ''[[Street Fighter Alpha]] 3'', ''[[Capcom vs. SNK Millennium Fight 2000]]'' and CvS2, and ''[[Namco X Capcom]]'', while [[Atsuko Tanaka]] voiced Chun-Li in ''[[Street Fighter III]]: [[Colon Cancer|3rd Strike: Fight for the Future]]''. They were respectively [[The Other Darrin|darrin'd]] in ''[[Street Fighter IV]]'' by [[Hiroki Takahashi]] and [[Fumiko Orikasa]]. A similiar thing happened in ''[[Tatsunoko vs. Capcom]]: [[Updated Rerelease|Ultimate All Stars]]'', where [[Tekkaman Blade]] (also voiced by Morikawa) could do battle with Ryu (Takahashi again).</ref>
*** In ''Ultimate'', the same applies to any Japanese Phoenix Wright vs. Strider Hiryu matches. <ref>[[Kosuke Toriumi]] (Wright) voiced Hiryu in all previous appearances, but [[Yuji Ueda]] takes over as Hiryu in ''Ultimate''.</ref>
*** Also add in Japanese Frank West vs. Wolverine matches. <ref>[[Rikiya Koyama]] does the voice of Frank West in the game and Wolverine in the latter's anime series.</ref>
** [[Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions|This isn't the first time a Josh Keaton-voiced Spidey had to tangle with a Nolan North-voiced Deadpool]], the only difference being that it was the [[Ultimate Marvel]] versions of said characters there.
*** Speaking of the Ultimate Universe, Iron Fist is [[Ultimate Spider-Man (video game)|Spidey's daddy]].
** Wolverine and Phoenix being voiced by [[Steven Blum]] and [[Jennifer Hale]] respectively is funny considering their roles in ''[[Cowboy Bebop]] [[The Movie]]'' (Spike Spiegel and Electra Ovilo respectively).
*** The two are also paired up in ''[[Bulletstorm]]'' (Grayson and Trishka respectively).
** With [[Roger Craig Smith|Chris]] up against [[Nolan North|Deadpool]], we effectively have [[Assassin's Creed II|Ezio versus his own descendant Desmond Miles]].
** Zero has a [[Back-to-Back Badasses]] moment with Chun-Li in the fourth intro movie. What makes it funny is that, in [[Bleach|another universe]], they're siblings, so they having an awesome moment together makes it even more awesome. <ref>Chun-Li [[Fumiko Orikasa|is]] Rukia Kuchiki, and Zero [[Ryotaro Okiayu|is]] her big brother Byakuya.</ref>
*** In the English version, [[Michelle Ruff|Crimson Viper]] and [[Dan Woren|Arthur]] are the same way.
** Chun-Li (famous idol), Storm (cross-dressing detective), and Zero (badass new student) [[Persona 4|all studied at a school in Inaba while solving a murder spree]] with Zero leading the team while kicking a certain-cop-turned-murderer in the ass. Funny thing though... A few years ago in that same dimension, Chun-Li (transferee/hot new girl in campus), C. Viper (hot girl in campus who joins the Archery club), and Tron Bonne (rich student council president) [[Persona 3|were dorm mates at Iwatodai]] with Tron having another job as an elevator attendant who will OWN YOUR ASS if you are not prepared enough. RAEPIDOLAON!!!
*** That certain cop and Zero have one similar trait; both went crazy: the former due to his boredom as well his excitement of everyone's despair and the latter due to the Eurasia and Sigma Virus...
*** Chun-Li went to Port Island twice... [[Persona 4|That instance with the blackout thanks to a certain Hermit]] and [[Persona 3|as a new student.]]
*** [[Troy Baker|Nova]] is going to renovate your ass!
** In English, having Ryu face Magneto is a bit funny if you've played the [[Playstation Network|PSN]]/[[Xbox Live Arcade|XBLA]] remake of the [[X-Men (video game)|arcade game]], as the redub has [[Kyle Hebert]] voice [[Memetic Mutation|the Master of Magnet]] himself ([[Acting for Two|as well as all of the other male characters]]), [[Ascended Meme|complete with the infamous line!]]
** Arthur's voice actors, both Japanese and English, have done one certain cha-- [[Dynasty Warriors|What the...? IT'S LU BU!! LU BU HAS COME TO DESTROY US! *AUGH*]] (4th series only, though.)
** If you squint long enough, [[Street Fighter (video game)|Ken]] actually appears in this game, as [[Devil May Cry|a gun-toting BFS-wielding red longcoat-clad demon hunter]]. <ref>They're both voiced by [[Reuben Langdon]].</ref>
** In another universe, [[Captain America (comics)]]<ref>Brian Bloom</ref>, Spider-Man<ref>Josh Keaton</ref>, Hulk<ref>[[Fred Tatsciore]]</ref>, and Thor<ref>Rick Wasserman</ref> are [[StarCraft II|Matt Horner, Valerian Mengsk, Zeratul, and the Dark Voice]].
** [[Dissidia Final Fantasy|On the Cosmos side side we got Zero... On the Chaos side we got Chun-Li...]] Even though both of them are on opposite sides, they make a pretty nice badass pose during the intro.
** ''[[Sengoku Basara]]'' voice actors are also aplenty here.

*** Wolverine/Frank vs. [[Toshiyuki Morikawa|Dante (Cyclops)]]
* [[Talking to Himself]]: [[Steven Blum]], wherever Wolverine and Taskmaster are fighting each other.
** Also, [[Paul Dobson]] during Doom vs. Shuma matches.
* [[What Could Have Been]]:
** Capcom [http://spong.com/feature/10110305/Interview-Marvel-vc-Capcom-3-Producer-Ryota-Niitsuma considered porting Vanilla MvC3 to handheld platforms].
** A lot of characters were considered but never made the cut:<br /><br />For Vanilla MvC3, the development team considered [[Phoenix Wright|Phoenix Wright, Franziska von Karma]], [[Silver Surfer]], [[X-Men (Comic Book)|Juggernaut]], [[Ghost Rider]], all four of the [[Fantastic Four (Comic Book)|Fantastic Four]], most of the [[Darkstalkers]] cast (especially Jon Talbain and Donovan), [[Dead Rising|Frank West]], [[Spider-Man (Comic Book)|Doctor Octopus]], [[Mega Man (video game)|Mega Man]], [[God Hand|Gene]], [[Dead Rising 2|Chuck Greene]], [[Monster Hunter|a Hunter]], [[Strider|Strider Hiryu]].<br /><br />For Ultimate MvC3, Phoenix Wright, Ghost Rider, Frank West and Strider Hiryu finally made the cut, but the development team also considered [[Black Panther]] and [[Blade]]. And to top it all, all of them (sans Donovan, Jon Talbain and the Hunter) made the cut as cards for the "Heroes and Heralds" mode.
** In a case of "What Almost Wasn't", [[Deadpool]] almost didn't make it in due to a translation error placing him on Marvel's "no go" list. A Capcom translator asked Marvel why a [[Ensemble Darkhorse|fan-favorite]] shouldn't be in the game, and the mistake was fixed.
** DLC ''was'' initially planned for ''MvC3'' in the form of the ''Ultimate'' version itself (similar to ''Super [[Street Fighter IV]]: Arcade Edition''), but the tsunami and earthquake in Japan messed with the development schedule. As a result, the planned DLC and some other new additions were refurbished and packaged as ''Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3'' in a disc release.
** There're also [http://www.capcom-unity.com/snow_infernus/blog/2011/08/08/comic-con_live_stream_recordings_-_every_minute_plus_everything_else some lines from some characters which didn't make the cut into the game]. For example:
*** Some of Deadpool's lines:
{{quote|''"What am I gonna do now that I've won? [[I'm Going to Disney World|I'm going to Disneyland,]] [[Hollywood Restraining Order|AND I DON'T CARE WHAT THE COURT ORDER SAYS!]]"''<br />
''"Look at me, ma! Ha ha ha ha ha ha '''LOOK AT ME!'''"''<br />
''"Hey, how come '''[[Ryan Reynolds|I]]''' [[Ryan Reynolds|don't get]] [[Scarlett Johansson]]?"''<ref>Admittedly, that one ain't exactly applicable anymore. Maybe he just got [[The Avengers (film)|sick of the accent.]]</ref><br />
''"Hey Spidey! Remember how your webbing can't touch windows? Just like how you couldn't touch me?"'' }}
*** Also, Deadpool was said to sing some lines of [[Michael Jackson]]'s songs to match his moonwalking, but out of fear of being sued, the idea was cut out.
*** Deadpool had quite a number of zingers against Spider-Man, including how Spidey's fighting ability sucks almost as bad as his [[Spider Man Turn Off the Dark|Broadway musical]].
*** Spider-Man's pre-battle line for Ryu:
{{quote|''"Hey, [[Karate Kid]]! Ralph Macchio called; [[X Called. They Want Their Y Back.|he wants his look back!]]"''<ref>Funny thing is, Wolverine actually calls Ryu "Karate Kid" in the comic that accompanied the pre-order editions.</ref>}}
*** This can also be seen with earlier builds of the game. ''Many'' of Deadpool's quotes were revised<ref>"I love me some guns!" > "Have gun, will shoot!"; "Pineapple!" > "Pineapple surprise!"; "BANG! BANGBANGBANGBANGBANGBANGBANG!" > "Hell yeah! I hear bullets taste just like chicken, ha ha!" (which went ''back'' to the original quote in the final release due to fan backlash)</ref>, Iron Man's assist quote was originally "It's on you now." instead of "Excuse me!", Dormammu actually called out "Floating Bomb!" for his Stalking Flare hyper instead of "I summon the power!", and an exchange between Dante and Morrigan (which would have been a [[Mythology Gag]] to Nevan's "Well now, aren't you a handsome devil." line to Dante in ''[[Devil May Cry]] 3'') was cut, among others. There are also a few unused voice clips found in the Sound Test (such as Zero's reaction to being K.O.-ed via chip damage or a light attack and an alternate victory quote for when Dormammu defeats Shuma-Gorath).
** A stage based around ''[[Okami]]'' was considered, but was dropped due to clashes with the art style in the game. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0EPFsrpd60 The theme for the stage was finished] however, [[Wasted Song|and is actually still in the game disc]].
