Watch Frank West chop his Tatsunoko vs. Capcom opponents 'til they drop
There are some things we all know about Frank West. He's covered wars (y'know), enjoys the potent effects of a well-blended smoothie and, with a mean 5 o'clock shadow, looks a great deal like Niko Belic. But, what you may not know is that despite lacking an entire mall's worth of weaponry, the dude is still a pretty solid fighter.
Even though we've already put together some words detailing the man's moves in Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, it's always nice to actually see that thing we talked about in motion. So, head past the break for a gameplay video of Capcom's Seth Killian demonstrating West's moves for GameSpot.

He looks terrible in the TvC art style.
Cj @ Sep 28th 2009 7:15PM
Yea, whats up with his nose?
supakoopa @ Sep 28th 2009 7:28PM
He looks like that guy from GTA 4.

...niko bellic? Love it or hate it; why has this not become a staple in your mind!
Mr. Manly ESC Mcbeefington Ferguson The Second @ Sep 28th 2009 11:37PM
Yeah at first I thought Niko Bellic was in the game.
Special 1-Little Jacob crew appears to help you.
Special 2-Brucie appears in the Annihilator and starts shooting from left to right and right to left.
Special 3-Your opponent is constantly called by your cousin in every critical moment.
He does look like him during the matches though.

Cousin! Want to go see beeg American TEETEEs?
Alive @ Sep 28th 2009 7:05PM
Must get this game :S
ripslymemc @ Sep 28th 2009 7:05PM
What video game were those little bots from? I remember I played a game like that a long time ago.
ripslymemc @ Sep 28th 2009 7:06PM
Oh, and Tekkamon was really fun to use in super robot wars.
fuzzynyanko @ Sep 28th 2009 7:13PM
One of the Megaman 3d games, and Tron Bonne
VeHeMeNcE @ Sep 28th 2009 7:13PM
Megaman Legends
Rob Accomando @ Sep 28th 2009 9:36PM
yeah, they were also in a game called Dead Rising. =D
ripslymemc @ Sep 29th 2009 12:16AM
Tron Bonne was the game, I have to play this somehow.
Obie @ Sep 28th 2009 7:12PM
I am not surprised he is in this fighting game, he's covered wars ya know?
MechaGamerX @ Sep 28th 2009 7:14PM
You know, I always wondered...
What if Frank was a member of STARS?...
Fishstick @ Sep 28th 2009 7:19PM
That's Niko Bellic.
The Dark Wayne [Planeteer: Power of the Batusi] @ Sep 28th 2009 7:24PM
seriously, wtf?
TwEE @ Sep 28th 2009 7:30PM
Kinda weird that this is the second time Frank West. Has apeared on the wii.
[ArchiGamer] [Live from Omicron Persei 8] @ Sep 28th 2009 7:42PM
Hopefully it will be better this time around.
[ArchiGamer] [Live from Omicron Persei 8] @ Sep 28th 2009 7:45PM
I'm really excited about this game, but I'm still slightly bitter that Gene or Okami aren't in the game.
I'm not that angry anymore, really.
*punches wall*
MowDownJoe @ Sep 28th 2009 8:16PM
Well, Okami gets referenced, but to go any farther would tread into spoiler territory.
LunarAura @ Sep 28th 2009 8:28PM
Niko ripped off Kobun's head trying to jack Tron Bonne's ride
ManekiNeko @ Sep 28th 2009 8:28PM
Forget Niko... he looks like a constipated puppet! That's weird, because the rest of the graphics in the game are really, really good by Wii standards. It looks like his arms are stuck on with Elmer's glue, though.
gaddes @ Sep 28th 2009 8:28PM
His profile image looks more like him, but his in-game model looks like someone broke his nose with a bat... why do they look nothing alike?
Jesus (PSN: Luttdawg) @ Sep 28th 2009 9:42PM
This is actually one of those unsual times where I really want a Wii. It only has happened a few times and will pass quickly.
ColorblindMonk @ Sep 28th 2009 10:19PM
:O I did not see this coming!
xgarryx(warXroutine on LIVE and PSN) @ Sep 28th 2009 10:49PM
id rather frank castle..
[ArchiGamer] [Live from Omicron Persei 8] @ Sep 28th 2009 11:17PM
I rather....Play? Be? Kiss? Fuck?
So many answers.....
Mr. Manly ESC Mcbeefington Ferguson The Second @ Sep 28th 2009 11:40PM
Why does he keep yelling "Deaaad rising!" during its second special? Seriously thats annoying.
Frank West moves would be much better in a game like let's say Capcom vs Mortal Kombat?
xSHiNOx @ Sep 29th 2009 2:28AM
i hope they use the original voice actor for frank west
Espiownage @ Sep 29th 2009 5:32AM
I was hoping the higher voice was only going to be used in the Japanese version, but if you watch the video, Seth is clearly playing the American version. It's possible to change the voice, but it's unlikely.
xSHiNOx @ Sep 29th 2009 3:51PM
espio, i meant the american frank west voice.
Petebot330 @ Sep 29th 2009 9:20AM
Anyone else keep thinking of Dead Rising when you see those commercials for Zombieland?
John @ Sep 29th 2009 3:42PM
I'm still hoping they add Ken and Charlie(some how).But I will pick it up nonetheless.
