Gematsu has a batch of screens for Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3, showing off optional touch controls as well as Near and online features. Dragging across the screen moves your character and triggers ducking and jumping. Character swaps and assist are triggered using icons. Attacking is achieved by tapping, and Hyper Combos can be unleashed by selecting the gauge itself. The game will also take advantage of Vita’s Near function to allow you to swap “gold herald colours” in addition to WiFi enabled online play and spectating. UMvC is expected to launch alongside the new handheld in February.

Shoryuken has posted a tutorial showing off how to trigger a couple of interesting bugs in UMvC. By combining Morrigan and Strider’s abilities, you can end up with one character alone on screen, turned 90 degrees to face the camera. Fiddle a bit more, and you can make the screen go black, and finally, your characters will be transported to what’s being called Reverse World – all controls backwards, animations on the wrong side, and a snowy-white environment. The glitch reportedly works only on the Xbox 360 version, with the PlayStation 3 just throwing a wobbly.

Hit the break to see it in action.

According to Heraldo, Zarzuela Palace has been in touch with Koch Media, Spanish distributor of Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3, to warn of a possible copyright infringement with Magneto’s alternate costume. The outfit, which bears strong similarities to King Juan Carlos’s Captain General of the Armies uniform, was first seen in The Pulse: House of M Special, causing a legal tussle and subsequent apology from Marvel. Looks like nobody told Capcom, unfortunately.
