Rumored 'Tatsunoko vs. Capcom' Characters Revealed?

Though the final roster of combatants for "Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars" hasn't been made official yet, Capcom has confirmed one, Tekkaman Blade, and a possible list with five more names indicates one of our own Capcom picks, Frank West, may be in the game.

Blade, better known to American audiences as Teknoman, is a lock, according to GameSpot. The other five potential cast members, meanwhile, Mega Man Zero, Frank West, Yatterman #2, and Joe Asakura from "Battle of the Planets," are unconfirmed.

Those five names entered the discussion on a Shoryuken forum post from a sleuth who found corresponding images file names in the "Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom" character website's code, those being:

'images/oncharactor_btn_yatter02.jpg'
'images/oncharactor_btn_joe.jpg'
'images/oncharactor_btn_tekkabla.jpg'

Any of those choices would make perfect sense, but until they're confirmed anything is possible. Capcom's official position on the matter is "No comment!" according to Kotaku.

Personally, I'm partial to Amaterasu from "Okami" and Bionic Commando, and I think there's a golden opportunity being missed if they don't slip in somehow. There's still time, though. I trust the right decisions will be made.

So you do think Tekkaman Blade will make a fitting addition to "Tatsunoko vs. Capcom"? What do you think of the other possibilities? Anyone you'd still like to see make the cut? Share your reactions in the comment sections below.
