Nintendo vs Capcom...a good idea?

IGN ran an article on their wish for a Nintendo vs Capcom game recently

http://wii.ign.com/articles/114/1147008p1.html

Apparently, there was a question put to the guy at Capcom (Ono) who's in charge of the fighting games back during the German convention and he said something along the lines of "that would be pretty cool to try and do" which, in a way the Internet could only do, became "CAPCOM GUY WORKING ON NINTENDO VS CAPCOM" in a matter of days. Of course, that's not actually the case, and it let to Ono to actually having to apologize to Iwata 'cause the rumour mill got out of hand on his off-handed comment.

I know a lot of you guys here are Vs fans like I am. What do you think of a Nintendo vs Capcom crossover game, would you even care? And what style would you have it done in, Vs series or Smash Bros? I personally would love to see Nintendo and Capcom each work on one version with their in-house fighting series the way Namco and Capcom are doing right now, but if you had to pick just one of those fighting styles, which one do you think would work best?

Obviously this would only ever happen on the Wii so let's not bother trying to use the format as either a good (Seek) or bad (Sine, Don) thing. Let's leave the system comments out of it.

I really can't argue with that.

But what about Smash Bros style? Wouldn't it be excellent for a game like this? I'm a little torn on which one I'd prefer, I want both. Either version would be excellent methinks.

As long as it's not like the failed Namco versus Capcom I don't care too much about what they do with it.

So you're OK with Capcom vs Namco but not Namco vs Capcom? And what don't you like about it, the Tekken engine?

That would be nice too. But I think the Capcom characters might be better suited for the crossover. But I sure as shit won't cry over that game, either

Namco x Capcom was this shitty little RPG/Action Adventure game that came out in Japan only. :P

Like Eric said, Capcom versus Namco wasn't even a fighting game. The main character is something original character they added. I never actually played it but it pretty much sounds like pure fail and it's probably why we never saw it here.
