Update: December 17, 2003 «©NCSX» Imitation is supposedly equivalent to flattery or at least a form of it. When websites copy our content, we deem it plagiarism rather than adulation but in the video game world, it's legally acceptable to "look and feel" like something else (precedent: Data East vs Epyx 1988). Konami tests the adage on Dec. 18, 2003 when the company brings together a number of marquee heroes from their camp as well as Hudson and Takara's character roster for a smashing fighting game.The eleven confirmed characters in the game, thus far, include Bomberman, Master Takahashi of Adventure Island fame, Microman (from a popular Takara toy line), Optimus Prime, Peachboy from the Momotaro Densetsu games, a pitcher from Powerful Pro Baseball, Super Doll Rika-chan (also from a popular Takara toy line), Simon Belmont, Takao Kinomiya (aka Tyson Granger in the USA) from Beyblade, Twinbee, and Yugo, the werewolf from Bloody Roar.
