you called namco characters capcom in smash court tennis

[KMmouse]

Capcom characters? Smash Court Tennis? Sir, nay, that's Namco. D:

[carlosrodriguez-dibs]

So did Kratos ever teach his son to golf?

[yournan]

Scorpion definitely fits in with Injustice, he’s a very DC like character

[shakeyjake]

Mario Luigi and Peach in NBA Street V3 was wild

[talonthehand]

The most out there cameo I know of was Gon, a tiny dinosaur from an unrelated manga, in Tekken 3

[rdDegreeBerns]

"If you wanna be serious about this..." Kong from Donkey Kong is not the same Donkey Kong but actually Cranky Kong

[aheagovulture]

I see why Shrek wouldn't be in any other video games












It wouldn't be fair

[DiegoRYT]

after killing several gods in GOW 3 recently, i can see why Kratos needed a break....

[kappinr-ms]

Speaking of Monster Hunter, I'm kind of surprised that Rathalos and Trenya weren't mentioned as secret guest characters in MGS Peace Walker.

3:55 "Capcom gaming guest stars". ;)

[Dave_ja_vu]

Spiderman/Batman boss fight in Revenge of Shinobi is the one that jumps out immediately

[Gojiro]

thought he just slipped up and accidentally said "Capcom" when aught to have meant "Namco" but 4:32 he apparently does think pac-man really is from research there man, let me know if you see Pac-man chomping the zombies in the next Resident Evil.

I don't think scorpion is that weird in the DC Universe cause first yes nether realm did make both MK and Injustice but let's think this as well DC is a universe were Aliens, gods, Monsters, wizards and demons are in the same universe. And The Injustice Universe is way more darker than the normal DC Universe with them killing a lot of lovable characters.

[personaphantom]

Link in Soulcalibur is anything but weird he fits in perfectly.

[ladydrace]

Man, I WISH you could shoot or explode the blocks in Borderlands 2, but noooo, you have to slowly melee your way through, to copious grunting and shouting from the player character, because apparently punching stuff requires 3 different agonized screams? IDK.

Great list, though!

[CristianCruz-degn]

From seeing so many memes and mods about Shrek, the Tony Hawk appearance just doesn't look weird to me.

[stevenford]

There was one time they put Lars from Tekken in one of the Naruto Storm games

[milkinobama]

I’m pretty sure Leon and Mr X being in MHW is much weirder than Geralt
