	Video games - Marvel vs. Capcom: Clash of Super Heroes

Marvel vs. Capcom: Clash of Super Heroes (called MvC1 by Street Fighter fans to differentiate it from MvC2) is the third game in the Marvel vs. Capcom series of fighting games. It re-imagined many classic Capcom characters as fighting game sprites, while being the first game to feature real-time two-on-two fighting.

It was the first major tournament game of the Street Fighter scene, at the height of its popularity having monthly tournaments at the legendary Southern Hills Golfland, but due to the inherent flaws in the revamped game engine, it was eventually dropped in favor of the newer and more exciting Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes.
