Since it came out in 2011, the latest additions to its marvel side roster have all either had substantial face time or their own outright movie or series

Hawkeye
Rocket Racoon
She Hulk
Super Skrull (kinda)
Deadpool
Dr. Strange
Taskmaster

with what we believe to be him in the newest ant man trailer, you can now add MODOK to that list

wonder when we get Dormmamu

People on the MvC3 boards were upset by Rocket getting in. "Who the hell is Rocket Raccoon?!" was a common thought. Look at him now

Who the hell takes exception to a raccoon with a gun? That's freakin' awesome.

Also, Marvel should have used the video game market to hype up the next series villain -- Kang the Conqueror or whoever. The MCU really feels dead without a "main villain."

Once you've raised the stakes high enough, you can't lower them again and leave them lower indefinitely. This would be like if, I don't know, James Bond stopped a terrorist from taking over the world then spent the remainder of the series taking on low level mob bosses. With all due respect, who cares if someone leaves Spider-Man dead in an alleyway? We had the fate of billions on the line. More than that if you factor in space races.

Probably anyone salty that their pick didn't get in over what used to be a niche character. Personally I don't think anyone should look at a character's inclusion as a "not my character"-slot but that's whatever. I wish Venom got in but I'm not gonna hate every other Marvel character in the game over it.

No I mean obviously MVC3s roster was in accordance to a long planned media lineup, especially as evidenced by the characters seen over the past 12 years. It was intentional

I guess that's fair enough. A raccoon with a gun seems like fair consolation for any omission.

Didn't both these games under perform? At least compared to infinite?

MvC3 outsold MvCI as of December 2021. UMvC3 is about half a million under Infinite.

He was just a way to have the Fantastic 4 in the game without taking up 4 slots.

Oh right, Human Torch kept eating the memory/framerate or something didn't he?
That's a shame, he was awesome in that game.
