Capcom Valentine's Day Cards Are Cute
February 12, 2010
Capcom is having a little fun with Valentine's Day by showcasing free e-cards suitable for saving and sending to loved ones. Street Fighter, Ace Attorney, and Mega Man are the franchises in the spotlight, and they're all cute little character images combined with appropriate messages (Toad Man's card proclaims "I'm toad-ally into you", for instance). They're all rather sweet with the exception of what at first seems to be the most darling card of the set in which Mega Man X hero Zero and his sweetheart Iris walk off into the sunset together:
The whole thing falls apart when you realize that Zero sliced poor Iris into oblivion in 1997's Mega Man X4. That's why I'm striking it from my personal canon.
