I'm thinking about getting either SSF IV for the 360 or Tatsunoko vs. Capcom for the (recently neglected) Wii.

It's comparing apples to oranges I know, but which would you guys get if you were in my shoes, and why?

Super Street Fighter IV for the simple fact that the community around it is huge. Then again, I have no idea if you want to play exclusively online or just with local friends at home or whatnot.

That was my first thought as well. With SSFIV, you'll have endless online matches for the next year or two. No idea what the community would be like around the other game, but I can't imagine it'll come anywhere close to SSFIV.

From what I've heard, but I haven't played it to confirm this, Tatsunuko VS Capcom features some rather annoying things when it comes to games in the Capcom VS series. One button Ultras is one of these features. Also, if the only play is improved 100% over SSBB on the Wii, it is still severly lacking.

Do take in mind though, that the style of each game is drastically different. SFIV and I imagine SSFIV are less focused on being ultra fast paced, insane chain combo, high octane fighters and more about strategy, defense and skill. Don't get me wrong, I think MvC2 takes skill to be great at, but with how easy it is to pick Megaman, Iceman, Cable and spam assist and Megaman blast, it isn't hard to against above average players.

SSFIV, no doubt about it. I played Tatsunoko vs. Capcom at a friend's place and didn't like it at all.
