This might be one of the most difficult matches to determine a winner on. Both have produced their share of great games and contributed to the pillars that have shaped the video game industry.
But, having all combatants from each side facing off is what is on the line.
Which side would win?
Snake could kill a good number of Capcom characters with snipes, but I doubt he’d be able to deal with Megaman and Zero.
He’d also have to deal with Nightmare, Astaroth, and other SC characters
Konami gave us Metal gear solid, but Capcom gave us Resident evil and killer 7. I just can’t choose.
Soul Calibur is owned by Namco Bandai not Capcom.
That’s right, sorry I thought they were Capcom
@Baron Somebody: That’s fine mate, I only know ’cause I’ve made that kind of mistake before as well, I used to think Namco and Capcom made Soul Calibur together lol.
I think that Jehuty/Anubis would beat Megaman and Zero.
I’m unsure of Konami fantasy stuff apart from Castlevania and Yugi Oh…
Konami would beat Capcom in a dance off tho (because of DDR lol)
i forgot about ZOE,i think konami takes this.
konami also have foxhound, and the other groups from metal gear solid series
which are all pretty good so i think that thay are gonna win
just because only a few of the capcom fighters are ranged combatants so the others will either die or be very much injuered by the bullets
but the killer 7 are pretty cool so they can do a lot of damage 2
Capcom have Resident Evil so they acually have quite a lot of ranged fighters as well as big monsters from that series, plus a lot of the Street Fighter characters are very strong so I think Capcom might just win this fight. Although it would be very, very close.
Capcom:
Street Fighter
Darkstalkers
Devil Kings
Resident Evil
Dino Crisis
(unsure if they count) Marvel vs capcom games
Megaman
(In case Marvel vs Capcom Games don’t count) Onimusha Series
Konami
Metal gear Solid
Contra/Probotector
Gladius
Castlevania
Bucky O’Hare
Zone of the Enders
So I chose a number of major series and some not so major series of games from each company.
I’ve tried to pick the best series from each company.
In my opinion, Konami has the most power. But then i’m prejudice, Probotector was my favourite game for the mega-drive and Bucky o’hare was my favourite tv show. Also with metal gear solid and Zone of the Enders, Konami really have the “Huge metal beasts with power” game won.
Isnt megaman like really strong? Couldn’t a fully powered megaman like beat a ton of Konami stuff alone?
Wait…is Tekken Namco too?
don’t forget devil may cry from capcom…..they got Dante, virgil and sparda, not to mention Mundus and all the other villains and heros
“Isnt megaman like really strong? Couldn’t a fully powered megaman like beat a ton of Konami stuff alone?”
I would agree with this. Given the mega franchise (no pun) of Megaman and all its spinoffs, I think this is heavily tilted to Capcom. Devil May Cry simply puts the final nail in the coffin.
Capcom gets my vote.
I almost went with Capcom, but then I remembered Castlevania has the Grim Reaper. Grim Reaper has a pretty spotless record…
Konami is a decent company, but I prefer Capcom a whole lot more on the average. Tis a shame that Capcom doesn’t really have that many jrpg characters, otherwise they would have literally made a capcom one of, if not THE, greatest powerhouse in video game history. But I would love to see capcom and konami team up and kick namco’s ass and then sony’s and then microsoft’s. *evil smile*
But honestly, I tend to stay the hell away from “video game company vs. video game company” matches. Not only are there too many factors to consider, but they tend to lead to so many flame wars, piss-off’s, and potential loss of interest in both companies.
I’m good with the Capcom vs. Konami gig,but except that the picture has SNK charecters in it with them.It says Capcom vs. Konami,not SNK.
Konami loses because Capcom has DMC and Dante easily destroys Snake and handles Castlevania. Dante just brings this match so much into Capcom’s favor.
Don’t forget that RE could just infect a whole lot of Konami by releasing the Ouroboros, Las Plagas, and T/G viruses into the atmosphere…given that some of Capcom’s own might get infected too but that raises the battle now to the point where every single last BOW has to be eliminated or else more will just join Capcom’s ranks.
Hm…let’s not forget that the Megaman universe literally has robots that can shoot micro black holes, time stops, 12000C flames, etc. Capcom has this I’m sure.

You are all wrong Namco wins

Unfourtunately namaco wins, damn Xenos…
DUDE! THERE BOTH AWESOME!! I LOVE HOW THEY CROSS OVER “METAL GEAR PEACE WALKER” AND “MONSTER HUNTER!”
DUDE! BOTH CAPCOM & KONAMI ARE AWESOME!! I LOVE HOW THEY CROSS OVER “METAL GEAR PEACE WALKER” AND “MONSTER HUNTER!”
konami wins because as jan valentine says “UP UP DOWN DOWN LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT BRINGING THE MOTHERF*CKING DEATH BY KONAMI!”
Um… Capcom wins… horribly. They have Akuma, Wesker, Megaman, Dante, Vergil. Zero, Amaterasu from Okami, and the entire Darkstalkers cast. To elaborate on Darkstalkers:
“To fight against these Darkstalkers, merely having a fit body, martial arts skills, and fire arms are not enough. It is possible for a Class C creature to kill an entire army of first class elite soldiers. A strong mind and spirit is also needed to keep one self from losing their own sanity. And a dark heart is needed so that they are not poisoned with the aura that the creatures give off. ”
Most of the Darkstalkers cast are B+ grade, so each one of them is quite above the level of taking on armies singlehandedly. The heavy hitters are into the cosmic scale. Pyron is like watered down Galactus. He runs around eating planets on a daily basis, wears suns around his fingers like rings, he has his own orbital radius of 400,000 light years (the Milky Way is 100,000 light years in diameter), has enough FTL speed to enable universal travel, and wiped out the dinosaurs (he’s about 200 million years old). This is actually only relevant though to establish a scale, since this guy was defeated and absorbed by Dimitri Maximoff, an A class demon. Jedah and Morrigan (S class demons) are stronger than Dimitri. Fortunately for Konami, Belial is dead since he was strong enough to one shot Jedah and was said to be several hundred times stronger than A class demons (Dimitri).
All in all, Darkstalkers gives Capcom’s side a little less than 20 army killers and at least 9 low-mid cosmic beings (Jedah, Morrigan, Dimitri, and there’s 6 other A rank demon nobles besides Dimitri).
ahh but remember konami also has dracula snake alucard belmonts and a bunch of others waiting to kill so how would capcom win unless morrigan showed cleavage(then its unfair fight)
One word: Xenosaga.
I don’t like it but that’s why Capcom loses, and I like Megaman and Okami.
@Envoy isn’t Namco Bandai a separate company from Konami altogether? Last time I checked this match was between Konami and Capcom but that’s just my guess.
I thought the two were together, kinda like how Sonic team was to Nintendo.
I’ll give that a check some time but for now, off to that exam -.-
Namco Bandai is a completely separate company. The only link between Konami and Namco is that Namco Bandai Partners Australia Ltd distributes their games in Australia only, which is a holdover from when the company was still Atari Australia. You’re probably thinking either of that or Atari, which they did buy.
“ahh but remember konami also has dracula snake alucard belmonts and a bunch of others waiting to kill so how would capcom win unless morrigan showed cleavage(then its unfair fight)”
Any of the Darkstalkers heavy hitters I just listed blow up the planet they’re on. Any questions? Alternatively, composite Megaman can shoot micro black holes and has a potentially infinite timestop. Against any armies Konami can muster, Darkstalkers brings 120 million C class demons that each can wipe out an entire army of elite soldiers, 6 million B class demons that are even better, 10,000 B+ class demons (including most of the playable cast), and about 30 billion D class “inferior beasts” (which actually just means they don’t look human) that vary in strength and intelligence from cannon fodder to B+ class (there’s about 2,000 B+ strength D class demons). I’m fairly confident that the Darkstalkers universe can solo this matchup.
To continue with w00t’s explanation, there’s also the fact NamcoXCapcom doesn’t feature any characters from Konami’s license.
“I’m fairly confident that the Darkstalkers universe can solo this matchup.”
Still doesn’t quite explain how they’d deal with ZOE (though I’ve never played either).
I’d agree Capcom takes this, though. You don’t even have to go as far as involving Dante. A RATHALOS can kill Naked Snake in 2 hits (even if it’s non canon). He’s among the mid-class monsters in his game!
Let alone Elderdragons that can control the weather, CREATE weather, eat islands, make it rain miniglaciers, COMPLETE control over gravity AND Magnetism, etc. etc.
Dante and asura take this
