The ESRB listing listed it for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, and the Achievements were revealed recently. Finally, Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 was officially announced, and while it could have been an Xbox Original, it’s officially an Xbox Live Arcade title (as well as PSN title), which is good news.
Instead of just being a port, the XBLA version will have all the amenities that Super Street Fighter II Turbo received: an HD upgrade, new online modes, including Ranked Matches and the Quarter matches, widescreen support, and in a nice touch, absolutely no unlockables – all 56 characters are available from the start. The game will cost a reasonable 1200 MSP/$14.99.
If that weren’t enough, a PSN demo will be landing April 30. Are you psyched? Let us know.
(Thanks, Kotaku, which has a gaggle of screenshots to ogle.)

Awesome! I’m so pumped for this, my school has one of these machines on our campus and I play it whenever I get the chance.
Glad to know I can now play it at home with others via Xbox Live!

I can’t wait to see the sales figures for this.
Summer’s gonna be awesome!
