Fighting games, heck games in general, like to pull out surprise guest stars and exclusive sluggers. Some may be questionable choices but some, some are just downright fun. Who can forget Link popping up in the GameCube version of Soul Calibur 3? Capcom might just have upped the ante by tossing in some more exclusive characters for the PlayStation 3 and PS Vita versions of their upcoming fighter mash up, Street Fighter X Tekken.

Cole McGrath and the tag team of Toro and Kuro were previously announced Sony only fighters but now they’ve added a couple of retro-tastic combatants to the mix. The quarter stealing, power pill gobbling Pac-Man is trading blows with the cast atop his very own Mokujin! The strangest but perhaps coolest guest is Mega Man. Not the Blue Bomber we’re all used to but the MM from the very first box cover. He was nothing like the in-game titular character and he helped start a trend of mocking the worst box art of all time. Thankfully Capcom used Mega Loser Man only that one time and wisely stuck with the Mega Man we all love!

Watching the trailer for the exclusive reveal shows what can only be described as a deranged mental patient off his meds, pretending to be a super-hero. A lunatic who might have spent his early days slurping down 40 ouncers and passing out in the gutter nightly. I really want to play as him! Street Fighter X Tekken will smash consoles March 6th, with the PS Vita and PC version coming later on. Hit the break and peep the trailer, I know you geeks will love it!
