Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Vita Can Control PS3 Version

Okay, some avid fighting fan out there is going to have to explain how this will work…got the fastest fingers in the west?

Capcom has released some new Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 media for the PlayStation Vita and in so doing, they revealed that you'll be able to actually use the Vita as an "Ultimate Controller" for the PS3 version.

So presumably, this means we can use the touch function of the Vita to play this insanely fast fighting game. …is that possible? You know, we really have to get our hands on a Vita to understand the precision and responsiveness of the front and rear touchpads, so maybe we shouldn't pass judgment right now. Also, don't forget that the Vita version of the game will boast "exclusive Gold Herald" color options for the fighters. Fun glittery skin.

UMvC3 launches on February 15 along with the Vita's week-early "First Edition" hardware promotion. Of course, you can always wait and grab it on the 22nd; we're sure you'll be able to find a copy.
