The animation in Darkstalkers is really something. I know the usual view of it is just as another "anime" game because catgirls and such, but when you really take a good look at it the game is filled with animation techniques that are straight out of golden age American cartoons. From the way the characters squash and stretch and bend to emphasize their movements, to the wild takes they do when they take damage, to the outright morphing and shapeshifting. Which is why I'm wary about the possibility of a new one in 3D. So much of what really makes Darkstalkers Darkstalkers came from playing to the strengths of the medium of hand drawn animation. Even the series' producer once said that turning it 3D would lose everything that was good about it.
