PS Vita Specific Features
-------------------------
The power of the PS Vita allows its version of Ultimate Marvel
vs. Capcom 3 to play and look virtually identical to the console
releases, but it also provides players with control functionality
unique to the Sony handheld. Utilizing the PS Vita's front and
rear touch screen and pad, players can unleash simple combos by
'mashing' the screen with taps. The basic level of these 'touch'
combos ensures that players who choose to use standard combo
input patterns using the Vita's d-pad and face buttons are not at
a disadvantage, as more advanced combos are always available if
the right button pattern is entered correctly. The touch pad can
also be used to unleash hyper combos by tapping a character's
full hyper combo meter, and to tag in a new character from a
player's team by simply touching the image of that character.
