In an interview with G4, Tatsunoko vs Capcom producer Ryota Niitsuma talked about the licensing issues facing them with bringing it to the US.
While at Comic Con, I spoke to one of the Capcom representatives about that. To paraphrase him, "It was a pain in the ass, but we got through it". Then later, at the Capcom Fighting Games panel I went to, I believe it was Ryota that said that they had so many things to deal with. Not only did they have to get the licences for the characters, but also their theme songs and their catchphrases.
However, he did love my Dan costume:
I will play this ONLY if Viewtiful Joe is included.

He is already, I asked them to be sure
