Interview with Capcom vs SNK game Developers

Madman's Cafe
Madman's Cafe has an interesting interview with Capcom vs. SNK developers Yoshihiro Sudo (Producer) and Hideako Itsuno (Director). Here's a sample of the Interview:
What were the points and problems when creating the SNK characters?
After numerous meetings, we decided to create the game with the question in mind: "What would SNK characters be like if they were in a Capcom game?". That is to say, we decided not to concentrate too much in making characters detailedly to SNK. Although some parts, we did concentrate a lot into doing so.
Making SNK characters detailedly the same as SNK is no different from just porting them. So we've created them as SNK characters with Capcom taste, with feelings almost as though they were New Capcom characters.
