The list of games (the one that is not in the table) lacks of the Arcade Games Vampire Savior 2 and Vampire Hunter 2. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.228.104.210 ( talk) 07:49, 26 October 2012 (UTC)
I'm deleting the "Vampire Savior/Darkstalkers IV" section because it's nothing but pure speculation at this point. -- 72.196.196.198 ( talk) 10:21, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
The true Vampire/Dalkstalkers/Night Warriors canon.( LonerXL ( talk) 23:52, 21 August 2009 (UTC))
I'm removing this because it sounds like POV and it isn't really true if you consider the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure fighting games. -- Feitclub 03:40, Apr 7, 2005 (UTC)
Who wasn't in the OVA series? A lot of characters appeared just to fight Pyron (and lose) but this article suggests someone was missing. Who? Rikuo maybe? -- Feitclub 04:00, Apr 7, 2005 (UTC)
If nothing else, Rikuo is in the intro.
Jedah, B.B. Hood, Lilith, and Q-Bee were not in the OVA because it was set in the second game's timeline. They weren't in the series til the third game. Rikuo appeared in an intro fighting Bishamon and was last seen being beaten by Pyron. I felt it was rather unfair he, Anakaris, Sasquatch, and Victor got beaten so easily by him because each character has their own strengths and Pyron isn't that hard in the games. - Suffor
It might be useful to elaborate there, state what other games these characters have appeared in. Most are probably just featured in the Marvel Vs. Capcom games, but if they've made other substantial appearances -- like Morrigan as a playable character in the Dreamcast port of GunBird 2 -- they should be mentioned. -- alpha5099 1:45, July 2, 2005 (EST)
How is it that Baby Bonnie Hood has her own article but we don't have oen for Demitri Maximov? That seems odd...
I can't find any sources to back this up but doesnt the 'Q' in 'Q-Bee' stand for queen? Has anyone else heard that. Also, is "soul bee" what she is known as in Japan because if so then that needs to be clarified?
We need to decide this once and for all: should characters be listed in categories by their first or last names? For example, "Morrigan Aensland" or "Aensland, Morrigan". My suggestion is that for the Darkstalkers characters category, it should be by first name because that's how they're usually refered to in the games. For other categories it should be based on what's done there already; if characters appear in a category where it last name first, then we'll do that. It's really getting annoying seeing people change it back and forth; it's like watching kindergardeners going "Mine!", "No it's mine!". -- VederJuda 18:57, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
I play a table top RPG called World of Darkness (WoD) by White-Wolf. My GM is one of the few players who started playing it when it first came out. You may be wondering why I am telling you this. Well, I remember talking to him about Darkstalkers and he said, and I quote, "Darkstalkers used to be an aproved World of Darkness game." Which I take to mean that Darkstalkers used to be considered a part of the World of Darkness universe, does anyone know if this is true?
what exactly does the word "darkstalker" mean? I didn't see any info on that.
The World of Darkness and White Wolf logos did once appear on the US flyers for Vampire Saviour which is the sequel to Darkstalkers. See the external links.
Why should MobyGames not be included? The page has got its own article as well as its own template. The template is frequently used among articles on video games.
I am completely confuse about the darkstalkers 3 Us game, I got it has all 18 characters in it, and was released in 1998.
Is it possible to put everyone's moves and their effects on their profiles? 76.170.109.110 05:26, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
There have been a couple of edits now where the credit for the American TV series was changed from DiC to Graz. Searching for "darkstalkers" and either of the company names shows that DiC returns a lot more hits, but Graz seems to return hits that are more closely tied to the production (such as personal resumes), though these are not reliable. My gut feeling is that both companies were involved in the production. Someone who has a copy of the show can look up the credits to see what is what, but in any case we need a reliable source to verify. I don't want to keep reverting edits if they are true, but at the same time the credit for DiC currently has more weight and it'd be preferable to settle the matter definitively than compromise by having two unsourced credits. Ham Pastrami 04:02, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
Another thought occurred to me. If we can't find any reliable sources for the US cartoon, then perhaps it fails WP:N altogether and should be removed. It's already kind of a stretch that the cartoon is being discussed here rather than being made to stand on its own merit as an article. We could make a Trivia/Spinoff section and move all the merchandising stuff there. I seriously doubt that any non-game material is really significant enough to warrant more than a passing mention. In fact, this is what I'm going to do. If it terribly offends you, revert. Ham Pastrami 01:21, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
Well consider this. I saw the show when it was originally on, and I never saw the DiC logo anywhere. I only saw the Graz Entertainment logo followed by the Summit Media logo. I swear that's all I saw. The entire series was released by ADV. You can watch it if you don't believe me, but I know what I saw.
And another thing. Put into perspective, Google isn't a realiable source either. Sure, there may be more hits, but that doesn't account for anything. I know what I saw. Maybe it would be best if the production company just wasn't mentioned at all since there doesn't seem to be any consensus one way or the other. Brittany Ka 10:51, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
There's no indication of the platforms and areas where the games were released. -- AnY FOUR! ( talk) 18:22, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
Well, I finally got tired of the overloaded infobox that the article was using. Since it seems like there is some aversion to splitting up the article, I opted to introduce collapsible infoboxes instead, so that each game can at least have its own clean infobox. So far I've only gotten the 3 main games. I may get around to the other titles eventually, but if someone feels like doing it before me, by all means. Ham Pastrami ( talk) 19:46, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
I wouldn't mind doing that. Most articles like for Street fighter has one.

How about we mention Morrigan's appearance at Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 as well? Blueknightex ( talk) 03:48, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
While it is often appropriate to group some things together, this particular article 'contains' a video game series, manga, comic, anime, and American animated series. It's bursting at the seams and ready to explode. Shouldn't at least some of this (the animated versions, for instance) be branched off into separate articles? (Don't look at me! My job is just to gripe and walk away disappointed. <grin>) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.254.86.17 ( talk) 05:27, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
At the very least: the 3 main games and an animated and anime series. -- 94.246.150.68 ( talk) 16:17, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
It's just a possibility, and not a very high possibility that we will see a new installment any time soon, or at all. I don't think gossip and off handed mentions by a lone developer should constitute as valuable information. As a long time fan of the series, I have to say that that section will give readers the wrong idea about the prospects of a new entry. Prospects that seem almost certain, but in reality, are not. This leads to cases of misinformation. — Preceding -- 184.78.0.157 ( talk) 05:27, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

@ Kung Fu Man:, I know the same info exists in both locations, but List of Darkstalkers characters recently survived two AfD's, so I thought it should be more obviously linked somewhere (since navboxes don't show up in mobile), and I do not want the community's time wasted with a third AfD. I was considering removing the character list from this page since it's redundant if the info exists on a separate page, but I didn't know if removing such a large amount of content would be seen as disruptive.
