Which of these games actually came out first? To my knowledge they were both released in September of 1996... which makes it pretty obvious nobody "stole" the idea but it would still be interesting to know.
Anybody who knows their stuff care to fill me in?

Nobody knows do they? Well, if I manage to figure it out I'll share the findings.

- 9/20/1996 for Kizuna - september 1996 for Xmen vs. SF
Hard to say ... without a precised date for Xmen vs. SF (^_^')
Not a Match. STRUGGLE !!

Jap release of Xmen vs SF was Sep 10th '96.
You can check the release of most capcom games from the revision number. Here is Xmen vs SF, 960910.

So XmenVsSF wins! Let's throw a party!!!
But wait! To throw some fuel on to the fire of conspiracy... what if Capcom DID copy SNK!!!
Think of it: Kizuna Encounter is all original characters, it needed a new enegine, among other things. XvSF is just built up on the Marvel Enegine with some mostly reused sprites.
Don't tell me a mostly recycled game took as long to produce as a brand new one!! Capcom's spies must have learned about KE and quickly green lite XvSF, dropping the game more then a week before Kinzuna to steal the 'wow' of being a tag-team game!!!

But what if Kizuna was meant to be a normal fighting game at first, but when they heard about the upcoming tag feature in Xmen vs SF they slapped it in their game, much like 3D processing was slapped into the Saturn once Sega learned of what the PS1 could do?

It is a mystery no mortal man can solve.
hmmmm, interesting I guess we never will learn (but why wouldn't they have released the game BEFORE XvSF if that was their plan?)

The tag features work in somewhat different ways anyway, so what does it matter?

Well, then... I don't think either was the first tag team fighter; I'm sure I played some crappy fighter with some sort of tag team feature some time before both of them... I'll have to look back, see if I can figure out its name. Anybody here ever hear of Chattan, BTW?

DIdn't the old arcade wrestling games have a tag feature. Like Wrestlemania or what not? Yeah, they weren't fighters, but they did involve fighting/wrestling/grappling whatever.
On the other hand, Samurai showdown was the first fighter to use partner assists! People often forget about that!
But the thing is, that IMO, when Capcom steals an idea, they do a better job of implementing it. Sorta.

That board game type thing Capcom released in Japan recently or something else?
And if you can think of that fighter, let me know, because I could use the info. I consider myself pretty knowledgeable on fighters... hell, Kizuna Encounter is pretty obscure. Even so, Xmen vs SF was easily the most important historically, implementation counts for a lot.

No, Chattan is an old fighter, about the same time as Battle K Road... Has a lot in common with Karate Champ.

JJWE, are we like clones or twins or lost brothers or the same person but from alternate realities? I think this is the second or third thread where we come to the same conclusion.
Anyway, I have to decide whether I want to be the good twin or the bad twin...

Well, in all honesty I wrote that _after_ reading your reply. Not that I didn't know what you were hinting at originally, but anyway. :)
