What do you think would be Konami's answer to Justice League

Okay, about 4 years ago, I came up with this fan-made Capcom experiment that I intended to make seem like Capcom's answer to the Justice League, the team had Mega Man, Protoman, Captain Commando, Jill Valentine, Strider Hiryu, Radd Spencer (from Bionic Commando) and Arthur (from Ghosts N Goblins). The project never got farther than two fanfics though. What happened was that when I was writing the third fanfic, my computer had fucked up somehow, and I had to buy another one, and I tried to re-write it, but I couldn't get the strength or courage back. Anyway, getting to the point.... Lately, I've been wondering what it would be like if Konami had done something like this. Who do you think would be team members? I think these are possible candidates:
Goemon
Bill "Mad Dog" Rizer
Sparkster (Rocket Knight)
Solid Snake
Gillian
Twinbee (Hee hee, I bet you saw that coming! XD )
I'm not sure who else....... I was gonna put "Trevor Belmont" in there, but then I was worried that nobody would get that.

I think the Konami team would include: Solid Snake (or Big Boss) & Alucard

Capcom kind of already did that with Cannon Spike which had MegaMan, Cammy, BB Hood, Charlie Nash, that knight from Ghost N' Goblins and a handful of others.

Yeah, it's called Capcom X Namco. It's looks good, but wasen't released outside Capcom, which is a crime!

Not this-

I assume you meant "wasn't released outside Japan" rather than Capcom, or were you just misinformed?

I own Cannon Spike. I thought it was a cool concept, and I liked that not just Megaman was on the team, but also Arthur. I was just didn't really like the rest of the team, and I wanted to do something that could be like a whole franchise, like Capcom's answer to the Justice League.

Import Capcom X Namco then. It combines a lot of the best Capcom and Namco characters into one nice package, I have heard. I've been meaning to obtain it, myself as well actually.

Even so, I still think it kicks ass, seeing all of those great characters together, it is worth seeing just for the visuals and by using a guide, a friend has it, you see, so I recommend it. (I reckon that a lot of great games don't ever get out of Japan, therefore, I dabble into Japan eBay stores to find anything worth buying, ya see).

A lot of shit also never makes it outside Japan. They're known there as the "kusogeh", or "shit games".

Hey, I'm not saying I don't wanna play it. I'd love to play it, but I can't read japanese, and I can't speak it either except for basic words (baka, hentai, etc.), so what's the point? That's all I'm asking. And I agree that there's alot of great stuff that never made it over here. Like that Sailor Moon game on the Super Famicom. That was a cool beat 'em up featuring 5 of my favorite sexy anime babes.

And there's also of course the majority of the Twinbee titles that didn't make it over here.
