I recently (sunday) just setup mvc2 new age on my computer. I'm using the DEmul emulator (dreamcast emulator that has net play support).
Iconics genesis 32 software. I downloaded the iso from emuparadise and followed a tutorial I found online on wordpress on how to setup the emulator. I also own a ps2 controller adapter for my pc and that was really easy to setup in the emulator's control configuration. Honestly the game runs smoothly with no problems. I also own a 144hz monitor so there is no lag and should feel similar to a crt. Only problem is I have to idle to get points in order to buy all the characters unless you find a vmu online. Don't forget to setup a memory card. Should be inside the link below, it mentions it.
That's the tutorial • • • •.

Being a huge fan of its original release, I expected to be tired of it after a few matches as I played the original until there was little challenge left. A couple of hours later however I found that the game's qualities that hooked me the first time still worked years later. Being able to create multiple combos and unlocking numerous features including a large amount of characters still gives the game significant replay value.
Even the graphics hold their own with the characters having respectable detail and 3D backgrounds that improved dramatically over the old 2D backgrounds. Although more recent 2D fighters have been smoother, it's smooth enough and isn't distracting. Putting everything else aside, Marvel vs. Capcom 2 is almost the exact same on the PS2 as it was on the Dreamcast.
Those that played it on the Dreamcast will definitely want to take that into consideration before buying, but otherwise, it has aged well and is still competitive with newer 2D fighters. The inclusion of online play would have increased its value significantly but in spite of that, Marvel vs. Capcom 2 is still a decent 2D fighter and those who haven't played it before won't be disappointed. That aside, I really enjoyed playing.
I'm a big fan of the cross over games, and I'm an even bigger fan of the original Marvel Vs. Capcom, so seeing this one show up was mighty cool.
There's plenty to unlock, with something like 52 different characters in all, with galleries and extra costumes available for each of them. The moves are just the same as always, and they haven't changed the basic gameplay that keeps this title good. While there are a few fighters that are rather obvious clones of one another, there's a good mix of different fighting types. Several of my favorite Marvel characters are featured, like, Marrow, and Captain America. On the Capcom side, you've got a good choice of characters, some from, others from Street Fighter, and yet even more waiting to be unlocked.
