Now that bug #40219 is fixed, the game can be started using the built-in msvcr120.dll
The menu works, I can select missions, difficulty and playable characters. The problem arises when trying to enter the game: instead of loading the first level, the game rotates 2 screens forever and the game never loads. One of the screens is a black and white Neo-Geo logo, the other is a white screen with some corrupted textures on it.
This is probably a bug in built-in msvcr120.dll, because the game works properly when using native msvcr120.dll. Actually, the game automatically installs MSVC++ 2013, you only have to add the override: msvcr120=native,builtin
