Ashley Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Pokémon Fighter? I thought that was Smash Bros? Someone had to
Serebii Posted August 26, 2014 Author Posted August 26, 2014 Do remember that they did say that it's coming to Arcades first. We all know what that means
Falcon_BlizZACK Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 LOL - How is a Pokemon-Tekken game high-priority right now? Who asked for this!? LOL... Seriously failing.
Fierce_LiNk Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 This is fucking cruel. Cruel. We have the two elements for a game that I mentioned before would be really, really cool. A Zelda fighter, in the style of Soul Caliber. We have the Zelda "fighter" that I don't want (Hyrule Warriors) and we now have a Pokemon fighter that I don't want by the main programmer of Soul Caliber (and also with assistance Tekken Project series director) Hideously cruel. Just...put the right series with the right people and success.
Serebii Posted August 26, 2014 Author Posted August 26, 2014 So, Tekken games from Arcade to Console Tekken 6: 2 years Tekken 5: 3 months Tekken 4: 8 months Tekken 3: 1 year Tekken 2: 7 months Tekken 1: 4 months Tekken Tag Tournament 2: 1 year Tekken Tag Tournament 1: 9 months Bit of a wildcard in attempting to predict
Jonnas Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Guys, guys... This is awesome! Seriously, if you claim you never wanted a Pokémon fighter, or at least a game where you control a battling Pokémon, then you have to be lying. Would I prefer a game where we control a big variety of Pokémon instead of just humanoid fighting types? Yeah, I'd love to play as a Gyarados, wreaking havoc from my pond. Or use Metagross as a tank. But Jesus Christ, people, this is Machamp! We have a playable Machamp! Who else, Hitmonchan, Hitmonlee? Maybe a few non-fighting types like Blastoise, Mewtwo or Charizard? Alakazam and Kangaskhan? Heracross? I am positively excited. Surely, this will make it out of the arcades!
Cube Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 This interests me more than all previous Pokémon games put together. Once they make a Wii U version, anyway.
Tamazoid Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Guys, guys... This is awesome!

But im happy you are happy - its just the whole Tekken play style puts me to sleep. Did anyone actually enjoy that Tekken Tag game? Bluergh!
Zechs Merquise Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 @Serebii, what if it is a full Pokemon game for Wii U? What will you do??? Also you can't simply answer 'it won't be', you have to say what you will do if it is a main game for Wii U!!!
Dcubed Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Aww shit Guess I can't win 'em all... Dammit! You win this round Serebii...
EEVILMURRAY Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 But Jesus Christ, people, this is Machamp! We have a playable Machamp! Who else, Hitmonchan, Hitmonlee? Maybe a few non-fighting types like Blastoise, Mewtwo or Charizard? Alakazam and Kangaskhan? Heracross? They've basically realised my wish. Because beforehand they thought: "You know what would make a great Smash Bros fighter? Pichu. Yeah, he's good" But the arcade only (at the moment) thing makes it impossible to play.
Serebii Posted August 26, 2014 Author Posted August 26, 2014 @Serebii, what if it is a full Pokemon game for Wii U? What will you do??? Also you can't simply answer 'it won't be', you have to say what you will do if it is a main game for Wii U!!! I will cover it, To the best of my ability. Whether or not it is a main game is irrelevant to me, Only thing that matters is that it's Pokémon Never mind that the developers have said that there won't be main series games, The universe is infinite and anything is possible Besides, nothing can stop me... Ever.
Dcubed Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Bit weird that they didn't announce it for Wii U yet, because it's obviously coming; in fact I wouldn't be shocked the arcade machine it was running on wasn't just a modified Wii U (much like the Triforce board or the Wii based hardware that the arcade version of Tatsunoko VS Capcom ran on). I suppose they probably want to get Smash out of the door before they start talking about any other sort of Wii U fighting game. They wouldn't want any chance of taking away sales from Smash after all
Fierce_LiNk Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 I've done that in Smash Bros Melee!.. But im happy you are happy - its just the whole Tekken play style puts me to sleep. Did anyone actually enjoy that Tekken Tag game? Bluergh! I quite enjoyed it. It made a nice change, actually. What didn't you like about it?
Retro_Link Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Do remember that they did say that it's coming to Arcades first. We all know what that means Oh like Mario Kart Arcade.
Fierce_LiNk Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Do remember that they did say that it's coming to Arcades first. We all know what that means That...they'll introduce it to arcades over here? No? Nevermind.
Falcon_BlizZACK Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 I quite enjoyed it. It made a nice change, actually. What didn't you like about it? Knowing that this game will be stylised after Tekken, even Soul Calibur gets repetitive and spammy very quickly. What did you like about it?
Fierce_LiNk Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Knowing that this game will be stylised after Tekken, even Soul Calibur gets repetitive and spammy very quickly. What did you like about it? Isn't it like most fighters where it's only spammy if you don't really know what you're doing or if you don't learn the attacks? At least that's what I found. I think the says more about the user than the game, imo. I liked it. It had a great character roster, it looked visually good to me, controls were nice and precise, tons of attacks that you could implement. I played a bit of it online and had a great time with it. There seemed to be quite a lot of additional game modes too, but I didn't dabble into any of that. Considering I only paid about a tenner for it, I was really happy.
Serebii Posted August 26, 2014 Author Posted August 26, 2014 Oh like Mario Kart Arcade. They never said that for Mario Kart Arcade GP. They never said first. In this, Ishihara said that it was coming to arcades first, and then laughed saying that he wasn't meant to say that.
Josh64 Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 I didn't have high hopes in the first place but man.
D_prOdigy Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Ah, Tekken, the sophisticated man's fighting crumpet. I remember playing it on a busted-up arcade machine in a three-star hotel in Italy during a school trip. Near Lake Garda. Absolutely no idea what was going on. Just know it involved button-smashing and pandas. Got beat by one of my friends. A girl, no less. What it needed was a tutorial delivered by Machamp. Can't wait. This can be my jumping-on point.
