Mandalore Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 How long before they reveal amiibo support, and exclusive amiibo moves which you can only unlock from the arcade version?
Jonnas Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 My god, Pikachu is hilarious in this. The fact that it's not Tekken has made interest levels skyrocket. Will be keeping a very close eye on this now. You have no idea how amusing this quote is Pikachu's sassy head turn is actually the trademark taunt of Kazuya Mishima! And from what I've seen, Pikachu can use his Electric God Wind Fist attack, as well (a small, fast electric uppercut). Pikachu has also show a couple of moves and mannerisms from Kazuya's father Heihachi, but I think that's enough Tekken for now
Wii Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 New Pokkén Tournament trailer shows a variety of stages and Pokémon in battle
S.C.G Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 This'll be excellent when it inevitably comes to the Wii U, if they don't release it then it's a missed opportunity, they could sell the game bundled with that arcade controller for £59.99 easily. Add in some amiibo support, heck even a new range of them - can you imagine? - and it would probably do pretty well.
Serebii Posted April 28, 2015 Author Posted April 28, 2015 They need to hurry up and announce the Wii U one. Looks so good
Guy Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 @Serebii, I figure you're the person to ask about this - do you know if the game is currently available for location testing anywhere in Japan or is it still tucked away behind closed doors? Cheers!
Glen-i Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 I really hope this game doesn't fall into the trap of having most of the characters be Gen 1 Pokemon. Smash Bros did that while completely ignoring gens 3 and 5 (2 as well if you don't take Pichu in Melee into account) Almost half of the known playable characters are from that so far. Don't get me wrong, Gengar, Machamp, even Pikachu are fine by me. But there are plenty of perfectly awesome Pokemon from the latest games to choose from. Sorry about the massive sizes.

Cheers! No further location tests have been announced. Had some last week
Wii Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 (edited) Shouldn't really be posting this but whatever. Weavile, Charizard revealed for Pokken Tournament Pokkén Tournament - Weavile Revealed! Pokkén Tournament - Charizard Revealed! Edited July 3, 2015 by Wii Automerged Doublepost
Glen-i Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 Don't see why you think you shouldn't be posting that. It's perfectly relevant... Weavile is a nice choice, but anyone could have predicted Charizard. Stop catering to the Genwunners! Get some others in there!
RedShell Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 I wish Charizard was called Lizardon over here too, so much cooler.
Falcon_BlizZACK Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 This is looking BAD....ASSSS!! I hope there is a little element of super-training or Pokemon style leveling up - I'll be hooked! Pokkén Tournament - Charizard Revealed! Haha they gave Charizard little pecs too!
Jonnas Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 The game is shaping up nicely. So far, I count 9 characters, is that right? I can see a final roster of at least 14, so we still have a few reveals ahead of us. I'm hoping we see Starmie! I wish Charizard was called Lizardon over here too, so much cooler. Sometimes, I wish the Spanish version used names different from English just so I could see names like Lizardón in a more fitting language

It's out in two weeks.
Glen-i Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 This is it for the arcade version at least. It's out in two weeks. Wait, was Blaziken ever officially revealed? The roster has no 5th or 6th gen playable Pokemon yet, if I'm remembering correctly. That's really lame if that's the final roster. Far too focused on Red/Blue.

Wii Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 Bandai Namco held a stream for Pokken Tournament earlier today. In about two weeks, another broadcast will be held. We can expect the next Pokken Tournament stream at the following times on July 16: – 2 AM PT – 3:30 AM PT – 5 AM ET – 7:30 AM PT – 10 AM in the UK – 12:30 PM in the UK – 11 AM in Europe – 1:30 PM in Europe

Launch day so don't expect much. That's why I didn't post about it.
Glen-i Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 (edited) Buff Charizard is such a dream boat. I can't stop laughing at those pecs! It's probably because of 19 years of typical Charizard design, Bandai Namco decided that it'd look better with pecs. ...Did I mention Charizard has pecs now and it is really funny? Edited July 3, 2015 by Glen-i
Mandalore Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 This game would make a pretty good NX launch title.
Mr_Master_X2 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 This is it for the arcade version at least. It's out in two weeks. I have serious doubts a home console version is coming. Have they even said? I just assumed it was an Arcade Kart situation.
Serebii Posted July 4, 2015 Author Posted July 4, 2015 I have serious doubts a home console version is coming. Have they even said? I just assumed it was an Arcade Kart situation. Bandai Namco fighting games always come out in arcades first then get announced for home console release. When this game was first announced, Tsunekazu Ishihara said the game is coming to arcades first, then joked that he shouldn't have said that. The Pokkén Tournament arcade machine is powered by a controller which has a Wii U button configuration and the colours of the buttons match the SNES/N3DS
RedShell Posted July 7, 2015 Posted July 7, 2015 If you can handle the presenters of imagine-nation then here's a nice look at the game: http://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/vod/imagine/20150707.html Working alongside that giant Pikachu has got to be distracting. : peace:
