Pokken is real, it's coming to arcades first in 2015 like the usual fighting game model.

The site asks fans to follow @pokken_official and tweet on the hashtag #ポッ拳 with the Pokémon they want to see in the game.

Thinking about it, the Wii U release could be a case similar to Hyrule Warriors for Japan, i.e. a Nintendo game published by a third party...in this case, Bandai Namco.

 

[yaesir]

What be happening?! I just got on GAF.

[TreIII]

YES. YES. YESSSSSSSSS!!!!

I can't believe that in a few months, I'll be hunting down Pokken footage on Youtube, Nico and etc., just like I do for every other fighting game.

They are too busy with Nobunaga equipped with machine guns.

 

[sorakirosaki]

o snap are they using the same pachirisu from VGC'S?!

The slveon player really loves them cute pokemon lol

 

[Busaiku]

Riding that Pachirisu train.

Probably gauging interest for characters to add to the home release. I'm sure the arcade version's roster is finalized.

 

[Oni Link 666]

Why are they battling?

 

[Boss Doggie]

dem pachirisus mang

Eh. Mostly finalized, sure, but they could definitely add a character or two if fan support for them was unexpectedly high.

 

[Nanashrew]

Most likely. I wonder what kind of story mode we may get from the home console release.

 

[Lernaean]

Yea, pretty much. It's been in the works for a long time, i doubt they still work for the arcade roster.

 

[HawthorneKitty]

This is Pokken footage in-engine.

lol Sheer Cold

 

[Boogiepop]

Haha, that Sheer Cold!

 

[sorakirosaki]

lol lapras player used sheer cold rofl best move ever

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

Contrary to popular belief on the Internet, Pokemon, the company and gamefreak are Nintendo. You won't see it on any competitors platform. Ever.

Yep, it becoming pretty stupid and inrritating.

 

[Nanashrew]

One question. Who's the Heihachi of Pokken?

 

[HawthorneKitty]

She's so cute with that Frosslass.

 

[zeemumu]

Ryucario and Mazangief

 

[Hatchtag]

She's so cute with that Frosslass.

sometimes i wonder if you even like videogames.
sometimes i think you just like girls.

 

[ahm998]

Mewtwo will be Kazuyia.

 

[bequietdrive]

I'm really hoping a Tekken character or two will show up in this game.

Spoiler

I'm going to be severely disappointed

 

[Macka]

Hmm, wonder if this is a hint that Machamp will be getting a Mega Evolution? Would be weird if only some of the roster was able to. I guess it could just be a super attack and he could be given a random one.

You're wrong that they are all Nintendo.

I imagine that you're right that the bigger titles won't appear on competitor hardware (read: Sony and Microsoft's systems), though.

 

[Busaiku]

When are we getting Detective PIkachu...
Pokemon please.

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Gotta give praise where praise is due.

It's over, nappy time now.

They are all Nintendo. They can't do anything with Pokemon that Nintendo doesn't approve of.

Enton

 

[Piston Hyundai]

I want to beat the shit out of Pokemon as Heihachi.

Oh, no Pokemon suggestions, thanks.

 

[Hatchtag]

Ridley.

C'mon now, I know the screens in arcades are fairly big, but they aren't that big.

 

[Prevolition]

I want to see at least one non-fighting type. ALAKAZAM!

 

[Ultimadrago]

So it did turn out to be Pokken. Cool.

 

[2San]

Contrary to popular belief on the Internet, Pokemon, the company and gamefreak are Nintendo. You won't see it on any competitors platform. Ever.

Neither Pokemon company (which handles the pokemon licensing) or gamefreak are Nintendo, as Nintendo has less than 50% ownership in either the Pokemon company or Gamefreak. I'm pretty sure Nintendo does have contracts locking up the Pokemon IP at least as far as games go.

They are all Nintendo. They can't do anything with Pokemon that Nintendo doesn't approve of.

That doesn't make them Nintendo. Epic couldn't do anything with Gears of War without MS's approval either, but Epic did own the Gears of War IP until recently.

 

[Entryhazard]

One question. Who's the Heihachi of Pokken?

Electivire of course

 

[Hisoka]

hmm, i really wanted a pokken announcement and i still think its awesome

but they really could've shown us some more stuff? Cause it's really a long time since the first footage and it should've evolved a lot

Spoiler

Also, i don't trust the ssb leak now with mewtu and stuff.

This was just a teaser.

The real thing you should be waiting for is when they announce their first loketest (re: location test) in Japanese arcades. You can think of loketests as sort of like "open betas", but just for Japanese arcades.

 

[Boss Doggie]

What's the handle?

damn I forgot, it's in their site!

 

[Nanashrew]

What's the handle?

Their handle is @pokken_official

 

[Deleted member 17706]

That's not the same as being one company.

As a trademark holder, Nintendo has the power to stop a Pokémon project, but I think that's different than Nintendo expressly "approving" everything related to Pokémon.

Just look at this recent Pokémon TCG Online for iOS thing.

 

[explodet]

Everyone need to spam Hawlucha and Hitmonlee now.

Hawlucha would be awesome, but they'd have to find a way to get past the massive height difference.

 

[Geminosity]

Well, I'm glad they finally unveiled Pokken properly... now all I need is for it be good and have Mawile/Kucheat as playable and I'm super happy :3
