"The Bambi"?

 

[Hot Coldman]

If any Tekken guys at all show up in this in a playable form, it'll be Mokujin.

 

[IntelliHeath]

A guest character, in a Tekken game? No chance in hell.

Spoiler

I agree entirely, though I could see the guest character being some other Nintendo character that already has a history of beating up Pokemon in Smash or something. Having Heihachi beating on Pokemon would look...odd.

Yeah, I felt that Heiachi might be out of the place, so that's why I suggested Kuma.

 

[evilromero]

I just realized Pokken was a portmanteau of Pokemon and Tekken. Whoa.

Understands the definition of "portmanteau" yet couldn't figure out Pokken? Lol

True real must have is Scrafty.

I definitely need a Wii U...

I put him in mine

I obviously was not including a man of refined tastes such as yourself in that group! Need to educate the unwashed masses.

 

[shinobi602]

I had no idea arcades were...still a thing lol.

Still, future Wii U release eh? Is this planned to have standard fighting game mechanics?

probably don't know how to type it

 

[EDarkness]

Those visuals don't look like the game is intended for a system with PS4/XBO fidelity. I mean, it doesn't look bad by any means, but look at the textures on Lucario. It was clearly designed with a Wii U port in mind.

This game isn't coming out for a while. There's still plenty of time for them to work on graphical things. Even more so before it's actually released on the Wii U. Still, I don't think it looks too bad. Not something I'd play, but seems people are excited about it.

 

[javac]

The game will probably incorporate the class types from Pokemon right? So every pokemon is weak to certain types and certain moves has strengths and weaknesses? You think it'll go that deep?

 

[Boss Doggie]

So it's gonna be roster time huh

Worst Fighting Pokemon Ever. Worst Hair Hair Cut Ever. Worst Gen III Pokemon Ever. I hate his design so much !!!

I think you need to get back into the box.

I hope you just didn't shit on STARMIE.

It's like a giant shuriken.

Don't try and act like you're not the one who started it!

 

[abstract alien]

I want that figure!

 

[Platy]

Roster :

Blaziken
Lucario
Machamp
Hitmontop
HitmonLee
Greeninja
Dito
Mr Mime
Bisharp
Pamchan
Yoshimitsu
Hawlucha
Final Boss : Mewtwo

 

[Kouichi]

Please have Greninja.

3D fighters need their token ninja character!

 

[90TilInfinity]

Dream Roster so far:

Primeape

Absolute necessity.

 

[SgtCobra]

Every fighter does need its hot female character :3
I hope they get her thighs right.

I-I...I don't even know what I'm reading..

Spoiler

I'll be fucking disappointed when they reveal it will only have 10~15 characters maximum and most are fighters.

You'll end up fucking disappointed then son, me too btw.

 

[TheBlueBomber]

I have nowhere that has arcade systems near me (like at all trust me, i've check EVERYWHERE) but im not worried about a system release, it'll happen

 

[Joqu]

Plenty of non-fighting types would be great in the game, but from what we've seen it seems like it'll probably be fighting-type only.



Whatever they use for Tekken I'm sure.

Probably not happening, especially not for Nidorino, but I'd love to be able to recreate this:

I suppose Nidoking might make it in if they're open to non fighting types.

 

[BGBW]

This is probably Machamp's biggest break since being everyone's first shiny Pokémon card.

 

[Devilgunman]

Because the longest wait from a Tekken game to console was 2 years and that was considered a huge mistake by every party involved. TTT2 was one year, T5 was like four months. They aren't going to sit on this game for more than a year, 6-12 months is considered the standard for arcade to console and even that is shortening with most titles. The graphics are clearly on Wii U's level. Not sure about the engine but it could be a variation of TTT2's, which is already on Wii U. So yeah, all the signs pointing to Wii U.

From the look of it Pokken is still very early in development. It will come in 2015 but it could be fall 2016 and if it will take them 6-12 months to make a port which falls into summer 2016 as I suggested. By then Nintendo better of making this game a launch title for their next gen console instead of the fading WiiU.

 

[18-Volt]

Hmmm. I think Pokken might get Guest Character, Heihachi or Kuma. Yeah, I'm going to call that.

It's Namco, guest character is probably gonna be Greymon.

lol, I have no idea what that is

I'm not sure what I was expecting.

Man, Machamp is really ugly.

 

[IntelliHeath]

Yep. I'm very flexible with whoever get in. So far we know that we have Machamp, Lucario and Blaziken

 

[Castef]

Now THIS will save the Wii-U!.......... Wait.......... It's an Arcade game?

Please understand.

Judging by the first pair of screenshots I'd say that a PlayStation 2 conversion could be easily doable.

 

[Stulaw]

Mega Mewtwo X could be the final boss, being like Kazuya/Devil.

 

[thelatestmodel]

Holy shit, this is going to print money.

 

[OmegaSmash]

Oh my god, it actually ended up being a fucking Tekken/Pokemon crossover. God damn, I'm eating so much crow right now like you wouldn't believe. Holy shit this is nuts. I take it that this will be like what Harada wanted to do for Tekken in Wii U initially (a simpler Tekken game for beginners) before Iwata told him to just port over TTT2.

I'm still legitimately shocked that the announcement actually ended up delivering on the hype, which is unusually considering how Pokemon announcements usually go.

 

[KooopaKid]

It's a good idea to create a buzz in the arcades before the WiiU release, particularly in Japan.

 

[SuperOrez]

When it comes to consoles it'll be free to play with the option to buy your characters with amiibos.

 

[Canis lupus]

I had no idea arcades were...still a thing lol.

Still, future Wii U release eh? Is this planned to have standard fighting game mechanics?

Almost every fighting game goes through an arcade release.

 

[Ozium]

Have they shown any non-Fighting type Pokemon?

why is this Arcade only tho

 

[BGBW]

So obviously Ditto will be the Charade of the game.

 

[phanphare]

I'm not sure what I was expecting.

sounds like some type of reality tv character or some shit

also "Nintendo" is now trending too
