I want to buy this game, but prefer to buy on the eshop.

I see that the retail version comes with a Mewtwo card that unlocks the character. What happens if I buy digital? Can I unlock the character somehow? Is it included?

The character is unlockable through normal gameplay, the card just accelerates that.

Still mad there's no sign of Hitmonlee or Hitmonchan

This was suppose to be their game.

Pikachu libre always fills me with joy, the stone cold stunner in its trailer basically won me over with the character.

I haven't performed a Stunner since Smackdown 2.

When will the OT go up?

 

[PreyingShark]

When will the OT go up?

Since it's a WW release, expect it on the 17th in the USA.

Thanks!

Yeah, I'm still shocked at the lack of Hitmons. Or any more fighting types, really. Who would have thought fire would rule the game?

Got review code of the game in & captured footage of all the Burst Attacks from the main starting roster and the initial stages from the game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1AMRyn5wWA

So the 4 character slots are not going to be filled before launch?

 

[WadeitOut]

People already have the game and have been streaming it. So I would assume not.

 

[NEO0MJ]

So the 4 character slots are not going to be filled before launch?

Maybe a season pass?

Man this game is ugly. Nintendo really has no idea how to take advantage of next gen shader tech. The pokemon all look like they're made of the same material and all feel really desaturated. They should really be going for a similar shader look to Dota2 or TF2 since the characters are so stylized, but instead they're using these really plasticy looking stuff. On top of that, the animations for a japanese company are really stiff and lifeless. They look like a bunch of mocap animations and don't have any of that expressive timing that is so inherent to great looking japanese fighting games.

Hm....ok.

Actually, you should blame Namco for that. They're the ones who're developing the game.

What do you think of Tekken's animations?

Hope so!

 

[The_Intruder]

Hope so!

Or better, free dlc ala splatoon.

 

[PadWarrior]

I'd take that too!

 

[NEO0MJ]

You're too hopeful.

 

[sam777]

I am sure Harada said he does not like the idea of paid dlc. So I am sure if there is future additions they will be for free.

 

[zaccheus]

What do you think of Tekken's animations?

Tekken's animations are all right IMO as they fit better for human characters and they are a staple of the tekken series so people have gotten used to them. I think Street Fighter V has some really good animations, definitely a huuuge step up from Street Fighter 4. Bayonetta/viewtaful joe/dark stalkers/other old school capcom fighting games has some really great expressive animations that for some reason japanese companies have a hard time replicating in 3D.

I'll be doing a livestream possibly tonight.

Looking forward to it

Can't wait to finally have some people on twitch streaming this.

 

[OmegaSmash]

Tekken Tag Tournament 2 had time locked characters on consoles, right?

 

[NateDrake]

Can't wait to finally have some people on twitch streaming this.

We are allowed to stream 30mins.

I think the pokemon all look fine and the few people complaining are making a mountain out of a molehill

 

[chaobreaker]

I'm still not sure this game has that much depth. Looks like everyone will have 1 or 2 unique combo strings and that's it.

Can't wait. What's your twitch channel?

 

[WadeitOut]

Great now I'm worried you are in fact dead.

It's the only possible explanation

 

[PadWarrior]

What are all the online features and what do amiibos do?

 

[NateDrake]

What are all the online features and what do amiibos do?

amiibo unlock new titles, give you in-game cash, and other minor things you can use in the game. It's late now, but I may still do a stream if people are interested.

This is what I wanted Pokemon Stadium 1 and 2 to be
