ARcade game? brb selling everything i own and moving to japan

 

[SatoAilDarko]

It'll come to Wii U. That's obvious.

 

[foxuzamaki]

Guys it will come to arcade first then WiiU, like all fighters

 

[upandaway]

If it's also on Wii U and they just didn't announce it, it will 100% be sold with a stick. And my money will evaporate.

 

[Raynes]

Wii U got trolled! Should just make this PSV/XBONE/PS4 exclusive at this point.

 

[BGBW]

So Ludicolo and Stunfisk will be in this right?

 

[Fourth Storm]

Arcade? ARCADE!?

 

[Pachimari]

What's the camera angle like!?

 

[Magusx]

So underwhelming...

 

[Sadist]

Oh, it'll appear on Wii U allright.

Like three months after the arcade release;

 

[CrazedProfessional]

Even Gamefreak is staying away from the Wii U.

 

[FryHole]

I saw "Wii U" scroll by amid a sea of Japanese, anyone spot that and know what it was saying?

 

[NEO0MJ]

It'll come to consoles eventually, don't worry

Probably. I mean, the only recent fighting game on arcades that I know of with no console release is that DBZ game.

 

[Busaiku]

It doesn't mean it won't come to WiiU if it gets an arcade release first.

It means we'll be waiting a while.

 

[jobrro]

There's no way it won't eventually come to Wii U. It's a Nintendo game guys.

Wasn't Mario Kart Arcade made by Namco?

 

[munchie64]

Unless they port it to all systems, I don't see it coming to consoles.

Do you realise how insane that sounds lol

 

[Azure Phoenix]

Well it's certainly shocking. Shocking that they aren't releasing it on Wii U day and date with the arcade version.

 

[PBalfredo]

It'll come out to arcade first, then consoles.

You know, like every other Japanese fighting game ever.

Chill.

 

[Chû Totoro]

Arcade + optional Amiibos -> Wii U you get your stats and saves in the Amiibos

I'm just saying things right now.... does someone have a translated recap' ?

 

[SliceSabre]

No doubt it'll come to WiiU. I mean fighting games coming to arcade first is pretty standard right?

 

[chadboban]

Wait its only for arcade? Didn't Nintendo make apply for the trademark, or was that the Pokemon Company?

 

[DragonSworne]

Guys it will come to arcade first then WiiU, like all fighters

I didn't realize all fighters come to Wii U.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Unless they port it to all systems, I don't see it coming to consoles.

"Console", then? This isn't going to be arcade only forever.

 

[Shoyz]

All this hype for the 'shocking' announcement that Machamp is in Pokken?

 

[wrowa]

Lulz. So people have been excited for nothing then? That's kind of hilarious. But then again, if it follows the usual pattern of Tekken games it should get a console release sooner rather than later. At least if it's not a Mario Kart kinda deal where Nintendo isn't actually interested to have the title on its own platforms.

 

[Kansoku]

GODDAMN GAME FREAK. ARCADE?

 

[Sammy Samusu]

the backfire :lol

 

[ArchedThunder]

Even Gamefreak is staying away from the Wii U.

Not Gamefreak

 

[Griss]

Looked bad. Really bad. But then again so did Hyrule Warriors at first. I'll reserve judgment, but I'm antihype at the moment.

 

[Kandinsky]

No WiiU? LOL!

 

[Werewolf Jones]

Don't all Namco Bandai fighters start out in arcade first? I don't see the problem.

 

[Zomba13]

Hitmonlee better be in the game and play like Hwoarang.

 

[Hatchtag]

Was hoping to see more playable fighters than Machamp and Mega Lucario, plus we already know of Lucario and Blaziken. Maybe we'll see some more as the stream goes on? I donno.

 

[Samurai_Heart]

Calm down Arcade naysayers, you guys do know how the fighting games come out in arcade at Japan first and then a year or so later on console where it's rebalanced and has added contents.

 

[Gurrry]

wow only for arcade?

preorder cancelled


but serioulsy?!?!? wtf

 

[ZeroGravity]

Wasn't Mario Kart Arcade made by Namco?

Yes, but there's no reason for that to be on consoles because Mario Kart games are already there.

 

[copelandmaster]

What's the camera angle like!?

Like a Debug cam - all over the place. It'll be like Tekken in the final game.

 

[BraxNL]

this announcement makes me sad

 

[JB-the-Hunter]

I didn't realize all fighters come to Wii U.

Are you trolling? It's Pokemon...

 

[harmonize]

only for arcade at the moment

 

[Atlas157]

It's like everyone in this thread forgot that Japanese fighting games come out on arcade first then consoles later.

 

[Joqu]

I know it's the Wii U and all that but there's no way Ninendo would let that stay on arcades only, I wouldn't worry

 

[DragonSworne]

Are you trolling? It's Pokemon...

Pokemon can be released on any system, right? Notice how the title of the game is Pokken Tournament, and not Pocket Monster Tournament or Pokemon Tournament. Could be for a reason

 

[PadWarrior]

This arcade only?

 

[foxuzamaki]

It's like everyone in this thread forgot that Japanese fighting games come out on arcade first then consoles later.

Exactly

 

[Chû Totoro]

I didn't realize all fighters come to Wii U.

But maybe you did know that most of arcades fighters are coming on at least one console in their lifespan?
Pokémon is a Nintendo co-owned franchise... hence Wii U.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Why are people so upset at arcade lol

It will eventually get ported. it's freakin' Pokemon lol

 

[Pachimari]

Like a Debug cam - all over the place. It'll be like Tekken in the final game.

Oh thank you for this.

I'm excited when it comes to Wii U.

 

[Regulus Tera]

Look at all the people here who don't know that arcade fighting games get ported all the time.

 

[Chindogg]

Idiots saying it'll stay in the arcade only.

You guys realize that every arcade game nowadays eventually releases on console right?
