Thought the trailer was going to show how the game is going to look on wiiu.

LOL. Good thing Nintendo is the publisher, waiting at least 6 months for Atlus games in EU after NA is torture. I appreciate NISA for picking up publishing of Atlus games in EU, but they could be a little faster.

I dont apreciate it. I would like them loosing the publishig rights to someone who actually gives a shit about EU anime market and release the games PAL5.
Like why the fuck SEGA isnt the one publishing atlus games in europe.
NISA is horrible, weeks or months of wait between americas release, and they dont even touch the games in the slightlest so they wait is stupid. And their distribution is nothing to wrte home about, if you dont buy it the week of release, say bye to a physical copy. Fuck NISA.

 

[Danthrax]

One tiny huge mistake delayed it ~6 months, IIRC.

Just Binged it and read that it's quarter 1 2016 now. Can't let Rodea be the only constantly delayed game, I guess!

Here's a blue Blaziken https://twitter.com/MarkMan23/status/634745605189988356

Thanks!

 

[Boss Doggie]

Pokken time right

 

[jbug617]

Spooky said that the players think Gengar is the best right now. He has a learning curve.

Pokken time right

2 slots wasted on the fucking mascot character?

I thought Pikachu was an obvious but rather harmess addition, but Pikachu Libre taking up a slot? Idiotic.

Good to have confirmation. A little earlier than I expected even.
I still can't believe some people thought this was gonna stay in arcades or come out on ps4/xbox one.
Lucha Pikachu reveal is kinda disappointing though. I feel for the Hawlucha fans.

I agree, only Pikachu Libre would be enough.

 

[The12thGripper]

Like Gardevoir?

Yeah, we know Gardevoir's in Pokkén. What about it? I never said she wasn't.

 

[Sou Da]

Over 700 Pokemon and we still get repeats.

 

[SmithnCo]

Tourney is starting.

Yeah, tired of this Pikachu blowjobbing lately.

 

[PadWarrior]

 

[Ōkami]

This one might be more fitting.

 

[Sou Da]

Couldn't find one Pokemon shirt, Mark?

 

[FleetingFlowAir]

I can't wait for Metal/Pink Gold Pikachu.

 

[Razmos]

Over 700 Pokemon and we still get repeats.

We could have had Greninja or Kangaskhan or Scyther or Lopunny or even goddamn Sylveon and instead we get Pikachu wearing a damn costume?

It's ridiculous.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

I imagine it's less of Pikachu Libre taking up a slot but that she was the Pokemon the developers were talking about when they said they added in a fan favorite after demand.

A costumed Pikachu was probably far easier to implement than Hawlucha, not that the lack of Hawlucha doesn't completely suck.

But people only view fighting game rosters as a set number of slots and they always will so nothing I say here matters.

 

[Malice215]

Tasty Steve!!!!!!!!

 

[GuessMyUserName]

Raichu's my favourite Pokemon so this thread is hurting me deeply

*saves adorable Raichu fanart*

It has Hawlucha's moves and it's pretty much the same size.

 

[Revven]

Weavile rushdown. Kreygasm

 

[Kouichi]

Weavile rushdown. Kreygasm

Of course Justin Wong uses Pokemon Wolverine haha

 

[Malice215]

Justin with the RTSD. Is this Mahvel?

 

[Ōkami]

Love the stages of the game, Regirock looked so cool.

 

[TFRazorsaw]

You guys honestly think Pikachu Libre is the only character they're going to add? Heck, they're working on regularly updating the Arcade version.

We're going to get at least another one before the game comes out. Mark my words.

 

[solomon]

This game looks good :O

 

[PSqueak]

It has Hawlucha's moves and it's pretty much the same size.

Maybe Hawlucha could still be in as an alt for Lucha chu, or even better, maybe lucha chu is hawlucha's alt!


Let me dream.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Weavile's gonna be the Yun of this game I take it?

 

[Busaiku]

Maybe Hawlucha could still be in as an alt for Lucha chu, or even better, maybe lucha chu is hawlucha's alt!


Let me dream.

So delicious.

 

[SmithnCo]

That comeback

 

[pixelish]

WONG FACTOR IN POKKEN

 

[Ōkami]

Wong factor even in Pokken.

 

[EndlessSky]

JWong too good

 

[Malice215]

Damn what a comeback.

 

[Diablohead]

Of course Justin Wong uses Pokemon Wolverine haha

dude knows who has the OP super and rocks it.

 

[Revven]

Machamp time! Been itching to see him in action in the hands of a good player.

 

[Supermanisdead]

whens blaziken

 

[Kriken]

Seems like Pokken isn't immune from the Wong Factor either

 

[Exile20]

Justin man, good job.

 

[TFRazorsaw]

also, the franchise prioritizing its friggin mascot, which was made a mascot because children responded to it so well over the one they INTENDED, shouldn't come as a surprise to you people.

I mean, look at Street Fighter. Not only are there tons of Shotoclones, there's at least two Ryus.

Pikachu Libre is perfectly fine.

 

[Sou Da]

Mark mirin Machamp?

 

[trixx]

No livestream thread? Justin beasting with weavile

 

[TreIII]

He found a character with both a Divekick and Claws. It was bound to happen...

 

[RM8]

My favorites are never going to be playable, lol. Emolga is already just a support I'd actually try to main Luchachu out of the confirmed characters.

 

[Berordn]

It has Hawlucha's moves and it's pretty much the same size.

He's clearly referring to the investment for developing the assets for a character, not that Hawlucha would somehow be impossible to design as a fighter. There's already a Pikachu skeleton and model to use as a base and they're probably able to reuse a lot of logic from Pikachu proper in this one.

 

[Ōkami]

Are type advantages a thing here?

Like would Charizard flying attacks do more damage on Machamp than on other characters?

Probably not. Otherwise one rock attack would sink Charizard : ^)

 

[Diablohead]

It's still early days but I like the look of pokken, it's different enough to not be a reskin of tekken or street fighter so it feels fresh.

 

[Spinosaurus]

Machamp's damage is insane
