Wait Pikachu has EWGF???!! Cant watch stream but some of yall saying that

OMG if true, I'm sold on this game! SOLDDDD!!!!

 

[Sigismundo]

OK so.

Pikachu = Jin/Kazuya/Heihachi/the other guy
Lucario = Shoto
Machamp = Gief
Suicune = Zoner (Could almost say Glacius but I don't know if they'd take inspiration from Western fighting games)
Gardevoir = Not sure (Rose?)

 

[Nanashrew]

I love this girl haha. She's just really excited and fun.

 

[Sayad]

That pop off, lol.

 

[i-Jest]

Was someone able to record the stream? I'd like to watch it.

 

[Macka]

Why would a bigger arena be better? Some people tend to run away a lot and spam projectiles when given so much room which is kinda annoying.

That's true I suppose, but the stages still feel really boring because of it.

They should have just copied Dissidia's model.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Loketest areas and scheds shown

 

[TreIII]

And there's our loke test announcement. 1/30-2/1.

 

[Axass]

Is that the schedule for some sort of event where they're showing the game?

 

[Boss Doggie]

heh, Apex

 

[Nanashrew]

Schedules for location testing.

 

[OmegaSmash]

Isn't APEX also during that weekend? You don't think...?

 

[Axass]

Yep, same dates, I think there's a chance of a surprise showing alongside Splatoon.

 

[Lernaean]

Are they actually using these pads to play on the arcade btw? Is the pad part of the cab and its only controls?

 

[Numb]

Interested to see how good tournament players can get at this game in the location test.
It was much more hype than i thought too.

 

[Nanashrew]

Isn't APEX also during that weekend? You don't think...?

Yeah. Apex is in 7 days

 

[JoeInky]

I'd be so much happier if Pokken was at APEX instead of Splatoon.

 

[TheOGB]

EWGF Heihachi Pikachu... goddammit I am in.

 

[Nap1400]

I'd be so much happier if Pokken was at APEX instead of Splatoon.

I'd be so much happier if Pokken was at APEX instead of Splatoon.

This, though I'd love some more Splatoon footage, Pokken looks hype.

I don't understand why the controller only has a D-Pad considering the game is a 3D fighter. Seems like it would control better with a stick.

Best way to spend Valentines! <3

 

[random25]

Nice showing from Harada and company. Really made more interested in this game.

 

[HIR0]

Location tests announced at the end of this month

 

[Smiles and Cries]

I've seen enough of Splatoon by now to know everything about it that would be interesting to me, and I have 0 enthusiasm for watching competitive shooters nowadays, nevermind ones on a console.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Hi res assets when

 

[JoeInky]

Sakamoto is collaborating with the Pokken team.

 

[Principate]

I'm watching a re-stream of a re-stream... re-streamception....

 

[Numb]

I imagined a Pokemon game with a Tales like battle system years ago, never expected it to be a fighting game.

Some needs to replace the win with hype

 

[Lernaean]

I don't understand why the controller only has a D-Pad considering the game is a 3D fighter. Seems like it would control better with a stick.

That's what i'm asking too. Is that the arcade controls? I mean, there is no stick in the cab? It makes no sense.

 

[Zyrox]

I expected this would be quite different from Tekken. Looks really cool. I like how colorful it is. Definitely on my wishlist now.

Spoiler

Whens Aegislash tho

Recording of the stream. And did they ever properly explain the controls?

Streets at least caught the triggers.

L to activate your support Pokemon, R to guard. Missed the rest of the controls, sorry.

OMG Machamp's lose animation lol

 

[SatoAilDarko]

I like it being very different from Tekken. There's already an excellent Tekken game on Wii U in Tekken Tag 2 with a ton of characters, costumes and exclusive Wii U features.

Looks like every recording of a pokken stream is doomed to have annoying needless commentary over it.

 

[Deleted member 13876]

Never would have expected Suicune, but really glad it made the roster.

 

[I-hate-u]

Pikachu is Ganryu.

 

[Busaiku]

Hurray Pikachu.

 

[Nanashrew]

serebii's got some hi-res assets coming!

Joe should make a new thread about it

For those curious about the controls

And of course they missed that D-Pad and buttons brings other techniques.

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Looks nice

 

[Nanashrew]

More from BulbaNewsNow:

When your gauge is full, you enter 'Resonance Burst' mode. In Resonance Burst mode, you can use 'Burst Attacks' to deal lots of damage.

There is no distinction made between 'high', 'middle', and 'low' attacks in Pokkén, and they can all be blocked using the R button.

 

[NotLiquid]

Yep those renders are definitely Tekken-like.

 

[Axass]

I really don't like the glossy aesthetic they chose for the characters, but the game in motion looks great.

Well it is for those instant Twitter news posts, gotta be first and all!

But yeah, they should have clarified there.

Debating on if I want to use that Suicune as a new avatar or just keep the one I have...
