Fighting games aren't exactly my cup of tea but I've got some pokemon loving friends who have been itching to play this and with my Prime discount made it easy to put me over the edge into getting it. Game looks pretty good so I'm hoping to get some time in to try it before work tomorrow and see if it can really hook me.

Can you unlock Shadow Mewtwo without the card if you buy it digitally?
Yes. The card only unlocks him temporarily anyway (until you turn off the game). It's pretty useless and nothing more than a collector's item.

The card doesn't even permanently unlock him. It just unlocks him until you turn off the system, you have to re-tap it every time you play that way. He's only permanently unlocked by playing through the game.

Great OP. I won't be able to get in Day 1 (finances & whatnot), but I will join the party eventually.

And it doesn't even seem that long ago when we got this little tease in 2013

This is what happens when you release games in a timely manner, don't show it everywhere, & constantly talk about it when you know it's not coming soon.
 
I've been playing for a while and just want to say have fun everyone, it's a great and unique game with a well crafted battle-system :D

DE eShop here, and it has a buy button now!

Oh, a banner on the eShop says there is free demo too? Can't find the demo though...

Edit:


"kostenlose Demo" = free demo

A banner is ont French eShop too, but not available for now :( Maybe after Pokkén Tournament Early Acces Competition Final :)

Looking forward to digging into the game tomorrow. Gonna probably try and unlock all the supports first once I get it.

Watching some of these stages, I really wish there were (optional) stage hazards. Imagine Regi ruins where the partially active Regi statues slam the edges of the arena at irregular intervals, or getting whacked with magikarp in Magikarp Festival.

Right now they're just background and music skins, which is too simplistic.

Just downloaded the demo in the EU eShop. Around 1GB. You can only use it 10 times. Only single-player. You can play with Pikachu, Gengar, Charizard and Lucario. Only one stage (I think it's Ferrum Stadium)
 
Having put a fair amount of time into the game today I'm digging it, I'm greedy though and already crave a sequel with more pokemon, MORE!

The various Pokemon here all feel quite different to one another, noticeably when I was first starting off I was using Blaziken whose moves are pretty straightforward, then I tried Sceptile afterwards and was flailing around awfully due to his more trap focused nature.

the dream is dead :( ah well, at least I will be able to try out the fighting. If it's a good fighting engine and the local MP impressions are good I'd really consider it.

Game looks really fun, but I don't know if I could fit another fighter in my rotation.

Smash 4 and SFV take a lot of time already.

Demo is way too easy but good to test out the controls.

Super annoying that it is limited to a single match and then kicks you back to the title screen when it's over. Also only supports the GamePad it seems.

But game is super fun. Pikachu is awesome.

OP Mewtwo is #150 not #151. #151 is Mew.

Game is awesome i got it on Monday already but only had time to play it twice, one time with friends and one time doing little training and the league. I really dig it.
