Topic: Pokken Tournament - OT

They're at the bottom of the barrel already?

Wut.
Another reason why we have too many Pokemon. Oh well. At least my Charizard's still playable!

Hardly the case when there's still an ice cream cone Pokemon they can add

No lie that would'ave been a better choice. Cause we need a joke character in this game.

NoE confirmed the game to launch on 18th March in Europe.

European box art:

Chandelure? CHANDELURE? THAT'S AMAZING! I was worried they wouldn't put another ghost type in after they announced Gengar, who is personally one of my least favorite ghost types (Haunter >>> Gengar). Ghost type is my favorite so I'm quite excited now. I hope he's off-beat so everyone gets annoyed by me picking him like I do with Olimar in Smash.

I think I have to get this game now. And I'm glad the game is getting a far bigger character selection than I originally thought.

@Tsurii: I think Lickilicky is really cool, but I can't stand it's pre-evoled form, Lickitung. It's definitely not one of my top picks, but Lickilicky would be hilariously fantastic (as long as Lickilicky uses the tongue well).

I was really hoping for Sylveon until they deconfirmed it as a fighter by making it an assist. Sigh. At least it's in the game in some form.

As of now we seem to have a lot of fire types. What we need now is another water type, and a GOOD fifth gen rep.

Basically I'm saying I want Dewott as a fighter sooooo bad.

@MasterWario: Odd. People normally have the exact opposite opinion.

@TeeJay: About what? Lickilicky? I guess I've also seen both in the tv show and Lickilicky seems so much cooler, and I actually haven't used either in the video games (because ugh, normal types, and where do you find one anyway?)

My Town?

Probably a way to show off all the Pokémon you caught.. err.. bought as DLC.

When I first saw this game announced, I assumed it would use be collection of 15-25 of the most popular fighting type Pokemon. Coz y'know, it's Tekken. Adding characters like Suicune and Chandelure seems real weird to me, but hey whatever as long as it's fun they can add what they like.

@NintyMan: inb4 the complaints before we even know the details.

Are we thinking the Fight Pad is gonna be a must for Pokken? It certainly looks amazing. I really hope the amiibo unlock interesting things within the game vs just single use items or something. But still, anything to put all my figures to use is a good thing.

The tutorial in Pokken Tournament is sooo much better than what's available in Smash.

The announcer's voice is annoying. Thankfully her voice can be muted.

Oh, thank God for that... Having watched a 30 minute preview of the game on You Tube I found the game to look like tremendous fun but the voice acting was incredibly poor. Really surprised that it even got passed by any type of quality control.

@Harmunt: Pokemon anything not just games have never been known to have quality voice acting. It's not really all that important anyway, it's a fighting game not a Naughty Dog game, so they've gone cheap and given the option to turn it off. I'm OK with that.

actually it's pretty amazing how much money, time and effort nintendo put into growing pokemon and putting those "something like DLC" events everywhere across the globe. i missed plenty of stuff i was too young or far away for, that doesn't really make it backwards or unfair.

what's the basis for the idea "they've gone cheap" again? having an announcer you don't like..?

cheesy announcers make fighting games great.
