So Pokkén Tournament is the latest Pokémon game to be announced. Set for 2015, it's an Arcade game that combines Pokémon with Namco Bandai's style of fighting games Tekken and Soul Calibur.

Is anyone excited for this? Being a Pokémon AND a Tekken fan, I was pretty much hysterical over this, until I found out it's for Japanese arcades only '-' So I hope they have plans for a console international release or something.

I was hoping the announcement was for Pokémon Stadium 3 on the Wii but oh well.

PS: If anyone watched the livestream and wants to add information, please do. The above was all I could pick up from it.

I'm so excited! ANYTHING to do with Pokemon makes me happy. I've never heard of Tekken before, but I've done a little research and it looks amazing. I also hope they bring it over to the states so I can get my hands on it.

I think they'll release it for WiiU eventually. After all, most Tekken games start out in Japanese arcades. Guess they'll see how popular it is first before deciding if they'll release it outside of Japan.

I guess that's what they did with Tomodachi life? When they showed the Japanese trailers for it, a lot of westerners called for versions outside Japan. I guess if enough people voice their opinions about it they might release it elsewhere. Harada always listens to his fans and recently Nintendo has been doing a lot of work with Namco so they might be persuaded.

I love both game series to bits, so I'd love to see this game outside Japan c:
