Water Mage Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 http://www.destructoid.com/pokken-tournament-has-outsold-street-fighter-v-in-the-us-361534.phtml Pokken tournament has apparently outsold Street Fighter V. It's not really suprising. Not only Pokemon is very popular, a lot of fighting game experts say the game is actually deep. From what I've heard, Pokken has a mostly balanced rooster and it's easy to play. It's very well polished. Street Figher V, however, a lot of people said that's it feels unfinished.

JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 SF5 doesn't feel unfinished. Its flat out unfinished and released only for competitive crowd from what i heard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The DanMan Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 (edited) SF5 doesn't feel unfinished. Its flat out unfinished and released only for competitive crowd from what i heard And to top it off, it's been confirmed that the PS4 version has 8 frames of input lag. It also fell short of Capcom's sales projection; from a recent press release, they seem to now be fully aware that they kinda goofed.

Honey Bunny Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Despite not having played Pokken I'm going to venture a guess and say it doesn't crash every 15 minutes. I think that might contribute to it outselling a certain buggy 5th installment to a fighting game series. Call it a hunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikethfc Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 It's still on the first page so I thought this was worth a mention http://nintendonews.com/news/wii-u/possible-pokken-tournament-dlc-scizor-darkrai-empoleon/ I'm overwhelmingly disappointed with them, Scizoer over Scyther or Heracross, Darkrai in general, or Empoleon over Oshawatt, or anything from the Squirtle, Totodile, or Mudkip lines (excluding Marshtomp and Croconaw) Interesting news regardless, and hopefully if there is a fourth character they'd be more interesting for me.

Jedi Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 I like the choices of Scizor and Empoleon if they turn out to be true at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Water Mage Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 (edited) Darkrai has been revealed: Did anyone else got a Persona 4 vibe from Darkrai's Burst Attack? People haven't been talking much about this game these days... Hope this bring their interest back.

Dotty Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 I was really hoping it wouldn't end up being Darkrai, but at least this guarantees other new characters thanks to the roster screen now looking even more awkwardly empty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Water Mage Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 More Darkrai footage: Looks like Darkrai is a trap-based fighter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Darkrai is quite possibly the least fitting Pokemon they could have picked, but I suppose they had their reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honey Bunny Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 (edited) I really want to hate Darkrai, but I just can't. His fighting style looks so interesting. At first I thought "Oh look, Edgelord the pokemon got in" but then I saw the gameplay and that just sort of melted away. A trap based, tricksy fighter, that isn't all that aggressive, or fast isn't something you see all that often. Everything he does I could easily have seen for Sableye, but I understand why they'd choose Edgelord over him. They've already got a ghost type trickster with Chandelure, and a dark type gremlin with Weavile. He's very distinct amongst the cast. Just compare his general body shape to the other mon, none of them come even close. Edited July 17, 2016 by Honey Bunny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Ooh, I like those three as choices! Darkrai, Scizor, and Empoleon, I mean. They're all pretty cool. ^^ Though, Infernape is the most popular Sinnoh starter according to that poll from awhile back, so I'm surprised it wasn't picked instead. Even if it is Fire/Fighting like Blaziken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintessence Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Mostly because it would be redundant in their play styles, not because of types. For instance there are 3 fighting types so far but all 3 are different. Machamp grabs opponents, deals multiple punches etc., Lucario has projectiles with aura, the bone thing etc., Blaziken has chicken "wings" because brave bird, hard tackles, kicks and punches, and Infernape would be pretty much Blaziken to a lesser degree.

Honey Bunny Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 Huh, normally Scizor is shown as a sort of red ninja in the anime. They seem to be focusing on his game incarnation instead. He definitely is looking like a steel/bug type, and he looks like he's a very melee character. I didn't expect to be overly impressed, but he looks pretty cool.

Anacybele Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 FAV BUG TYPE YES. It's going to be DLC for the Wii U game, right? It's not just for the arcade version? xP I gotta have Scizor in my game, man! (it'll also give me a reason to pick it up again. I just lost interest for whatever reason).

DodgeDusk Posted October 16, 2016 Author Share Posted October 16, 2016 Scizor (and Darkrai) have only been announced for the Arcade version right now. Dataminers have found data relating to the two Pokémon and Empoleon in the Wii U version, so I imagine they'll be available for it at some point. Maybe when Empoleon gets announced.

Anacybele Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 They should be available at some point, at least, imo. It wouldn't be fair to Wii U version owners otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightchao42 Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 (edited) Maybe when Empoleon gets announced. About that... Granted, Empoleon will most likely get in anyway, but still. Edited November 1, 2016 by Lightchao42 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
