Tekken Tag Tournament 2 arcade bound

"And now for the bad news: Tekken Tag Tournament is confirmed for release only in arcades, and only in Japan". I'm so looking forward to my game console. Please make this game for the PC thanks.

I'm fly to Japan. I'm still playing Bushido Blade on the PS one!

Only in Japan? Rats...

@supersonikk I've never noticed that. But oh well.

THIS IS WHAT IVE BEEN WAITING FOR!!!

I mean tag tournament

loved tekken 1. hope 2 is as good as 1 (or better would be nice...)

An offline coop scenario campaign would be good for this :) was it shame it wasn't in tekken 6. Can't wait for this to hit consoles

@supersonikk Comparing a RPG full of VA and cutscnes to a fighting game? The previous Tekken games are on the weakest console graphically of last gen, PS2, and did not affect their gameplay at all. The 360 did no hold back Street Fighter 4, Soul Calibur 4, Blazblue, Virtua Fighter 5 etc at all, so what makes you think that Tekken would be affected? Unless you're a fanboy, there is nothing wrong with bringing Tekken to a wider audience.

@PurpuhlRowboht The scale of Final Fantasy XIII was cut down so that the Xbox 360 port was not inferior (although it was on 3 discs). I'm just saying I think the same thing happened to Tekken 6 and I'd hate to see the same thing happen to Tekken Tag 2 - I want it to be as good as a Tekken game can possibly get with the technology available.

sounds good, please bring it to console, i wanna play it

i hate listening to japaneese translators

Hopefully it will come to the US soon after.

@jamestillett don't worry. Namco will come to their senses soon enough.

who has two thumbs and will still be in japan next year when this comes out........this guy.

lets all hope & pray that this will be ported to consoles even if it only comes as a download please please pretty please Namco make us all happy say you will port it to console

i really like itt

please add this time TRUE OGRE plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

please add the charcater true-ogre this time plzzzzzzzzzz

Could you imange the Number of complaints Namco would get if they did not do a console version the Tekken Franchise would never be the same again

i dont know why tekken tag dont give that much excitement ?? Tekken 6 was great and the roster was huge...so what's the purpose of 2 players beside each other

looks good...

I liked the first Tag Tournament. Hope it comes to consoles.

itchyflop@ really?! Do you know how long it takes to make a new gaming engine, and if it hits consoles they have to make it work for both systems!

Hey, I wonder if all the customization will remain. And perhaps some new minigames.

Yes, looks a lot like TEKKEN 6.

as you well know considering the tekken time line release they always release an arcade first before announcing a console verison. so after this game comes out sometime next year then a year or so after that they will release a console. but now this is my question to harada if tekken 7 is already in the works then there should be an announce date some time next year as well considering the tekken line. character wise michelle coming to tekken tag 2 is completely pointless considering that julia and michelle looks the same and have the same move list. Jun i would say yes if they change her move list cause asuka and jun do have identical move list. gon probably not cosidering he is a comic book character namco would have to relicense him but i am pretty sure that they will unviel it in the near future. gameplay probably the same as br with minor changes since harada said in a interview that they are using the same engine as tekken 6 br which is the ps3 based system.

Nice!!

you guys stop bashing! this is work in progress! and they are using a new graphic engine according to Harada san. he said now they can draw 4 characters in one screen.(twitter) it is gonna be awesome ;) he also said the still dunno which console will have it, but they want all the fans to have it :D so i guess it'll come for both PS3 and 360, maybe sometime PSP.

it will be released on consoles but only after a lonngg longgg wait....sux eh

it better be coming to ps3

it needs to be better than the last, i feel a new engine is needed!! not that the last was bad just like the rest!!

it'll prolly make its way to consoles or namco's gettin hell and loosing a ton of cash...

Punch-juggle, dail-a-combo, low ploygon count, Gen Wii gaming. Leave it in the back corner of some dingy Japanese arcade for all I care...

raza3 oh yeah Gon was cool lol and I'm "meh" with Jinpanchi lol

people still have acrades?

They should release it for Xbox 360 or PS3.

DBZMaster55 in Japan they do. And Tekken's probably the most popular fighter in japanese arcades. I think it's good it debuts in arcades, cause the 1st release is usually broken (look at original t6, balance was simply not there).

@DBZMaster55 Arcades never died in Japan the way they did in the rest of the world. They're still just as popular over there, if not even more.

Why are they releasing it for Arcade do people even still play arcades?!

regix416_basic lol XD Tekken copying doa, now that's interesting, cause the last time I checked tekken was already declared one of the best, if not the best fighter ever made before doa was even born. Itagaki slapped bewbs and explosions on VF and believed he made the best fighting game ever. I'll always be grateful for Ninja Gaiden, but doa was and still is nothing special.

unknown better be the boss again, or this will be ultimate fail xD.

DoA is a joke. Look at the high profile international competitive venues right now. Tekken is on MLG, WCG, and EVO2k. Where is DoA? DoA is for people who don't have the aptitude to play Virtua Fighter and had to find something "lite". You lose.

another tekken tag game woohoo

Oh man, I almost forgot about 'Tekken tag'.

@GrandTheftDog Dude u got to be kidding me Tekken Rapes Streettfighter. Streetfighter is more cartooney and not serious plus it's not even in full 3D in my eyes Streetfighter can't compare.

about goddamn time, it makes me wondered why they never brought this back after 3. anyhow was a big fan of 2 but ever game after has been meh.

SICK! Too bad this won't come out for consoles until Q3/Q4 2012...and that's Japan. It probably won't hit the USA till much later :/

Heh... I do have to agree with ThirteenChords has it right. DOA is the juggling. Anything else wishes it could. All of Tekken's attempts to copy it have ended up with... strange results.

Actually everyone, it's all about Dead Or Alive.
