Its basically Street Fighter 5 content wise, though Nintendo die hard fans wont agree to this for obvious reasons but as I said the game isnt bad and its one of my favorite fighting game so far. There’s more coverage from today’s Nintendo Direct coming up, so stay tuned. Of course Pokken Tournament has more better surrounding and the detail is astonishing compared to the anime styled Storm 4 but it still feels lackluster. Pokken Tournament DX is out on the Nintendo Switch on September 22, so only a few more months left to go. For now, though, Pokken Tournament DX should be suitable for those looking to play a Pokemon game of any kind on the Switch. We’ll just have to wait and see what Nintendo decides to do with the Pokemon series when the 3DS has completely run its course. When we consider how old the 3DS is these days, you’d think that it’ll have to happen eventually, but apparently Nintendo thinks that the 3DS has enough life left to keep the mainline Pokemon games exclusive to it for now. Though it’s nice to see a game like Pokken Tournament getting a chance at a second life on the Switch, it is just a tad disappointing that Nintendo still seems hesitant to commit the mainline Pokemon series to its new console. The inclusion of these five characters brings the roster up to a total of 21. The new Pokemon joining the previous roster of 16 are Darkrai, Scizor, Empoleon, Croagunk, and Decidueye, who will be the sole representative from Pokemon Sun and Moon. The Switch version of Pokken Tournament will also add five new fighters to the roster. It seems that the core Pokken Tournament experience will remain unchanged, though some of the features Ishihara chose to highlight included new 3 vs 3 team battles, online ranked battles, and friend battles, which are unranked. Though our look at the game was rather brief, Pokemon Company CEO Tsunekazu Ishihara did give us a good idea of what to expect.
