Pokken Tournament New Details and Mock Roster

With the recent announcement of the Tekken cross Pokemon collaboration title Pokken Tournament in the works by Bandai Namco, fans were left wondering which Pokemon would be included in the final roster. Since the announcement provided very little details, Game Director Katsuhiro Harada has taken to Twitter to reveal some more information about the game. A summary of these tweets is summed up below:

The arcade version might come to North America.
The roster will not be limited to just fighting type Pokemon.
Likewise, a Pokemon not having two legs will also not disqualify it from the roster.
Harada refused to comment on if a Pokemon’s typing will play a role in battle.
He also refused comment if their will be a team based aspect or simple 1 vs 1 matches.
The roster will not include any guest appearances from the Tekken Cast.
The game will not feature a high/mid/low guard system like Tekken and Soul Calibur. A new mechanic will replace this feature. We are guessing it will be more simple based on the general audience of the franchise.

Taking some of that information into account, we’ve compiled a list of what we think could be a likely roster for the eventual home release on the Wii U. Tekken 6 had a total of 43 characters in its final edition on home consoles, so we are going to limit this roster to 40 spots to give some leeway. Keep in mind this is simply a predicted roster and in no way indicative of the final character list that will be in the game when it releases in 2015. We based the list on diversity, popularity and how well they would fit into a Tekken game as well as Pokemon we just want to see in as playable.

1. Lucario (Confirmed)
2. Machamp (Confirmed)
3. Blaziken (Very likely as was featured in the first image seen of the game back in June)
4. Charizard
5. Pikachu
6. Arbok
7. Poliwrath
8. Alakazam
9. Gengar
10. Marowak
11. Hitmonlee
12. Hitmonchan
13. Scyther
14. Dragonite
15. Mewtwo
16. Feraligatr
17. Ariados
18. Sudowoodo
19. Heracross
20. Hitmontop
21. Gardevoir
22. Sceptile
23. Hariyama
24. Metagross
25. Infernape
26. Ambipom
27. Garchomp
28. Toxicroak
29. Magmortar
30. Electivire
31. Excadrill
32. Conkeldurr
33. Zoroark
34. Escavalier
35. Mienshao
36. Greninja
37. Diggersby
38. Aegislash
39. Tyrantrum
40. Hawlucha
Ditto (As the random select character that transforms into a random Pokemon at the start of the battle.)

Culling this list to 40 from the 719 Pokemon in the Pokedex was a big task so please look below for some very honorable mentions. Let us know if you think we’re spot on or way off with our predictions in the comments below and feel free to tell us which Pokemon you want to see the most or even drop your own mock roster if you’ve got some spare time on your hands. We look forward to reading them.

Honourable mentions go out to:

Venusaur
Blastoise
Raichu
Sandslash
Primeape
Typhlosion
Scizor
Mawile
Cacturn
Gallade
Weavile
Sawk
Throh
Lopunny
Bisharp

Hunter x Hunter manga hiatus extended an extra week

Recently the Hunter x Hunter manga has been suffering from quite a few delays. After taking a two year hiatus, Yoshihiro Togashi had returned to produce nine chapters of the manga and has since been on another hiatus due to back pain.

Initially the hiatus was only meant to last for two weeks but on the week he was meant to return, another two week hiatus was announced. This time in Jump’s 40th issue it was revealed that Hunter x Hunter would not be returning next week as expected and instead will be delayed one more week as Togashi is still in pain. This means that the manga will likely return in the 42nd issue in two weeks, unless another delay is revealed before then. It is also worth noting that these numerous hiatuses come on the heels of the announcement that the anime series would be ending on episode 148.

Today Ubisoft announced that Assassin’s Creed: Unity has been delayed two weeks worldwide. In a move that will probably confuse less informed gamers, or at least parents, Assassin’s Creed: Unity will now be released alongside Assassin’s Creed: Rogue in both North America and Europe.

Yes, Assassin’s Creed: Unity is now set to be released on November 11th in North America and November 13th in Europe. The reason that the company provided for the two week delay is to ensure that the game is able to meet fan and developer expectations once it is released and that these two weeks will make a “big difference.”

Disney Infinity 2.0 Adds Two Big Heroes to its Line-Up

Well there we have it, Disney‘s worst-kept secret has finally been unveiled. After much speculation, The House of Mouse today finally announced that the two lead characters from their upcoming animated, comic book adaptation; Big Hero 6 will be joining the rest of the cast in Disney Infinity 2.0: Marvel Super Heroes.

Hiro will make use of his mind-controlled nanobots to attack enemies and move objects, while Baymax makes use of his super strength, mad kung-fu skills and ability to fly.

Now I know you’re all asking: Where’s the reveal trailer!? Well as always you can check it out below! The Disney Infinity 2.0 roster seems to just keep growing and growing, but there are definitely more secrets and reveals to look forward to.

Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory II’s teaser trailer highlights Neptunia H

As we previously reported, Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory II will feature three different dimensions that players can travel between and each one will feature a unique story. Today Compile Heart released a new teaser trailer for their upcoming PlayStation 4 game and this trailer happens to focus on Heart Dimension Neptunia H: Trilogy Final Into the Legend.

It is worth noting that the trailer, found below, gives us very little information on Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory II but some of the words that appear on the screen include light, heart, friendship, “awaken from the nightmare,” and “center of the world.” The final message in the video reads roughly as “I will follow you anywhere if you wish for it… and then well will see the same dream.”

Resident Evil HD comparison screenshots released

As you may or may not have known, Capcom is planning on releasing a high-def version of the first Resident Evil, which was already given an upgrade back in the day. As such, today Capcom posted a few new screenshots of their Resident Evil REmake, some of which are standard HD screenshots while the real eye-catchers happen to be the comparison images.

As you can see below, these screenshots show a major improvement over the original, though it is worth noting that the blurriness of some of these screenshots might be due to the way that they were taken, unless my memory of the title somehow features a blur-reducer.
