Since the producer for the Soulcalibur series (which also has a block button) is involved as a project lead? It's very possible that this game may use it, too. But if I were a betting man? I'd bet that they were going to go with something closer to how Smash handles such a thing. Smash has...

You should also follow the game's producer @Harada_Tekken. He may be willing to let a few details get out there. Like a few minutes ago: - https://twitter.com/Harada_TEKKEN/status/504671535391465472

Judging by the the early vid and pics, it doesn't seem to be following that closely to Tekken much at all. Lucario using Aura Sphere, here. If this was Tekken, this type of attack would either be close to useless or belong to an End Boss (re: Tekken 5's Jinpachi). Furthermore...

If anything, the name itself is just another hint that Namco (the makers of Tekken) themselves are involved with the project in some way, hence the particular/peculiar name. As if the deleted tweet from the producer of Soulcalibur that he made around the time of last year's Pokémon Game Show...

Well, the overall hinting from yesterday's briefing was that the NFC figure line was going to be something that may apply to several Nintendo games in the future. Pokkén itself may or may not be the flagship game that launches this thing, but I wouldn't be surprised if it supported it in some...

You're not wrong about the "Poké+Fist" part. But think about it, though. Why ELSE would they make for a fairly odd/distinctive name like "Pokkén", if it wasn't meant to draw an almost immediate correlation (for fighting game fans, at least) between itself and a certain famous fighting game...

Or maybe it might not be so much Nintendo's choice in the matter. Assuming Namco are the ones actually making the game (hence the Poké+Tekken=Pokkén name), the 3DS may not even be something they're considering for a game of this sort.

6AM. Anyway, I'm hoping that besides whatever XY info they want to share, this might be the most opportune time for them to talk a bit more about Pokkén Fighters. I'd like to think that if copyrights were filed over a year ago (and development on the game began at least around the same...

Good observations. Your NFC figure idea would definitely come into play if this is indeed a game where you could actually build-up "custom" versions of the in-game character that you could level up and customize with different move layouts and the like. The last time something of this was...

Well, from what little that we've been privy to know about the P1? It's not a "normal" Pokémon battle. It's 1 v. 1, where you pick that Fighting Pokemon and stick with them for the entire tournament. And it caters specifically to a certain type of Pokémon...not unlike what Sky Battles do. There...

There's one caveat to that, though. MvC, even though it uses 3D graphics, is still a 2D-style fighter. In other words, these types of things aren't so much of an issue because in a 2D game, it's just a matter of assigning a character a reasonable hitbox and balancing their style of play around a...

Well, there's two main reasons I could see them largely sticking with bipeds. For one, it should go without saying that for the sake of a fighting game (especially a 3D fighter, if indeed Namco or one of those studios on their payroll is behind this), fully-evolved bipeds that are around the...
