Are people really mad about the fighting type thing? It's a Pokemon game, they should all be wacky non-humanoid bullshit monsters. Where's the bag of garbage?

This is where I stand with the roster. It's cool that we got Pikachu Libre, but the cost was too loving high.

Not really into fighting games outside of Smash but i'll love the hell out of seeing tournament streams of this!

Oh yeah, this game is gonna be available digitally too, but everyone should buy a physical copy since that's the only way to get the Shadow Mewtwo unlock card.

i'd prefer if everyone keeps their rear end flaps to themselves tyvm!

shadow mewtwo unlock card is just a temporary instant unlock, you can unlock him normally in any version of the game and you have to to get him permanently. i think its just through playing arcade mode or w/e

This game looks pretty cool but I heard reports that the framerate is not so good if you play two player locally?

There should be more characters in this game. They should have the Lucha Bird that every Goon likes. They Should have had Deoxys.

The only local, same-console multiplayer mode puts one person on the gamepad screen and the other on the TV and it cuts the framerate to 30FPS.

Yeah that is loving insane. I thought I might give the game a try especially since I could get a lot of local people interested, but to have 2 wii u's and 2 tv's to play it as intended is not acceptable.

What the hell.

I just bought a second Classic Controller Pro for this game, god damnit. I guess I should have double checked to make sure that the multiplayer mode wasn't insane first.

I think the gameplay doesn't look very interesting but I will still buy this day 1 and enjoy it. A thing to keep in mind is that the character select screen still has 4 empty character slots, so there's certainly going to be updates/dlc. Hell, there's already a v1.1 Update.

Re: bad local multiplayer, it makes some sense since in far-away mode the camera is third person and there are attacks and items spread around the ground. Having the wiiu pad as the second camera is the obvious solution, though that's probably what's causing limitations. Splitscreen may have worked, though it's hard to tell how well (I personally don't like splitscreen in fighting/mecha games.)
Still sucks.

Split screen in TYOOL 2016 shouldn't be much of a problem with the size TV's we have now, but it's still a archaic solution. :( Hyrule Warriors did a similar solution when using 2 players and I think it worked fine there too.

Most important to me - is there going to be a bunch of stupid poo poo to unlock, ala Tekken Tag Tournament 2 or Soul Calibur 5? It's a Namco fighting game, so I have hope.

As soon as they could get two writhing masses of cellshaded dogshit to at least mimic the suggestion of a scuffle of some sort - they launched that bad boy out the window and screamed SIXTY loving DOLLARS, PLEASE.
