Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Namco: Wii can't handle Tekken 6, PSP can.

@amparter: Why post lies instead of the real reasons? That's disrespectful to Wii owners and Nintendo themselves.

Besides they are maknig a PSP game and you don't see people calling it a turd, but everyone seems to be praising it. With a little effort Wii games can be grat, the sad thing is that devs are lazy and they lie to justify it.

The wii controller doesn't have the buttons to play tekken. It's fairly simple.

If the recession is so tough why not buy a $200 360 instead of a $250 Wii? $360 has tons of quality budget priced games too.

Why are you assuming my comment was about people who didn't own a Wii?

Just saying, since you want to bring in the recession because of a game costing a whopping $10 more. Plenty of money to be gained and ultimately saved by swapping your Wii for a 360 with you worrying about the recession and all and talking about how much of an issue it is becoming for people.

By the way, I am not saying you should trade in your Wii for an Arcade, just saying that for those here who are upset and really do actually care about Tekken would save a lot of money this way.

 

 

Try to get your head out the HD clouds and realize some people might like the Wii and their Wii games.

I own more Wii games than you do.

Then why don't you seem to understand my first reply?



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

So what? It's not the only control option.

@Garamond: Isn't it better they come out and say that, or maybe even say they believe their game won't be successful on the Wii, rather than saying Wii isn't capable when a much less capable console is getting it?

If that's all you're mad about I can entirely understand. I just think Namco isn't porting Tekken 6 to the Wii because they don't think the market is there.

Is no PS2 version either.  Clearly a case of the controls ;)

It's just that when I think of a watered-down port, it reminds me of the SNES/Genesis days where you got your Street Fighter II for home console but they paled in comparison to the Arcade version. In this case, though, those arcade versions would be available for purchase on the 360/PS3 and would retail at just $10 more. Considering they probably had to do very little to do in porting it over to the PS3 (since the PS3 is essentially the same architecture used in the arcade version), paying money to make a version of Tekken 6 that looks and plays worse to try and sell alongside arcade perfect versions just seems like a bad idea. Tekken 6 uses the Octave Engine and most other newer fighters people are clamoring for a Wii port of (like SFIV) use the Taito X2, which make it impossible to port those games over to the Wii and keep the game arcade perfect. I think this would be fine if the Wii version was the only one out, and I understand some people would be willing to accept an inferior version for their Wii, but I really think that's just a vocal but small part of the market. The Wii version basicaly alienates anybody serious about fighters since they wouldn't accept an imperfect port when they can get the arcade perfect PS3/360 versions. And most everybody with both a Wii and and 360 or PS3 would probably choose the PS3/360 version over the Wii since that they will look and play better, and most likely have superior online play. The market's that left is essentially Wii only owners that actually like 3D fighting games. Even if some of you guys may be a part of that demographic, I just don't think that's a big enough market for Namco to justify porting costs of a Wii version of Tekken 6.

japan has tekken 6 cabs all day all night



@animefobber: Opened your eyes about what? Wii owners? Just get out already. Your stupid arguement about standards is ridiculous and you are twisting things to support your arguement. Theres a fucking PSP version being made, what makes you think other people will not see it as inferior? Wii has to live up to its OWN STANDARDS not the ones set up by other consoles, this is why close minded people like you will never understand.

if you played tekken, you know buttom mashing agaisnt someone trained won't work, thats tekken main different with other fighting games.

wii doens't have should buttons but one Z button, and A B and dpad.

like a NES control but longer with a Z buttom.

and no you can't use the nunchuck for the same reason for fighting in joystick.

solution: bundle an arcade stick games which is not likely.

I meant something like a joystick. Or the Classic Controller.
