Is pokken actually a cross between tekken and pokemon? If so that's really cool. I always just thought it was pokemon fighters.

You people find the smallest details ever.

For god's sake, no one wants their game to have small pox being mentioned all around it.

Customer: Hey, can you help me?
Cashier: Sure, what do you need?

I remember when a game called "Vixen" was renamed to "She-Fox" on Germany.

Now that was funny, this thread is just poor.

“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

"Pokken" has always sounded fuckin stupid. Pokemon Tournament would have obviously been the best title to go with.

Well if there is another meaning behind the name Pokken in a different language, it's for the better to change it then

Should have kept the title. Smallpox is hardcore. Killed more people in the 20th century alone than all that century's wars combined. It's probably the most dangerous pathogen on the planet right now. Think of all the hardcore cred they would have gotten.
