this. if the wii U version of tekken is not to par, then many nintendo fans, apart from nintendo tekken fans no one will care.

It was ARIKA that made Tekken on 3DS, and are probably the ones making the Wii U version, too. Y'know what, forget the Tekken franchise, ARIKA, make a unique fighting game that's Nintendo-only and cut the ties with those corrupt third parties that still value the playstation brand.

this would never happen but it would be good to see nintendo make their own fighting game or buy the rights to killer instinct from rare. because rare doesn't seem to care about it.
