With Tekken 3D: Prime Edition released today in PAL territories, Nintendo Gamer caught up with the game’s director, Katsuhiro Harada, to talk about developing for the 3DS and Wii U consoles, and why Balloon Fight is his favourite Nintendo game.
Tekken 8 Interview - Tekken boss Katsuhiro Harada talks to MP1st about pluggers, adding the in-game shop post launch and more.
Everyone expected Sega to reveal a new Virtua Fighter title, namely VF6, during the 2023 The Game Awards, but that announcement revealed something else. One person in particular, who happens to be the head honcho behind the Tekken series, wants to know where Virtua Fighter 6 is.
"Sega has talked about rebooting old titles, but rebooting is difficult, it’s less likely to work,” said Aoki.
Bring back Yu Suzuki plz
Yu Suzuki time is up. He's a dinosaur. He was great back in the days, but he's way too old school and that doesn't work in modern gaming. Look at his last two games.
Even if you consider his last two games below par look at how many below par AAA games are being churned out by modern developers all year round. The video game landscape is still being dominated by these "dinosaurs'. Miyamoto, Kojima, Harada, to name a few. To me they know more what gaming is about than wanting to empty people's wallets.
Modern gaming barley works in modern gaming trend chasing is a huge element of modern gaming company A sees huge success with game X then everyone wants to make their own version they sink years into it and fail when battle Royale fever gripped everyone how many failures did we see I lost count or when every company had to have a mmorpg after wow struck gold or a looter shooter after borderlands
Sometimes having someone think differently to how the hivemind of modern gaming works is a good thing
I want the Arcade Mode like the PS3 version had. You could earn all the unlockables through it, it was brilliant and lengthy! Then they did Virtua Fighter 5 Showdown which went to micro transactions and removed that mode. Lame.... It had online mode, which the PS3 version didn't have, but I'd rather have that Arcade Mode than the online the 360 and subsequent consoles has gotten.
So, thanks for advocating for us, yeah, Virtua Fighter 6 and Virtual-On as well. Cool to see the fighting development community as fans of each other. Will be getting Tekken 8 as well
We will see one in five years. Wait I dont want to wait 5 or 10 years. They should already be working on it right now to release in two years
Watch the electric interview with Kastuhiro Harada – Director on the Tekken Project and Michael Murray – Producer on the Tekken Project to learn more about Arcade Quest mode and much more!
Makes sense. We didn't know the Wii could do online like in Mario Kart and Monster Hunter. We didn't know the GCN could run a game like Resident Evil 4. We didn't know the N64 could render Conker's Bad Fur Day. Nintendo always leaves surprises to be discovered.
Convincing the crowds of gamers who've overlooked Nintendo for the past two generations (Gamecube, Wii), will be something thrilling to witness.
Hmmm research phase of WiiU capabilities... not good.
Nintendo promised Tekken at last year's E3! I realize that the actual game was not running on a WiiU, but still... you showed it!
Man I hope Harada is suffering from amnesia right now, because I really had my hopes up for WiiU Tekken.
