The game is a lot of fun. Being able to fully control a Pokemon is what I have always wanted from Pokemon battles but there are not too many characters in the game. If you can get it on a decent discount, it is worth it.

I'm not a big, big fan of Pokemon and I wasn't terribly exposed to the genre while growing up. This game plays like a classic 3D fighter but with Pokemon in step with Pokemon Arena for N64 and is a lot of fun. I've really enjoyed it so far.

This is a great fighting game and a great Pokemon game addition. Addictive gameplay and to see Pokemon battling adds to the dream of controlling their every moves. Pokemon fans wont be disappointed, great game to add to the fighting genre.

I purchased this game at Best Buy because I have the Best Buy Gamer membership. I paid 30.00 for the membership at Christmas time and for one year I save 20% off all new games. I have saved so much with this membership. It has paid for itself many times over. It's linked to my phone number so I don't have to present a card or anything. I bought this game the day it was released. It wasn't on the sales floor and I had to ask for it at the service counter. They were very helpful and went to the store room and came out with the game. I have tried to get other games the day the are released and have never found them at Best buy on the day they were released. Now I know that if it's not on the sales floor go to customer service to ask. Today I bought another newly released game and again had to go ask at customer service.

The game is a lot of fun and is more in depth control wise than you would think. The only downside so far, is that there are not a lot of Pokemon characters playable. After the playable ones, there are a lot of assist Pokemon included, but more playable ones would be nice.

Excellent Projector (even with ambient light)

This projector has amazing picture quality with lights on or off. I have the projector (ceiling mount) set back 16 to 18 feet projecting onto a 144 inch screen. In Eco Color mode you can't hear the fan running at all and the picture is still good with HD sharpness. In the highest Dynamic Color mode you can hear the fan a bit but not noticeable if you have the sound turned up. This highest mode is great for lights on or dimmed viewing (my lighting is in-ceiling can lights). I have used the projector for movies, sports, cartoons, and Playstation 3 and it provides HD quality with no lag for all and is definitely equivalent to a flat screen TV in quality. The colors and vivid images this projector can provide have exceeded my expectations. Its been a great investment for the whole family!

I loveee Pokken tournament; It's easy to pickup and play, and there's a lot of depth to the fighting mechanics for those who seek it. Every character in the game is unique and feels distinct, even the two pikachu and mewtwo characters.

This is a pretty good fighting game, for what it is. My kids can win it playing it as a button masher, but if you want to get more in depth the system is there. Plus, who doesn't want to actually control the pokemon they've been fighting with all these years?

Pokken Tournament is a silly concept further made silly by the fighter roster, but it works. There is a surprising amount of depth to the gameplay mechanics and playing it is just fun. Definitely a good Wii U purchase even for people not into fighting games.

Looking for a different twist to your Pokémon battles? This game is what you need! Compete local or online in a refreshing spin on Pokémon. If you get the opportunity, make sure to grab the copy with the Shadow Mewtwo card.

Great game for those who want to experience what a real Pokémon battle would be. Not as a trainer but as the Pokémon itself! This game instantly became a favorite for every member in our home. Very well worth the $$$

If you're a pokemon fan, fighting game player or both, this is a game that you should try out. It's not a traditional fighting game but it actually can get pretty technical if you want to become a more advanced player.

It's a very well done system, if a bit hard learning and getting used to. It's much better in game balance after the patches that have been put in place. The roster of Pokémon isn't that vast, and it's weird switching between it's two fighting systems within a round. It is done well, and pretty good even for a player who's horrible at Tekken. While they do teach you in steps, it's easy to forget what they taught and how to implement those moves if you aren't used to fighting games.
I would advise caution going online, as most likely the people there will be people who are good at fighting games and will make it very hard for anyone still learning the ropes, or plays more casually.

This is a great game for kids and adults. It is like street fighter and mortal combat fused into a Pokemon. The graphics are excellent. The load time is short. The only thing I would like to see is more characters.

Great game with some new fighting mechanics that differ it from traditional fighters such as Tekken and Super Street Fighter. However the limited roster hinders it from being a standout fighter.

I love pokemon and played all the games when I was young. So when my nephew told me to buy this game for him I was excited. He loves this game and gets so excited to tell me about different pokemon he encountered.
