About this deal
This deal is expired. Here are some options that might interest you:
Not sure how folk feel about this. The controller can only be used with the Pokken game. Cheapest I could find - £19.99 seems the norm

sorted byGet a Pro Controller. works on everything, has a stupidly long battery life and sits nicely in the hand
I know! I find it mind boggling! Choice is always good I guess. I have ordered this for now while I have a think about whether I really want it.
I only have the game pad at the moment and am trying to figure out what controller combos will be best for me. Choice is actually making my brain hurt.
Yeah the pro controllers are great, but only the official gamepads and not those cheap ones from eBay!
Its an even bigger shame it only works player 2 side too
Damn, really? Don't want my son playing fighting games just yet so it's for me playing solo.
Cheers to you both for confirming the pro is a good buy. Need to find a good deal for one now
Yeah, and whoever you play will always think you have an advantage. Sore losers.. Lol
The WUPC controllers aren't that hard to come by for £22 if you have someone living/middleman in Portugal or Spain as they're pretty affordable there. It's how I got mine.
I'll be using my ever-lasting WUPC controller since I don't really dig the design of the Pokken controller and the lack of analogue stick is a deal breaker for me. The game isn't going to be just a Tekken clone but its own game in that you don't just side-step.
The controller itself is quite, uh, bland looking. Just white, basically.
For a Pokkén controller Hori really could have made it Pokémon'd.
EDIT: The home version will be shrunk as it looks like:

Would this be from a local retail store, or online?
Nintendo earns money.
Oh you mean for the buyer? **** all
You can.....if use a LAN Cable to link two Wii Us, then use the second controller on the second Wii U where the game will run at 60fps, Yay...
Wouldn't really praise that to be something great. WUPC is the ideal controller for gaming on Wii U, except games that unnecessarily restrict to the GamePad or Wiimote (Mario Party 10, Mario & Sonic 2014).
The retailer is FNAC - fnac.pt/Wii…350 but then you would need to know of someone within said country that could buy and send it. I admittedly did offer to do this once but no one was interested.
In the words of Hori's PR: "It's the proper way of playing Pokken Tournament". Don't really see what's the big deal, especially with the lack of a left analogue stick.
Kinda. At the very least it's also playable with retro games that don't require too many buttons.

Re controllers: I really hate all the Wii controllers, they all feel so cheap compared to the Gamepad, and what Sony and Microsoft have this generation.
So you're basically paying £50 (unless Amazon reduces the price of the game/controller). I'm hoping Amazon reduces because I've just got £11 left of the Pokken game order and it's paid off.
Did not know about the limitations that others have posted, shocking really. Am not against single game controllers, got the paintbrush one for Epic Mickey 2 and it can add to the game if done right.
HEAT for the price
That sounds very good, how did you manage that?
- Leftover Amazon credit of my £30 + £7 order from Twilight Princess HD Special Edition
- Price difference refund from Minecraft Story Mode Xbox 360
- TopCashBack money to Amazon credit/voucher
Btw, am considering to pre-order the Hori Pokken controller the more I think about it for retro gaming.
