Pokken Tournament Deals & Offers

Guess I'm going home tonight and giving my switch a wee hug :|

I was in the market for this game for a few months, was waiting for a deal under £30 and missed out on the Amazon glitch by an hour or so.... But Dragon Ball fighterZ comes out next month and i think I'll enjoy that more.

there's 1 digital code on ebay @for £25. I know it's from a guy making a quick buck on reselling the amazon code but it's still £8 cheaper than this & frankly much cheaper than any other version. + it's been there a while so he may accept an offer of a few £ less. that's actually how i got mine, i made an offer to someone & used an ebay discount code to bringit to just over £20. wont be for everyone & i know some people will be outraged at the idea of giving someone like that money. but someone might find it useful.

I left my DS and games on a train a few years ago, pretty sure the train staff nicked it at King's Cross. I feel your pain.

Got this last week with amazon offer for £12 and a few days later was playing football and stupidly left it in bag under seat and window was smashed took my whole switch with octopath zelda Mario kart and skyrim, cry with me guise

Switch carts allow claims for multiple systems (just once per account) if I am not mistaken - rather than a scratch card they used to do. Takes a while to add up from cart rewards...each gold coin is worth about 1p.

OOS

The few new games I've bought from them have all been sealed, fwiw.

Nice price! Thanks @A2V1990

Same here. I received an unsealed copy with a scratch on the cover. And I ordered from them a "new and unsealed" product.

Mine arrived an it clearly isn't new, but it's got no marks and is clean. It cost £30, which is less than other places charge for them used so I'm not fussed.

Yep I have just received my NEW ps4 game sealed, opened it to see old sticker marks and scratches on the case

check the price of this game now 😫 https://store.musicmagpie.co.uk/products/pokken-tournament-dx

DO NOT BUY "NEW" GAMES FROM MUSIC MAGPIE They are selling resealed games as new. I've ordered games for PS4 and Xbox and they were missing the security features (the Xbox sticker seal under the wrap and the Playstation branded tear strip) It's a complete scam. They are just resealing games in better condition so they can sell them with huge mark-up

Shame it's a terrible game (my opinion) but the price isn't bad. Just hate these sort of beat'em ups. Tekken and street fire were decent along with the classic mortal combat. But this twist felt clunky along with that super hero beat'em up (forgotten its name).

Got my copy. Thanks op.

Yeh gone :(

Damn think I missed it

Oos

This cart likely contains firmware v3.0 which can be used to upgrade from a lesser version, to allow the switch to be hacked. There is no shame in wanting to explore what your hardware can do. Google.

I've also owned this game for a couple of weeks now - it's fun with mates or playing online. If you want a fighter Pokemon meets Tekken style game. The game play is beautiful and not too challenging to pick up so great for people new to the game - accessible to kids and mates if couch gaming. Although it does struggle to hold any single player appeal - you fight through leagues in a kind of repetitive fashion, and there's no progression to unlock new characters (they're all accessible from the start or there's a couple of new characters have come out with paid DLC). This said, I still enjoy owning the game. It has a few quirks that make it unique like the supporting characters that assist you. But, I've got a bit of an attachment to it as I played it in one of Tokyo's huge arcades a year or two ago and I like that association.

Got me there, must think before I type!! I'll walk away and shut the door behind me.

I'm an old school street fighter 2 fan and this game revived the love I had for the fighter game. Both my Boys love it an I'm often steeling the joycons and battling them, Easy to play for beginners, superb graphics / annimations and gameplay.

oh I didn't know you could pirate games on the 2DS like you can on the DS, will have to have a look

In case people are wondering what the point of this is, it also has some use on the Wii U as a pad for virtual arcade games that don't need analogue support. The main reason I bought one though is it is one of the preferred pads for Retropie on the Raspberry Pi.

Decent for less than £20 - thanks for sharing (y)

Saying there is stock

I bought all of them! Boo ha ha ha ha! (strong)

Out of stock?

Out of stock already!?

Very highly recommend. A good price for a much unappreciated fighter. Polished with a marvelous learning curve.

Ordered. Thanks OP :D

Ok thanks for replying

not much single player content and its a port of a game thats a year old with a few more characters that should really be free since their included with the arcade version

If you like Pokemon and fighting games I say go for it, it's about as good as you can expect for Pokemon fighting game.

Thats interesting to hear, what makes you say that I'd be interested to hear because I'm having a hard time deciding wheter to buy or not. :/

It will work with any game on the Switch but only Pokken on the Wii U. Great for titles that are best played using a D-pad, I use it as an additional controller for Puyo Puyo & Bomberman.

Thanks OP. Grabbed one for my Retropie setup. Cheers.

I just can't grasp why it even exists. It's not like it's a game requiring a unique controller setup like Guitar Hero or something. Plus it's only for player two since player one has to use the Gamepad, which is really not designed for fighting games!

there's unsubstantiated rumour from previous posts (search - I'm lazy) about these working with other titles.

Seem to go for about £20 on ebay so reasonable price

Technically, it's Pokemon Tekken (Pok-ken), but yes - it's pretty much the case. Not that many fighters compared to Tekken, and less of a story behind it. Meant to have a good online presence though.

I'm wondering how much depth there is to this game? I played the demo really briefly so couldn't get the best impression. Is it just a Street Fighter/Tekken with Pokémon?

heat for the price due to the annoying switch tax on games, shame about the game,

Yeah, I'd rather Arms or Rabbids than this

Keep hoping that they bring a different switch game to their flash deals. Had this one the other day, still a good price though

Brilliant, thanks sneakyduck

that Clementine is gonna be the death of me

I literally ordered the game for £42 from Amazon Prime 🙈 What do you think I should do, could I give my son the game tomorrow from Amazon, order this and then return the delivery from Game Collection to Amazon? Thanks in advance

back in stock https://www.thegamecollection.net/pokken-tournament-dx-switch/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=newsletter&utm_campaign=2017-week-40&utm_source=The+Game+Collection+Newsletter&utm_campaign=a3865b288e-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2017_10_06&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_712656e1bc-a3865b288e-228104793

The one day I didn't check my emails (horror) Thanks anyway

Welsh dad's are the best

Yep it was unfortunately

Not really. The plus pad should be primary over the thumb stick, it being Nintendo's signature control. Instead they went with essentially an Xbox 360 controller.

Sorry I should have just linked it in the first place. It looks like it went out of stock since I bought it, I did pay £20 for everything included.

Have any idea if a 3rd party wiiu pro controller will work? Would prefer to know before picking one up!

It's a replica of the controller on the arcade machine in Japan which doesn't have analogues. It's only meant to emulate the feel of that release really.

Is this it? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MayFlash-PS-3-4-Xbox-360-One-Controller-Arcade-Stick-Adapter-for-Nintendo-Switch-/152698599785?epid=2157780925&hash=item238d8bb969:g:aboAAOSwDcpZtVOp

LOL yeah it's better to stay away from ranked matches if you don't know all the characters movesets at the very least. The people who play them generally know how to counter/avoid every move. Reacting to them and knowing how to avoid combos +juggles is incredibly important so getting good requires a lot of practice, I find it funner to play with friends & the occasional online fights since I can't invest that kind of time into a single game. Pokken is beginner friendly so you shouldn't have an issue constantly get beat, just most of the time. Stay away from walls is the only other info I can give you since I haven't played more than a couple of hours.

Absolutely 1000% agree! The face buttons have a wonderful almost click-like feel. I usually reach for this controller when playing snes (and sometimes Tekken 3!)

Paying 30quid for a limited controller which won't work for all games is nonsense

Whilst practicing jeez, I thought they only use arcade sticks, kinda feel better missing the deal now, thought it might make me better (lol) ive been owned many times online with mega combos and all aerial combos to, couldnt even get a move in, amazing people

Is it wishful thinking this would work on Pokken Wii U also?

Won't get to open my switch until Christmas so I'll save this for then , thanks OP

You've got a new item! :|

I thought id never stop getting shirts for a moment there

Saw Nintendo posting it earlier on their Twitter. :) https://twitter.com/NintendoUK/status/911236067193434113 The get deal button takes us to the wrong site. Edit - Had to remove the link as it done it again. It's the link in their tweet which I had posted but it takes me to the wrong place on HUKD

Thanks, where did you find this?

Not sure whether you guys are still trying to get it but finally did earlier by chance just 3 hours before it was due live. (mad)

Noticed the time had gone up, 77 hours to 96 hours :/ Shame they haven't kept the prices as low, Far Cry 5 went up a fiver without displaying a deal,. Good to know though cheers (y)

Guys just to let you know. Don't be getting up early for Mario. It's another 4 days now. They have fixed alot of the issues around the deals. Good news is the most popular games will be getting more stock as the deal goes live but with longer cycles in between, such as Mario Odyssey. So hopefully when it comes around we should all have a decent chance of snagging a copy.

I dont feel as bad now but I was fast n said sorry you had one deal in 24 hours i was like noooo you d*%* yeh 4 days n its same time again!! Not seen switch deal have they stopped!???

I thought might be easy considering the time, and then I go and sign into wrong email (lol)

@aventador1 feel the same considering cancelling my pre-order

Had a play of the demo and was pretty fun but get the feeling it can get boring pretty quickly

Yeh same here, I tried a few different games and wasn't workin, even added games from the list yesterday to get 25 off 150 and wouldn't let me, so gave up

Quite annoyed the code won't work with Mario, tried last week. I originally thought it wasn't on Switch games, then assumed it was because it's a pre-order but this deal disproves both of those.

Almost pre-ordered this yesterday, glad I waited. The boy will love this! Thank you.

Well you personally don't bother me by posting deals, but it is kind of irritating seeing none deals repeatedly in the hot tab just down to their popularity. Especially considering this code has already been made hot on another switch game. It's essentially the same deal. I mean there's been switch deals voted hot when it's just RRP... I was similarly annoyed when SSDs kept getting posted a ridiculous amount.

Thanks, ordered

Heat doesn't make me rich, make me famous or make me popular. I'm just helping other people out. When people search for this game it comes up so it's beneficial for people who come on the site and want to find a deal for this game. I don't see why it bothers you that I'm helping other people out

It seems like an easy way to get heat is to find a popular switch game and find a discount code from some website...

Sweet, Tesco are really good with pre-orders, they usually send items early. Hopefully they do it with this!
