Namco unsure of Tekken characters in Super Smash Bros

Namco Bandai is unsure whether to include Tekken characters in the upcoming Super Smash Bros game.

It was recently confirmed that Namco Bandai would be bringing the game to the Wii U and 3DS.

Namco is the studio behind the Tekken franchise, so this opens up the opportunity for characters to be crossed over into Super Smash Bros.

Tekken producer Katsuhiro Harada was asked whether this was a possibility.

He told NowGamer: “That question was one of the most frequently asked questions we got when we announced the project. Especially from abroad.

“The fans, rather than asking about Tales or Gundam, or some of our other franchises, the fans abroad saw Tekken as one of the key words and took off on that. We’re not really sure at this moment but when thinking of the player base who is playing Smash Bros., maybe Tekken characters is something they wouldn’t want, so I’ve been pulling back on that a bit. But I don’t know.”
