    As a veteran tekken player (Since tekken 2) i can say without doubt that this is one of the best tekken games ever (top 3). The gameplay is the best in the series. There are tons of characters (trust me, this is very important), and the graphics are great. The real gem here is the multiplayer. It is very addicting and fun to go up the rankings and receive cool nicknames and other stuff. The ranking system makes sure you always play against players on your level (if you want to) and The characters are well balanced (though not perfectly). As for the wii u mechanics, It is alot of fun to play this game on the gamepad, in bed for instance. Very recommended!… Expand

    Tekken Tag 2 wii u edition is pretty decent fighting game I've always wanted to play! I play Tekken on arcades and ps1. Tekken Ball is very insane! I love the Nintendo exclusive outfits for Tekken characters like Mario, Luigi, Samus, Zelda, Link, and more! Any Nintendo or Tekken fans will recommend this game. If you own a ps3/360 game, sounds like if you want to?

    Being that this was my first Tekken game, I thought it was just going to be Soulcalibur with fists instead of swords. Turns out it's a lot more that that. From the great graphics, many colorful characters, and powerhouse fighting, there's never a dull moment in this game. Whle the Nintendo outfits are hit or miss, the news modes like Mushroom Battle are good fun if you get a second player in on them. The only complaint I have lies in the controls as they take a while to get used to if you're brand new to the series, especially the blocking. Otherwise, go grab it. It's worth your time to the fullest extent.… Expand

    Get ready for the next review! (sorry I couldn't help but go there) Tekken appears on a Nintendo console for the first time and it is epic. The gamepad isn't used very well but the Nintendo themed bonus content and inclusion of the other versions dlc make this the best version of the game and if you have the choice, definitely get on Wii U as it's the one that gets the most bang for your buck.

    I'm no expert in Tekken games, but this game is so mesmerisingly beautiful that expertise won't even be an issue. The standards such as Arcade and Team Battle are mechanically crisp, and will provide entertainment for countless hours whether you're going solo or in versus mode with friends. But what separates this version from the others is, of course, the Nintendo-based content. The various kinds of Mushroom Battles are mainly for giggles and are purely for fun - great for battles with friends. Each of the fighters also have costumes pertaining to a certain Nintendo character, such as the hilarious Peach-dress on Panda. Because the fighters in the game are generally quite serious in attitude, it's quite funny to see them being serious while being ridiculously dressed. Pleasing aesthetics with beautiful mechanics makes this a brilliant game to play.… Collapse

    Tekken Tag Tournament 2 Wii U Edition is a great fighting game. This version is as great as the others, and the nice extras are good enough to grant fun and laughters. If you're looking for a good fighting game for the new Nintendo console, this is your best choice.

    Despite some minor technical issues and a forgettable use of the Gamepad, TTT2 Wii U Edition holds up to the challenge thanks to the same great production value we've come to know and the additional content packed in directly from the start.

    The best technical fighting game on a Ninty home console since the days of the SNES. [Feb 2013, p.76]
