Harada’s team has been busy researching Wii U’s capabilities

Tekken series producer Katsuhiro Harada isn’t sure about which Wii U feature he’s most looking forward to working with. That’s because he (along with his team) has been “in the research phase” of investigating the console’s hardware.

Harada told Nintendo Gamer in its February issue:

“We’re still in the research phase of the capabilities of the hardware so we’re not sure about which aspect is really going to stand out. We probably won’t understand that fully until some time next year.”

Keep in mind that this interview was conducted in late 2011. I’m sure Harada’s team has made some progress on Wii U since then. I wonder if he’s still working on that new Tekken project for the system…
