Tekken was one of the few original projects announced for Wii U back in June. Even so, development is still in a very early state.
Tekken producer Katushiro Harada recently said that “the core members aren’t really assigned” to the Wii U title just yet. An “advanced technology” group is, at the moment, “evaluating the hardware and the specs, and what would be necessary to create a Tekken” for the console.
“[Laughs] For Wii U, at the moment, the core members aren’t really assigned to that yet. We have a different group outside the Tekken Project within our company that works on advanced technology. So that section is currently evaluating the hardware and the specs, and what would be necessary to create a Tekken on [Wii U]. Once their evaluation and research is done, they’ll kick it to us and we’ll start laying out the specs for that. But we’re not at that point yet.”
