CoroCoro has leaked Pokemon Rumble U. It uses figures to interact with the game. What do you think of this?

Heard about this too. I'm happy that Nintendo is finally taking advantage of the Wii U's NFC capabilities, and, seeing how cheap the figures are, if I got the game, I'd probably get the figures.

^ I agree, I've been waiting a while for Nintendo to actually use the Wii U's NFC reader. I think that they should take advantage of it even more because it's such a neat idea to incorporate a reader directly on the gamepad like that.

I don't like the Rumble games, but it seems cool.

Actually, Rumble will be just like Skylanders now. Even though I used to think Skylanders was "revolutionary" since it uses toys, I also think it has the same idea as Rumble in terms of gameplay where you run around with a few attacks and fight tons of enemies with your friends. Now that Rumble incorporates toys, it's a less expensive version of Skylanders that anyone can pick up a Wii Remote and have fun.

I still want a Drifloon or Espeon figure though. smilie

Serebii reports the downloadable game, called Pokémon Scramble U in Japan, is priced ¥1800 (around $19), while the individual figures cost ¥200 each (around $2), with six standard toys and one special toy to go on sale at launch - including a Pikachu one, of course.


If the figures really do sell for $2 each this will a must have for the Wii U.

^ That would be a really good deal if they're only that price where I live (in the US). Though, I think that they should be priced at $2.99 USD to no more than $4.99 USD.

It seems cool. But I think we have enough toy related games.

The previous Rumble game included like all of the Pokemon. It would like impossible to make 648 Pokemon toys for this game, especially for collectors.

Well, this one is gonna contain all the Pokemon. Whether or not there are figures for all, is a different matter. The figures are just optional (there's two version of that Pikachu figure, apparently. One being stronger and having a different ability.)

I'm sure they could do it if they really tried. If they had 5 factories that made a different Pokemon every day, then they could make them all in 130 days, which is less than 5 months. They could do it in giant waves like Skylanders did xD

I like collecting Pokemon figures, have been since I was little, so this is a pretty cool bonus for me.

Well, the stronger Pikachu is only available along with a code to download the game. So, a pretty decent bundle.

I think that $2 is amazing, if they'll have moves and data stored in them. Now I'm wondering how I could have possibly bought a single Skylander for over $10, let alone 21.

So the price be like ([Wii U copy price] + (Number of figures you want X 2$))

They have to program every character, don't they?

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.........
But that's the toys, they already have most of the game programmed if they used some parts from other Pokemon Rumble games.

There's also toy design, that'll take some time, and um...
Oh right, I think they have bits and pieces for conversion because I think Wii U's code is different from Wii. Really don't have any idea, but there's some stuff that'll slow it down. smilie

Yes, it's only for Wii U as only the Wii U gamepad has the NFC reader on it.

Nope, no catch! The figures are only optional. If you don't get them, you can still experience the full game. If you want them, get them! If not, you can leave them.

^Well, I think availability is just based on how many people want it. Not something that can be changed. I think that won't be an issue because it's optional and just a bonus. If they have figures for a few Pokemon, they'll probably be easy to find each one, and if they made figures for ALL of the Pokemon, Pokemon like Mew and Arceus would be extremely rare. If they made shinies, they would probably be made say, one out of 100 times.
