NorthWest Majors 6 | US Fighting Game Tournament in Seattle, WA on May 3 - 4

NWM 6 is Seattle’s next big fighting game tournament and has somehow managed to get Jimmy and Bronson to travel for it. They’re not the only out of state competitors coming though, Just Frame James and Inkognito are also coming to the event as detailed and introduced on the tournament’s website. More details and registration on the event can be found on the website and I’m assuming that the tournament is going to be streamed on TeamKhaos’ Twitch channel.

Yamasa Pachi-slot Tekken 3rd Teaser PV

Tekken is getting a new Pachi-slot machine. Again. This time it's based on more of the content you see in Tekken Tag Tournament 2 and thankfully it doesn't introduce any new and weird character designs like Mecha-Heihachi, Goblin Ogre or that Devil Kazuya. Mainly because people wouldn't stop begging for them on twitter to Harada. The Pachi-slot machine is set for release on the 6th of July while there is to be a large exhibition for it next month on the 21st of May. Japanese title of the thing is: '山佐 パチスロ 鉄拳3rd' if you're interested and the teaser PV is courtesy of pipocom1's YouTube channel.

Backdash Cancelling to be made easier in future Tekken Games

Yes. RT @TekkenArgentina Backdash cancelling is too hard. Will you make it easier in future Tekken games?

Probably the most blunt answer that you can get out of this topic. No specifics on how this will be achieved but it's something to look forward to in future Tekken games.

TEKKEN MURA - New Tekken Resource Ran By Help Me

TEKKEN MURA or 'Tekken Village' as it is in English is a new website dedicated to Tekken that is being run by Help Me. Help Me knows quite a bit of Japanese so it seems that this is an attempt to bring news on the Korean Tekken scene to the Japanese one and vice versa. The site just recently opened so it's not that full of features but you can see some early plans like a regular 'Nin Column,' player interviews, frame data pages, Live Tekken streams alert, character discussion pages and some more coming soon. Check back on it (If you can read it) in the future for some news and updates.
