Pokken Tournament Controller for Wii U has been confirmed to be made available in the west. The official Amazon page started accepting preorders for the controller and the release date is published as March 18th. The exclusive controller is designed based on button layout of the Pokken Tournament arcade, that one can see in the Japanese arcades. The controller uses a USB port to attach to the Wii U console. The players who are interested in this remote can reserve theirs for $25. However, do note the special caveats that are a part of this exclusive controller. The first is that it can only be used for Pokken Tournament which means that you cannot use it outside of this game. The second thing that the users need to keep in mind is that for local matches, one would still have to use the Wii U GamePad due to the software requirement. Pokken Tournament is popular Pokemon fighting game produced by Bandai Namco similar to Tekken fighting game. The Wii U version will be available from Spring, reports High-Def Digest.

The players in North America will be able to buy the specialized controller that imitates the Pokeman fighting game. With the spring release of the game, the controllers are available for pre-order. According to the Amazon description, the controller will not support some other Wii U games for now. The design of the remote will enhance the genuine arcade experience for the users and is comfortable to use, reports Hardcore Gamers. Due to the game's popularity, Nintendo may introduce the bundle soon but for now, the users have to buy the controller separately.
