Tekken X Street Fighter possibly making its appearance on next-gen consoles, reason for lack of details since initial announcement

A few years back when Street Fighter X Tekken was first announced, we heard that Namco would be making their own version of the cross over entitled Tekken X Street Fighter. Since then, very few details and little information has been divulged about the title.

Harada sent out a Tweet earlier this morning stating that they are "considering platform strategy" and because of that, Namco has not revealed much of anything about the game.

I said "under development" few days ago. We are changing & considering platform strategy. That's why we don't say anything.Thx RT@koalliance

Tekken X Street Fighter character polls will not determine final roster, will be point of reference for team

Tekken producer Katsuhiro Harada recently stated over Twitter that the results from the Tekken X Street Fighter character polls will not guarantee a spot in Namco's version of the upcoming cross over fighter.

According to Harada, there were some recent false reports claiming that this character poll would decide which characters showed up in the game.

Here's a bit of Harada's post.

Check out the full post here.

Voting for Tekken X Street Fighter's roster begins

Voting for Tekken X Street Fighter's roster has opened up on the official Tekken Facebook page. The Tekken page has 55 characters and the Street Fighter side has 66 people you can choose from.

You can vote for up to 5 characters on each side to appear in the upcoming title, created by Namco. There is a somewhat discouraging note attached to the page though, as they say this poll doesn't guarantee or determine which characters will be implemented into the game.

There are some interesting choices on the Street Fighter side of things, as Capt. Sawada, of Street Fighter The Movie fame, is an option. After you vote, you can look at the current results.
