Tekken 3D: Prime Edition: The Ultimate Portable Tekken Experience
Released in 2012 for the Nintendo 3DS, Tekken 3D: Prime Edition is the definitive portable Tekken experience. It combines a fully featured fighting game with a full-length 3D movie, Tekken: Blood Vengeance, onto a single game card. With over 40 fighters, including Young Heihachi making his debut, and a variety of modes and features, Tekken 3D: Prime Edition is a must-have for any Tekken fan.
Gameplay
Tekken 3D: Prime Edition features the same core gameplay as the console versions of Tekken, with a few minor tweaks to accommodate the 3DS’s unique control scheme. The game features a large roster of over 40 fighters, each with their own unique fighting styles and moves. Players can battle against the AI, other players locally or online, or take on a variety of challenges in the game’s single-player modes.
One of the most notable features of Tekken 3D: Prime Edition is its use of the 3DS’s stereoscopic 3D capabilities. The game’s graphics are rendered in full 3D, and the 3D effect adds a new level of depth and immersion to the gameplay. Players can also use the 3DS’s motion controls to perform certain moves, such as sidestepping and parrying.
Modes
Tekken 3D: Prime Edition features a variety of modes to keep players entertained. The Arcade mode is the game’s main single-player mode, where players can battle against a series of AI opponents to earn rewards and unlock new content. The Versus mode allows players to battle against each other locally or online. The Training mode allows players to practice their combos and moves against a stationary opponent.
In addition to these standard modes, Tekken 3D: Prime Edition also features a number of unique modes. The Tekken Dojo mode is a tutorial mode that teaches players the basics of Tekken gameplay. The Ghost Battle mode allows players to battle against the ghosts of other players’ online matches. The Scenario Campaign mode is a story-driven mode that follows the events of Tekken: Blood Vengeance.
Tekken: Blood Vengeance
In addition to the fighting game, Tekken 3D: Prime Edition also includes a full-length 3D movie, Tekken: Blood Vengeance. The movie is produced by Digital Frontier, the same studio that produced the CGI cutscenes for the Tekken games. The movie tells the story of Xiaoyu Ling and Alisa Bosconovitch as they investigate a mysterious organization known as the Mishima Zaibatsu.
Tekken: Blood Vengeance is a visually stunning movie that features all of the action and excitement that fans have come to expect from the Tekken series. The movie’s story is also well-written and engaging, and it provides a great way to experience the world of Tekken outside of the fighting game.
Overall
Tekken 3D: Prime Edition is the ultimate portable Tekken experience. It combines a fully featured fighting game with a full-length 3D movie, and it offers a variety of modes and features to keep players entertained. Whether you’re a longtime Tekken fan or a newcomer to the series, Tekken 3D: Prime Edition is a must-have for your Nintendo 3DS.
