Pokémon? In MY Tecmo Koei Game?!
It’s more likely than you think. Actually, it’s going to happen. Nintendo is teaming up with Tecmo Koei to make a crossover between Pokémon and Nobunaga’s Ambition. Yes, this is actually happening. The game will consist of a warrior bonding with a Pokemon and battling to help unify Japan. If there’s anything epically weirder than this, then I don’t know what it is. Samurai and Pokémon? It’s like nuts and gum– together at last. And this will be coming out for the DS, though there’s no set date just yet. Consider me sold!
