E3 2012 Media | Fight Twice as Big with Snoop Dogg in Tekken Tag Tournament 2

Tekken Tag Tournmanet 2 heads to Wii U, but with some Mario mushroomy goodness thrown in!

A brief clip of the next Tekken game was shown at Nintendo's E3 press conference today, and it looks like there'll be some interesting elements making their way into the game. A bird handed a Mega Mushroom to Heihachi, turning him into a giant after grabbing it, which gave him the power to make his opponent smaller when he hit him. Perhaps more Mario or Nintendo-related items that dish out new mechanics will be revealed eventually, too?

In some quite unexpected news, also, American rapper Snoop Dogg is getting his very own stage in the game. A trailer released by Namco Bandai today shows the hip hop singer chilling in a chair with some girls either side as fighters duke it out in a bling-filled arena in front of him. The trailer doesn't mention the Wii U, but it's likely this will still be in the next Nintendo console's version, as well as the PS3 and Xbox 360 games. Have a look at the trailer below.

Additionally, see the first official screenshot of the Wii U game released by Namco Bandai today.
