16. Pokkén Tournament

Out of every Nintendo franchise, Pokémon will always be the first to offer itself up for a good old crossover.

For example there's, Pokémon Mystery Dungeon, Pokémon Conquest, Pokémon Puzzle League, Pokémon Picross, and of course Pokkén Tournament, a crossover between Pokémon and the acclaimed fighting game series Tekken.

How this crossover works is Pokémon offers the world and characters whilst Tekken offers the gameplay.

You play as one of a few available Pokémon as you beat up your foes in Tekken combat. These characters are a great mix of fan-favourites like Pikachu, Gardevoir, and Mewtwo and Pokémon who are just screaming to be in a fighting game like Machamp.

Like many games on this system, Pokkén Tournament isn't exclusive to the Wii U, in fact, the Wii U isn't even where it originated from, it started as an arcade game before being ported to the console a year later.

But of course, most people who have played this played the Switch version called Pokkén Tournament DX which is currently the definitive way to play the game as it has additional characters and portability. Even the arcade version has more characters than the Wii U version. The Wii U can't have anything nice happen to it, can it?
