Bandai Namco spokeswoman Miki Baba told Mainichi that, although it's been confirmed that Tekken 6 will utilize the Cell, they still have not made a definite decision regarding their future arcade hardware. Namco has used arcade technology based on PS2 architecture in the past, but the company is still uncertain as to whether they should base future arcade hardware on Cell-based technology.

The first arcade game to feature the Cell chip technology will be Tekken 6, the latest in its popular fighting franchise, due later this year.

not surprising since the original Tekken brought PlayStation1 tech into the arcades
