The arcade game versions have traditionally used PlayStation-based hardware to run the games. And subsequently, each installment was eventually made for its respective PlayStation.

The first game in the series, Tekken, was released in 1994, first in arcades and then as a port for the PlayStation. Two sequels, Tekken 2 and Tekken 3, were released in the same fashion in 1996 and 1998. Tekken 3 was also ported to the Game Boy Advance as Tekken Advance in 2001.

The next two sequels, Tekken 4 and Tekken 5, were also ported to the PlayStation 2 in 2002 and 2004, respectively, following their release in arcades. A PlayStation Portable and PlayStation 3 version of Tekken 5, retitled Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection, was released in 2006. An online version of Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection was also released in 2007 for the PlayStation Network.

Tekken 6 was originally released for arcades in 2007, followed by an updated version, Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion, in 2008. In 2009, the update was released for the PS3, PSP and Xbox 360 as Tekken 6. Tekken 6-based Tekken 3D: Prime Edition was released for the Nintendo 3DS in 2012.

Famous quotes containing the word games:

    The rules of drinking games are taken more serious than the rules of war.
    Chinese proverb.

    At the age of twelve I was finding the world too small: it appeared to me like a dull, trim back garden, in which only trivial games could be played.
    Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)

    In 1600 the specialization of games and pastimes did not extend beyond infancy; after the age of three or four it decreased and disappeared. From then on the child played the same games as the adult, either with other children or with adults. . . . Conversely, adults used to play games which today only children play.
    Philippe Ariés (20th century)
