Tekken fans have asked the game’s producer Katsuhiro Harada to add a Waffle House stage, an American breakfast diner with a reputation for violence, to the fighting game.
Get ready for the next battle… at the Waffle House. For a while now, Tekken fans on social media have been pestering Katsuhiro Harada, longtime Tekken producer, to add a Waffle House battle stage. All the posts seemingly got to Harada, who finally asked, “Why?” The resulting thread on X was a neat bit of American / Japanese cultural exchange in which fans explained the deep lore of the Waffle House franchise and why it’d make for a fitting addition to the King of the Iron Fist Tournament.
In Harada’s X thread, one commenter explained the Waffle House phenomena quite succinctly: “Overworked and underpaid drunk Southerners with communication issues and insomnia consume fried sugary snacks in a confined space with bad lighting and uncomfortable seating attended to by questionable customer service reps with military grade combat skills.” A Waffle House is good for two things only: eating and fighting.
