From db-z.com:
Dragon Ball Project Fusion - s'il s'agit bien du nom définitif - est le prochain jeu vidéo Dragon ball édité par Bandai Namco Entertainment annoncé sur Nintendo 3DS dans le tout nouveau numéro du magazine japonais V-JUMP du mois ! Il 'agira d'un RPG, et c'est tout ce que l'on sait pour l'instant.
La page du V-Jump titre seulement "Lancement du Dragon Ball Project Fusion !!!", sans en dire davantage. On a toutefois droit à une date de sortie confirmée pour 2016, et à première image de la fusion inédite entre Goku et Broly, ce qui suggère déjà que ce jeu risque de nous offrir une belle part de WTF, et on est très impatient de voir ça !
Translation:
Dragon Ball Project Fusion - the name is definitive- is the next video game getting released by Bandai Namco Entertainement, announced for the Nintendo 3DS in the newest V-Jump issue this month!
It will be an RPG, and that's all we know right now.
The page in V-Jump only mentioned "Release of Dragon Ball Project Fusion!!!" without saying more. We do however get a release date confirmed for 2016 and the first image of the never seen before fusion between Goku and Broly, which suggests that this game might offer a pretty big part of "WTF"'s, something we're very impatient to see!

...I really hope this is legit just because of the insanity that might come out from it, not to mention it being described as an RPG. Please let this be legit.

A new RPG? Yay!
Dragon Ball Heroes-esque garbage? Oh, Kami, no.

What would you call him anyway? Kakarolli? Brokû?
I vote for Broku solely because of all the 'Bro!' memes that would no doubt erupt.
Hmm...what about Brokarot? Ooh, wait a minute...I swear to god if this game comes out with a crapton of fantasy fusions, but DOESN'T give us Pikillin at long last, I will be disappoint.

Saying "Goly" out loud as a character name just made me laugh 100x harder, so that's where my favor is.

What's wrong with the Heroes esque idea?
It's basically officially sponsored fanfiction without a plot. That's the worst fanfiction.

Sweet and RPG title. I hope it's a good one. I love me a fun RPG. Will it be like Legacy of Goku? Attack of the Saiyans? Something else? I'm pretty excited actually cause I do like the RPG genre. Also Broku?.....oh I hope that's what he's called. Goly is also funny, but Broku opens up to so much Bro jokes. Please be Broku. I also hope this game is entirely what if.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!
Spoiler:
Doctor. wrote:I've explained before, I'll just paraphrase myself.
Power levels establish tension and drama. People who care about them (well, people who care about them in a narrative) don't care about the big numbers or the fancy explosions. If you have character A who's so much above character B, who's the main character, you're gonna be left wondering how in the hell character B, the character we're supposed to care and root for, is going to escape the situation or overcome the odds. It makes us emotionally invested.
If character B doesn't escape the situation in a believable way that's consistent with previous events, then that emotional investment is gone. It was pointless tension, pointless drama made just to suck in the viewer. It has no critical value whatsoever. The audience is left believing that the author can just create whatever scenarios he wants and what happens to the characters is decided by whatever the author wants to happen, regardless of the events that happened in the story. Which, in fairness, is what happens, but the audience wants to be fooled. The audience wants to know that the world they're following has rules. That the world they're invested in isn't going to bend to external factors that are irrelevant to them.
An author can do whatever he wants with the characters, that's not false. But the author should also have the responsibility to make sure it fits in cohesively with the other events in the narrative he has created.

I still haven’t lived down going, “Who the heck is Tao Pai-pai?” that one time I was talking with Ei’ichiro Oda-kun. But the fact that there are still people reading the series after all this time… All I can say is; “thank you.” Really, that’s all.

And that you also have IMMENSELY skewed and comically backwards priorities in what you think is most important and needed to make a good Dragon Ball story.

Fun fact the Dragon Ball Z Collectible Card Game in the promotional series Fusion Frenzy named the Goku and Broly fusion as Broku.
Spoiler:
The card game is made by an american company so is not an "official" name. But it would be cool to see other fusions from this series in this new game.
I guess we can have any type of fusion happen. I do wonder what crazy stuff they will have in store. The DB wiki is going to have a field day with this game .
Even with DB Heroes going over the top with all the possibilities, I honestly can say that a fusion between Broly and Goku never came up in my mind.
I guess anything goes.
Sweeet. My dreams are about to come true. I just hope the fusions won't look ugly.
Oh yeah, and #inb4thebrolyhaterscry

Makes a movie about old and weak major villains returning, or making recolored versions of Super Saiyan, I'ma come to yo company and evict you from doing Dragon Ball ever again! Only I do those things, because people love me, and they despise you....derp!
Marco Polo wrote:Goku Black is a fan of DBZ who hates Super and has taken the form of a younger Goku (thinner shape, softer hair) to avenge the original series by destroying the new.
The only thing that bugs me about this game is that it looks like these are Spike models. So the quality of how this game actually plays might be garbage.

I mean, you're pretty open about looking at cartoon porn. Why would you do that? It's fiction. The proportions of these women are not possible to reach in reality.

I instantly imagined Goofy saying it.
