That is some hot shit, right there, and I love how his goatee is still present. :3

Where did his cape, necklace, and armband go?
Torn to bits? The cap was a little strange, but the armband and necklace are made of some metal/stone and that be stretched to far without being destroyed.

Babidi's mind control power could work like...
You have a team of fighters, right? So Babidi takes one which isn't currently fighting and moves that fighter to his team! And that would probably need lots of ki so that it couldn't be spammed...

That WOULD be neat. But I don't think Spike is that creative.

I find it hilarious that they kept his facial hair on the oozaru. XD

Though it's kinda good they didn't keep the mustache part; that would just look ridiculous.

I'm looking forward to some of the new dialogue we'll get. Nail Vs. Piccolo, Nail Vs. Freeza, Freeza Vs. King Cold, Cooler Vs. King Cold, King Vegeta Vs. King Cold, King Vegeta Vs. Vegeta, Bardock Vs. King Vegeta, Babidi Vs. Majin Vegeta, Spopovitch Vs. Videl.... those are only the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

Oozaru King Vegeta is an awesome character design, and all...

But c'mon... you've played as one Oozaru, you've played as them all...

It looks like they finally got Kuririn's eye color right, and now I can finally see why they had colored it white up to this point. He looks creepy now...

Spike uses some wierd romanizations for character names in the url. There's Son Gokou as always, but also Ten Shinhan and Chaoz.

You are right, he looks creepy as hell with "normal" eyes. I preferred when it was white :?

Wait I was under the impression those were his old eyes. Why not just make Goku have his teenage eyes too? That decision seems somewhat random. I actually kind of like the homage back to the old times though.

Hmm...this is intriguing...the Japanese Wikipedia site seems to have the Four Star Evil Dragon (I forget his dub name and I don't care) listed in the Meteor new character section.

Dunno if that's just Japanese vandalism like you get on the English version, or someone over there knows something.

The article

The relevant part:
■Sparking!METEOR

孫悟空(前期)(声優:野沢雅子)
ピッコロ(前期)(声優:古川登志夫)
ネイル(声優:森功至)
コルド大王(声優:郷里大輔)

大猿ベジータ王(声優:銀河万丈)
バビディ(声優:八奈見乗児)
スポポビッチ(声優:江川央生)
四星龍(声優:山口健)
則巻アラレ(声優:小山茉美)
The very sloppy translation through Babelfish, my emphasis added:
Sparking!

Just wanted to throw this out there.

As long as they decide to vary the Oozaru more in this game (Baby Vegeta's was the only one with a unique attack in the last one), I say the more, the better!

I think they added just about every major Oozaru in the series, didn't they? (Except for Seripa and the rest of Bardock's team, and every other Saiyan...)
Next quest: Buy the Super: Broly and Super Hero Blurays, also Daima whenever that releases in the states. Also the Super Manga!

We don't have the standard Golden Oozaru yet, although I'd be satisfied with them being alternate skins (why haven't they done this yet!?)

HAHAHA! :lol: :roll: Lighten up Mike...besides it's probably going to be more of the same anyway... be a cynic like me, then you can never be disappointed! :wink: *crosses fingers for a Super DBZ sequel* While I am a fan of them big apes I'm also tired of the same moves for almost every Oozaru character. Why can't they mix it up? Then again I'm sure every person here is asking the same thing for every character. :roll: At least they gave Oozaru Vegeta a bigger version Gyarikku Hou move... :? Not too original but cool none the less. I hope something surprises me with this game. I think we all saw this coming.

It also mentions Arale (something Babelfish can't seem to "translate" even in a Chestnut Phosphorous manner). But they don't cite any references, so I'll believe it when I see it from a credible source.

Right, which is why I made sure to say it wasn't a definitive fact.

Though it'd be wonderful to play as Arale. Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin!

I think I speak for everyone when I say I want Piccolo in his driving school attire to be playable in the game

Oozaru Gotenks. Do fusion pants expand?
... And while we're at it, can caharacters revert out of Oozaru (moon goes away, tails removed, etc)?

Will Namekian Fusion (Nail and Piccolo) use the same style as fusion between the saiyans in Sparking! Neo?

... On the matter of what-ifs, what if Slug fused with Nail? Though I doubt they'd add such a feature... *wonders what a conversation with the design teams for this game would be like*

instead of having you guys guess, why don't i give it a try?
i can read all of that despite not knowing japanese. the kanji helps, though. i won't type out the names. i'm sure everyone knows 'em by now.
