Here's a translation of this:

The ultimate replayable mode becomes even more powerful! "Sim Dragon"

Ultimate Battle evolves even further

The new mode "Sim Dragon" evolved from the "Ultimate Battle" modes in the previous games, and has added simulation elements! In this mode, you enter one of four commands, such as "Train" and "Search", every turn. In doing so, you strengthen your characters, and then fight powerful enemies who appear every ten turns!!

Build up your body by training!

Test the fruits of your training!

Improve your skills with exploration events!

Train, explore, then win battles!

If you win a battle, you get your next turn. By doing this over and over, you prepare for the next powerful enemy. As you continue to play this mode, you will get Z Points that can be used to develop your characters or be exchanged for items. In addition, in the "Mission 100" mode, in which very difficult battles have been prepared for you, the number of battles you can fight increases!

Defeat the powerful enemies who await you, and earn Z Points!

Yes, yes, I know where she came from. But why would people want her in a Dragon Ball game? That's my question. It's odd.

Seconded.

I think Beezlebub would be a fun character to play.

Well, she was in three chapters of the manga, as well as the corresponding three anime episodes for those chapters. And then she also made a separate but similar appearance in the third DB movie. Thus, she's had more screentime in the series than a lot of other characters in the game.

Plus there's the fact that Dr. Slump was/is rather popular in Japan.

I always thought it was cool that Satan was pretty much Dabura.

Yeah, that should definitely be an alternate costume for Dabura.

Definately fake. It's an amazing job. Even better than that old Golden Oozaru in B3 fake that had us all fooled for a while. But whoever made it forgot to edit Nova Shenron's face graphic to look like Blue. >.>

I would love to have Arale and Blue but Blue is fake but Arale? The face is really well made, I wouldn't be surprised if Arale is real. Blue's fake thought. And man Atari forum is like pissing mad now... One thing I am really outraged is the alt. for Future Gohan, of all the things they could have used, he got a lighter coloured gi? Well Ultimate Gohan and Futre Gohan are very similar now. I do hope that One Arm Gohan is a second alt. costume thought...

Correct me if I am wrong, but doesn't Mirai Gohan fire many blasts with just one hand?
If it is like this, an alt. costume with just one arm shouldn't be too hard to be done in my opinion :/

Till now, apparently not.
There is a costume of two-arms-Gohan with his normal Gi and then alternative with a more light-orange one (like mystic gohan in BT2 had).

His grab uses two arms...this was covered in this very topic. It's pretty much confirmed there isn't going to be a one armed Gohan. I’m sure the developers made him use one arm for attacks as a compensation for the lack of that costume.

"His" grab is just a generic one reused from BT2 though. If he doesn't have an one armed costume due to that 'thing', it'll be the first time I consider Spike genuinely stupid.

Well, there are _some_ things for which I will consider Spike genuinely stupid if they don't come with BT3 :/
And I'm not talking about big things, just technically simple stuff that they could build in in a minute...

Akkuman VS Mecha Freeza... Was that in story mode? :o

I was talking in another forum about how Akkuman's total absence after his introduction was just stupid. His special ability could have been useful in several situations, but he was completely ignored after the Baba tournament.
