I know this is off topic and right in the middle but...
Is it possible to import this and play it on an American Wii? I really want to get it NOW, but I'd like some information on the Wii's compatibility with Japanese games. Thanks.

And now...back to your regularly scheduled Sparking! Meteor discussion.

As of right now, no, there isn't a way to play Japanese games on the Wii except for Gamecube games. There still isn't a Wii freeloader for Wii games out.

I was just wondering:
In Movie 13, when Gohan fights the lower half of Hirudegarn, he is "Mystic Gohan".
So why is there no mystic gohan "saiyaman" costume in BT (2/3)?
(of course not the "saiyaman" transformation, just the clothes like Gohan adult had as second costume)

Yeah, I agree. It would be better than is yellow alternate costume. And his school clothes would have been nice too. Ah well.

They even made him only wearing one glove. Great attention to detail.

And the scratches are at the same place as in the manga ! That's cool !

I have found the INTRO!!!!!

Ah, I knew it already, but that's not cool. I prefer the 2D intros of the Budokai series. Bah, I'll watch it only once anyway.

I agree.

The 3D ones look so odd to me.

Ginyu's body change hasn't been altered. I was disappointed at first but I guess I can understand why they didn't do it.

They'd have to program every single character so that they could have Ginyu's voice and moveset in case they get hit by the beam. They'd also have to program Ginyu's model with every other character's voice and moveset. Also, how would this ever work on giant characters?

This way they only have to do it for a few of them and they just put one in randomly.

Arale is offically the best character addition ever.
She even makes ^_^ faces as she gets punched, and the way she runs is so funny!

Amazing.

Wow. The intro sucks. Hard. It's like a bad fanfic gone even more horribly awry. All in glorious 3D.

If your Wii has had any of the recent updates then you can't use a Gamecube Action Replay or Freeloaded on it.

As for the intro, I think the first one was better. This one and the second one are kinda close.
I really seems like we're getting so much more info on the game before it's release than the last one. Is that a good thing or would you have liked some surprises?

Noticed the game is out in download sites already.

I liked the original Sparking! intro best. But Super Survivor is really catchy. Can't wait to find an mp3 of it!

Is there an arale video?

Adey · Post by **Adey** » Wed Oct 03, 2007 7:45 pm

I played as Arale in the game, my friend brought it round today.
(Yeah, he downloaded it, but I couldn't resist having a go)

Yeah, that is sad. Some forums I've been to today had people bragging about how they have downloaded the game. As a result, poor VegettoEX is probably going to throw tantrum along with his review of the game. I'm not going to even thank the ones who's been showing gameplay videos with glitched and skipped audio because chances are, they're playing the bootleg. SHIT!

Does anyone frequent and Japanese video game forums? How do they feel about character choices, music and opening sequences? Are they amused by our bitching, moaning, and belly aching?

Burned copies of games run just as perfectly as the originals actually.

Sorry, I wouldn't know.

Talk about a major additional voice acting for Ginyu's seiyu. It would be cool to hear Ginyu's voice saying some of the attacks such as Kamehameha, and Stupid Ener....I mean, Genki-Dama.

a lot of games come out earlier as downloads anyway. Some people don't mind waiting for their package to be delivered and some (well, many actually) don't enjoy the wait and download it right away.

Please beware the fine line being walked with regards to video game bootlegging discussion. Thanks.
