Ah, it says the game will be for 1-4 players. That seems to be it for new info.

Up to 4 players DBZ game... on the PSP? Include online for that and I AM SOLD!

Looking at the official site, it definitely looks like a Sparking style game. Like I said before, the tag experience reminds me of Legends and the Sparking style gameplay won't annoy me as much on a handheld because I don't play a handheld for hours at a time.

This is a Japanese game. It's probably local multiplayer only. That said, every single local multiplayer PSP game can become an online multiplayer with the free application called "Ad-Hoc Party" for PS3. You have to have a non-20GB model that is running off a wired connection (rather than WiFi) for it to work.

Wired connection? How do you plug a network cable into a PSP?

No, no... wired connection to the launch-model 20 GB PS3. The weird internet-enabled connection for the PSP stuffage goes through the PS3 and then back over to the PSP.

It's... a lovely little workaround.

The application is compatible with every PSP model. However, it's not compatible with every PS3 model. The 20GB unit is not compatible with it, because it lacks WiFi. The app basically makes the PS3 a special router for the PSP. Which is why the PS3 needs to have a wired connection, because current PS3 hardware only allows it to send WiFi in one direction (either it's recieving, or it's broadcasting).

I'm so excited! This is going to be the first original Dragon Ball game for the PSP.


And not to mention 4 player tag teams. :P

There was also a program called XLink KAI you could use on your PC as well, which pretty much did the same thing.
I've tried it a couple of times, but never got it to work. Maybe I'll give it a go these days again.

How does that work? I may try giving it a shot. (I've been itching to try out the Multiplayer on my "Birth By Sleep")

I'm not exactly sure, haven't tried it lately. But here is the developers' website: http://www.teamxlink.co.uk/
They have guides, download links and everything. :)

I didn't mention X-Link Kai for a reason. It's a lot more difficult to set up.

True, that's why I never got to setting it up in the first place. But it's an alternative for those who don't own an older PS3 console.

You don't need an old PS3 to use Ad-Hoc Party. Infact, the only PS3 that application isn't compatible with is the oldest PS3, the 20GB North American Unit. All PS3s (60GB, 40GB, 80GB, 120GB, 160GB, 250GB, etc.) with the exception of the above 20GB launch unit can use Ad-Hoc Party.

My, my, where have I been reading? :oops: I understood it totally wrong. Just... ignore me. :lol:
So, you can use this with the new Slim models as well I suppose?
