Huh? Why would they make a Wii game about Piccolo from DBE?

No, clearly it's a Funi dub-based game starring Akkuman.

I know publishers, including Nintendo themselves, often times send Wii games to die, but this is just ridiculous.

...The hell?

Dragonball Z: Spike? :|

What kind of game is it, Fighting? RPG? Maybe we'll finally get our Dragonball Z Racing game! :P
Next quest: Buy the Super: Broly and Super Hero Blurays, also Daima whenever that releases in the states. Also the Super Manga!

Fan of Dragon Ball Z and various other Anime since '98! ^^

Or MAYBE it's a volleyball game starring James Marsters and Akkuman who have to play while simultaneously avoiding 8-bit spikes from Mega Man. This is gonna be the bestest game ever.

Or maybe it's being developed by...



















Dimps.

Oh, the delicious irony.

I'd guess just a listing for Raging Blast 2, but it's far too cheap for that. Maybe that PSP game?

Nope. It's a Wii game. Due to be released on January 1st 2010. I can't... wait a minute... somethings a bit off here...

Clearly it's a beach volleyball game developed by Tecmo using the Dead or Alive Extreme engine. Instead of jiggle though, it'll be used to realistically render hair.

What do I really think it is? A mistake.

We've had a tonne of ports in this franchise before, none were ever name changed, so why start now?

Date formats are different in foreign countries.

*Recalls Tenshinhan's volleyball technique*.

I'm not sure what to think about this game title. I'm curious about it though.

Maybe it's a port of Tenkaichi Tag Team. Or maybe it's a reworked Tenkaichi 3 engine with 2 on 2 matches.

A guy can dream... of anything short of buying a PSP.

Wow, I totally missed both of those.

...well, maybe it's simply a dead listing, then.

Sparking 4? They're obviously still intimate with the gameplay and graphics engine because of Tag VS, so this wouldn't surprise me, to be honest.


Also, guys, this is a European game-listing. They have their dates Day/Month/Year instead of in the states where we do Month/Day/Year. So, it implies that the game will be released on October 1st, 2010.

I doubt it. They're far too busy fucking up Sonic the Hedgehog to be bothered to make a game about DragonBall. If Dimps doesn't add thirty dash pads and homing attack gimmicks, who will?
