I wouldn't even mind if it was only a Dragon Ball x One Piece x Toriko game, just means that there'd potentially be more DB and One Piece characters, which pleases me :P

If it is a large crossover game (more likely tbh) I could totally see Naruto in there with all the new power-ups that are basically Super Saiyan Naruto.

Battle Stadium D.O.N. doesn't play like the Jump Stars games, and what would Sony have to do with it anyways? They're not making this game.

So it looks like we'll have to wait until the 17th.

Lol let's compare names, though. Super Smash Brothers was originally called Nintendo All-Stars! Battle Royale Smash Brothers, and Sony's game...PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale. But the gameplay is quite different. Battle Stadium D.O.N was a lot more like Smash Brothers than PS All-Stars. I hope this game is like D.O.N. Though, I never did get to play the Jump Stars games...

I'm pretty sure that this game WON'T be like Battle Stadium D.O.N.
For Battle Stadium D.O.N, right from the title you can tell that it's only about Dragonball, One Piece and Naruto, hence D.O.N.
The title here is PROJECT VERSUS J, J most likely means Jump, as in JUMP manga characters. The game probably wouldn't have used the J (Jump) to only have 3 series battle it out.
I'm sensing a Wii U release, hopefully 3DS but I wouldn't have my hopes up for 3DS.

I see no reason for Namco Bandai to make a Wii U exclusive for a game like this.

By Wii U I mean console, by 3DS I mean handheld. My apologies for not wording it that way.

There's a rumor going around Japanese blogs and forums saying it's a PS3/Vita game. Due to Sparking Omega I'm not definitively calling it yet.

This scan on Saiyan Island seems to confirm that it'll be on PS3/Vita.

Confirmed for PS3 & Vita: http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/1686 ... jscan2.jpg

Goku doing the Kamehameha looks...weird. So, basically, a more grounded version of Zenkai Battle Royal with more series? And is it more than just those 3?

EDIT: Woops, ninja'd :P

Does this confirm Bleach being in or is that section irrelevant?
I'm re-watching Dragon Ball GT in full on my blog. Check it out if you're interested in my thoughts on the series as I watch through it!

Visually looks a lot like it. Hell, if I only saw the Goku screenshot, I'd think it was just a new stage for it lol (There also it being in the "team battle action" category, very reminiscent of it as well)

So wait, did they confirm Naruto, Bleach, etc, or the below section is unrelated?
James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

I can't be sure, but it looks like they're just showcasing various characters from Jump that could make it into the game, depending on who the voters choose. None of those could be confirmations, just examples of what could be included.
