Episode of Bardock

[DBZFan310]

Was The Episode of Bardock ever released in America?

[Gonstead]

Dubbed? No.

Released? Technically yes, as it is present on the Dragon Ball Z: Kinect game.

Thanks =] Would you know where I could purchase a official Episode of Bardock DVD (Doesn't matter if its Japanese)

[DragonBoxZTheMovies]

It was released in a double feature with Plan to Eradicate the Super Saiyans that came packed with an issue of Saikyo Jump back at the start of 2012. But the odds of finding that for sale on eBay or something are pretty low.

Yahoo Auctions Japan might have some but you'll have to pay for a middleman service, which can be costly at times.

You can get the Episode of Bardock for $34.99 on Amazon, but here's the thing it's on Dragon Ball Z For Kinect which requires Xbox 360 and the additional motion sensor device Kinect.

It's in Japanese with English subs, high-def release.

Is it really in HD on the Kinect game?

You should avoid it, it's rubbish.

A guy who couldn't even defeat Dodoria becoming a Super Saiyan. Bull.

EoB? Well, kinda but it's entertaining.

I wouldn't say that Dragon Ball Z For Kinect is an awful game because I genuinely liked the fighting system on it, although, if Spike had spent more time developing it they could have made it much bigger and better. Anyway, the essential is there but definitely not worth $35/£25 (Amazon prices).

Is it really in HD on the Kinect game?

Yep:



I mean, it's very unlikely the thing was actually produced at 720p, so it's upscaled in a way up to that resolution, but the file itself on the disc is 1280x720, and it's definitely more clear than both the streaming file and the Saikyo Jump DVD.

Does any body have the file ripped from the Kinect Game in Full quality straight from the disc that they would be able to share with me? =]

Rule #5: No Bootlegging
We do not condone bootlegging. When it comes down to it, Dragon Ball has had a very rough journey in various countries, but we are finally at the point where we can legally purchase many of the things we want and support our fandom. We recognize that there is a fine line with regard to things such as “unreleased” and comparatively-ancient material, so just be wary and respectful of that line.

Thanks. I heard that some anime shows were still produced at 720p even today, though.

FUNimation needs to step it up. They got the special, which they'd probably call "Return of Goku" or something, they got this, which they'd probably call "Power of Bardock" and the new movie, which they'd probably call "Ultimate Battle" to do. I just need these things on blu-ray, don't care how they dub it lol

Funny you should ask, I'm actually selling one of my three copies on eBay right now. Is $45.00 a rip off? Well when you consider that you could only get it in a magazine during a small window of time in Japan... maybe not?

Funimation should release it as, Yeah, Bardock Is Totally A Super Saiyan Now... Makes Sense!.

With TFS's version as an option.

[dbboxkaifan]

"Bardock The Father Of Goku Revisits The Past And Turns Into A Super Saiyan!!"

I'd hope FUNimation would stick to the original name than some wild guess.

Wait... even though this was produced digitally it wasn't produced in hd? Not even 720p?

[JulieYBM]

I think most longer running titles are still being produced at 480p. Naruto Shippuuden has the occasional HD episode, but I believe it is mostly produced at 480p.
