I think the screen shot with Majin Vegeta and Nappa could be from the story mode. It can be a what if Trunks return to Goku's timeline to join the 25th Tenkachi Budokai then ends up helping Goku and the others to stop Majin Buu from being born. To help awaken Majin Buu, Babidi has brought back past DBZ villains under his control to gather energy. In Budokai 2, he did a similar thing by brining back Cell and Freeza under his control.

That's such a crazy, insane, and stupid idea...



....that it might actually be true. :P

I guess but they could have used Raditz instead of Vegeta then. It's kind of an inconsistency having Vegeta fighting himself :lol:

Why would Babidi revive Nappa of all people though? It's a what-if, sure, but it's Nappa.... Nappa!

Wow, I'm really far behind...like 190 pages behind. What's been happening with this game? I always forget that this exists, has there been a substantial amount of news or are half of these pages speculation? I checked Kanzenshuu, but the game doesn't seem to have a tag like Battle of Gods did.

Seriously, I only just discovered the game's official website. :lol:

Honestly, how did this thread get so many pages? :shock: I guess video games are always huge discussions...

If they ignore manga canon and let villains keep their bodies in hell, we can get a what if where all the dead major Saiyans such as Raditz, Nappa, and Bardock come back with SSJ.

Yeah, but even 12 years later, Nappa would still be a bitch to even base Goten.

In Plan to Eradicate the Saiyans, they brought back Tullece, even though he was trash to everyone at that point. It's a game; they can make it work. Tenkaichi 3 had a what-if of The Devil Man beating both Freeza and King Cold, remember?

He was a Ghost Warrior, so his power was probably increased.

Akkuman killed Freeza & Cold with his Akkumaito-Beam. Which is possible.

We've had fights in video games with illogical winners though like Max Power Roshi vs M8 LSS Broli (winner: Roshi), SS Gogeta vs Super Vegetto (winner: Gogeta), SS3 Vegeta vs SS3 Gotenks, SS3 Broli, and SS3 Goku (winner: Vegeta), Bardock vs 1st Form Freeza (winner: Bardock)... the list goes on and on...
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.

Well, yeah, but who says that this Nappa can't be a stronger one as well?

He would have still had to survive a fight with them to hit them with the beam. I can't remember which one you beat first, but you think that the other would have thrown Akkuman into the sun before he could pull off the attack again.

But yeah, the rest of your post is what I was getting at.

Babidi could bring back other villains under his control like Dr. Gero, the Ginyu force, Freeza and Cell. It reminds me of PGV's fan fiction where Babidi mind control all of the villains in Hell to help bring back Majin Buu.

The fact that games have lopsided fights all the time. You're taking power levels way to seriously. The games don't care how someone matches up to someone else.

Inconsistent power scaling is annoying as all Hell to me. I don't care if it is a story form a video game.

It's not inconsistent...in a video game lol. Especially for a what if which most of this game is apparently. Gohan lost to Videl in RB1.
