Yep, I believe stores like EB Games and Gamestop (maybe Best Buy) are selling some Wii games early. I know this since I'm picking up both Sparking! NEO and Marvel: Ultimate Alliance (Wii versions) tomorrow. :lol:
Nothing matters (in a cosmic sense.) Have a good time.

Question about the menu in the US version: When you switch the language to Japanese, does that include the voices in the menus as well, or just in game?

Wii~! X3
I still haven't decided which system of the two (Wii or PS3; I don't like XBOX 360) I like more or would prefer to purchase.


But yes that is awesome disc art.

Yes it certainly does my friend.

Switching the voices to Japanese makes everything the original voices (menus, in-game, cutscenes, etc.).
There is no better combination in the world than Dragonball, Cherry Pepsi, and Cheez-Its. It's a proven fact.

I just picked up the Wii version too and it shows that it uses the classic controller on the back, so people who don't want to use the remote won't have to.

Red background? I'm not sure about this. If I had seen the cover with the red background initially, I would probably say the same thing about the blue PS2 one. O Hard Decision!

If you ask me, the red looks a bit nicer.

Still, for affordability's sake, and since it is dual-language, I'll stick with the US version of the game. Probably PS2 version, cuz Lord knows when I'll get a Wii.

Well now that the Wii is officially out, has anyone gotten it and played that version of the game yet? If so, what are your thoughts? How does it fell doing a Kamehameha? Lastly, is there anything different or special extras compared to the PS2 version?

I got the wii version of Tenkaichi 2 along with Zelda :) But lets just stick to DBZ. The wii version is AMAZING. If you were thinking about what version you wanted, this is it. How do you aim your ki blasts? Simple, point and click the trigger. This is REALLY satisfying. You feel even more like you are your favorite charecter(s)! Don't like the wii controls? Simple. I just bought a classic controller and it works like a charm. I say get the wii along with DBZ, Zelda, Far Cry, Monkey Ball, and Trauma Center...now i'm going off topic. But the game is really, really good, and the wii controls make it better. I don't know about extras. I'll notify you guys if there are any changes or extras. Just got it, not sure.

First impression score:

8.4/10
PLAY B3YOND.

I got Zelda... and Red Steel as well.

I'm working on unlocking the characters in BT2, but everytime I try I get distracted by Wii Sports! I mean, there's nothing better than making Mii's of people you hate and beating the ever-living crap out of them in the Boxing mini game! :lol:
