I ordered the game today, so hopefully I will get it by the end of the year to play you guys on WiFi.

Should take about 12 days at the most to come, who knows, my Bleach DS was delivered in just 3 days! I don't think I'll ever get a delivery from Hong Kong that fast again though v.v

Seems that you guys import stuff a lot, huh? I'm trying to buy this game loader thing (?) for the Gamecube. You put the disk in and after that, you can play some import games too. They probably have it for other systems.[/off-topic]

Seeing how Jump Superstars made an appearance in Best Buy stores (godsend), maybe this will happen for JUS too. I made my first deck guys (not the one from Adey). Problem is, I can't get Trunks to assist me with R. He only works with the touch screen.

Oh I've heard JUS is appearing in numerous American stores, from GFAQS. Did you press R in the deck making mode, so the little thing comes up with LEADER - L - R on? Then did you assign R to Trunks koma so the letter R appears over it?

Mr.Piccolo · Post by **Mr.Piccolo** » Mon Dec 18, 2006 9:31 am

Well Goku (shaped T) is my leader. I did that by pressing R. Do I have to do that for support characters too? I think I'm understanding this game a lot better.

Just curious: how many missions(different manga you see and missions within those) are in the game?

Also, how long would it take to complete this game or better yet have most of the DragonBall characters? Not so sure if you look at GameFAQ's message board but I think they are already doing tournaments for this game, incase you are interested

. I'm in no way, shape, or form able to compete at the moment but I'm sure some of you guys probably could.

I'm decent at the game, but not enough for tournaments, most of the guys are way better, I've only had the game for 6 days!

You should assign the R and L buttons to support koma, not battle characters, so you can use supports on the fly instead of having to use the touch screen, it's better for the touch screen itself that way too!

There are loads of worlds you can visit, I' say over 20. The last DB character you'll unlock will most likely be Gotenks, he's right at the end of the game along with Buu (I think Buu comes a bit before Gotenks though).

There are also atleast 2 missions for each planet (meaning 10 objectives within) apart from one I've saw that only had 1 mission. Some planets have 4 missions (meaning 20 objectives!) and one even has 10 missions! (50 objectives! and this ones kind of difficult too!)

There is way more than 20 worlds. Just wait until you unlock the hidden worlds! I already entered that gamefaqs.com tourney. My user name is "SonicFreak99". There can be anywhere from 2-10 objectives in a single level.

Adey · Post by **Adey** » Tue Dec 19, 2006 6:41 am

I might enter that tournament, I haven't really decided yet.

Mr.Piccolo · Post by **Mr.Piccolo** » Tue Dec 19, 2006 3:16 pm

I had my first WiFi match with three other players today and I know exactly what you guys are talking about when it comes to lag..

I actually thought the game was still loading not too long before owned.

I've set up some pretty decent teams including Goku Lv.5 Koma(?). That Up X attack(kaioken strike) is too easy to spam, though.

I have a question about earning certain jems: what missions give you a lot of the J(White) gems? Please don't tell me the "don't get hit" missions give you a lot of those because I won't be able to clear those anytime soon >.>...

I don't think it's the missions themselves, but how many times you K.O people and collect the multi-coloured things that they drop. The lag when you fight people in Japan atleast is very noticeable, but it's not unplayable, you just have to adjust :S.

I love 5 koma Goku's Kaioken

it works wonders in sudden death!. I'm not too sure about those gems you're talking about, I seem to just got them from completing the missions, I don't know where specifically to find more than usual :S.

Like I said earlier, go to ranking mode, beat all of the "ranking" modes in there, and go to the all star mode.(The one mode in the game that is locked.)

You get at least 200 of each gem, but for the reds and such you get 500. The only downside is you end up fighting 20 matches, but it's worth it.

Oh, thanks (again), Sasuke..

I'm putting together a guide together for the everyday lazy bastard. I'm breaking up guides and info from JUS into shorter sections into Microsoft Notepad. Then, I'm putting those files in my Ipod along with pictures if necessary.

I'm loving the game so far but it's a damn shame (Mystic) Gohan wasn't in the game, though..

Adey · Post by **Adey** » Tue Dec 19, 2006 7:23 pm

Have to say, Sasuke and Dio are fast becoming my favourite guys to play as.
You still get gems for each ranking mode you complete even after you've done them all once, right? I enjoy playing the 2nd J-arena mode where it's just KO all of your opponents and you win. I'm not too fond of collect the stars and whatnot.

That sounds cool, and your welcome.

To Adey- I'm pretty sure that you get a pretty good amount of gems for playing the other ranking modes, but it's nowhere NEAR the amount that you get from All Star Mode. All Star mode has all 3 ranking mode challenges mixed into one. I found it to be quite a bit of fun.

And of course Sasuke is amazing...

Adey · Post by **Adey** » Tue Dec 19, 2006 8:38 pm

I've done all J-Arena challenges, I guess I should just focus on the All star mode whenever I'm not on wi-fi, I've only completed it once and I could use more gems and stuff, I'm running lowest on red, still!

Mr.Piccolo · Post by **Mr.Piccolo** » Tue Dec 19, 2006 8:48 pm

I have hundreds of red gems to spare. I need the white kind though..

-Rick

Adey · Post by **Adey** » Wed Dec 20, 2006 8:04 am

I have thousands to spare!

.
(By that I mean about 2700)

Mr.Piccolo · Post by **Mr.Piccolo** » Wed Dec 20, 2006 8:30 am

Nevermind, I reached J-Galaxy and got a crapload of gems, enough to upgrade my Vegeta to 6-Koma and also to get Vegetto.

The most annoying missions imo, are the break the walls and anytime you have to use a deck other than yours.

Sasuke_Chidori · Post by **Sasuke_Chidori** » Wed Dec 20, 2006 12:49 pm

I found something interesting that I might as well share with you guys. After I beat the last J-Arena challenge a second time, I got a new world. I wonder if this is an alternate way to get new levels.?

Mr.Piccolo · Post by **Mr.Piccolo** » Wed Dec 20, 2006 1:11 pm

Do you usually beat all five quests within a mission and the secret ones, if they are there? I figured that was the only way to get more levels. As for the challenge mode you suggested, I'm going to save that coin one for last. The point system and I guess the "death match" are my favorite because they are the most like Smash Bros. (when play). I've made the habit of removing items and hazards before a fight.

And just for fun and because it's easier to play like this in some ways, I've been making decks with only one battle character and one support character (both have to be from the same series). All of the other characters could be whatever. I made a couple but my favorite would be the last Goku because of that little spirit-bomb easter egg(having more characters charges it up). You should try it, its pretty fun and makes it feel like more of a Street Fighter imo.
