I actually wouldn't doubt that being why they do a Vegeta/Naruto match-up, considering they did take the Ryotsu/Freeza thing pretty seriously for this game, heh. :mrgreen:

And those life-size statues of Goku and Luffy fighting are just badass. I also can't help but chuckle that...well...there's a noticeable lack of a Toriko statue. Poor series.

Amazon preorders for this are really low given it's out this week. Namco Bandai better hope it does well with the audience that doesn't place preorders.

Hey guys! I preordered the game for the PS3 and I don't know a lick of japanese. How do other people play imported games without learning the language?

Gamefaqs. Years back when I imported Naruto Shippuden Narutimate Accel 2, I had Gamefaqs to get me through the story. After a while you can pick things up without a guide, recognize what certain combinations of characters mean, and context clues to get through what you need to.

Fighting games are not very complicated in that regard. You get used to the menus after a while of trial and error. With time you will even recognize what the menus say.

Pre-orders are being delivered today! Don't know how long PlayAsia takes, but the games are on the way right now.
Hope the menus and stuff get tranlated here real soon or I'll probably end up messing the game up just trying to do Duel/VS mode.

Thank you so much!!!!
Though it sucks we don't start with everyone... Does playing Story Mode give the points to buy characters?

I wouldn't want to start with every character, I love the feeling I get as I unlock each one. Especially characters I really want.

I was tempted to cancel my order and download since it'd be quicker, but It's only about 8 bucks less than I paid and I'd rather have a physical copy.

The opening of JSVS features Spike as the developer if anyone still had any doubts.

I'll eventually buy a used copy of it on eBay or some other online retailer as it doesn't feel right to me paying so much for a game made by Spike.

It's fun? Yeah sure looks like it.
Worth the full price? Subjective.

You're weird not wanting to buy a game because of the developer's name...

I'm just not going to support the developer although I'll buy it used from someone else, just the same as an EA game.

That's weird standards to have.

Anyway, from the bits of playthroughs I've seen so far, the game looks great. Can't wait to get mine.

Very odd, indeed...like the member (I can't remember who) that wouldn't buy BoZ because of the metacritic score...despite the fact that he himself liked the game.


Regardless of that, though, my copy should ship from PlayAsia today...hopefully I'll get it this weekend..

If Spike were one of the developers I liked I'd happily support them by paying the full price but it isn't the case and I dislike that their games are shallow, repetitive and reskinned but fun nonetheless.

There's people that like games from Capcom/EA/Activision but they don't buy it new so that money doesn't go to Capcom/EA/Activision.

Really, there's just nothing weird about it.
