I have to say that now I don't mind who else is in the game now. I have every Dragonball character I ever wanted to play as now.

However I do have a few characters I would like to see but I'm not eager for.

Dr Wheelo
What-if Super Saiya-jin Raditz
What-if Super Saiya-jin Nappa
What-if Super Saiya-jin Bardock
What-if Super Saiya-jin King Vegeta
What-if Super Saiya-jin Turles
Piccolo Buu
What-if Vegetto Buu
Young Trunks (From the same timeline as Future Gohan)
Kid Krillian
Bacterian
Nam
Ranfan
Giran
GT Trunks
Proud Advanceshipper (Ash+May)

It would be totally awesome for a what-if story to have these two fight each other.

Hm, I absolutely love the fact that Future Gohan, GT Kid Goku, and Nova Shenron are in the game, but what about the 3 special characters? Could these 4 be them? :? We'll never know until I get proven wrong and am called an idiot... :lol:
Next quest: Buy the Super: Broly and Super Hero Blurays, also Daima whenever that releases in the states. Also the Super Manga!

GT Goku cool
Future Gohan Excellent
Nova Shenron :roll:

But where did it say anything about special characters for this game?
But I am very excited about future Gohan, I hope they bring Bardock's team into the game as well then they would have characters from every special which would be cool.

Dude, if you look on the first page scan at the top left next to Goku's hand, there's the fight between Piccolo Daimio and Kid Goku, it's taking place in the streets of a town (looks like the one he fought Oolong in).

That's King's Castle...

Hmm... I'll post a list of the probable new characters in my point of view:

ChiChi - Already playable in a game (Super DBZ)
Kami - If Piccolo gets forms, he's probably in
Teen Trunks - Already playable in a game (Final Bout); importante character in the story
Vegeta (GT) - Just to get Super Saiyan 4 Vegeta right.
Eis Shenron - May be in because it's the same character model of Nova, and they sure are lazy.
Rild - If Eis is in this guy is too, Eis will have freezing attacks that block the character, Rild has metal attacks that do the same, again, lazyness.

If this is it (I could be WAY wrong), it's actually not bad...

Uhh... You watched the Buu saga, right?

And Eis Shenron will probably be just an alternate costume for Nova.

But he could.

If Vegetto let him.

Which he did.

Except not really.

Movie Henchmen that could be added -

Movie 1
They all sucked really. Besides, the last game went off Garlic Jr.'s filler saga rather than his movie for some reason. Hey, if that's the case...Add Spice and Vinegar, they have powerups and attacks. Might as well. Spice = Zarbon-like elf, Vinegar = big purple guy btw.

Movie 2
See Movie 1. Dr. Wheelo could be added though. His henchmen could be added, but seriously...they were lame.

Movie 3
Amond, the big red Indian guy. He has that Nappa finger blow shit up technique, and spin around like a tornado technique, and his ultimate could be a beat down attack with the other henchmen. Like when they all attacked Goku...and died, except you die. This guy was like Turles right hand man anyhow, and seemed like the strongest.

Movie 4
They could easily add Angira and Medamotcha. I don't know how I remember them, but eh. Angira does mouth blasts, generic scatter-shot ki beams, and has stretchy arms. Meta has the generic scatter-shot attack, and his "Medas" or "Motchas". Whatever...the damn little green things that come out of him and steal energy. The other henchmen ain't even worth mentioning. Piccolo breaks him and kills him. End.

Movie 5
They could add Neiz, the tall brown guy that looks like some crazy aquatic animal. He had generic ki blasts and a electric attack for an ultimate. Remember? Piccolo fries his ass with his own attack. The other guy...well again...Piccolo kills him before he does anything.

Movie 6
Add the Cooler bots, they're worth it. It'll make the story better. Ki blasts, stretchy robot arms, nets and automatic guns make them a good choice. Everybody had to fight them, so it'll make Cooler's second appearance longer. Actually, they might be able to slip Ghetti Cooler in, you know...like he was at the end. He's big, has wires everywhere, absorbs stuff...and...absorbs stuff. He'd probably be a bad choice, nevermind.

Movie 7
They can add the Androids. Not that hard. The Android #14 has generic ki ball attacks, they can give him a rush, and his ultimate could be another rush they can make up a bit. Android #15 could have that vertical ki disk thing he does, generic full power blast and his ultimate could be when he and the other android combine energy balls and blow crap everywhere like they did to that tower.

Movie 8
If I see Paragus in any fighting game, I'll shoot myself in the face.

Movie 9
Kogu (Gokua). He has a sword, he smashes people around like Broly, he can transform, and he shoots ki balls. His base ultimate could be a sword attack rush, his transformed ultimate could be a brutal beat down rush then finished with a big blast or slice. They could add Bujin. That guy had to be on acid. Seriously. Give him a psychic rock/pillar/whatever throw, ki beam/blast/rush and his ultimate would be a tag team attack with the Bido and Zangya. They hold the person down with the absorbing death strings and the midget beats the person to death or blows him to hell, or does something acid-like.

Movie 10
Nothing.

Movie 11
Bio Broly.

Movie 12
Nothing.

Movie 13
Maybe the little bastard that gets stepped on. He shot ki, and he could summon Hildergarn to do something violent, just like how Babidi summons things.


Wow, that was a waste of time. Ouch!

The last thing these games need is more worthless, Goku/Piccolo-fodder henchmen, but nice, thorough list nonetheless.

Heh. Hoi's a better choice than Babidi, at least.

They could add Minoshia, I guess, but he'd probably just end up being a Tapion clone.

Atleast we got some idea of how this stupid disc fusion thing is gonna work. But shouldn't BT3 have it own Ultimate Battle mode?

But I gotta say, I do miss the 100 Battle. I would always get wooped by the #6 Yamcha. Do you think that there'll be anything special for having a BT2 save on the Wii? I bought it last week to test out the Wii-mote and Nunchuk controls (which I do not recommend for fast paced fighting games like this) and ended up buying a classic controller which is soooo much better than using the Gamecube one.

I wonder if they've worked out a better leveling system? Especially for characters you only play two scenarios with. I want my full roster available to take down any fool who dares challenge me.

I figure that he's just gonna be an alternate costume for Buu arc Vegeta. We don't need him as an extra character.

Where's my Wheelo and ChiChi?
Yeah, I've noticed he's got two arms on the picture; But who knows, maybe he'll have only one in another outfit, or something like that.

And I like the select screen too.

:shock: YES YES YES! I guess everyone can breath easy now that GT Goku is in.I myself can't wait, it's too freakin' cool!

Shenron look awesome! nice and shiney :lol:

Alt. Gohan! Yes it's about time. I could'nt bare the idea of them passing off Buu arc Gohan as Alt. Gohan in story mode again LOL.

And seeing as though he's using a one handed Masenko in one of the scans as well as Piccolo's Makankosuppo which also requires one arm, then it is possible that he will have one arm as an alternate outfit, but I won't think to hard about it.

Anyways I'm sick of the folk that want to shoot things down cause Wheelo or Chi Chi has'nt been announced. Relax people (not everyone cares bout those characters as much as you do :lol: )

Also with this whole taking up space thing. It's ridiculous. Nobody is going to be in the game if they were'nt planned to. Some tend to forget that the DBZ Sparking series is about keeping things real and true to the source material, so having time specific characters is one of those requirements.

Yes, they definately need to make changes. In fact, I've got three ideas that would make it perfect. One, add in a Dragon Arena style mode, or allow exp gains in Ultimate Battle mode. Two, don't level up the Potara items, absorb them! IE your +5 health reaches full EXP and it goes away but the character it was equiped to now, permanately, has 5 more points towards health. Three, increase the maximum level of a stat to *at least* 99 (though characters would 'stop' leveling at like, 50, and you'd need items for all other boosts) or, even better 999 (again, character leveling would stop somewhere, say around 800, and you'd need items to max out)!
