I'm really looking forward to picking this up, especially if it's the European release with the Japanese voicecast.

With that said, once the UK version comes out, if there is no word on a US release, you better believe I'll be putting in an order at amazon.co.uk
Europe always gets Japanese voices in their handheld DB games, so I'm importing it even if Atari does announce it. Amazon UK won't ship video games outside of the UK though.

Well, I guess I could Ebay it or something.

Also Amazon UK doesn't ship outside the UK, why? I have bought stuff off amazon Japan and it was all fine and dandy.

If you order directly through Amazon Japan, and not the seller's market, they will ship to the US.

Also, I am sure some site will have it for sale and will ship to the US.

Are you talkin' 'bout Amazon UK in of itself, or in general? Because I bought Ring Infinity for Wonderswan from one of their sellers and they shipped it to me.

According to Amazon UK's FAQ, they do ship outside of the UK, The sellers might not though. I guess I'll find out in a few months.

Huh. Maybe they've changed their policy, because I could have sworn they wouldn't ship games outside of the UK.

I wonder if there will be sequels...... and that's all I wanted to say

Post by **Herms** » Tue Jun 30, 2009 7:55 am

There's a "to be continued" screen after the end credits (with a silhouette of Freeza in the background), so they do seem to be planning on a sequel.

Then it depends on marketing and sellings now

I'm playing it right now. Great game. The filler missions are kinda ironic (because the game's name is Dragon Ball Kai) but I'm really enjoying it.

The "language barrier" isn't a big problem. However, I played some JRPGs before (for example Harukanaru Goku Densetsu), so I have a little experience with this "trial & error" stuff. Besides, Herms' FAQ is fantastic.

I'm in the battle with Nappa now and have a question:
When do I collect the Dragonballs (a second time)? Can I do it everytime or after the main quest?

It's been a long time, but I believe you can start collecting the "Popo Balls" only right before the final battle with Vegeta.

Yep, I did it. I wished for EXP but my characters didn't level up. No change at all. oO

European boxart for Attack of the Saiyans, it's the same as the Japanese boxart aside from the changed logo.

I can't wait for this game to come out; I haven't gotten a new DS game in forever and it looks like a fun game to play (plus one of my favorite arcs--the 23rd Budoukai--is in it!) X3

Well, if you like Dragon Quest, then you will like that game. I actually own Japanese Kai DS and it's very fun. It's hard but fun. I havent even finished that game for 3 months. I'm struggling with Vegeta.
