You've got Moskito from Soul Eater who goes through the entire plethora of transformations Freezer has: The dwarf, the muscleman, the wierd monster, the sleek humanoid form and the full power transformation.

I'm technologically impaired. :cry: I don't even have a computer. If anyone would post these for me, I'd really appreciate it. I'm pretty sure SSJ hair has been used in several WWE games, but I know for sure that it's in Day of Reckoning. The name of the hairstyle is "Super", and it looks like Goku's SSJ hair. There are also two styles of Saiyajin armor that you can use, as well as a Kame emblem you can put on your clothes. If I remember correctly, it puts a small one on your chest and a large one on your back, exactly like DB.

In Power Stone 2 there is a character who has a 'Super' transformation which turns his hair blonde and he can then use a special very much like the Genki Dama.

In No More Heroes, Travis Touchdown has a powerup that's basically Super Saiyan 2. And, then there's the Lovikov Balls, small balls located in various parts of Santa Destroy. If you bring the local Russian drunk, Lovikov, a group of 7 balls, he'll teach you one wrestling move.

God that game is awesome.

I don't have this version of Smackdown vs. RAW; but, this is what he meant by customizable wrestlers:

I only have up to 2006 on the PSP. But, unlike the video, it does have the actual look of the SSJ hair.

What other game could you have Dave Chappelle vs. Goku vs. Michael Jackson, vs. Light Yagami, vs. Ryuk, etc.?

Edit: Here's a better example - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jjv0XkCW ... re=related

This person went another step further and even made the eyes like more like DBZ's.

I always thought Wang Tang resembled a Super Saiyan when he transformed. Glad I was not the only one who thought that.
Just another Dragon Ball fangirl in the world.

DB & Tiger and Bunny are my main fandoms, along with many other animes.

In Dragon Ball Z Budokai, you can turn into a Super Saiyan, and it features characters and storylines from Dragon Ball Z.

Oh dear lord! You're absolutely right! This goes beyond a friendly little reference. Those plagiarizing bastards! How dare they... wait a minute... :wink:

Anyway, has anyone here bought Guitar Hero 5? If so, what were your feelings on the use of "It's over 9000!!!"?

How about Zidane and Kuja from Final Fantasy 9. They both have the ability to transform into something that vaguely resembles SS4.

Dakim from Pokemon looks like a Saiya-jin. As does Nascour.

Some of the WWE games also have a Scouter accessory available. I don't think I saw that mentioned.

Mortal Kombat Armageddon has Goku's hairstyle available (along with quite a few other popular characters).

This might be reaching, but Under the Skin has a character with a red gi and tall, spiky, blonde hair. His name is Dragon Paul. You can see him near the upper left corner here.

I agree. ^_^

Not sure if this pushes the line for video games, but in the Disgaea 2 manga based on the video game, one of Etna's Next Episode previews has her turning into a Super Saiyan and she says something like "Next time on Disgaea Z!" etc.

Incidentally, in one of the title pages with the Cell Juniors, one of the Cell Juniors is doing the same pose as the gremlin monsters from Dragon Quest (sticking out his tongue and doing jazz hands).
