I can't speak for the Buu thing, but I do know there are images of Ultimate Gohan in the mode-selection screen.
Seeing that everyone is in their Cell Arc Gi while in Saiyan Arc. I bet they'll make Ultimate Gohan be able to transform. Even though I do love Gohan in Goku's Gi. But they're smarter than that I hope.

I've seen that actually, but i'm mostly searching for that screenshot with Fat Buu visible somewhere in the background or something. Or did GameFAQsers made it up?

I really hope the story mode goes beyond Freeza. I cannot support this game if it doesn't :? .

They have everyone in their Cell Arc attire and Boo was spotted. So...I think we might be able to see both of those arc. What I'm curious on. How they going to handle fusion IN Game(As in online) and Vegetto vs Boo. Since ever battle well....from what we've seen...every battle is team styled.

They can have a short story yet still have a ton of the characters throughout all the arcs. I'm hoping they don't do that. I'm already teetering on the edge of buying this thing.

Guys, WAKE UP!!! We have already seen SSG Goku, Majin Boo, and Ultimate Gohan in-game, we have also seen SS2 Boy Gohan, SS & Majin Vegeta, Future Trunks, Dr. Gero, #18, and Coola artwork, Bardock & Goten are already confirmed, and Goku, Kuririn, Yamcha, and Tenshinhan have their Cell arc outfits. They already said that they can't tell us anything about Cell arc, Boo arc, BoG, or GT, so since they haven't told us "no the game doesn't have those parts of the story" like they told us that the game won't have Hero Mode, and since they said that as their first game, they will focus on the more popular characters.

So, it's very likely that the game will have the major characters from Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball Z Movies, and Dragon Ball GT.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter.

Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

We don't know if those artworks were added on the diapo by the development team or by the Japan Expo staff.
Those are generic artworks that don't seem to have been made for the game, they are used on several DVD cover and other material.

There might be movie characters but they already confirmed there won't be any GT characters, they said only the major Z characters will be in the game.

Cooler is in the bottom part, right above "Play":

Can you show me where it was confirmed that there won't be GT? Because last time I checked Treevax's interview, they told him that they will focus in the most popular characters, and said that they can't say if GT will or won't be in the game.

For GT, at 12:22, they say it hasn't been decided to include it in this game but it might be in future games. And they even say they won't add all the characters in one game.

They say that it hasn't been decided if they will be in the game, not that they decided that it won't be in the game. In 14:06, they also say that they can't say that GT will or won't be in the game.

So no, they never said that GT won't be in the game, as you keep saying.

Id rather wait for GT. Hopefully this game will sell and be received well enough to warrant a full fledged GT sequel. Though I could live with GT DLC, I want a SSJ4 VS SSJG battle so bad...

\

If I had to guess we'll probably see one of these three options:

1) The weakest option is that Fusions won't be in game. Rather they'll be their own separate character. In that case you'll probably see one fight were Player One and Two can be Goku and Vegeta respectively against Super Buu. Then in a follow up fight one person will be Vegetto while the other will be Piccolo or Tenshinhan or something.

2) We'll probably see in game transformations for story purposes we'll still have a split fight like with option one. However for non-story fights, it'll be like any other game were each player can fuse with their own separate Vegeta/Goku.

3)COMPLETE CHAOS! Basically like option 2's versus mode. Two Vegetto's against two(?) Super Buu.
...Wait what are you doing? Are you still reading this? I finished what I had to say, why don't you move on to the next post?

Have we gotten confirmation that kid Trunks will be in? If not, how come the DBWikia has him listed? Or, it's just another DBWikia-bullshit?

I just avoid the Dragonball Wiki like the plague. Even if they were right, the information usually finds it's way here(first!). As far as I know he hasn't been confirmed though. Unless you want to count that picture stock photos as confirmation for Cooler, Android 20 and etc. I don't think he's been officially confirmed though. It's probably safe to assume though.
