This game just keeps getting better and better, it really is a shame that there aren't any announcements or signs of coming over to the Western via X360 or PS3, or even Wii U.

Hopefully 2013 will be a fair year for Dragon Ball home console games.

I wonder if Whis and Bils from DBZ Movie 14 (Battle of Gods) will end up being in the game?

It'd be genius from a marketing perspective.

I won't be surprise if they add them for a possible console port. I also hope to see someone from DB Heroes like Bebi Janemba.

It's just a rumor at this point, but don't rule it out of possibility.

If they develop it for PS3 so can it run too on Xbox 360, I guess they just don't want to. Shame because this game and with the social features of Xbox LIVE would've been great fun to play and talk with the others (2v2).

I don't believe it until its official. I find it odd that it won't be on the 360 if they plan to release outside the US since the DBZ games usually often targeted outside Japan and 360 is the most popular console in the US.

IDK. It might be a large game by the time they add all characters and stages they want to add. Hell, the game could be as large as 15+ GB. And knowing NB, they wouldn't put forth the extra cash for two discs on the Xbox.

I doubt it'll end up that big. If it is, then it would be a PS3 exclusive but that is a very small chance.

The Wii U uses a proprietary disc which is 25GB per layer. It's basically a Blu-ray disc, but it's not exactly the same type the PS3 uses.

As far as ZBR's size, that's the only reason I could think of as to why it won't come to the 360. But hey, this is all just rumors and speculation.

I remember being told that the game uses the same hardware that Tekken 6 used which was also on the 360 (It also sold well on the 360). I know the recent Gundam games are also only on the PS3 and PSP, but those games are only released in Japan. Most people told me that Bandai never release those games in the US since Gundam has a small fan base compare to Dragon Ball.

And neither would Namco Bandai be willing to make a digital format release of the game, I think.

Not to mention that the music would probably be changed too for the international edition. Please not Ultimate Tenkaichi music again, something actually new!

Oh God, I can't take another replacement score..... Kikuchi or bust! (I've been hoping Kai's international use of Kikuchi would fix this, but we'll see)

A port would be cool, but besides the new graphics and the multi-player system, how would this be more enjoyable than BT3? From the looks of it the fighting system still needs work and is a bit sloppy. My point is that gameplay wise this is almost a step back from Raging Blast 2.

I pointed out the costumes a couple weeks ago but nobody paid attention to my post, ah well its still cool.

Funny thing is I actually thought I was late on the info.
It's not too late. One day, it will be.

There's reason to believe this rumor is bogus.
– Ni-Oh is being completely remade from the ground up in Unreal Engine 4 exclusive for PlayStation Omni. A special Dynasty Warriors 8 will be released on Wii U and Vita, while a special Dead or Alive 5 will be release on Wii U and Playstation Omni later in 2013. Team Ninja also plans on making a side-scrolling remake of the NES Ninja Gaiden game for Wii U eShop, PSN and XBLA.
A "special Dead or Alive 5" was announced this weekend ... for PSVita. Notice how PSVita is not listed in that.
"I like the money it brings in, but Dragon Ball Heroes is the worst. That's actually the real reason I decided to start working on new material. I was afraid Bandai would make something irredeemably stupid like Super Saiyan 4 Broly." - Akira Toriyama, made up interview, 2013.

Isn't "Orbis" the codename being tossed around to developers from Sony, too, and not "Omni"...?

Not running with this one just yet.
