While a consistant gameplay style would've been nice, I must agree that we can probably infer it to be the "spiritual successor" to Advance Adventure (kinda like how Legends was for the Sparking! games).

Not that the new gameplay style looks bad. Quite the contrary, actually. ;)
I consider Legends to be the spiritual precursor to the Supersonic Warriors games, actually.

Now, onto the important part! Woohoo! The 23rd Budokai and the Saiyan Arc are my favorite parts! I'm ready for this!

Sorry for the double-post, guys.

I found this while searching for images and video of the game. Looks like these pics were taken at Jump Festa. It has some really cool gameplay images if you want to take a look.

All I had seen so far was this and all I had read in terms of comments were people speculating if the Priate Robot was a random enemy or if the Red Ribbon Army was gonna make some big appearance between the 23rd Budokai and the invasion of the Saiyans.

But it's a shame... don't DS Dragon Balls generally not have a Japanese voice option?

As far as I know the PSP was the only hand held to ever get dual audio- then again on the DS's crappy speakers who needs it

Me, of course. :wink:

Dang, that would be disappointing. Because with an RPG, it's not as easy as learning the controls and buying the Japanese version. For people who aren't able to read the language, it seems like the English version is the only way we will be able to play properly.

Well, I guess it would be possible to learn the attacks and such, with a lot of extra work. And we don't know 100% if it would only be in language, or if there is any voice acting at all, right?

Coming into a DS thread and saying that the speakers are crap... Are you trying to be flamed? :lol:

I've got nothing against the DS- I love my DS to death but there's no point in denying how bad the sound quality on it is

I'm not following you. I've barely ever messed with a PSP. I went from GB to GBC to GBA to GBASP to DS Lite. My view is askew due to very limited experience with other handhelds. People think I'm a fanboy for it, but it was more a matter of affordability, really.

Speaking of such, I'll be getting a DSi soon.

Well, if Buku Ressen and Origins are anything to go by, Europe does! :D

And we get the original cover arts as well... I know all you other continents are jealous.

With DS games it seems like we're just getting the US releases, I'm glad I picked up Origins before the whole ratings debacle, I haven't seen it back on the shelves yet.

Well, if that's the case, I might try and get a European version shipped or something.

Because I couldn't find one today, either. Although there is one on Ebay.
