On Sunday's they don't work, okay, but Monday's coming up so at least then I expect to see something or the full announcement.

They got the 100k likes they wanted so now give us the info, Namco Bandai.

Wow, those German fans sure can get things done! Can't wait for the announcement! (But I'm not getting my hopes TOO high...)

Oh God, there would probably be a huge outcry from the fans who liked this page! :lol:

That was the biggest piece of bullshit ever. People in the west didn't complain about that because the arcade version wasn't released here! Namco Bandai obviously didn't take complaints from Japanese fans to heart given a few weeks after that interview they announced a port of Dragon Ball Heroes on 3DS ...

At least that wasn't developed by Spike ...

I think Super DBZ got mixed reviews since most people thought it was going to be another Budokai type of game. I hope we get a Zenkai Battle Royale port, but I'm not giving my hopes up.

Didn't Super Dragon Ball Z get some nods and recognition at E3 2006 or something?

People disliked Super DBZ because those who played it were most likely Tenkaichi gamers and couldn't get used to the different gameplay.

It's like asking a Tenkaichi gamer to play Street Fighter IV and being unable to play the game because it requires to make combos in order to win the matches. It isn't a button masher like Spike's Dragon Ball Z games.

Eh, I wouldn't say that, I remember reading on GameFaqs and a lot of these so called 'vets' on the Budokai boards didn't like it either. Not to mention by that point only the first Sparking/Tenkaichi was out, which was rather medicore.

I've never had the chance to play it, unfortunately.
It is in his character to be rude and a bit crass. He's a hick, with no formal education. That is Son Goku. That is who he is.

Superman in an orange Gi was the bastard son of FUNimation. Its not The real character, it is as false as Chatku.

Some people genuinely felt the game didn't have a lot to offer. Not everyone who disliked SDBZ did so because they bad at it. :roll:

People disliked Super DBZ because it lacked the flash and pizazz of the Budokai and Tenkaichi games..
It's not too late. One day, it will be.

They were playing it wrong and have bad taste in video games, but I suppose that's beside the point.

Let's try to keep this one as on-topic as possible please. Thanks! :)

Isn't it like 3 or 4 in Europe by now? I didn't know "100k" meant "sometime after 100k we will think about maybe putting something out there at some point in the future".

They probably expected the Dragon Ball fandom to hit 100k by the time of their yearly mid May reveal in V-JUMP.

They shouldn't have said 100k if they weren't planning on ACTUALLY showing anything at 100k.
