Found a slightly better version of them.

Evil Bardock.

Hope Oozaru Evil Bardock gains a new technique, if not... Maintain "The Power of Darkness". Can't wait to see them!
You really like Bardock huh?
No love for Towa or Demigra yet I see. Do these cards have set power levels? You can't have a super strong Raditz than right?

Are there any signs that Victory Mission is getting picked up for English localization by Viz or anyone else? I'd guess "no". If not, have any (decent) scanlators tried to tackle the project?

"No" and "no".
For what it's worth, our documentation pages for the whole series are... mostly done? Sorta? We'd like to finish it? Eventually? Hopefully?

That surprises me. Not that it hasn't been scanlated, but that another section of the site is almost finished. HIYOOOOO!
But seriously, I am surprised that a spin-off (however artistically uninspired) of a series as popular as Dragon Ball hasn't attracted the efforts of at least one teenager with a Japanese/English dictionary, PhotoShop, and delusions of intellect.

Remember who is publishes these games. BNG, the people who'd are "MoneyHatting" from Sony and Microsoft to the point that they get lazy enough not to support any other game console company who don't give them money. If you want DBH to be release outside of Japan then you'd need for BNG to be cut from the contract of making Dragon Ball Games.
Dragon Ball Heroes God Mission = Best sets of missions so far

I fully understand that, but I'm just talking about a fan translation. The manga's been running for two and a half years, so I would have thought that at least one person would have attempted a translation, even if it was totally inept.

Why would Viz release this in the US? It's a manga based on a card game that is not released over here. Only the niche group of fans like us would pick it up and buy it.
Aww, I wanted the mask to spontaneously become monkey-shaped, preventing him from using his mouth beam.

I was only asking about an official release as a formality, showing that I would be willing to pay for it if it was (going to be) available for purchase. I didn't want to be all "where's the downloadz?" right off the bat. My "real" question was the one related to scanlations, because I felt certain that at least one would exist. Apparently not.

Not something I really care about, but I don't really think the games prove anything about feats. Anyway, that attack is a game mechanic called the "God Dama".

Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!
Spoiler:
Doctor. wrote:I've explained before, I'll just paraphrase myself.
Power levels establish tension and drama. People who care about them (well, people who care about them in a narrative) don't care about the big numbers or the fancy explosions. If you have character A who's so much above character B, who's the main character, you're gonna be left wondering how in the hell character B, the character we're supposed to care and root for, is going to escape the situation or overcome the odds. It makes us emotionally invested.
If character B doesn't escape the situation in a believable way that's consistent with previous events, then that emotional investment is gone. It was pointless tension, pointless drama made just to suck in the viewer. It has no critical value whatsoever. The audience is left believing that the author can just create whatever scenarios he wants and what happens to the characters is decided by whatever the author wants to happen, regardless of the events that happened in the story. Which, in fairness, is what happens, but the audience wants to be fooled. The audience wants to know that the world they're following has rules. That the world they're invested in isn't going to bend to external factors that are irrelevant to them.
An author can do whatever he wants with the characters, that's not false. But the author should also have the responsibility to make sure it fits in cohesively with the other events in the narrative he has created.
