Looks incredible! Some of that background art is amazing. Reminds me of the best SNES JRPGs.

Wow, this sure looks like an awesome rpg... Hope it's as good as it looks.

Also, I hope that this time they do some follow up games.

This game looks SO MUCH FUN. :shock: And it takes place during one of my favorite eras too X3 (23rd Budoukai ~ Saiyajin Arc )
On hiatus.

I will be officially pissed if this game isn't released outside of Japan.

This looks like a mix of some of the best handheld DBZ games: Legacy of Goku series and Origins!

It's also safe to say that by the looks of that gameplay video, after 23rd Budokai, you'll be able to do those filler episodes relating to Goku and ChiChi trying to deal with that fire based on that short clip of Goku speaking with Ox-King with a background of flames.

This game looks incredible. And I think it will be released over here (minus the Kai, unless FUNimation plans to release Kai).

Oh man.... this looks exactly how I would want a Dragon Ball RPG to look.

VIDEO GAME GODS! I BEG YOU! PLEEEEEESE GIVE US A GOOD RELEASE, OUTSIDE JAPAN! NOT DUB ONLY!

Do many RPGs have a Japanese language option? I know Blue Dragon does, but I don't know of any others.
Yo! Cal's the name. Nice to meet you!
Lover of all that is pure and fun in the worlds of Dragon Ball, Jim Henson and so forth!

Eternal Sonata did, but I haven't seen any other RPG with a Japanese option.
Just another Dragon Ball fangirl in the world.

DB & Tiger and Bunny are my main fandoms, along with many other animes.

If it come out in America before Kai does, which it most certainly will be, I am assuming it will be renamed Dragonball Z: Attack of the Saiyans or something to that extent.

There may be size limit issues with the DS card, depending on what size they use, that might prevent dual language tracks.

The game shouldn't be too huge, I wouldn't think. But they haven't even confirmed it will have any voice audio track, have they? I would prefer none at all over a dub track. Not because I'm a dub hater, just because I'm obsessive about stuff like that.

You'd be surprised at how much flash memory holds these days, especially with compression. I have a cyclods cart that reads an 8gb MicroSD card.

Well, I don't know about HQ clean, but I extracted two different backgrounds from the website--one from the SWF, and one from the page itself that seems to be used behind the menu flash of the actual website.

SWF BG
Website BG

It's got the logo on it, but the rips are pretty clean otherwise. I can also post separated versions of the character art used on the page too, if anyone is interested.
