I think 15 characters is enough... The only new characters that they really need to make a functional Dragon Ball story mode, considering the extras from the Japanese/PAL version, are:

-#8 or Blue
-23 Budokai Chichi

+Desert Thief Yamcha, Kid Kuririn, one of Piccolo's demons and Old Piccolo Daimao would be nice, but not really necessary if they're just going to briefly show Dragon Ball's story.

How do we know that they even plan on counting the extra characters in the Wii game as "new" characters in the new game? They're probably adding 20-30 new characters on top of the extra characters in the Wii version.(The extras were Europe/Japan exclusives I believe.)

Because they don't say they are going to put 20/30 more, they just said the game is going to have 150 or more. And since the Wii version we had 135. Nobody said they were included in the new characters.

Actually.. what the heck are you talking about?

Just forget it, you'll understand when the game is closer to release. It's really hard to explain, but I'll bring it up again in the future. :!:

instead of the regular story mode they should make a dragon ball version journey to the west. Use the dragonball characters but keep the journey to the west world story and costumes.

Isn't there an actual Toriyama drawing where Goku, Kuririn, and Piccolo are in Journey to the West costumes? That'd be something to pull from.

Okaaaay, so they've literally just pasted Piccolo's head on a different model to get Nail, and they've just added a goatee to Vegeta's face to make King Vegeta.

That's frickin' gay/lazy/incredibly gay.

What? That's how they look. Nail looks exactly like Piccolo, or close enough you'd not be able to tell them apart if the had the same clothes on. And the only difference besides the gotee between the Vegeta's is that the elder Vegeta has slightly darker skin and is slightly taller. It's the same as with King Cold. He's just an even bigger version of Form Two Freeza.

Lets, see what I miss saying... Oh my god! King Vegeta, King Kold and Nail? They do listen! They better have 23rd to End of King Piccolo Saga Goku next to Kid Goku... Got to have more DB characters... And Meteor? Why do they alway sound much cooler? Anyway, now there is space stage, gameplay should be at least as good if not better than the last one and story mode? Surprise me DBZ Sparking! Meteor, surprise me please...

.. . Day and night system? :O now give me a storymode that's worth my time and you've got a customer... :D.


Heh, you should be able to cut off the tails of Saiyans during battle. What with that happening all throughout the series and stuff. And while we're at it... grab the tails of those affected by the weakness (Goku, Raditz, Gohan... probably everyone other than Nappa and Vegeta, and I'd have to guess King Vegeta as well).

Heck, while we're at it... have Piccolo throw rocks at Goku to paralyze his limbs. ... ur... or not.
