One of them is inevitably "DBZ Kinect". The second would be our yearly DBZ game, the rumored "Game Project Age 2012", which was mentioned they had started gathering feed back for in interviews before Ultimate Tenkaichi was even released. The third....who knows?
BTW, Nostal or Treevax, whatever you want to call him, is the same guy that has been leaking us videos of the past few finalized versions of DB games, revealing all the characters and stuff. He's been working on getting our DBZ games improved as well by working with his French community manager to gain access to Namco and show them his desires for future DBZ games: more giant bosses, more characters, more costumes, more attacks, mini games, new destruction, and the list goes on. Read his DeviantArt journal and then hop on over to his Facebook page to check out the actual images themselves:

Will his efforts effect the games the community receives? Who knows, only time will tell...

The 3rd game could be a portable game, maybe for PSVita, 3DS, or both.
James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.
Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

1. Kinect Dragon Ball Z
2. Raging Blast 3 (I know the sales were pretty bad of RB2 but they can't call another Z game as "Ultimate Tenkaichi 2" it's Ultimate so there should just be one with the said title, RB3 or similar).
3. Dragon Ball for 3DS/PSV.
Nintendo consoles tend to always have original Dragon Ball series' games are their exclusives, while the other consoles just DBZ games, ugh.
I'd like to see DBZ: Zenkai Battle Royale be developed for Xbox 360 and PS3, 'cos DBZ games online are terribly boring.

'Burst Limit 2', 'Zenkai Battle Royale Port', here's my wallet, thank you!

They're going to have create a whole new fighting engine if they expect people to buy another 'Game Project Age'-that or include a fuck-load of new animation.

I doubt they'd release 3 HD games this year.
It'll likely be:
Kinect
Handheld Game
Annual Dragon Ball Z Cycle Title
The latter could even be a port of ZBR. Who knows.

For online gaming purposes let it come already, but this arcade DBZ:ZBR game doesn't have a story mode though Bandai will probably figure something out.
2v2 isn't enough for Xbox LIVE game matches, it should be 6 Vs. 6 or 12 Vs. 12 even, this way we'd have lots of opponents to battle and talk while doing so. Trash talk during gaming = laugh & play.

It would be awesome if Zenkai came out over here. I am getting tired of the fighter DBZ games but Zenkai would be cool.
It would also be good if Bandai made a action, adventure, rgp, musou game.

They really shot themselves in the foot by not making a Burst Limit sequel when they had the chance. Even if they made one now (which I doubt they could because Dimps have moved on) it would be too little too late because they've destroyed their own reputation with all the mediocre Raging Blast games.

Raging Blast 2 is much better than RB1 and UT, so what destroyed their reputation was UT.
Though, as a fan of DB, I still have hope for a good DBZ game next time.

Well, for the annual game, I really hope, that Spike isn't going to make it. To be honest, Spike should just make the Kinect game, lol. Needs some serious DBZ fighting game now.
For the rumored handheld game, some sort of RPG or a fighting game would do the job for me...

Interesting. I'm not expecting a port of Zenkai Battle Royale, but it'd definitely be nice.

I pray that one day Zenkai Battle Royale will get a port release, I'm not sure if one of these games is going to be that, but for now I can only dream I guess...

It's probably this. I really don't want it to be ZBR though, honestly. Being able to only see the game and not play it has made me very curious but I doubt it's any different from the Sparking and RB games. I'd rather get a whole new title rebuilt top to bottom by a brand new team. ZBR is a neat little game, but I'd be disappointed if that was my annual game. Just my opinion though.
...Wait what are you doing? Are you still reading this? I finished what I had to say, why don't you move on to the next post?

Sigh I can go on and on with a wishlist on what i think'll make the "perfect" DBZ game but fot this years iteration I just hope its good. I didnt buy Ultimate Tenkaichi (hell I didnt even play it) I honestly believe that nine times out of ten, Spike is still developing the game and I just hope they scrap the UT engine as a whole and go back to the regular RB/BT style of gameplay of course with new combos and hopfully have them vary with different characters ( not with all of them but enough them) maybe have different combos depending on the size and speed of the character.
as far as content goes the usual is fine:
1.A nice paced story mode with the Freeza, Cell and Boo sagas with some GT and DB mixed in.
2. KEEP THE CHARACTER CREATOR.. just expand on it as much as possible within this short time frame.
3.Some new stages and stage destruction.
4.Planet explosions.
5. Decent amout of game modes.. i know now a days its all about playing online but I think the standard survival mode, time attack etc is still necessary and fun in not just DBZ games but ALL fighting games.
I know it kinda seems like I'm excited but really I'm almost fed the fuck up.
It's not too late. One day, it will be.
Peace And Power MF DOOM!

RB3 with 4 player combat and/or expanded character creator. I'm calling it. They could've been working on UT ideally while the rest of the team worked on RB1 and 2. So they probably had enough time/manpower to fully work on this.

If they just listened to Nostal's ideas, then we could have a great game...

I would love anything incorporating Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z together or Z with 23rd Tenkaichi Budokai.
Still didn't played a game, which had good 23rd Budokai in story, only few have it.
Damn, I really love Idainaru Son Goku Densetsu on PC Engine in terms of story mode!!

I was going to write a paragraph telling you the exact opposite. Instead I'll just tell you that I know a whole load of other people who have ideas that could make a much better fighting game than Treevax. His only asset tbh is that he has the ability (so it seems) and the time to draw, I mean retrace pictures, and edit them in Photoshop.
Anyway, if things go as planned, then maybe one of these DB games are what I'm expecting...

Why? Nostal is covering explanations for multiple gameplay styles; 2D Budokai/Burst Limit/Infinite World, 3D Sparking/Raging Blast, etc. I mean, what exactly are you asking for?
