The commercial is hella sweet.

Indeed.

Are those bits of animation going to be cutscenes in the game? Or are they just meant for the CM?

I wasn't sure if it would be confirmed for US release...

But now that it is, I am gloriously glad! I kind of wonder how they'll work platforming into a Dragon Ball game, though... hopefully there aren't any jumping puzzles...

Dragon Ball Advance Adventure arrives in Japan on November 18, 2004, and we'll bring you any news if this game gets picked up for release outside of Japan.

I don't think it is yet.

But I doubt they could overlook it.

... darn, I had some sort of blind hope that the fact that IGN was covering it would mean that it was going to be released.

My mistake for overlooking that bit... though, I'm kind of curious. How popular is Dragon Ball compared to DBZ? Anyone know?

That is an interesting question.

But considering the style of gameplay, I'm guessing it won't be terribly text heavy *except for of course the story cutscenes.*

And if it does get picked up, modification/butchering is possible. But seeing how different FUNimation treats Dragonball kind of gives me hope.

Yes, it likely won't be text heavy... so importing it won't be too much of a pain, since I know most of the events that occur, anyhow (thank you, Goku Den).

I'm not too worried about what FUNi would do to it... the latter Legacy of Goku games weren't overly bad, though they were rife with a few inaccuracies.

Still just mostly concerned about how jumping will work into the DB universe.

Well, I'm just mad about the removal of Head Cha La and Angels from Supersonic Warriors, mostly.

EDIT: And I guess the dub voices aren't "classic," but I can understand that replacement somewhat.

Endishiki · Post by **Endishiki** » Thu Oct 07, 2004 11:32 pm

It's a somewhat understandable removal, concerning that most of DBZ's fanbase in the US seems to consist of braindead teenagers. If you were such a teen, what would you want... an upbeat, happy, somewhat nonsensical chant or a hard-backed rock ensemble?

I don't like it much, myself, but the fans here make up only a small portion of the fanbase.

... as far as the voices go, some of them are okay. Except for Freeza's... Freeza's dub voice sucks.

Hahaha, that's actually the one I enjoy the most just cause it is so gosh darned funny.

But the weird thing was, Head Cha La was remixed into an almost "hard-rock" tune and there were no vocals. And I'm pretty sure Angels was similarly remixed.

So I don't know what they were afraid of. The tune they replaced both with is something they made up that appears in no version of the dub.

That footage from the commercial looks real sweet. Now I'm convinced to actually get this game if it does come out in the US. If not, I might get an import if this game turns out to be good.

It is really fast paced too. That's something I think most people have been desiring in a Dragonball game for years.

it was freakin nice to see updated dragonball art!
I'd kill to re-watch db like that!!

Magic Box seems to have more screenshots. Most look old, but a few of them seem new, I think.

This is the first time I've noticed Juckie Chun, anyway.

Looks like a neat game! Next game to buy!

Here's some shots that I took from the GBA promo video.
