Jump Super Stars is a 2D, sprite-based fighting game developed by Ganbarion and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo DS, released 08 August 2005. The game features over 200 characters from various franchises in Shueisha's Jump anthologies, including a significant number from Dragon Ball. The game was formally announced in the 2004 No. 36 issue of Weekly Shōnen Jump[1][2], and received regular promotion in Shueisha magazines leading up to it release.[3]
The game received a direct follow-up, Jump Ultimate Stars, the following year.
Gameplay
Playing similarly to games like those in Nintendo's Smash Bros. series, players control characters on multi-level, platform-based stages attempting to knock each other out of the stage. Up to four players may be on screen at one time. Characters as classified as either fully playable battle characters, assist characters, or helper characters. Character selections are further broken down into different koma (or "panel", as in the panels making up a page in a comic book) types. All help characters are single koma, while all assist characters are either two or three koma. Playable battle characters can range from four to seven koma.
Players arrange the collected characters' koma on the 5x4 grid (with twenty available "spots") into a respective deck; each deck must contain at least one battle character, one support character, and one helper character, though the player is free to leave open spots if they choose or are otherwise unable to fill it with the available characters. Placing certain characters directly next to each other on the deck may trigger additional boosts.

Legacy
Following the two Famicom Jump role-playing games on the Nintendo Famicom, Shueisha/Jump crossover experiences were effectively non-existent until Jump Super Stars in 2005.
Jump Super Stars received a direct follow-up the following year, Jump Ultimate Stars, also on the Nintendo DS. The sequel expanded on the existing game setup with additional franchises and characters represented, and also incorporated online play.
Following Jump Super Stars, regular crossover games (generally tied in with major anniversaries) saw releases across various platforms. These include Battle Stadium D.O.N., J-Stars Victory Vs., and Jump Force.
As of 2006, Jump Super Stars had sold 517,514 copies according to Media Create.[5]
Additional Notes
Jump Super Stars includes a special tag-team attack with Piccolo and Dr. Mashirito featuring the two using the fusion dance from Dragon Ball to create a new character who attacks with the word botsu (meaning "rejected"). Both the original Demon King Piccolo and Mashirito were originally based on Kazuhiko Torishima, Akira Toriyama's original editor, who frequently rejected Toriyama's manuscripts.
