Already have this game on PC. Why not release a new series game? Rather then making the same old game again?

1 year after every other platform gets it, nice.

P.S. Why is a port of an almost one year old game getting the front page. Favoritism? Bias?

Played this on Xbox but couldn't get into it, ended up with 1 hour or so.

Might be one of the best fighting games available for switch at its time of release though.

Too bad I don't know anyone with a switch. I would totally buy a switch just to rebuy this game for the lanplay

The Switch is starting to become the Switch U
Just getting ports of games everyone already owns.

still hoping that Dragonball Online one day gets an official release in english (and not the crappy private server)

I ninja'd you by a week. More importantly the game's release date is set for October 21st in Japan. Comes with the first games story in the form of time vault scrolls, plus all of it's parrell quest. Rumored that the other consoles will have to pay for 19.99 upgrade pack for them to recieve the xbx content.

Your topic's title was "Dbx2" and the only people who understood what it was about was a few Dragon Ball fans such as myself.

Cheaper than developing a brand new Dragon Ball game and then risk the sales being absolute shit.

Wii U Pro.

I can get this on every other console and PC, why get this on objectively the inferior experience?

A tad bit late

B-because it's on Nintendo!

What? You don't want to play an MMO a year late on a 720p tablet?

Was it ever not? The first and only worth while release was also on the Wii U, same shit different smell

 

[fedehda]

I'd totally buy it. I've been waiting for the Switch version since always. I've bought the first one but I couldn't end it those days.

Good time for launch of this game on the Switch, this fall 1st party titles are pretty dry aside from Fire Emblem Warriors in which I don't plan on getting.

 

[Eddypikachu]

Yeah how dare nintendo not release this a year ago when the switch wasnt even released yet!!1!

 

[linkenski]

Why don't they make another regular Budokai game though? Why do they all have to have this awkward semi-3D 2D fighter gameplay with terrible lock-on camera? Budokai 1, 2 and 3 were excellent.

Bandai. Not Nintendo.

It's not a mainstream console and they're not going to take a huge risk if it ends up tanking in sales. I'd love to see "Burst Limit 2" or a "Budokai 4" on a current-gen console.

Infinite World was basically Budokai 3.5 just as Xenoverse 2 is Xenoverse 1.5.

 

[linkenski]

Last I heard Switch sells rather well and a Budokai game should technically have less content than a game like Xenoverse, plus Nintendo probably still wants to support third party exclusives down the road unless that was an Iwata-only thing.

If it were selling really well it would have third party support left and right. Not the case.

My sarcastic comment still stands, bandai couldnt have released this game a year ago with all the other releases of this game because the switch wasnt even out yet a year ago

Bandai did the right thing back then because barely anyone would have bought it.

Xenoverse 1 turned out alright. A friend of mine had the game so I tried it. It looked very similar to Battle of Z for my Vita. Haven't looked into XV2 so I may get this game.

I quite didn't like the Budakai Tenkaichi series. Those games were so unbalanced and almost every character are clones of each other. -o-'''

That is absolutely true, but for a DBZ fan they were amazing, especially BECAUSE of all the near-dupe characters. They had subtle differences which mirrored every single change the characters went through in the show, so you could do match-ups like ep.37 piccolo vs ep.130 gohan, etc.

This is my issue with games like the new Gundam vs Gundam titles, they sacrifice staying faithful to the shows by trying to balance everything, and it makes for an awful experience and ARGHHH don't mind me
