DS #4894: Kamen Rider Dragon Knight (USA)

[HunterJ]

well it is SIMILAR to power rangers and the game is actually half decent! that surprised me as i thought it wud be like the power rangers (FTW) sucky games
but its actually ok and i take back my previous statement!
this is pretty cool and the announcement of another upcoming game sounds good

This show got localised in Japan, they dubbed over the original American voices, pretty hilarious.

Personally, I prefer Super Sentai over Kamen Rider, but have loved both series for decades ; )

I think the robot show you may be thinking of is Red Baron, which afaik got released on DVD in Hawai?

Or maybe it was one of the Metal Hero shows, which also got shown in some parts of South America, Brazil, and the Philippines.

Black/RX were very GrimDark ; ) then again, so was the simply wonderful KR Blade which imho was even better...

I only know Powerrangers... xD When I was a small child I actually liked it, nowadays... Hell I can only ask myself WHY I wantched it at all or WHY I loved it so much... xD

I don't think that we had that Dragon Riders stuff over hre in Germany, can't remember at all.
But we had... uh... someone above me mentioned that red robot... Well it's been a guy and I think he was working for a fire department (if I can remember that right) and wearing his cool red dress there he could even walk through fire for a short period of time...
He's been some kind of Power Ranger too. xD Helping people and stuff. But I don't know if there were ever more like him in this series. I could only watch three episodes or so, becauuuuse my mother didn't allow me to watch "crap like that". ^^

No offence, but the overseas versions of these shows can't even compare to the originals, its like comparing sandlot baseball to Major League..And if you choose to learn Japanese, they are even more rewarding, the rubbish subtitles out there for these shows never, ever do them justice...

Well, i played this game for a while, the current 5 stages.

and so far, it's a fairly simple beat them up, the controls scheme is pretty easy.

L/R to cycle through your card deck.
A to use cards
B to jump
Y for light attack
X for heavy attack.

There are some slight variations to the game, but mostly it's just another word for kill them all!!

The only thing that i am not used to is that after defeating a major boss, i do not get any reward or new cards, instead i got my new card from leveling up..

Speaking of Leveling up, you will gained experience after each stage, with bonus exp if you managed to deal alot of damage( getting hit will not penalized you, if it does, there's something wrong with that, you are a lone rider fighting so many baddies, and let's not kid ourselves, just like power rangers, these heroes do not come with fighting many villains 101 , so of cos they will get hit)

So, after you have accumulated enough exp and level up, you will gain a new card or a new ability.

This movie is not from the game but it can explain more or less what kamen riders are

 

[Overlord Nadrian]

Never heard of the series, but the game kind of interests me, I just love sidescroller beat'm ups

 

[Seicomart]

Heh, Kamen Rider Kabuto really was an awesome show, so many good characters! I still rate Hibiki as being superior, but Kabuto is a wonderful introduction to Kamen Rider, so excellent choice of vids there, azotyp!!! ; )

You can Unlock Cards and Riders through Ventara Mode
mostly by doing the EX Missions or Mission 5 from the chapters

[GeekyGuy]

Well, so far, it's a perfectly acceptable guilty pleasure. I don't know anything about this franchise, and it's a very simplified brawler/fighter, but I have to admit, I kinda dig it. It looks good and controls well.

 

[sa1amandra]

kamen rider fan for years.
Dragon Knight was the best Japanese > English remake of any hero show yet!

Tapping an enemy in a multiple hostile takedown will switch the lock to the tapped enemy
Pressing your rider on the touch screen will charge our advent bar
Down and Up change your battle line (in a 3D fighting arena-like soul caliber)

Okay thanks salamander, guess i haven figure out the important part of this game yet.

 

[FlameTakuya]

Ugh tokusatsu... Not a fan at all. Hate the damn things.

I do have some friends who might be interested though. Guess I'll tell them...

backwards forwards (d-pad) for a slow, but guard breaking attack
