Ahhh, 6th grade. . . all the kids on town (and in the whole country!) had this moderate to dangerous addiction to Dragon Ball; not anime in general, but JUST Dragon Ball, its peak in the Z sagas. Kids would do hard to believe acts to get that one special edition poster, figure, hard to get Yokos (pogs), and in weird cases, an original DBZ SNES cartridge.
I was one of the lucky ones who had that rich friend who managed to acquire on of these last copies. Strangely enough, all the others who would get a DBZ game got the very same, DBZ Super Butouden 3. Weird coincidence.
The premise of the game is simple: The tournament takes place at the beginning of the Majin Boo Saga, with Fat Boo and Majin Vegeta as playable characters. . . and that’s it. You see, there’s not much to see in the past DBZ games, since most of us just cared if we could use Goku and make Kame-hame-ha’s like crazy. Ahh, when so little gave us so much fun.
ShiryuGL shows us a little of what this game offers: Great SNES graphics, nice music, and Big Bang Attack!







I’ve always liked Super Butoden 2 more than 3. 2 had an actual story mode, where you would train, fight cell, fight cell’s minions, fight cell, fight cell, and then fight whatever enemies from one of the dragon ball z movies. the gameplay felt a little bit slower, but something about it just felt right.
I remember playing Butouden 2 just 1 time and, yeah, it felt slower. . .
True, but the aura flames were bigger!
