Due out this summer in Japan, the game will feature over 100 fighters in both one-on-one and team battles. Players will be able to employ “Ultimate Arts” finishing moves, as well as support from characters like Bulma and Chichi via “Z Assist.”
I had to do a double take when i saw that SSJ Goku vs Freeza picture these sprites look so much like Balthazar's.

New Dragon Ball Z 2D fighting game revealed for 3DS.
Quote
Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butōden slated for summer with roster of 100+, Z Assist
The April issue of Shueisha's V Jump magazine is announcing on Saturday that the 2D fighting game franchise Dragon Ball Z: Butōden will arrive on the Nintendo 3DS this summer. Bandai Namco Games' Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butōden will feature over 100 fighters in both one-on-one and team battles.
Players can employ "Ultimate Arts" finishing moves, and the game will feature unique layouts and stages. With "Z Assist," Bulma and Chichi (among other characters) will provide support to players via Bulma's inventions from Capsule and Chichi's fury (which fills the screen with a giant speech balloon of her venting).

That sprite style looks a bit too close to the Z2 one. Guess they saw what a big hit the fangame was and tried something on their own?
Still looks pretty hype and seems we're getting GT guys too because of the Nuova Shenron dude

Here we go with the "official company sprites look similar to fan style" and I await the "official company took ideas from fans." It's going to be Evil Ken/Violent Ken all over again.
Game looks nifty though.
EDIT: Also, I can't wait for them to remove the characters from versions outside of Japan because we never got some of the specials. Say goodbye to Tarble and Chilled.

That mostly happened in the past (Like during the Budokai games era where they removed the Neko Majin Z content from B2 or when Supersonic Warriors also got its NMZ assist character removed) but it's not a common practice nowadays so I really doubt they'll remove anything. We're even getting Jaco in Xenoverse worldwide.

I'm not saying that it's bad. But people saying that ideas were used from a [set of] character(s) from a fan based source is ridiculous. Giant companies are perfectly capable of coming up with their own ideas on their own. Besides the fact that they're both based off of existing characters that have been around for, literally, 20 years, there's always a chance of having similar ideas as far as attacks are concerned. Overlapping ideas happen all the time. I think the mentioning of "idea theft" is stupid.
Whis, Bils and SSJ God Goku didn't get removed from Xenoverse. I Can't think of any DBZ game that removed characters outside of Japan because the movie was never released there.
Those characters are from BoG which was released in the US. I don't know about elsewhere though. I just recall the Neko Majin Z and Kurīza thing from a few games ago.

crossing my fingers that this doesnt turn into another tap battle.
Several of those chars are obviously assist only.
I can see in the screenshots
playable: Raditz Nappa armored Vegeta ssjgoku ssj2gohan Superbuu(or kid buu? One of them ) Gogeta Cell Freeza
Non playable Dr Briefs Dende Yajirobe Bulma Chichi Presenter
Unknown: Yamcha Mr satan
If I had to bet I would say that devilman and a bunch of those others are in just as strikers.
Im amused they have so many of my personal picks for a fullgame :)

Neko Majin Z is definitely a different issue, there is a licence for him over here and I never even knew he was in any Budokai game (having never played the Japanese versions). If he was removed, it wasn't because his title didn't come out, but just because no one would even understand. Meanwhile, for Tarble and Chilled, the connection is pretty obvious even if you haven't seen their movie.

BoG wasn't released over here and yet I'm pretty sure we still have them (well I haven't played XV yet but I'd have heard about it). Think worldwide. Ah, right, Kuriiza, I do remember about him. Yeah, he was cut over here, even though the manga is licensed here.

I see they'll be putting some GT villains in there as well. Here hoping they will put the rest of the Shadow Dragons (or at least part of the rest) this time, because it feels weird to include the Shadow Dragons saga when nearly every game always only includes three of the seven Dragons (two of them just being a recolor from each other).

Considering that the 3DS allows for DLC, there's a remote possibility that we may get more characters if the game does well enough. So that might be cool.

we are all assuming they keep the butoden gameplay (which i hope they do). There has been another butoden , in 3d not long ago, the main barrier for a full butoden in 2d has always been character number.
The biggest 2d one had 27 playable characters and was for saturn.
Kai ultimate butoden had 51 playable characters http://www.kanzenshuu.com/generalinfo/reviews/ultimatebutoden_char_select.png
We are talking about a select screen four times bigger than saturns and twice as big as its predecessor. I want to be positive but im cautiously optimistic instead.

Yeah I'm being cautiously positive as well, they are boasting so much with the character number and assists being there, I wonder how the gameplay will be, assists can be annoying. Can't wait to see those damn nice sprites in motion.
This looks promising for now, now let's hope they actually release it outside of Japan (and not keep it all for themselves like they did with Ultimate Butoden, the only other DBZ game that looked remotely interesting and fun to me).
Please be good :thumbsup:

For that scale I don't think the toon-shaded 3d models would work, it'll be a shoddy blurry mess. Those are definitely sprites, pixel art.

Only if they go for a classic select screen, but maybe they use something like select wheel form Budukai because of the high amount of chars in the game.
Btw. maybe you could add to your second post, that the char roster that you posted is from Dragon Ball Kai: Ultimate Butōden, it seems that some members are already confused and belief this is the roster of Dragon Ball Z Extreme Butōden.
I always wished Arc system works would do a DBZ game one day too haha.....that's funny as hell^^
Weren't they the ones who made the Supersonic Warriors games?

I have a very strong feeling that this game was brought on, because of hyper DBZ. The spirits look drool worthy, but I'm only reminded of balthazars animations. Even once the games released, it'll only give birth to new ideas for the Z2 team. Which is great, so I'll be waiting for a video Trailer, or the official release.

Nah not in the sense most of us wanted to see back then with Capcom fighters VS Sammy (which was an arc system works thing)...There was supposed to be a Cross over like T VS C but it didn't happen.. The Basara X game was just a damn good collab on a Non Crossover fighting game (of course)
I still wish it happened though....but hopefully that GGX VS BB crossover happens....those Japanese fans some years ago was rooting for it hard^^

Nah that was Banpresto...(IMO the better team of Bandai). They usually do some hot work opposite of the more so US Bandai team... Ive been a fan of Banpresto since the old super famicom days. Usually when they touch a fighting game it comes out pretty damn cool^^
Oh, well this is interesting. Now we can see Kaioken and Genki-Dama down by a pro.
He never mastered 'em himself. I think he can't even use double kaioken and above.

The game looks like is going to be incredible but I highly doubt I will play it since I don't have plans to own a 3ds.
About being 100 characters and strikers I don't know how complete would be their moveset, also how different would be a striker attack to another's, not just how they perform it but what they do to the opponent.
Possible that they already started 2013 working on the game, a game with such a big roster needs a lot of work, even if for example half of the chars are assist chars, it would still need a lot of time to create all the sprites, and there are many other things that can slow down the development because it is a license game.

How do you feel about ARC using your same art style for there upcoming game http://i2.wp.com/shoryuken.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/dbz-extremebutoden-scan.jpg
How do you feel about One Piece using the same art style as Sailor Moon?
Also, I fucking called all of this "copying styles" bullshit. Let's stop it now. I'll be deleting all of the posts mentioning it.
Dude, CHILL. You seem to be the only one who is taking offense at this. Unless of course the posts were all deleted. Most of us just did a double take(hell even Balth did himself.), then used a bit of common sense to say "yes it does look similar but of course it's not the exact same art style nor is Balth working on it." Your taking a RATHER INSIGNIFICANT ISSUE and literally blowing it out of proportion. Besides the fact that we are all basically praising Balth because his art style is amazing and we thought it looked good enough to be in an official title.
But still...chill out man. I mean I didn't read the whole thread on the original game announcement, but what did read was nothing of the level indicating "art theft." or "idea theft." Just "inspiration." - Which in fact does happen. Studios taking some inspiration from fans. Yes, you mostly see it in the indy scene as they have absolutely no problems admitting it and WAY less in the mainstream. But you still see it. (Mostly because big studios can't seem to humble themselves enough to admit they took inspiration from us "lowly fans.")

The game doesn't look at all like Balthazar's sprites. Also, the 2013 copyright found on the scans means it was definitely being worked on before Balth got to his current style. Stop acting like every vague resemblance means they must have taken "inspiration" from the fans, the fan scene isn't as big and important as you think it is. Chill.

I also brought up how great it would be if the 2D Budokai games came back and I mentioned Hyper Dragon Ball Z to see if they heard of it. They told me they are aware of this game and was really amazed at how many views the video got and they are glad to see that there are passionate Budokai fans out there.
This is a legitimate website, by the way, even if they write like twelve-year-olds.
The perceived resemblance to Balthazar's work isn't just on Mugenguild. It seems to be in a lot of comment sections of different websites that are reporting on Extreme Butouden. But I would guess that the similarity is because they both use a fairly limited number of colours that mimic the anime's look. I'd be extremely surprised if they were trying to imitate Balthazar.
Oh, and Xenoverse has the Ghost Nappa voice from Dragonball Z Abridged (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKWxRtn5-Yg#t=1067). So, yes, official companies do look at fanworks, though they probably aren't going to be influenced by them very often.

If it was for DS we could at least emulate it (after it comes out). I think we will have to wait for some years before the 3DS emulation becomes successful.

The false select screen hints at 24 characters, which is reasonable. Counting 3 to 4 assists per character, we reach the 100+ chars they mention.
Looking at lifebars only, the portraits show which are the playable chars in all these screenshots : - Goku - Vegeta - Kid Gohan - Future Trunks - Freeza - Gotenks - Kid Buu - Ginyu - Piccolo - Android 18 - Kuririn - Fat Buu - Nappa
No idea if SSJ Goku and normal Goku will be separate or not. Hopefully they're not facing Mugen limitations with transformations ! :ninja:

I dunno, we've already seen Cell Saga SSJ Gohan, and the site shows base form Gohan, I really don't imagine these two forms of him having their own separate spot. At best, it can depend on the character.

Neko Majin Z (seeing that the roster looks very similar to SuperSonic Warriors2) 50. Saibaman (seeing Nappa)

Post by: Omega on February 23, 2015, 10:44:31 am
In the official Website, when I go to characters and click Gohan, I can almost say that their sprites are upgrades from Super Sonic Warriors 2. I could say that Gotenks in the screenshot from the scan, also looks like an upgrade from the same Game. A guess also is that most Characters in Super Sonic Warriors 2 could be playable including seperate versions of Kid and Adult Gohan like Vegeta and Majin Vegeta.
As far as the roster goes, If Nuova Shenron is a assist, there is indeed a big chance for us to get Omega Shenron. This could mean that we could get a SSJ 4 Character. I am guessing that this is SSJ 4 Gogetta instead of SSJ4 Goku and SSJ4 Vegeta. This Game looks Excellent.

(http://network.mugenguild.com/balthazar/misc/comparisonssw.PNG) Left: a screenshot of the game from the official website. Right, two sprites from Super Sonic Warriors 2. Yes it's obvious they reusing/redrawing art from that game in some cases, what could this mean for the gameplay? Looking at the characters/background composition it does look like a more traditional Street Fighter-esque fighter, so perhaps no free flight like in SSW, but we don't know how much the game will zoom out when the characters move away from eachother.

It also had a striker system set up in a similar manner.

I cant help but notice most of those screenshots either have poses or have the characters floating while attacking, which was what ss2 did.
( below is the closest thing i could find of the whole cast on ss, strikers included ) (http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2012/177/6/a/dragon_ball_z__supersonic_warriors_2_characters_by_khuraudo-d550mcx.png)

Yeah, the 3DS has a resolution of 800x240 (3D) / 400x240 (per eye), good luck with that not looking like shit on an HD TV screen. Even if you like pixel arts, it'll still be a pain on your eyes. Never mind, I realize that's not different from the "original" resolution of 320x240 of olde... I didn't see the 3DS that way.

Son Goku is said to be the game's standard all-around character. He possesses fairly good reach on his moves, as well as speed, making him easy to play as. On top of all that, Goku is also quite capable with aerial combos. His signature special moves are the Kaio-ken 20x Kamehameha, and the Genkidama.
Son Gohan (Teenage version) has a dash attack that works well as a 50/50 mix-up game. Hit the heavy attack button while dashing to perform a sliding attack that has a long reach, or hit a different attack button to go for an overhead instead of the slide. Apart from the dash attack, Gohan's signature moves include the Masenko and the Bokusei Kidan.
Meanwhile, Vegeta is said to be a speedy character possessing tricky maneuvers and attacks. These will give you the upperhand in combat as you overwhelm your opponent and create opportunities to ham it up with combos. His signature specials are Final Flash and Galick Gun.
Last but not least, Trunks (Future Super version) is a character who can pin his opponents down from mid-range distance with heavy attacks. In spite of those options, Trunks also possesses moves that let him charge at his opponents to close the distance when necessary, bringing the fight into close-quarters range. His special moves include the Buster Flash and the Buster Cannon.

From further detailed inspection: it looks like a cross between cvs sprites and balthazars. What's giving me that impression is the dark shading. (Balthazar) and the Sprite sizes (cvs)

They're bigger than CVS sprites. I already checked that ^
(http://i.imgur.com/7jD5geE.png) C-18 and Ryu. Kyo and Gotenks. I can't see Goku and Vegeta feet, so I can't compare them.
But I did it with the first scan that Girard showed and I figured out they were bigger. If you want to resize them to CVS size, it should be at least at 65%. I checked that before too. Here those examples, I've done them quickly again:

This game looks amazing ; _ ;
I'm worried about is that the sprites have such a weird resolution that they won't fit in with the rest of MUGENs. Although HD settings and weird individual scaling could probably make that work :P

Post by: HadeS on March 20, 2015, 06:55:28 pm
You aren't the only one, Walto. The problem is that, those sprites aren't LR, HR or even HD. They're 'MR'. I think they'll still look good being rescaled, not the best but good enough to enjoy them against other chars (I'm picky about those things).
I want those sprites. I can't wait to see them with a better resolution, they're always resizing them.

then i must have misinterpreted what i thought you were implying
What I was saying is that J Legend Retsuden was Japan only (as a compilation of old games), and Extreme Butouden includes a part of it (Super Butouden 2), and together with other elements (like the previous 3DS DBZ games being Japan only) this makes me think more and more that Extreme Butouden will also stay as Japan only, rather than make everything worldwide including Super Butouden 2 (I don't expect Extreme to come out worldwide without Super 2 either).

I was wondering who it was too, couldn't quite recognize the face at first. I don't think it's #18, you'd see at least some blond hair somewhere on the side. This face is all white with a blank background.

Title: Re: Dragon Ball Z Extreme Budoten [2D fighter for 3DS]
Post by: Byakko on March 23, 2015, 04:34:54 pm
Mostly white face, absence of blond hair, general absence of hair in the background dropping to either side of the face, and the low quality of the image and the portrait being mostly white makes it possible that there is that lock of white hair in the middle of the forehead. I can't really recognize him too well but he's the only one I can think of that fits - more so than #18.

What absence of blond hair? It's right there on the side of her face. Besides, Supreme Kai's an assist. You can see him right next to Recoome in the part where all the assists show up.
Also clear lack of purple skin. Seriously guy.

Bad video quality at work, I was sure that was a white-dark background and I could only see some alien-like face. Yeah okay, those are definitely blond hair.
I was actually thinking that swarm of characters were not necessarily all assist-only.
I have a feeling that all of those will probably be assist only. If the website is anything to go by, and forms for characters like Goku and SSJ Goku are different slots, then the roster is pretty much already known by know through the scans and screenshots we've gotten.
Goku SSJ Goku SSJ God Goku Revival of F outfit Goku Cell Games Gohan SSJ2 Cell Games Gohan Ultimate Gohan Vegeta SSJ Vegeta SSJ Future Trunks SSJ Gotenks Kuririn Piccolo Raditz Nappa Ginyu Final Form Freeza Android 18 Perfect Cell Fat Buu Kid Buu Beerus Bardock LSSJ Broly
That's 24 right there. Though there's always the chance that forms of characters don't count or that there's gonna be a few hidden characters not on the website. But I feel that's mostly it, an impressive enough number of playable characters for the first entry in a sprite-based game.
Also, regarding Super Butouden 2, isn't it just a download code to get the game off the eShop? I don't think it's part of the game like you're thinking, DKDC, at least nothing that I've seen says that. But I could be wrong. You can see the word download next to it in the trailer. The only thing that would change in the west is them not giving a code to download it. I also saw someone posting that it will have its music replaced, due to the Yamamoto scandal, but I can't verify that. He did work on the game's music though.

Super Butouden 2 is probably not part of the game, it's going to be a download code as a bonus yeah most likely. But the thing is, I don't imagine they'd do an overseas edition that skips a bonus like that (a download code for a full game ! even a SNES retro one), and at the same time I don't imagine they'll bother retranslating the game from J Legend Retsuden when they didn't do it the first time, so the only way these two points are compatible is if the game doesn't come out at all overseas... That's what I'm thinking, anyway. It'd be a good enough start if the game came over here without Super 2, sure, but that seems like an important deal to skip. Unless I'm the only one who cares about a retro game like that.

It'd be annoying if they end up sharing mostly the same movelist between transformation. The way I see it, either they have mostly the same movelist (with just different supers and such) and they don't count as separate characters, or they count as separate characters and they're very different. But there's always Cell Saga Gohan and SSJ2 Cell Saga Gohan, as well as Vegeta and SSJ Vegeta (with the same outfit, to boot) that make it seem like they might not have different movelists. Plus Revival of F Goku.

I don't know, I don't think they'd pass up on making money on this one just because they couldn't bundle a 21 year old game (even if it is good) with it. Most people probably only care about the shiny new game anyway, and if they wanted to play Super Butouden 2 that bad they could always just emulate.

just look at C20 animation on the top right or C16's hair... If they were too damn lazy to properly animate an assist char who only has a couple of actions anyway, I highly doubt we get to see a well animated game at all. This thought is strengthend by the fighting sequence of Goku & Vegeta in the beginning where the frames just jump (it looks like they forgot to do the inbetweens). Also it looks like the Great Sayaman kick is also just a frame and not animated... :behead:

Yeah, but like I was saying last time, remember that they DIDN'T port the previous 3DS DBZ games to the West, so yes, they just might pass up on "making money" (because it's really probably not as simple as "just port it to the West, it'll make money"). It's a list of hints that point toward this one also not coming over here, really. I'd love nothing more than to be wrong, of course.

Post by: BPTM2694 on March 23, 2015, 07:22:24 pm
I get what you're saying, and a release in the west is definitely iffy, but the previous two somewhat similar DBZ games Arc System Works worked on made their way to the west, and they could always try digital only to make it less hard on them, so who knows. And it just felt like you were giving the Butouden 2 reason more weight than it had, but I guess I was wrong on that. I don't really care if it comes to the west anyway cause I'd rather just stick with the Japanese version, but it'd suck for those who couldn't. And if those previous two DBZ 3DS games were fighters they might have stood a greater chance, but they weren't and a lot of people probably would've just written them off as some dumb card game, possibly making it more of a risk. And with XenoVerse doing so good recently maybe they'd be more willing to give Extreme Butouden a chance.

There's the two Dragon Ball Heroes games, but there's also Dragon Ball Kai Ultimate Butouden (on DS, not 3DS apparently) that didn't come out in the West, and it was close to this style (except in 3D).

Kinda Weird Super Buu isn't playable. He was the longest Lived version of Buu, and he fought the most people.
I guess you could argue he was the least important one, since he wasn't the first one to be seen, or the one to Die, but he was the most Interesting one IMO.

Most speculation I've seen is that that game came out too late, near the end of the Nintendo DS's lifetime and that Game Republic (who worked on the game) went out of business shortly afterwards, but who knows. I guess you can only hope that this game breaks the recent trend of handheld DBZ games getting shafted outside of Japan.

One Piece Super Grand Battle X did something similar recently (down to the layout of the page): http://www.bandaigames.channel.or.jp/list/opj/special04.html And I haven't heard of the content it was offering being made available through other means (of course with that game I didn't really care because all they were offering were glorified stat ups in the form of pictures.)

Yeah, Golden Freeza, a download code for Super Butouden 2, and a card for use with the Dragon Ball Heroes arcade game are all first print bonuses. It's a shame cause I was kind of hoping Golden Freeza was gonna be playable but they seem to be advertising him as an assist so that's probably all he'll be. I at least hope they have 3rd form Freeza as an assist so every form is represented in this game, after seeing all the others in that recent commercial.

All seven together they formed a dark blue shenron with a cigar. The "final boss" of that saga was Omega Shenron, the 1 star dragon with the rest of the dragonballs on his chest. It was the one ssj4 gogeta got together to defeat and shit.

There's nothing too interesting. 20+ playable chars, high speed air rush, power charge, assist have different powers (Karin and Kibito heal you, Tao Pai Pai and king Carrot have their unique ability, announcer and Bubbles give you a stat boost etc.), team battle - build your team by picking chars with a different cost for a team of up to 5 chars (make a team by family, race, group - the Son family vs the Capsule Corp family, Saiyans vs Namekians, Red Ribbon vs Ginyu Force, fathers vs kids, cute girls vs pervy boys etc. but those are not pre-set / fixed teams), make dream matches (with special dialogs - Trunks vs Vegeta, Cell vs Freeza, young Gohan vs Ultimate Gohan). Nothing new, all classic stuff / easily guessed.

The top of the gohan face was kinda cutup so im in doubt if its meant to be gohan or ssj2goku, I guess they could have divided him such that you have a normal goku with ssj form and a ssj2 goku with a ssj3 form.

Oh that's right... Ultimate Gohan in SSJ form. Why is everyone trying to make that a thing. (edit - well, maybe his forms go base > SSJ2 from the tournament with Spopovitch > Ultimate) Yeah, it's definitely Gohan, only one bang on the front, SSJ2 Goku has those little ones dropping down on the side of the forehead. Plus we already know Ultimate Gohan is playable, they show him in action, so there would be no point in omitting him from the "20+ playable characters !" list. They're even showing Beerus and Broly (hm, not Bardock, though).

Amazon Japan also says プレイアブルキャラは20キャラ以上 so the final count is probably 24-29 (if there are gonna be secret characters not on the site). I'm glad I was wrong about the SSJ characters being separate. Or maybe the website will devote slots to advertise transformations anyway (because right now it isn't really showing off any with just base information). Strange things I noticed are that although Future Trunks is advertised to always be SSJ, sometimes his lifebar portrait in this trailer is base and sometimes it's SSJ. Maybe its just an icon that changes based on what level character you pick like the Bukuu games. Also seems weird to advertise what I assumed was just going to be Buu Saga Ultimate Gohan as SSJ at the portrait part of the trailer. Maybe he can go SSJ too. Also it seems the baby in the pod is Goku like others have said and not Gohan like I thought.
Edit: Ninja'd on SSJ Ultimate Gohan.

Oh, by the way, the team you chose seem to allow you to get team-specific supers, like SSJ2 young Gohan and SSJ Goku.

Well it's not Guilty Gear / BlazBlue, it's more of a love letter to classic 2D fighters like Street Fighter before 3... That's definitely why Super Butouden 2 is included in the first place. I'm fine with these "choppy" animations. Not to mention that there's a hundred characters (yes, 70+ of them have just a couple of animations), and some have transformations. It's not a big surprise that they didn't go nuts with animation quality on every one of them.

- beautiful sprites - great to see another pixel Dragonball game - great poses/designs & possible keyframes that can be used as further reference for future characters (Balthazar will for sure love these)
that aside the animations are truely not en par with these beautiful designs - but hey, maybe Dragon Ball Z Extreme Butoden 2 gets an animation overhaul haha

Those are the assists I think. The top 3 (Raditz, Nappa, Vegeta) have the text "battle characters" on the left side (the yellow bar with vertical text), and for the bottom ones it says "Z assists", it seems to be that the super versions are the assists. That does imply that playable characters have a separate entry as assists too, since there's Ginyu and Freeza, more than transformed versions of the Saiyans. But it is weird how the layout appears on that. It kind of looks like the list is for the "battle characters" tab and there's a Z assists tab that it's not currently looking at. Since we're sure that the transformations can be accessed during the fight, I don't think they count as separate characters, but maybe you can directly skip to them when selecting your character ?
edit - ah, gotcha. Then I just think you can skip to a specific form but they're still counted as one character, at least in the "20+" announcement and the total 100 count. || V

No, I don't think that's how you read that screen. A couple of seconds later it switches to the assist tab:
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
(http://i.imgur.com/wfBdfsg.png)
Unless Karin, Kibito, and Dende of all people are playable.
I think there's a chance the SSJ forms might still be considered separate characters and the transformation mid-battle you see in the video for Goku and Bardock might just be a unique animation for when you use the games tag-out system for different forms of the same character. So instead of a normal Goku jumping out for a SSJ one he just changes forms right there instead. In the images above at that part in the trailer regular Goku is currently selected and SSJ Goku isn't grayed out so it does seem like you can have multiple forms of the same character on one team.
With that in mind, if you take the 20 characters in the panels at 42 seconds in the trailer and add the four other base forms we've seen in game play that aren't in the panels (Goku, Vegeta, Bardock, Teen Gohan) you do end up with 24 characters. And all of those characters are present on the box art in some form. SSJ Buu Saga Gohan does kind of throw a wrench in that train of thought because if he has Ultimate and SSJ that would be one too many but I think that might just be an error and they accidentally made that portrait SSJ. It wouldn't be the first time. Or he could just have a hair color swap that doesn't count like the other characters might. Again, I could be wrong and there could always be secret characters too.
I just find it odd that the characters on the site we've seen so far that we know have other SSJ forms don't advertise them at all. Like you have two pictures for Goku, Vegeta, and Teen Gohan but none of them show off SSJ and you've got both of Goku's just showing off Kaio-ken.

Base Vegeta costs 3 BP and SSJ Vegeta costs 5, I don't know what the standard is to build your team (I can't really check the video too much at work), but it seems like it would be difficult to build a team like that just to turn SSJ. There was a team super of SSJ2 Gohan and SSJ Goku, with SSJ Goku already costing 5 BP, that seems a lot to try and have two like that, compared to Nappa's and Raditz's 1 BP when the max is 5 characters (playable or assist). Also, (again, can't check the video) I'm assuming that switching characters should change how much life you have left (unless all your chars share one life bar but that sounds weird), and I don't expect SSJ transformations to change your lifebar (I don't think I noticed it for Goku's transformation). That should be checkable, we have both a tag switch and a transformation in the video - but I can't check it myself right now.
As for young Gohan, haven't we seen his base form, SSJ form (not here but in a previous announcement), and SSJ2 form ? That also really seems like a lot, especially if their movelist can't be all that different.
edit - yep, Goku going SSJ or Kaiohken doesn't change his life, but Cell and Trunks switching out for Freeza and Goku does switch their lifebars. Transformations are most likely not a unique animation for character switching, I'd say. The portrait probably just depends on the form you selected on the select screen, but their presence in the select screen is just quick access. At best, they get unique supers/ultimates, or you can select them.

So, the final playable characters are, based on the battle portraits? 1- Goku 2- Vegeta 3- Kid Gohan 4- Future SSJ Trunks (using normal Trunks portrait?) 5- Krillin 6- Cell 7- Piccolo 8- Freeza 9- Raditz 10- Nappa 11- Ginyu 12- C18 13- SSJ Goku 14- SSJ Vegeta 15- SSJ Kid Gohan 16- Adult Gohan 17- Gotenks 18- Fat Buu 19- Kid Buu 20- Bardock 21- Beerus 22- God Goku 23- God Freeza 24- ???
In-game transformations seem to be limited to specific moves or intros, but it's not like the character base will switch from normal to SSJ during play. Plus the SSJ forms are located as different character slots.
Title: Re: Dragon Ball Z Extreme Budoten [2D fighter for 3DS]
Post by: Byakko on April 03, 2015, 05:58:08 pm
When base Goku transforms into SSJ, his bars don't move, including the power bar, so I don't think he's performing a super. It's a legit in-game transformation as far as I can tell, meaning SSJ Goku is not counted as a separate character from base Goku in the 20+ count. And in addition to that, there seems to be a way to immediately select a transformed version of a character as a shortcut (the Vegeta vs Trunks intro has them go directly to SSJ form before the fight starts). It's weird, but that's what I understand from Goku's transformation that isn't a super. It would be even weirder if the transformations did count in the "20+ playable" number, from what I see. And hasn't there been screens of young Gohan AND SSJ young Gohan AND SSJ2 young Gohan ? Three forms for one character would be overkill. Either way, at the very least, they're making sure not to be clear about it...
Also, Golden Freeza is not playable, he's an assist. And there's SSJ Bardock too.

Only the 3D Background is moving at 60 FPS, and with that, the camera angles... the sprites animate choppy.
great sprites, but extremely poor animated :bigcry:
Only noticeable when moves whiff. When they're hitting, it's fixed by hit pauses. There's a heavy emphasis on animating only key frames, and some recoveries, but no start ups.
Also, sure, they're not semi SF3 frame count like Balthazar's sprites, but they're not "extremely poor animated", those look actually on par with the frame count in any SFA game ... so it looks "acceptable" IMO :P

It's my computer then (it's getting old) because I see the anims more fluid when I see the video in 60FPS and then I compare it with the 30FPS version (I downloaded both videos to compare).
But yep, I see what you mean about the key frames, but I don't feel it as bad as the other videos we've seen.

Awesome sprites Sub-par animations, but that's expected seeing the number of chars and the system it's on. They're not horrible either.
I like the 3D stage rotation effect. Gameplay doesn't look too bad. Let's just hope it's fun in the long run.
Dunno if it's because of the video, but I hate how the sprites are a little blurred, in order to blend with the stages and FX maybe. Agreed, the beams take too long. Even beam collision takes forever... this is not the anime god dammit !!! I absolutely hate how the fight in the sky is basically the same as the fight on the ground. The sprites don't even change : they're STANDING in the air, hitting an invisible floor as they trip in the air, etc.
So yeah, this will be some awesome base to make nice Mugen characters, thanks to the sprites !!! ^_^

they should have just did what the old butodens did, and have a different stance frame for the air. (http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/457983-dragon-ball-z-super-butoden-2-snes-screenshot-when-you-and.png)

After a test of this demo: - Characters CAN'T go far away the opponent, as the previous DBZ chars game on DS. It's a disapointment for me but well, maybe it'll not be as annoying as expected in a long run. - Press start in a battle and you get the movelist (example for fat buu, 6 pages). 1 Hyper is L+A, for example. - By pressing a direction with the energy load, you get a fast forward move, like in the previous game. - B is like a roll move, you can go in the back of the opponent. - A is a special move, it doesn't change with a direction from what I've seen. - R is energy load. - When HP<50%, Energy is no longer max at 150% but 200%. - Right now, fly is like a mystery for me. :D
The game is beautiful. I'll probably come back give some more precise feedback later!

KICKS the opponent. Once. With a simple short straight kick. Wow. Thank you so much for taking the time to drop by, SSGSS Vegeta.

There's something strangely realistic about the proportions and general artistry of Vegeta's body in this game. Definitely interesting, but it feels kind of... not DBZ. I dunno. Spritework is super skilled though for sure.
Unfortunately the game looks a little lacking but I'm sure it'll be worth a try anyway (assuming it comes out outside of Japan).

Yeah me too, I see no major problems with the dub; there are also certain emotions that I can't pick up well from the subbed version (like sadism from freeza) because I'm not familiar with inflection in the language. Sub purists always surprise me by taking such a hard stance to such a minor thing.

^ Yeah, that's what's happening now.
People, if you really have to say something about the dubs, do it in another topic (maybe titled: "Which DBZ dub do you prefer and why?"). Reading this conversation here is annoying and it has been done thousands of times (in other topics regarding DBZ stuff). Why must this be discussed here too? The game (for now) is in Japanese, the voices are in Japanese and you have to deal with it (until the US release comes, if it comes).

I won't deny it was strange when I started to hear his original voice (when I started watching the movies). But I actually prefer the original voices, because they're original, and not dubbed. It's like saying that someone prefers the dubbed versions of any other movie (not animated). It's ok, you may like it but, in my opinion, you don't feel the same reaction the actor was expressing in that scene. The same happens for the animated movies, I know, they're voice actors but you can still notice the difference.
I've never liked the English dub version of DBZ :P I feel like they can't express what the character has to say. I grow up hearing the one from Mario Castañeda (Goku, Bruce Willis in Die Hard, MacGyver and a lot more) because I'm from Argentina. I used to think it was awesome but then you find it dull when you're getting older.
DKDC, it's the first shock you have when you think, is that Goku? It's so weird. But then you love it. Give them some time :P

The second V-Jump scan for Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden reveals that the game will have its own opening movie before the game begins (hopefully it’s not using the Cha-La OST again).
The rest of the scan goes into detail on the story mode where players can play through different story arcs as the hero and or villain. If you notice on the Story Select image, you’ll see that there are different characters that represent each saga like Beerus, Broly, Bardock and so on. Judging by the image it seems like we’ll have 11 sagas with seven already revealed in the scan.

So... Supers are one air-to-ground, a different one for ground-to-air, and another that serves as an ultimate ? And possibly one for ground-to-ground or air-to-air I assume.
Title: Re: Dragon Ball Z Extreme Budoten [2D fighter for 3DS]
Post by: Iced on April 22, 2015, 04:36:45 pm
since the supers seem only possible after a combo and a ender( which send them flying up if grounded or down if aerial) there are no air to air or ground to ground.
The move changing depending on position was also used in super sonic warriors. i think it seems you are limited to a super move ( that varies with position) and a finisher move

There were shots of Vegeta doing a ground-to-ground Big Bang Attack, I wouldn't presume that's not a super, so my guess is that there are "regular" supers, plus those special ones after a combo that knocks the opponent to the other screen ? Oh, and we've seen a (super lame) Kaiohken charging strike too, I already forgot but wasn't there a "super flash" on it ? The knocking-to-the-other-screen seems to be the special case since the fight is always on the same screen the rest of the time. What I'm not really getting is why there is no sign of powerbar consumption. (eh, could be just for the demo I suppose)

I'm liking what I'm seeing. This game could be the only reason for me to buy a 3ds (in 2 years or so).
I noted in some other videos that the seconds for the timer last like 2.5~ seconds, so each battle last 99s*2.5=247s. Like 4 mins. That explains why it took so long for Namek to explode.
That is not including when the time pauses if a super is performed.
Hopefully this game will get another edition with better animations and timing. Something like KoF XII to KoF XIII.
And that SSGSGSSGSSG transformation I didn't like when I first saw it, like if it was a mere colorswap, but trying to find something logic in DBZ is impossible, so I'm going to get used to it.

Post by: MotorRoach on April 22, 2015, 10:11:08 pm
I'm going to agree with you in there, given that looking at the game right now, I also hope that it gets updated in a way or another. I mostly hope this due to how nearly all of the animations seem so unsmooth-- using only that amount of frames was understandable for the SNES games, but it just doesn't works for a bigger sprites like these, and to me, it just ruins a good looking sprite style.
And if that happens, here hoping they go for better choices that could've been in the game but were made as assists (like Yamcha and Tien), instead of just changing Goku's hair to cyan.

I am in love with those character sprites and the stances look amazing
The latest V-Jump scans for Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden focuses on Z-Assist characters and recommended teams. The nine recommended teams listed also give special tips to fully utilize the special team.
On the right side of the scan, it focuses on Z-Assists that can be unlocked in the story and some rare ones are unlocked using the Dragon Ball Discross Discs (same goes for unlocking Golden Frieza Z-Assist). Unfortunately, characters like SS4 Gogeta, Gogeta, Bojack, Tapion, Metal Cooler and more are all Z-Assists.
The final V-Jump scan for Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden reveals the Tenakichi Budokai Mode which is where you fight opponents that are more difficult than any other mode in the game. Also, as you unlock more characters in the game, you’ll earn more team names.
Story Mode will have seven arcs in total and a separate mode called “Makafushigi Adventure” is where you go to unlock characters and Z-Assists. Finally, the Street Pass feature allows you to trade Guild Cards to see how strong that person is and if you get seven Street Passes, Shenron will appear and you can choose from a variety of wishes.

Have to disagree on that. If they can't be full characters, making an appearance as an assist is just fine. I'm saying this even though I don't really like gameplays with strikers and assists myself ; that level of fan-service can't be a bad thing, it's the next best thing they can do, really.

Oh God those sprites, ArcSys did a great job with the look of the sprites. My only gripes are Goku's voice, which is terribly lackluster, it kinda feels dead to me TBH. And my second gripe are the long cinematic super moves. God, it felt like a century to see SSGSS Goku release a Kamehameha onto Kid Buu. :S :S
In addition, IMO the intro was kinda meh. But I love seeing Mr Satan looking like a cowardly piece of shit in the last scene, where everybody's going to blast each other with chi-based moves, while he's just there, frolicking in fear. :rofl:

There will probably be some sort of button mashing during those scenes. Sure, they're boring to watch, but there's probably a reason.

Not the mashing, but the input to perform the counter (or block or evade etc.), most likely. Still, it could be faster.

Not at all a fan of the different Saiyajin forms = different character. Especially the Adult Gohan sprite swap and the 3 separate Gokus/4 Gohans on the roster, I'm hoping that's not the final. Unless each form is totally unique gameplay-wise, but my guess is going to be some forms have variations on the supers.
16, 17, Yamcha, Tien, Recoome, Cooler, Bojack, Zangya(for some extra girl action), Super 13, Dabura or even the Super Buu form since he was a character of his own, would be nice to fill some of those saiyajin form slots IMO. Unless I'm missing something, it looks like most of the above will be nothing more than a striker.
Everything else, bar the cutscenesque supers, looks nice though. Might be using Perfect Cell and in particular Insect form Cells heads/colors from this one. :3

Why would you expect sprites to not be in a sheet ? It's not like they make them specially for Mugen. For everyone else outside Mugen, it's easier to have all the sprites in one image.

Just checked, the beam struggle portraits are the top row in the sheets for each character. The static one for most supers (cropped tight when returning one and initiating a struggle), and the "animated" one for the ultimate.

What really makes these sprites stand out the most are the colours I think! I love the faces and I love Krillin's, Brolly's sprites and Mr. Satans face and all these keyposes and and and, but hell there were really great artists working on them colours:
Here I put some Brolly transformation into action - with a decent background colour the colours SHINE haha (http://s18.postimg.org/bkh7nu9m1/image.gif)
also that animation is smooth!!! I wish all animations were as smooth as the stance - please guys admire that subpixeling! (http://i.imgur.com/5Wa6KYv.gif)
I'd love to hear Diepod's or Ink's take on that spriting - It for sure looks like they were drawn at a higher scale and then reseized right?

yes but linked with his stomp, which then repeats.
Make the part where he smashes down last longer and add in the initial arc, he jumps forward,s graps opponent with his outstretched hand and then smashes them down.
follows it up by stomping on them repeatedly with both legs.

Seeing how easy and fast these fixes are made, I really wonder why they didn't go for a few more frames there (if the spriter is doing the animation, it literally costs him only a few minutes to push these pixels around to create a "new" frame that makes the animation way smoother)
Also guys, use this as a small "tutorial" to add more frames inbetween to make these sprites mugen character worth material.

some of these combos are a bit broken... The Hyper on Trunks' 37-hit combo should be an ender, not an in-betweener for additional combos.
Raditz being able to hit up to 6 times with the manual bullet throw is another example of the game being broken. The same can be said from all these basic punches with not enough cornerpush, reminds me of badly coded mugen characters

I can give you a long list from the PSX era. I don't understand how I got so good at Marvel Super Heroes without a training mode :( (well, honestly, I only remember MSH)

Ah, the old days.
I even liked to go to a certain arcade near my school that had terrible joysticks/buttons just because they had the MSH machine with the lowest damage setting.

You reminded me how I had to control player 2 if I wanted them to jump, duck, block, or attack.
I got good using my toes for simple presses. Sitting the second player controller in the floor by my feet while I practiced!

No I know, I meant recently, not the games that were designed for arcade machines and shoddily ported to some console. Even more so on a portable console where you can't do the player 2 that doesn't move.

Further compounded by the fact that most games didn't have command lists either. Had to look at guides and manuals to learn moves, it's how I learned to play Alpha 3 beyond a button bashing level way back when.

Worse than that is the training mode that is no more than the CPU fighting you. I had Primal Rage on SNES; the game featured training mode but it was impossible to practice anything because:
a) The game AI was hard as hell b) You had limited life.
I had to use VS to practice combos :(

This is the main reasons why most of us born in the 80's or early 90's really appreciate a training or practice mode because there are so many games that came out around those times that didn't have that. It was either you learned your own way or you just didn't learn at all....

that's seems like alot of dedication. i kill alot of time with the psp port of darkstalkers chronicles, surprisingly it has a good training mode with options to change speed, record and display of combos and damage. i like how the new fighting games now give you the challenge mode that gives you a list of combos to perform to help you learn the game.

The way I learned how to git gud back in the day was more or less... getting my ass kicked. After enough times you start to pick up on the enemies strategies and can assimilate them into you're own bag of tricks.
I mean.. I never would have learned Ryu's Shin Shoryuken in SF3TS could link into a Donkey Kick from midscreen without that sort of conditioning.

Post by: GOD984 on October 29, 2015, 04:30:25 pm
for those that have the actual game, are these spritesheets complete or are they missing frames?
They are complete, but in game effects, and by tilting sprites and other things, it doesn't look bad in game, rather than the supports only having on frame, like when SSJ4 Gogeta uses Kamehameha, his body doesn't move at all XD
Title: Re: Dragon Ball Z Extreme Budoten [2D fighter for 3DS]
Post by: Byakko on October 29, 2015, 05:45:47 pm
They are absolutely not complete. Most of them are missing several random sprites, sometimes an entire animation. It's very weird, because some of the animations in the sheets have sprites that can't be actually seen in the game, meaning the guy has to have extracted them from the actual file rather than take screenshots. So I don't know why it's missing so much. Maybe he compiled stuff without checking what he was doing, looking at the full animations, and just tossed them out there as soon as he had something. He never fixed it and then no one else did it again properly. That's too bad, because apparently it wasn't that hard in the first place (for someone who has some knowledge in that field, that is), seeing how fast the guy chugged them out like candies at the time.

Teen Gohan? Teen "Cell Saga" Gohan? As a SSJ4?
Well, this is rather unexpected, but okay. Did that appear in Dragon Ball Heroes and I missed it out?
Title: Re: Dragon Ball Z Extreme Budoten [2D fighter for 3DS]
Post by: The Answer on November 24, 2015, 12:34:52 am
I don't think they are referring to teen gohan as when he was in during the Cell saga and they just decided to have Cell saga gohan still be kid gohan and adult gohan is now teen gohan @_@. Yes he appears in heroes.

Post by: The Answer on November 24, 2015, 01:04:11 am
Well nothing is stopping them from making assist characters playable, and there are still characters who haven't showed up in the game at all that could be playable like Future Gohan, Nail, and Cui but more than likely they would end up assists, Still maybe they are testing the waters to see if Extreme Butoden is popular enough to warrant dlc characters?

A quick look at Google tells you very easily that the Gohan that appears as SSJ4 in Dragon Ball Heroes is the "adult" one. that sprite is also obviously taller than the Cell Saga version and the same size as the Buu Saga version.

Heroes added
Super 17 with 16 absorbed
super 17 with 18 absorbed (http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/dragonball/images/5/5b/Super_17_%2818%29.png/revision/latest?cb=20151011063935)
Baby fused janemba (http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/dragonballfanon/images/1/17/Baby_Janemba_Example_By_ZK20.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20130916195701) And even time breaker Bardock ssj3 (https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ShZzPyH2Utc/maxresdefault.jpg)
They are not really an example of well thought out characters.

Not going to lie, though, I love how Dragon Ball Heroes gave Haze Shenron an ultra gay rainbow blast move, AND gave him a transformed form that's like a giant lizard type of thing. It's about time someone made him competent.

To be honest, I really like Demigra. His final form is unusual and distinct from the other DBZ villains, I say.
The rest is either "ssj this and that" or "what if" bullshit nobody cares about, from what I can remember.

Hey guys, remember this game ? http://www.siliconera.com/2016/04/06/dragon-ball-z-extreme-butoden-adds-3-new-modes-newest-patch/
The update is finally coming to the West, supposedly today (haven't turned my 3DS on since I stopped playing that game) We're finally getting online, training and survival, plus the new assists, for all you people who dropped this game and sold it back months ago.
All the articles say "some moves updated for some characters" and I do see a young Gohan with forward father-son Kamehameha instead of up in that trailer, but no one seems to have any info about what other moves got updated... Same for the last batch of assists (Champa, Vados and I forgot who else), can't tell if they made it. (dunno if Hoshi would be up to rip the sprites again... ?)
