While it's pretty easy to translate Dragon Ball Z into video games in which nothing happens but spikey-haired glowing dudes fighting and growling at each other in the air, its predecessor, Dragon Ball, featured all kinds of weird stuff. For example, the big noodle-serving/fighting guy here is actually a shape-shifting pig who saves the world later by wishing for panties.A stylus-controlled adventure in the wacky Dragon Ball universe sounds infinitely more appealing than playing another game about Goku floating in the air and "powering up." Dragon Ball DS will be out in Japan on September 18; no announcements have been made elsewhere.

Could this be the Dragon Power [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon_Power ] sequel we Americans (i.e. me and maybe three other people who honestly enjoyed the game) have been waiting for for 22 years? Kinda looks like it, judging from the screenshots.

RossGough, try reading the article. It is a Dragon Ball game, they just screwed it up for american release because the Dragon Ball anime wasn't dubbed yet.

I see nothing weird about these scans. Its just following the goof ball humor of the series. Oh and does anyone know if this will be heading to the US? (crosses fingers)

I'm such a DBZ dork that I've actually played "Legend of the Super Saiyan" twice. I wish they would make more Dragon Ball (& DBZ) RPGs (aside from the GBA games) for the big consoles. If they put a little bit of effort into them, they could be really sweet!
