'Vegeta! What does the scouter say about the DS's power level?'

Completing the trifecta of designer, limited-edition DSes we've featured this week is this wonderful handheld customization from deviantART member SSJ4Maromaru. We really think we saved the best for last. If you're unfamiliar with the meme phrase scrawled on its lid, hit this goofy video up.

SSJ4Maromaru sketched the Saiyan onto his Electric Blue DS with a pencil before going over the outline with a Sharpie marker. Fantastic! If any of you now feel inspired to decorate your DS with Dragon Ball Z characters, make sure to send us the results!

Jump Superstars 2 announced

Kamehameha!One can look around at the abundance of excellent games on the DS, usually feeling contented and satisfied. Yet, despite the numerous genres represented (and in a few cases, completely made up), the dual-screened wonder lacks a proper fighting game. Well, that's only partially true: Japan scored a brilliant game in Jump Superstars, a battle royale between essentially every popular anime and manga character in the country. And it was import-friendly! However, despite the game's excellent Smash Bros-like battle system, the real fun came via ad-hoc multiplayer...and what were the chances of finding another American gamer with this thing?

Well, get excited, fighting fans. The most recent issue of Famitsu has confirmed a sequel, entitled Jump Ultimate Stars. There are a few new characters, a few new moves, the regular treatment...but this time, the game properly supports the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service. If you can't find an American to beat down with Getsuga Tenshou, then just connect with someone across the Pacific. Warning: Japanese gamers are generally way, way better than you are.

New DBZ RPG coming to DS in December?

Submitted to Go Nintendo, a Japanese scan shows that a new Dragonball Z RPG title is headed to the DS this December. This estimated release date is obviously for the Japanese gaming world and does not apply to us lowly gamers outside of the Mecca of gaming that the nation is, so we'll have to wait a tad bit longer.

No other information can be taken from the scan, other than the knowledge that someone apparently did not enjoy the figurines, choosing to angrily place a giant X across a majority of the scan. The magazine in which this scan comes from is also a mystery at this time.
