If you guys thought the inputs for super saiyan were tough I'd like to point out that King Piccolo has a PENTAGRAM INPUT for one of his attacks. Like you literally have to move the stick to make a star.

Cell is so interesting. Muay Thai stance, Tae Kwon Do kicks, untrained haymaker. He really is just a mix of everything.

One reason I love this game is that you can actually upgrade the characters to get variety of different moves

Made by freaking Arika, a team directed by Akira Nishitani one of the creators of Street Fighter II, the same team who made The Street Fighter EX series and the Fighting Layer series. These guys know their fighting games.

Man old dragonball games just brings me back fr

This game was ahead of its time damn

I'm subscribed to a Japanese KZfaq channel that runs regular tournaments in this game. It shows up on my Twitter feed sometimes, too. Super DBZ stood the test of time through sheer quality, and the real ones still know.

Doto may be missing those wins but he doesn't miss with these uploads. Absolute Chad is bringing back the dbz fighting games we all loved as kids

The art style actually looks insanely good. Every frame looks like it could be a panel in the manga

It would be cool to see you playing Tenkaichi Tag Team, is basically the same as the usual tenkaichi, but the unique thing is that you can have 4 people fighting at the same time!

7:56 Missed opportunity for Rhyme to say something like "Look who's talking" or "Neither do you."

Also, it must be said, and if it’s been said already, it’s worth saying again: the stages in this game are AMAZING. So huge, so detailed.

Seeing Doto just run into attacks or just standing there is sending me lol

you wont pull back up for round 2

Love how this man can kill it with krillin in any dragonball game

"I'm not too short, I'm too different!" Very interesting quote from Doto there.

I feel like I wasn’t mature enough to appreciate it at the time. Since it came out between Tenkaichi 1 and 2 I thought it meant Tenkaichi wasn’t going to get a sequel and that prevented me to appreciate Super DBZ for what it was. 0:36 Rhyme said it perfectly lol.

Granted I'm only 10 minutes in, but I feel like I could easily watch a full hour of Doto and Rhyme playing this game that I totally slept on when it was released. I was just a mainline Budokai guy; I never even played the Tenkaichi games for such a stupid reason as transformations counted as characters. Even this game seemed like such a backwards step to me at the time. Looks awesome as hell watching these legends play it, I so missed out

this video is accurate af. i had this game and completely forgot about it. what a blast from the past

This game was literal perfection. I demand a sequel.

Y'all should play using the equipments too,that's where the real ultimates come from

Gotta love retro db games doto keep it up!

This game wasnt the first to have Mecha Freiza playable. Mecha Freiza was playable in Budokai 1. He had to die with “Frieza’s Spaceship” capsule equipped.

I bought this game a few years back collecting PS2 stuff. Never heard of it back in the day, having played the Budokais and Tenkaichis, so it was a hidden gem I never knew existed. I've never been big into actual combo heavy fighting games, so I didn't play much, but watching these guys play and knowing I have the game still buried in my PS2 collection gives me the urge to try it again.

I know im late but i grew up on this game as a kid on my ps2 and i loved it, its crazy to see a video on it now and the giant nostalgia trip was great thank you for unlocking childhood memories doto! Love the channel ❤❤❤

Rhyme always cooks doto in every dragon ball game except FighterZ

“Doto this is the 5th time you’ve shown the class a forgotten Dragon Ball game”.

I was waiting for you pick this one up real talk it's a hidden gem imo

For those confused about the input for Super Saiyan transformation, it is: *Forward, Half-Circle Forward + Attack (6, 41236 + A)* It is the same input for _Hao Shoukou Ken_ in The King of Fighters games.

this was one of my favorite games from childhood, i know this is a 7 month old video but thank you very much DotoDoya! imma play this and Metroid Prime 2 Echoes on my emulators have a good day!

The Kaioken uses 15% of life gauge to earn 25% of the Ki bar

I would love to more of this game !!

i was actually looking for this game for so long... i played once when i was younger, i love the fact that you have a lot of colors to select for the characters

I love seeing more super DragonBall z being played, they still have tournaments to this day and 16 and chi chi are top tier, also, some Easter egg references in this game, yes, ot was sour man from arale hidden in the phone booth, and in other world you can knock each other in hell doing a ground bounce(the other launcher input) and in kami lookout you can knock each other off to the land under korrin tower

This is sweet to see. Top tier banter and a vintage DB game.

I HAVE BEEN WAITING MONTHS FOR THIS

Vegeta be hittin that dorya like kazuya from tekken

So much to love about this game. I liked a few things we didn't get elsewhere like playable adult Chi Chi as well as King Kai Planet as a stage.

Super glad to see more coverage for this game! There is a pretty active discord if you wanna learn more about the game. They have channels dedicated to each character and their combo routes.

I've been playing KOF since I was 10 😭 motion inputs are ingrained in me

If anybody wants to get in this scene there's a discord where people help others and play competitively (it's not mine and i take no credit for it just trying to spread the good word) Edit: They also had a showing at Evo for it this past year it was really cool.

I used to see massive amounts of this game in the Wal-Mart discount game bin and at GameStop used.

"Any real fighting game has chip damage" I wonder if Doto realised that you can't kill somebody through chip damage in Fighterz

Oooo I'm actually happy you were making a vid on this! Been playing it plenty recently since I couldn't get the controls down as a kid.

I JUST NOTICED THE KO WORLD DESTRUCTION AND TEXT ARE REFERENCED IN HYPER DBZ THATS SO DOPEEE

Something about seeing thumbnail’s “cobwebs” and doto screaming “KNOCKED ME UP” at 7:21 has me dying lol

THANKS YOU FINALLY. I BEEN ASKING FOR THIS GAME FOR MONTHS

"Imagine being a child and being told to do these imputs". Cries in SNK from all the hardships.

This is a real interesting one, honestly never seen or heard of it before today

I was just playing this game yesterday. This was the first dbz game I ever had and imo it’s great

I remember as a kid asking for budokai tenkaichi 2 for x-mas. My parents misunderstood and instead of getting bt2 i got budokai 1 and this. It absolutely blew my mind and was one of those games that got me into more "real" or competitive fighting games. super dbz kicks so much ass

Handicap doesn't raise your damage. It lowers your health

Love to see a video on this game👀 also glad to see you got it all set up too awesome vid doto!!

There is a hella underrated KZfaqr that covered this game.

Krilin is actually fun in this game, I remember spamming his insane move and my friends got pissed every time we play that Area controlling move lol

I remember renting this game from Blockbuster! Fun, but I couldn’t play it with any sort of proficiency to save my life. 0:36 was basically the mood.

I remember renting this game when I was a kid. I forgot to take it out of my console and had ultimate tenkaichi in the rental case when my mom took it back to the store. I still have the disk to this day lol

One game that I absolutely loved that no one talks about is the old GBA game, DBZ: Buu's Fury. Imo, it was one of the best DBZ games. From the story telling to the level up and upgrade system to how it manages to tie in with the Fusion Reborn movie so seamlessly. Everything was just perfect, again, imo and for a GBA game, no less. There was only one thing I didn't like and that was how there was a certain buggy area in the desert that you could get stuck in, but there was also a way to reset it. It's been a while so I kinda forgot how.

The missile launcher Rhyme is talking about it's the unique feature of this game, character customization, you can make a character card (You guys have a lot of those in this downloaded save, already) and with it, you can get points/levels to upgrade a skill tree, there you'll get boosts, new attacks/weapons, costumes even, you can collect dragon balls to summon shenron, who can give you the new costumes, can give you a special from another character and etc. This game has a lot of customization, including a finisher, almost a DBZ fatality, not really a Destructive Finish, cause you can do these finishers in any opponent.

Omg I was thinking "it can't be better than budokai games" but this one looks pretty lit actually

I remember playing this game when i was younger, my main was chi-chi. She rode the nimbus and had the bansho fan. I remember her being extremely broken

6:00 This game came out in 06, Budokai 1 came out in 02, 03 depending on your console. Mecha Frieza was playable in Budokai 1 as a transformation if you had the capsule or breakthrough capsule

I might have to find my ps2 and see my custom characters, i remember having a crazy Majin Vegeta and 18

Dotos history of Dragon ball games continues and I’m praying for more

So glad to see Doto putting some respect on this old classic

nice followup video. good to see you guys discovering more about Super DBZ. you gotta try those card skills next time though lol. edit: forgot to mention, ill be running this game at Evo again this year

I played this game so much its a prize in my collection, when you give me a cyborg freiza with a cannon and ANOTHER cannon I'm gonna love the game.

This game could always, always use more love. One of the best licensed anime fighting games ever made. My pipe dream is for it to finally get a port or something on a modern system. Never gonna happen, but I can dream. I bet Doto and Rhyme would love the custom character system (Rhyme references it mentioning Freeza's missile launcher: you have to unlock it and customize him), but iirc where was a ton of grind involved with that so it's probably too much hassle for just a little fun.

Scene straight from Indiana Jones 🤣 Trunks starts whipping his sword around and Cell just puts another hole in him lol

The background music is the peak of all background music

I still have my PS2 copy. I love this game. I always thought of this as DBZ meets Street Fighter lol.

This game deserves more love it was one of my favorites

I love seeing Doto labeling these games forgotten when I have them all in my library. 😁

They still do tournaments for this game in Japan... this game is cracked! Ain't nobody forget this!

I love the visuals in this one. They're timeless

15:30 bro that attack and the way it just absolutely slams trunks is makin me lose my shit🤣🤣🤣

Glad to see more people playing this game! :D

I remember going to GameStop & seeing the cover & I immediately picked it up lmao.. that’s how I use to choose my games 🤣😭

Super Dragonball Z is literally the game that you received when you asked to your parents Budokai Tenkaichi 3. True story

Bro! 4:31 Is that Sonic Adevture 2 Battle music on a dbz game? Amazing!

Brother got me this and tankaichi 1 and 2. This was the first time I had to directional imput. I only played tekken and anime game before hand. Can't wait for dbzbt4.

Doto is actually playing the orginal dragon ball fighterz, Lets Gooooooo!

Doto just puts out Banger after Banger I swear!

I'm really loving this game would love to see more game play

As a kid i managed to pull those inputs, i call them "press everything randomly until happen"

I remember when this came out and I was like Tenkaichi had 10 times more characters but to this day this is the only one where adult Chi Chi is playable

This game basically half-Power Stone and half-Tekken, but you can fly around with traditional fighter inputs.

I had this game and I completely forgot about it until this

Remember playing this once as a child and returned it immediately. It was too complicated for my mind back then lol

Super Dragonball Z I still have the game case, dvd, and my ps2 still works! I played last month. I just lost my memory cards ): . It always reminded me of Dragonball FightersZ

I never forgot this game, I wanted this game back in the day because it looks incredible and this game was Dragon Ball FighterZ before Dragon Ball FighterZ asking the question; What if Dragon ball played like Street Fighter?

As far as i know the only game where 23th tournament Chi Chi is a playable character. Also, super cool. You can equip characters moves. So Chi Chi can use the Kame-Hame-Ha. Really great game. Wish that future DB-Games would use some features, such as equipping moves, leveling up and of course more, many, many more OG-DB-Characters. All people only talks about Z and Super. Thats sad, the original, first series was absolutley amazing. Nam, Chi Chi, Giran, Chapa-O, Pirate-Robot and many more. So many great characters rarely used. Hope Tenkaichi 4 will contain more of them.

LMAOOOOOOOO WHY CHIAOTZU DINO STANCING AT 24:28 WATCHING THE FIGHT ABOVE FRIEZA'S HEALTHBAR

Dragon Ball Online lives in my head rent free and has since I saw the intro a decade ago. They should do another MMO, Toei and by extension Kadakowa could afford it!!

this game has never been forgotten by me

You can't tech throws in this game! You have to punch them before the grab comes out, like in Virtua Fighter. I hope you guys play with the skill tree, you can get Ultimates, Super-Cancels or even just more Action Bar lol its so much fun

Brings back good memories, I enjoyed this game

i actuaally got this game when i was a kid and i remember playing it with my brother. The controllers were messy and me and my bro would mash all button untill we transform into ssj xD

This game looks awesome! I like how the characters have the Manga inspired art style and colours

As a kid you couldn't do half circle inputs, as a kid I was hitting bosses in symphony of the night (Castlevania) with soul steal and dark metamorphosis
