This is a great, old school-styled video game. I loved it and played it until it hurt (seriously, GBA-SP very hard on the fingers). It's challenging, even on normal, and that's a positive point for most players. It kept me working until the end, and there's plenty of stuff to do after the initial story is over, so you'll have plenty of fun on this for a while.

The quality of this product is fantastic.

I bought this mainly based on the developer, Dimps. Known for the GBA Sonic games, multiple other Dragon Ball games, and the company Capcom is outsourcing Street Fighter 4 development to.

I'm not a very big fan of Dragon Ball, however this game could stand on it's own without the license. It reminds me of old SNES action platforming games. Everything moves at a brisk pace with excellent controls and great animation.

This game is really fun for a side scroller beat em up. The only disappointment was I felt it was too short. It would have been nice if they had added more levels to the game from the Anime.

I originally bought this game, because it is the only Dragonball game available in America, but when I played it, I found some serious flaws. The first is that the game is another side-scroller, and as one reviewer said, there was too much fighting. I am a big fan of the original Legacy Of Goku games, and was expecting this game to be similar. Instead it was more like Dragonball GT: Transformation, which I also didn't like.

The game also doesn't finish the story of Dragonball, and only stops after King Piccolo is defeated. After that, they completely skipped the 23rd Budokai Tenkaichi, and the fight against Piccolo Jr. Other people have said that this game ends where the show does, but even that is not true, because the show even creates a side story that occurs after Goku wins the tournament. In addition to that, Mecha Taopaipai, shouldn't exist before Piccolo Jr. appears, but he is still a playable character in the game.

My final complaint about the game is that it is too short. I was able to beat the game, with both Goku, and Krillin, and find almost all of the hidden items in the game, in less than 24 hours. By this time I had already unlocked all the characters, and the only thing I had left to do was play through the tournament mode.

In short I had expected more out of this game than it delivered. On the other hand however, other people have given this game great reviews. My prejudice stems, I believe from the fact that I am a fan of the Legacy Of Goku series. Therefore, I wouldn't call this a truly bad game in general, but compared to LOG, it is terrible, and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who has played those games before.

I love this game it's so exact to the story line of the show Dragon Ball. How do I know I use to tape record every episode and watch the episodes on tv over and over again personally I was waiting for them to make a game out of the show but who ever made this game did a fantastic job especially with the graphics and following with the story and not adding parts like in some of the other games. THIS GAME ROCKS AND IS TOTALLY AWESOME IF YOUR BUYING THIS GAME YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED IF YOU ARE THEN ALL I CAN SAY IS YOU HAVEN'T EITHER FOLLOWED THE STORY OR WATCHED THE STORY ON CARTOONNETWORK THEY SHOW THE STORY ONE EPISODE AT A TIME HELLO YOU NEED TO GET THIS GAME IF YOUR A DRAGON BALL FAN BACAUSE THAT'S HOW DRAGON BALL Z CAME ABOUT FIRST DRAGON BALL, DRAGON BALL Z, DRAGON BALL GT YEAH DRAGON BALL FAN ALL THE WAY YEAH!!! And guess what there's three modes to this game witch makes it even way cooler because I finally beat the game on Easy Mode on this game now I'm replaying this game but on this time on the Regular Mode and as soon as I beat it on Regular Mode I'm going to beat it in Hard Mode.

levels for the Easy Mode:

1. Goku's House
2. Oolong's Village
3. Wilderness
4. Pilaf's Castle
5. Island of Training
6. World Tournament Arena
7. Muscle Tower
8. UnderWater Cave
9. Land of Korin
10. Red Ribbon Army Base
11. Baba's Palace
12. City Street
13. Above City
14. Yajirobe's Prairie
15. Chow Castle

Plus when you beat the Easy Mode you get to unlock the minigames and the extras which is really cool and when you beat the Easy Mode all the way through when it comes to the credit's DO NOT TURN THE GAME OFF because other wise the game will not save the last level and then you won't be able to get the minigames or the extras.

Levels for the Regular Mode:

1. Goku's House
2. Oolong's Village
3. Kame House
4. Wilderness
5. Fire Mountain
6. Pilaf's Castle

8. World Tournament Arena
9. Muscle Tower
10. UnderWater Cave
11. Land of Korin
12. Red Ribbon Army Base
13. Baba's Palace
14. City Street
15. Above City
16. Yajirobe's Prairie
17. Chow Castle
