/vr/ - Retro Games

Super Butoden 2 is my personal favorite out of all DBZ games.
This is in part due to it being pretty good, and in part because of nostalgia.

Once you get the hang of it, the game becomes super fun especially playing against friends, anyway the CPU in higher difficulty levels can be a bitch too.
Art direction and OST are both wonderful, I especially like the OST. The Story mode features the end of the Cell saga, and a whole new side story about Boujack from one of the movies, but it's a different version, a reimagining of some sort, they did stuff like this on the RPG titles as well. The story mode is interactive, almost like a visual novel in the sense that you choose where to go or what to reply (mostly "yes or no").

We had pogs here too, they just weren't successful commercially.
And you could also play games with the sticker cards, there were many of them and it was the most popular thing to do at breaks during school.
But honestly the best thing about these sticker albums were how good some of them were, the images were high quality and they were from popular TV shows (many anime too, like dragon ball, sailor moon or saint seiya which were popular here in the early 90s).

Anyway, I never really tried to compare them to pogs in a "better" or "worse" way, just wanted to show what was popular here.

Actually, not really, just the publishers of that shit being idiots. The thing was properly licensed, has BIRD STUDIO/SHUEISHA/TOEI 1986 (c) all over the place.

>Oh my god. Tell me that was just a typo on the magazine/album thingy there, not how you actually called Goku wherever you're from

As >>679457 explained, it was a retaded translation made by infamous Harmony Gold (who borught us Macross, Southern Cross and Mospeada as "Robotech"), they called Goku "Zero", and Yamcha was called "Redacki". That thing you see there is an "Album of Figuritas" (sticker album), popular here in Argentina amongst kids during school, you buy a pack of 4 or 5 stickers at the drugstore, and trade them with your friends. As you go collecting them, you stick them on the album. There were several DB and DBZ albums on Argentina during the years when the DB boom started (1997/98), but this album here was the very first one (and in my opinion, the best, albeit awful translation), released in 1996 were only the first 10 or so episodes of DB aired on TV, and only parts of the DBZ movies were aired here on TV, during 1995 or so... this was because a toy company called Jocsa had aqcuired the rights from ban dai for some reason even though DBZ wasn't known here, we didn't know anything about DB yet, except the most extreme otaku of the time I guess.
The toys didn't sold it was a failure, but I guess they got a hold of DBZ footage from ban dai... and that's how it ended up being broadcasted on a videogame TV show called "Top Kids".

So what Cromy (the sticker album makers) did with the DB album was make it half DB, half DBZ... I remember getting this album as a kid, having only seen 10 eps of DB (dubbed as "Zero", so it didn't seem weird to me) and a bit of DBZ movies (didn't understood shit, but niggas be exploding everything so I liked it).
