Dragon Ball Fusions Videos Show New Fusion Characters, Story
posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
The official website of Bandai Namco Entertainment's upcoming Dragon Ball Fusions Nintendo 3DS game began streaming a promotional video and commercial for the game on Saturday and Tuesday. The first video shows the EX Fusion system introduced in the game, which allows for new and never-before-seen fusions between characters. The second video previews the game's story.
The game shipped in Japan on August 4.
An earlier issue of Weekly Shonen Jump had described the game as follows:
You (the protagonist) and Pinijji wish for Shenron to start the greatest and strongest martial arts tournament. He grants your wish, and the "Jikūichi Budōkai" (Number 1 in Time Space Martial Arts Tournament) begins!
Naomi Shindoh voices Pinijji in the game. The game puts a large focus on fusion characters. By using a Capsule Corp-made bracelet, new fusions called "EX Fusions" have become possible. New fusions include Karoly (Kakarot (Goku) x Broly; spelled the same way as "calorie" in Japanese), Gorillin (young Goku x Krillin), Krigohan (Gohan x Krillin; a pun on the word chestnut rice), and Prillin (Piccolo x Krillin).
The game's Nintendo 3DS bundle includes a New Nintendo 3DS LL (XL in North America) unit with a Dragon Ball Fusions themed design (seen right). The bundle also includes the unit's documentation, warranty, a copy of the game, an original menu theme, and the contents of the first print limited edition.
First print limited editions included a download code that allows players to use Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Son Goku immediately from the start of the game, and a "Gohanks EX" card that can be used in the Dragon Ball Heroes arcade game.
A manga adaptation of the game debuted in Shueisha's Saikyō Jump magazine on April 1.
