The crazy thing about these Budokai games is the unknown cancel combos that allow for stylish combo chains, there's even a small community on KZbin that plays Budokai this way. It adds a whole new level to the game.

That game is so nostalgic and i still have my copy of that game even to this day. That game is one of things that help got me through my dark time of being in such an awful filthy living environment that I've lived in from September 2002-December 2003. It's hilarious/funny hearing Imperfect Cell's voice in Perfect Cell's body whenever Perfect Cell takes damage. One of the goofiest things that i loved to do while playing that game was pause the game at the right timing of hitting certain characters (Mainly Cell) to hear the character's funny voices of the characters being hit. That game was revolutionary despite it being obsolete.

Great vid, Budokai 1 was what introduced me to Dragon Ball and was what lead to me getting Budokai 2 (which was what fully got me into the franchise), so it’ll always hold a special place in my heart. With the “King Kai Fist” thing, it’s a loose translation of Kaioken so I’m guessing they just wanted it to be consistent with other translations. Also with Vegeta having Boo Saga attire in the menu, another weird thing is one of the PAL versions’ covers (the one I own at least) having characters like Spopovich & Majin Vegeta on its cover (I think it even has Boo himself). I REALLY don’t know what they were thinking with that 😂

Maybe I liked this DBZ game the most cuz it was my happiest time in life as well I dunno, Great vid lives up some memories. I hated Gokus SSJ form cuz of tons of ki it needed to keep it up. Man Trunks was my fav one almost did not need any to keep his blonde cool form. Fun fact goku does way more DMG when he is SSJ compared to vegeta or Trunks though

Just few notes, you used the japanese anime intro music when comparing the game intros, but did you know that the japanese budokai intro is a recreation of the anime intro. The Gamecube improved on the visuals because they had time and also the PS2 graphics chip is not the best. And yes, King Kai Fist is kinda correct since Kaio-Ken can be translated to Kaios Fist/Punch or something like that. And several things you wished for, like the mini games you wish existed here, you wont be disapointed in the future :). Good Luck with Budokai 2 as that game is full of secrets.

This is the first Dragon Ball game I ever played as a little kid,I had it for the Nintendo Gamecube. When I played the PS2 version I noticed the characters had huge outlines around their eyes which bothered me. The burst mode in this game is the best out of the Budokai series,the cutscenes in the storymode hold up to this day and I personally think it has the best cutscenes out of any Dragon Ball game. The soundtrack is awesome even though it's plagiarized,I listen to it from time to time while I'm working out at the gym. I played this game again when the HD collection was released,was pissed off that the original music was taken out. I rarely go back to play this game but if I do it would usually just be for World Tournament mode.

I loved Budokai when i was a kid. I just wished it wouldve covered the Buu saga. All i wanted when i was a kid was a game with budokai 1 style storymode wirh cool cutscenes that covered the 4 main sagas. When budokai 2 came out, thats what i expected. I was so disappointed at the board game story mode. Life hit hard in 2004 and i never got to play Budokai 3 or anything else up until Xenoverse. I recently tried playing kakarot...i hate the gameplay of it. I feel like kakarot is my dream dbz game as a child, but it's just not for me at this point.

I never played the first one, but I'm curious about it now, especially when you talk about the difficulties of watching the anime on free TV. In Brazil DBZ was on air at the same time I was in school, so I only watched it during summer, thanks to that never had the chance to watch the Frieza Saga until I was an adult. I would've loved this game back when I was a kid, oh well, at least I had a few laughs with friends while playing Super Butouden 3.
