"Ultimate Tenkaichi" was a name voted by fans back in 2011. In Japan it isn't called "Sparking" so it's not connected to the Sparking/Budokai Tenkaichi series.
Budokai Tenkaichi never fell off. Even we last saw it, it was at its peak with BT3.

I love Tenkaichi 3 for the faster pace gameplay and large roster but Tenkaichi 2 is my personal favorite because of the story mode and while Tenkaichi 3 did add in game dialogue and in game cutscenes, it left out a lot of my favorite fights like Trunks vs Frieza, Future Gohan vs the androids (which is strange since this was the first game besides Sagas to have Future Gohan playable),and Gohan vs Super Buu
@sonicfan248610 ай бұрын
Not doing Gohan vs Super Buu was a weird choice cuz that's the scenario they use for Training Tests😂 I guess they gave us more than enough of a Toy box to do what we want, but some in-fight dialogue would be nice 😅

Apparently no one played using the motion controls, but they were way better in BT2 as well. A lot of them used the IR pointer which was very precise, but BT3 ditched the cursor entirely and made them all 100% waggle. Was pretty disappointed since I got really used to the motion controls and was never that good at fighting games on a normal controller.

BT2 is actually a better game then BT3. BT3 is praised more because: Everyone jumps on the bandwagon without giving it a thought. Also: -Better skill ladder, more variety of combos basically. -Much longer story mode. BT3 is more casual friendly and have a much shorter story mod. Although BT3 has better/harder A.I if you have nothing to find against.

Thank you Hidden for this amazing documentary, I used an emulator to get BT2 and BT3 and I own Raging blast and Raging blast 2 I have maxed all the games and I fell in love with them my first exposure to the tenkaichi series was Raging blast 2 (ironically it was also my first ever exposure to dragon ball) and I fell in love with it I would play at my friends house with my brother and we played hours together, growing up I longed to try its prequel so I purchased it and had soo much fun until I got bored it was after the anouncement of BT4 that I decided to download BT2 and BT3 on my emulator I spent hours on both games and fully maxed them and till now i'm still playing with them and enjoying the ultimates and roster I also amped the graphics to have a high resolution game. My favourite tenkaichi game was always BT3 but BT2 has become my favourite having a great story with an incredible score that plays hours in my head, nothing will ever top this series and it really has changed dbz games forever as it inspired Xenoverse and Battle of Z. I will never forget the impact tenkaichi has had on my life and I can't thank you enough for covering this Hidden.

I grew up playing Tenkaichi 2 A LOT. It is so criminally underrated. Be it having the best soundtrack (besides the Budokai series), but also one of the best layouts for the story of Dragon Ball. Although it might not be as super fast paced as 3, it actually has more variety in combos. If you were to combine the story of 2 (plus 3's cutscenes and dialogue) with the character selection and a combination of both fighting mechanics- Tenkaichi 2 + Tenkaichi 3 make the perfect DBZ game!

As well made this video is the part about BT3 being labeled as the pinnacle and best of the Budokai Tenkaichi series in the video when BT2 is my personal favorite didn't sit well with me. I also find BT3 to have better gameplay, better arena stages, and a dynamic roaster. On the other hand, I also find BT2 to have memorable song tracks, better canon/non-canon story modes, and better content compared to BT3. I still consider BT3 to be the greatest DBZ fighting game of all time while BT2 captured the greatest DBZ game experience of all time. There is a chance that BT4 can do both. With that being said I still view both of them somewhat equally in quality. I thought that segment on BT3 was way more lenient and generous compared to both segments on BT1 & BT2. Other than that this was a really good video.

It was always a really weird system to me, but honestly the Uzumaki Chronicles games as a whole are weird to me.
