Just wanted to shoutout our editor Lock who put together this massive video on short notice as well as Simon, our illustrator, who made an absolutely beautiful piece to accompany it. None of this is possible without the team. 🙏
1. Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 2. Dragon Ball Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3. Dragon Ball Z: Legacy of Goku 2 4. Dragon Ball Z: Raging Blast 2 5. Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Battle 22 (because it was the first DB game I ever played)
My guy, that thumbnail goes hard. 🔥 I never thought Toriyama would pass away so suddenly, always thought he would still be here by 2035, still making DB. Hearts go out to his family and close friends 🙏🏾❣️
Budokai 2 and Tenkaichi 2 are my definitive absolute favourites out of all the games. I know a tonne of people love Budokai 3 and Tenkaichi 3 which they’re not wrong both are AMAZING games my heart will just always be with both middle games of both series. Absolute awesome video retro RIP to Akira we will miss him within the Dragonball world!!!!
Never played Budokai 2 having gone straight from 1 to 3 but BT2 is definitely the best of that series due to the story mode being way more engaging. Roster is the same but just with a few added non significant ones in 3 but both are amazing.
No introduction, just to the point and giving Toriyama the props he's earned, respect Matty. Dragon Ball was the very first anime I ever familiarized myself with (and I'm positive most of you have too). Akira not only impacted just anime, but the world in general. The man truly was a legend who touched tens of millions with his work. He will NEVER be forgotten! And your thumbnail *chefs kiss*
Toriyama was a one of one, and you instantly knew he was behind the art. You like to read he got you, like TV/Movies got you, video games guess what he got you. The general influence he has in general entertainment is just not fully able to be comprehended by the average person who likely had at least one positive interaction with his art
I think what initially got me into this channel was your coverage of the Budokai Tenkaichi series. I've always loved Dragon Ball ever since I was young. So when I got my hands on the first Budokai game on ps2 (Bought at a flea market in a jewel case and everything) I was hooked. It opened the universe of Dragon ball like no other for me. I recall late nights on Toonami watching the android and cell saga when I would have to wake up the next day for school. I also remember playing with my friends, battling to see who was the better Saiyan. I guess what I mean by all of this is thanks for making these sorts of videos covering the things of my childhood. And a greater thank you to Toriyama himself for being the father of the things I love most. Thank you.
I haven't played a DragonBall game in a long time, but they really impacted my childhood. 1. My uncle imported DragonBall GT Final Bout on ps1 and it was magical. I had no idea what it was at the time because I didn't know that GT existed. 2. I picked up Ultimate Battle 22 randomly at a Target with some spare kid change I had. Ha. The graphics blew me away. Beautiful game. 3. Buu's Fury was also a random buy, but I got so addicted to it. Loved being able to fly around too. 4. I was able to get one of the reprinted versions of Budokai 3 from the Bandai Namco store with King Piccolo and other extras added to it. Me and my best friend at the time used to stay up all night and go mad playing it. 5 I remember having trouble with Tenkaichi at first. The controls were so foreign to me and I practically gave up. My love of DBZ kept me pushing and it remains a memorable moment in my gaming career. I loved FighterZ, but didn't stick with it. I keep wanting to get DBZ Kakarot, but I just haven't yet. I'm sure I'll love it.
All throughout my life dragon ball has been one of the most important things to me, as a person. Like many people here, it's helped me when times were hard, it gave me so many chances, experiences and memories and none of it would be possible without Akira Toriyama. Thank you Toriyama, for creating this beautiful piece of art that touched so many people, and will continue to do so. See you in other world, Tori-Bot.
On a lighter note, thank you so much for mentioning dragon ball fusions, its an underrated gem that not enough people talk about! Thank you, and thank you Toriyama.
We lost a great legend, and Akira Toriyama was that guy who brought so much joy into our childhood. I never forget playing Budokai Tenkaichi 3, and now the fourth game is coming out. I'll play it in his honor. RIP Akira Toriyama
Even at 31, the legacy games always hold such a special place in my heart. Never got to finish Buus Fury but luckily I have a physical Gameboy that works as an emulator to help relive this. Especially now.
As far back as I can remember my first ever experience with Dragon ball was when my cousin brought over his copy of Budokai 1 on the PS2 to my aunt's house. When I say I was hooked I mean I literally couldn't take my eyes off it; The character designs were striking, the gameplay fun, the story intriguing, and the Music was phenomenal... plagiarized... But phenomenal none the less XD. After that I basically gushed over anything having to do with Dragon ball, it was literally a part of my life.... Too a point where I think my family got tired of me constantly bringing up anything to do with Dragon ball. It was thanks to Dragon ball that I was able to meet some of my friends in middle school cause they loved the series too. This series will always have a place in my heart as one of my Favorites and I wouldn't have it any other way. Thank you Mr Toriyama, may you rest in peace.
I'm not the biggest fan of Dragon Ball, mostly just watching people play FighterZ in tournaments, but as a really big Dragon Quest fan I'm still deeply saddened to hear of Toriyama's passing. The series is what made me really fall in love with RPGs when I got into the series with 9 at its launch, and I wouldn't have bought it if it weren't for me having the same thought you did in that the art looked like Dragon Ball's (I didn't watch the anime, but I at least knew of it and its art style back then).
Also the Dragon Quest games are *really* good, with the general consensus that 3, 4, 5, 8, and 11/11S are the highlights of the series. Highly recommend.
I remember getting into DBZ WAY BACK in 2013 me and my brothers would watch DBZ (their parodies back in new grounds) The amazing TFS DBZ ABRIDGED series and yes even their video games! When I heard the news that the creator passed away it made my heart drop and I seriously broke down crying! I love the raging blast burst limit super DBZ on ps2 And the classic budikai!
I don't have you beaten but the first episode I ever saw at my cousin's was prob in 2003 at most, Goku had just met Frieza and their energy especially when Goku charged Frieza it kept me watching. When the fight actually started and they really started throwing down I was so hooked, I didn't understand the beef or what a Saiyan was but the battle was so intense my cousin was a huge fan at the time so he explained everything to me. @@chrisj320ac3
Thank so much for bringing up dragon Ball fusions . It's my favorite game of all time , I was really sad when nobody was talking about it that much. I remember watching playthroughs of the Japanese version of the game before it came to the West . I remember my dad getting it for me for my 8th birthday , I was so happy . I remember spending hours playing the game and watching walk throughs. My dad died on the 1st just like Toriyama , so it been a rough couple days . But thank you so much for mentioning my favorite game it really made my day
Ahhh matty this video is such a tribute I appreciate this so much when I heard the news I was so speechless and heart I woke up to this news at 1am to then cry and not be able to go back to sleep… I still can’t believe it but but he’s work will live on what he brought to this world will never be forgotten and he will be a staple for what people should look forward to being like in the future! Thanks for this video matty as a fan of dragon ball and your content this was an incredible video and lockmort great job editing this man! Nothing but the best from RR Crew
I grew up playing dragon ball z budokai tenkaichi 3. In fact I still play it and it’s still one of the best dbz games out there. So many characters to play ass, the special moves look fantastic, and it has so much stuff for you to do. It’s what eventually got me to start watching dragon ball z Kai even. Eventually I would start playing more like xenoverse 2, fighterz, and you bet that I’m going to play sparking zero Rest easy Toriyama, you did good work
Dragon Ball: Fusions is one of my favorite 3DS games ever, and my favorite DBZ game besides Budokai Tenkaichi 2, and Xenoverse 2. Many times have I thought about buying a 3DS again just to play it.
Thank you for making this video matty I am very happy you did. I recently commented on your kakarot video because I picked it back up to finish it this time and you talking about the trunks dlc really gave me a lot more hope for it.
RIP to the goat, still doesn’t feel real. lost my dad a couple months ago, and my cat 2 months before that. shit feels like it’s never ending and super depressing 😖
I’ve played so many Dragon Ball games in my life but just this past January, I played Attack of the Saiyans on the DS for the first time and what an amazing game that is. Makes me sad we never got a sequel that at least covered the namek saga. RIP Akira Toriyama and thank you.
Can’t believe I forgot about that game! Such a great and unique take on the traditional turn based JRPG formula. We have so many Dragon Ball fighting games and arena fighters that it really feels like something special when we get something like this. I really feel we need more games like this, Fusions, and SDBH World Mission. I’m glad we are getting Sparking Zero, but now that we are finally getting what is essentially Tenkaichi 4 and we have FighterZ I hope we will get more games that use the license in more creative ways. We don’t need more fighters/arena fighters right now
Rest in peace Akira Toriyama, may you never be forgotten. Inspirational and legendary. The inspiration for me to learn to draw, to fall in love with Martial Arts to the point it was more fun than sports. And I agree Matty, Trunks is one of my all-time favorites, the worlds and designs are indeed incredible. I wanted to fly and run through the worlds aimlessly on adventures growing up. 💯
Legacy of Goku 2 was always one of my favorite DBZ games. To me, it was one of the best action RPGs on the GBA. I wish they did more games like it for all of the sagas, especially remaking the first Legacy of Goku game and made it better. Would’ve been sweet to see more games based on Dragon Ball Super and even GT, or even the original Dragon Ball series in a game like LOG2.
DBSCG is my favourite TCG, tabletop game, and probably, holistically, game ever. It’s like 90% of the reason why I fell down the path of opening my own LGS and it’s something I have a lot of pride in supporting with our weekly FUSION WORLD tourneys. Love the slab collection, would love you to show you my own some time!
Budokai, Budokai Tenkaichi and Legacy of Goku games all in their entirety…. Loved those games and they all hold a place in my childhood that just takes me back to good times
I remember waking up in the early 90s every Saturday morning to watch DBZ, and not just any old DBZ, but the OCEANIC! Dub. That’s how old I am lol, I watched it since before the funimation dub lol. As a kid I always loved to draw and I would always draw characters in Toriyama-Sensei’s style and I got really good at it and he always has such an impact on me. And the Dragonball franchise is one that’s always been close to my heart. I was deeply saddened to hear of his passing.
When I was like 9 I had 1 bootleg dbz vhs it had 4 episodes on it where trunks comes to warn the main man of the androids and I had no internet nothing to follow it up so I had no idea how its gonna unfold the first game I played at 13 was tenkaichi one but the game that finally told me the story the first time was tenkaichi 2 and budokai 1. Don't think I'll ever forget those days full of childlike wonder and excitement 😢 R.I.P Toriyama sensei thank you for making our childhood awesome 🥲
I’ve gone back and replaying all the old dragon ball games and I’m so grateful how many memories I’ve made thanks to Akira Toriyama and his amazing work in both the dragon ball and dragon quest series. As I grew with them and I hope the legacy his made forever lives on. ❤
Some of my earliest media memories have to do with Dragon Ball, growing up I loved the show and still grab almost every game I could get my hands on; I have so many good memories connected to the series as a whole that it hurt me more than any other celebrity death ever has😢
I grew up with the anime he created, it definitely has a very special place in my heart and soul during my childhood days and even now. RIP To The Legend Akira Toriyama, the creator of Dragon Ball Z Universe, Thank You for all of the entertainment you're provided. Your Legacy will never be forgotten... 🙂🙏☯️🙃 Despite all the DBZ games that have come out over the years, BT1 has the most badass and authentic Intro of all of DBZ games of the Franchise. BT2 and BT3 in my opinion still remains the most Unique and the best DBZ games in terms of content, quality and fanservices. And from the gameplay perspective aspects, these DBZ games that I mentioned are very close to the anime itself because of the Vibe and Charm, I don't know how to describe it but it was, and still is the most Unique DBZ experience you could have with the combat factor. (- Sheer amount de of characters - Transformations mid-battle (powering up and down) - Fusions mid-battle - Fast gameplay that has that "woah" feel - Tons of extra content - Story mode covering all sagas + movies - What If sagas - Shenron having permanent impact on game (character unlocks and whatnot) - Great tournaments that rotate availability - Edit characters with items (buffs) - 5v5 battles - Really Great and Epic Soundtracks - Destroyable environments - Entire stages could be blown up into their "destroyed" alternatives - Mission 100 being a great challenge - Artwork is 10/10 - Sound effects are great - Combat feels heavy and satisfying) Only Budokai 3, Infinite World and the Raging Blast 1 and 2 and all of PSP DBZ games except of Dragon Ball Z Evolution are still considered also very solid DBZ games, also the hidden gem that a lot of DBZ fans missed from PS2 Era of DBZ games is "Super Dragon Ball Z" which is also a real Unique and DBZ game, especially for the different gameplay aspects perspective.
I’ve never been a part of a DBZ community or anything so I never knew the impact of LOG:2 but even as a not DBZ fan in me. That is straight nostalgia because me and my brothers would FIGHT to have more time on the gameboy to play that game.
Rest in peace you Legend... You make my Favorite Anime... And you have the Artstyle of my Favorite Game... My ChildHood Was so much fun... I'm the Kid who always Make a Kamehameha in my T.V. And Pretend to be a Super Saiyan May you have a great ride with Shenron... And Have fun with King Kai...
When I first moved out on my own at 17 my roommate and I played his ps2 dragon ball z fighting game daily. I never watched the show that was my first real exposure to the series. I loved it. Later I got a copy of the Dragon Ball game on GBA that was a JRPG that covered the story of the show apparently pretty well
Thank you for doing this was looking forward to it ever since you said you would in your last video rip to the legend he will live in hearts around the world for years to come for so many of us
The Legacy of Goku games is my perfect DB game that I wish could of came out on console and got that graphical and combat boost included, that game was so fun growing up literally had LOG2 from the time I was a kid to now 31 just sitting in my old Gameboy Advance
Great video thank you 🙏🏽 It made me very nostalgic, what a man, what an influence he had on so many people and will continue to for a long time i think. RIP
Also I just need to say how unbelievably jealous I am of your collection when it comes to getting the box and manuals, it adds so much more passion to the videos
I just played two dragon Ball games for the PS 2 . Didn't get much further into the series but yeah playing those games was like rewatching the anime. I didn't know there were so many other DB related games.
Tenkaichi 3 is my favorite but I owe my fandom to the og Budokai. One of my cousins gave me a GameCube when I was young and Budokai was one of the games with it. I was 7 and knew what the characters looked like but didn’t know much else about the series. The presentation of the game is extremely on point and that plagiarized soundtrack is some next level stuff. I still think of specific songs at points when I go back and re-read the series.
Rip Toriyama sensei, you truly changed nd comforted my childhood, top 5 games 5. Dbz Fighterz 4. Super Dragonball Heroes World Mission( Matty my guy… you HAVE to do a video on it, especially bc you like dbz card games.) 3. Dbz Xenoverse 2 2. Dbz Raging Blast 2 1. Dbz Budokai Tenkaichi 3( as if it would be a surprise)
A lot of people will try to capitalize off of someone passing away with videos… I don’t think anyone could say that about you and this video when they see the passion you have… let alone you start off with the super niche card game. That is the mark of a true fan!
Rest in peace to the undisputed goat of anime and manga the man the myth the legend who single-handedly brought Japanese Media to the Western world and made it mainstream and in some aspects above Western cartoons the world really lost an absolute legend on March 1st but instead of morning his death let's celebrate his life
Fun fact of Budokai Tenkaichi 2, the ost "Lost Courage" is heavily suspected to have been sampled by Elly Goulding for her song "Burn" which is pretty ironic given that the Budakai series plagerized from many well known artists along with the Bruce Falkner allegations for the series and the Legacy of Goku series. I think they all underestimated how big Dragonball would be and thought no one would notice, both composers have sense been fired I believe😂
I probably played most DragonBall games but in xenoverse I put the most of my time. I 100% that game and for everybody who knows how many moves, costumes and characters are to unlock in that game can atest that that was a big acomplishment. I remember grinding in the namek missions for dragonballs for days at a time
I recently mastered Buu's Fury on RetroAchievements. Action RPGs are my bread and butter so it will always be one of my favorites! Budukai 2 and 3, Legacy of Goku 2, and Dragon Ball Origins 2.
I never watched dragonball like that but the Budokai and og dragonball made some core memories w some of the only friends i've had and i see how much his series normalized anime in the west....w/o him idk if i'd of liked anime like today- ty toriyama
We need Fusions 2. I will die on this hill, more times than Goku. That game has more heart and care put into it than any other Dragonball game. It was neglected when being brought to the west. This games deserves a sequel more than Budokai or even Fighterz, because it never got a fair shot.
@retrobound8887 There is a 2D tekken style game available for the ps4/Xbox1 called Dragonball Fighter Z if you are looking or that vibe. Great game! Dig your channel my man! Keep it going!
"It's gonna sound corny.....inspires me to go to the gym" There are many of us who are at the gym training at the gym to become our favorite Dragon Ball character. I, for one, am going to become strong like Vegeta so I can finally defeat Kakarot in a spar.
My top dragon ball games are Buu’s Fury, Attack of the Saiyans, Budokai 2, Tenkaichi 2, Advanced Adventure, FighterZ, Kakarot. Still salty the hd collection of budokai didnt include budokai 2
I kind of mad of myself for giving away some of my dragon ball games. I had fusions, saiyans attack (although my cousin own it he should have gave it to me instead of our friends personally), revenge of king piccolo. Like if it wasn’t for bt2 i swear i wouldn’t know the hyperfixation i had on dbz. Im gonna miss that man. Really made my childhood
I had no idea the TCG went so hard. I've been visiting random DB fan pages on social media and looking at the comments, I need to look at the TCG community
Burst Limit was my introduction to Dragon Ball its the reason i love Dragon Ball and just anime in general so 1. Burst Limit 2. Raging Blast 2 3. BT3 4. DBZK 5.DBXV2 or DBFZ
Just wanted to shoutout our editor Lock who put together this massive video on short notice as well as Simon, our illustrator, who made an absolutely beautiful piece to accompany it. None of this is possible without the team. 🙏
Thank you retro rebound team! It's crazy how many lives this man has touched.
A job well done by the team. Is such a warming experience to see Toriyama's legacy being respected. Dragon Ball will live on.
The true trap lords
I m very happy you got to express your passion through video format and pay your respects. His legacy is forever!!!! #ThankYouToriyama
Thank YEW Lock, Thank YEW Simon
Thank you Toriyama-sensei 🕊️🫡❤️
R.I.P to The GOAT 🕊
Toriyama is running laps on the Snake Way as we speak 🙏
With dragon ball z being my first anime I’ve ever watched it broke my heart hearing akira passed away guy was my hero and may he rest in peace
1. Dragon Ball Z: Budokai
2. Dragon Ball Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi
3. Dragon Ball Z: Legacy of Goku 2
4. Dragon Ball Z: Raging Blast 2
5. Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Battle 22 (because it was the first DB game I ever played)
My guy, that thumbnail goes hard. 🔥
I never thought Toriyama would pass away so suddenly, always thought he would still be here by 2035, still making DB.
Hearts go out to his family and close friends 🙏🏾❣️

Legendary super warriors for gameboy color is super underrated
Rest in peace Akira Toriyama, may you never be forgotten. Inspirational and legendary. The inspiration for me to learn to draw, to fall in love with Martial Arts to the point it was more fun than sports. And I agree Matty, Trunks is one of my all-time favorites, the worlds and designs are indeed incredible. I wanted to fly and run through the worlds aimlessly on adventures growing up. 💯
Seeing Blue Dragon get mentioned made me happy, one of my favorite games. Toriyama really made some great worlds.
Legacy of Goku 2 was always one of my favorite DBZ games. To me, it was one of the best action RPGs on the GBA. I wish they did more games like it for all of the sagas, especially remaking the first Legacy of Goku game and made it better. Would’ve been sweet to see more games based on Dragon Ball Super and even GT, or even the original Dragon Ball series in a game like LOG2.
DBSCG is my favourite TCG, tabletop game, and probably, holistically, game ever. It’s like 90% of the reason why I fell down the path of opening my own LGS and it’s something I have a lot of pride in supporting with our weekly FUSION WORLD tourneys. Love the slab collection, would love you to show you my own some time!
Budokai, Budokai Tenkaichi and Legacy of Goku games all in their entirety…. Loved those games and they all hold a place in my childhood that just takes me back to good times
I remember waking up in the early 90s every Saturday morning to watch DBZ, and not just any old DBZ, but the OCEANIC! Dub. That’s how old I am lol, I watched it since before the funimation dub lol.
As a kid I always loved to draw and I would always draw characters in Toriyama-Sensei’s style and I got really good at it and he always has such an impact on me. And the Dragonball franchise is one that’s always been close to my heart. I was deeply saddened to hear of his passing.
I wonder if people have any idea how many works of fiction only, movies and video games, only exist because of Dragon Ball...
Loved this matty, thankyou! Made my day!
Glad you made this video so we can continue to celebrate his life’s work.
When I was like 9 I had 1 bootleg dbz vhs it had 4 episodes on it where trunks comes to warn the main man of the androids and I had no internet nothing to follow it up so I had no idea how its gonna unfold the first game I played at 13 was tenkaichi one but the game that finally told me the story the first time was tenkaichi 2 and budokai 1. Don't think I'll ever forget those days full of childlike wonder and excitement 😢 R.I.P Toriyama sensei thank you for making our childhood awesome 🥲
I’ve gone back and replaying all the old dragon ball games and I’m so grateful how many memories I’ve made thanks to Akira Toriyama and his amazing work in both the dragon ball and dragon quest series. As I grew with them and I hope the legacy his made forever lives on. ❤
Some of my earliest media memories have to do with Dragon Ball, growing up I loved the show and still grab almost every game I could get my hands on; I have so many good memories connected to the series as a whole that it hurt me more than any other celebrity death ever has😢
I grew up with the anime he created, it definitely has a very special place in my heart and soul during my childhood days and even now. RIP To The Legend Akira Toriyama, the creator of Dragon Ball Z Universe, Thank You for all of the entertainment you're provided. Your Legacy will never be forgotten... 🙂🙏☯️🙃 Despite all the DBZ games that have come out over the years, BT1 has the most badass and authentic Intro of all of DBZ games of the Franchise. BT2 and BT3 in my opinion still remains the most Unique and the best DBZ games in terms of content, quality and fanservices. And from the gameplay perspective aspects, these DBZ games that I mentioned are very close to the anime itself because of the Vibe and Charm, I don't know how to describe it but it was, and still is the most Unique DBZ experience you could have with the combat factor. (- Sheer amount de of characters
- Transformations mid-battle (powering up and down)
- Fusions mid-battle
- Fast gameplay that has that "woah" feel
- Tons of extra content
- Story mode covering all sagas + movies
- What If sagas
- Shenron having permanent impact on game (character unlocks and whatnot)
- Great tournaments that rotate availability
- Edit characters with items (buffs)
- 5v5 battles
- Really Great and Epic Soundtracks
- Destroyable environments
- Entire stages could be blown up into their "destroyed" alternatives
- Mission 100 being a great challenge
- Artwork is 10/10
- Sound effects are great
- Combat feels heavy and satisfying) Only Budokai 3, Infinite World and the Raging Blast 1 and 2 and all of PSP DBZ games except of Dragon Ball Z Evolution are still considered also very solid DBZ games, also the hidden gem that a lot of DBZ fans missed from PS2 Era of DBZ games is "Super Dragon Ball Z" which is also a real Unique and DBZ game, especially for the different gameplay aspects perspective.
I’ve never been a part of a DBZ community or anything so I never knew the impact of LOG:2 but even as a not DBZ fan in me. That is straight nostalgia because me and my brothers would FIGHT to have more time on the gameboy to play that game.
Rest in peace you Legend...
You make my Favorite Anime...
And you have the Artstyle of my Favorite Game...
My ChildHood Was so much fun...
I'm the Kid who always Make a Kamehameha in my T.V.
And Pretend to be a Super Saiyan
May you have a great ride with Shenron...
And Have fun with King Kai...
When I first moved out on my own at 17 my roommate and I played his ps2 dragon ball z fighting game daily. I never watched the show that was my first real exposure to the series. I loved it. Later I got a copy of the Dragon Ball game on GBA that was a JRPG that covered the story of the show apparently pretty well
Thank you for doing this was looking forward to it ever since you said you would in your last video rip to the legend he will live in hearts around the world for years to come for so many of us
it still feels a little unreal.
but life will go on and his story is here to stay.
thank you toriyama, for everything.
Love this video! Always wanted to get into the card game. Your cards are amazing
The Legacy of Goku games is my perfect DB game that I wish could of came out on console and got that graphical and combat boost included, that game was so fun growing up literally had LOG2 from the time I was a kid to now 31 just sitting in my old Gameboy Advance
Raging blast 2 will always be my favorite I used to play it all the time with my cousin on his Xbox
Thanks for the great video. Would love to see coverage of more OG Dragon Ball games, such as Origins 1+2 or Revenge of King Piccolo.
Great video thank you 🙏🏽
It made me very nostalgic, what a man, what an influence he had on so many people and will continue to for a long time i think.
RIP
Also I just need to say how unbelievably jealous I am of your collection when it comes to getting the box and manuals, it adds so much more passion to the videos
Loved all the old school games
I just played two dragon Ball games for the PS 2 . Didn't get much further into the series but yeah playing those games was like rewatching the anime. I didn't know there were so many other DB related games.
I was 4 when Legacy of Goku 2 came out and it holds a special place in my heart
One of my fav games of all time
Tenkaichi 3 is my favorite but I owe my fandom to the og Budokai. One of my cousins gave me a GameCube when I was young and Budokai was one of the games with it. I was 7 and knew what the characters looked like but didn’t know much else about the series. The presentation of the game is extremely on point and that plagiarized soundtrack is some next level stuff. I still think of specific songs at points when I go back and re-read the series.
Rip Toriyama sensei, you truly changed nd comforted my childhood, top 5 games
5. Dbz Fighterz
4. Super Dragonball Heroes World Mission( Matty my guy… you HAVE to do a video on it, especially bc you like dbz card games.)
3. Dbz Xenoverse 2
2. Dbz Raging Blast 2
1. Dbz Budokai Tenkaichi 3( as if it would be a surprise)
Attack of the saiyans and goku densetsu are also rly amazong games. Especially densetsu, the card game is so underrated
A lot of people will try to capitalize off of someone passing away with videos… I don’t think anyone could say that about you and this video when they see the passion you have… let alone you start off with the super niche card game. That is the mark of a true fan!
Great video man! 🔥🔥🔥
My boi putting respect on the card game! Atta boi Matty!!!
Great video Matt!
Trunks bringing the gym outta you is dope
Rest in peace to the undisputed goat of anime and manga the man the myth the legend who single-handedly brought Japanese Media to the Western world and made it mainstream and in some aspects above Western cartoons the world really lost an absolute legend on March 1st but instead of morning his death let's celebrate his life
Legacy of goku 2 was a great one i got as a kid
The legacy of Goku games were so amazing back in the day.
I remember playing a game called dragonball origins on the DS. It wasn't a perfect game but I had sooo much fun with it
Matty saying trunks is his gym inspiration is goated 😂
Thank you for honoring his name. Rip Akira Toriyama ❤️❤️
Fun fact of Budokai Tenkaichi 2, the ost "Lost Courage" is heavily suspected to have been sampled by Elly Goulding for her song "Burn" which is pretty ironic given that the Budakai series plagerized from many well known artists along with the Bruce Falkner allegations for the series and the Legacy of Goku series. I think they all underestimated how big Dragonball would be and thought no one would notice, both composers have sense been fired I believe😂
I probably played most DragonBall games but in xenoverse I put the most of my time. I 100% that game and for everybody who knows how many moves, costumes and characters are to unlock in that game can atest that that was a big acomplishment. I remember grinding in the namek missions for dragonballs for days at a time
I recently mastered Buu's Fury on RetroAchievements. Action RPGs are my bread and butter so it will always be one of my favorites! Budukai 2 and 3, Legacy of Goku 2, and Dragon Ball Origins 2.
I love these Dragon Ball Z games!
God Legacy of Goku series was so good 😭 I use to bring Buu’s Fury with me to school and play it during math 💀💀💀
Seeing all these dope trailers from back then they gotta come correct for the Budokai Tenkaichi 4 trailer when they’re finished making the game
Legacy of Goku was one of my earliest games
I never watched dragonball like that but the Budokai and og dragonball made some core memories w some of the only friends i've had and i see how much his series normalized anime in the west....w/o him idk if i'd of liked anime like today- ty toriyama
We need Fusions 2. I will die on this hill, more times than Goku. That game has more heart and care put into it than any other Dragonball game. It was neglected when being brought to the west. This games deserves a sequel more than Budokai or even Fighterz, because it never got a fair shot.
@retrobound8887
There is a 2D tekken style game available for the ps4/Xbox1 called Dragonball Fighter Z if you are looking or that vibe. Great game! Dig your channel my man! Keep it going!
Akira Toriyama was a legend.
"It's gonna sound corny.....inspires me to go to the gym"
There are many of us who are at the gym training at the gym to become our favorite Dragon Ball character. I, for one, am going to become strong like Vegeta so I can finally defeat Kakarot in a spar.
My top dragon ball games are Buu’s Fury, Attack of the Saiyans, Budokai 2, Tenkaichi 2, Advanced Adventure, FighterZ, Kakarot. Still salty the hd collection of budokai didnt include budokai 2
Good thing I got some of them on my Ayn Odin 2
My favorite games were definitely Budokai 3 and Budokai Tenkaichi 3. Both of them were amazing games that I still own to this day
I kind of mad of myself for giving away some of my dragon ball games. I had fusions, saiyans attack (although my cousin own it he should have gave it to me instead of our friends personally), revenge of king piccolo. Like if it wasn’t for bt2 i swear i wouldn’t know the hyperfixation i had on dbz. Im gonna miss that man. Really made my childhood
I’m the opposite, never played any Dragonball but huge fan of Dragon Quest and Chrono Trigger. RIP❤
Thank you so much for fulfilling our request. ❤
Losing Toriyama and Muira ( Berserk) broke my heart man.
Super cool :)) 🌟💗
I had no idea the TCG went so hard. I've been visiting random DB fan pages on social media and looking at the comments, I need to look at the TCG community
RIP The legend Toriyama 🕊❤️
Burst Limit was my introduction to Dragon Ball
its the reason i love Dragon Ball and just anime in general
so
1. Burst Limit
2. Raging Blast 2
3. BT3
4. DBZK
5.DBXV2 or DBFZ
Toriyama-sensei hurt particularly hard.
Rest easy, you absolute legend 😔
Lets not forget the video games kept the franchise alive for more than a decade 🌞
Thank you Akira Toriyama
