I played this game back in the play-station 1 days on pc emulator and was blown away by how good this was in all aspects for a snes game, and yeh your right if it was turbo would of been perfect probs one of the best games out on snes
I hated this game, it sucked so bad. The fighting is very slow paced and the music was crap. The only thing they did right was the graphics and detail. This is by far the best looking DBZ game on the SNES. But compared to its previous games in the series, this one is too slow for my liking.
@Xienis your taste in music is obviously lacking and i find it hillarious that your even watching a video of a game you hate. that pretty much explains what you do in your free time.
@matics28 So I'm not allowed to have an opinion now? I voiced my personal opinion... we clearly have different tastes and thats fine, I respect that fact you like this game and I will defend to the death your right to disagree with me^^ But to me... Hyper Dimension was a step back on gameplay and a step forward on graphics.
And yes I do stupid things during my free time;) If we are all a little friendlier, the internet would be a much happier place friend, please dont insult me.
I'm indifferent. The coolest thing about butouden was that you could fly and launch big ultimate attacks. We've got that in Raging Blast. What I want is a cinematic DBZ game.
And I know it's not the only game, but it's the closest in anime representation. BL and the Budokai series aren't as simulative to DBZ as BT3 and RB. They're more like SF, and that's boring side by side, ground combat. BT3 is worse than RB2 of course, so RB2 is the best DBZ game out yet, in terms of representation and quality. Besides, RB2 is the newest DBZ game anyway.
the animations in this game, how the characters are standing/posing and performing their attacks would even be good for nowadays standards imo.
If they could get rid of the slow speed of the game mainly in the energy waves/balls, add some new feature to the flying aspect (which was kinda crappy) and add a beam struggle or so would make for some super remake.
Super sauce on top of it with 2 or so new chars and ftw xD.
looks very good for an SNES game, surprisingly it looks better the DBZ shin butouden on the Saturn, which shows what a lack of effort they put into shin butouden.
as a "SF-person", i consider it the 2nd best dbz game ever, and i totally hate bandai because with the current technology of the 2 portables like nice sprite resolution, processing power (avoid the lag), and 3D potential (fully realized in the case of PSP) for the stages and blasts sfx, audio capacity (for kageyama vocals) and video capacity for anime FMVs (for a story mode), they could make an amazing sequel
I think they should just repackage the engine, with a more favorable hit detection, and repair the broken infinites, and not necessarily market it as a sequel.
I remember a long time ago, when i was making a game for RPG maker using sprites from this game... it was fucking awesome. The main character had Mystic Gohan's sprite, and would eventually have Goku's sprite. I had made all these original combat animations using the sprites, damn that took a lot of time.
i believe the SNES wouldn't handdle it. just look at these graphics, they're very detailed for SNES, a fast gameplay like SF2Turbo would be too much. Plus the game got a decent speed already (not so decent for DBZ though)
I love how theres this slow paced battle with no one doing any damage to each other until the end when vegeta just uses a cheap ass attack to win. lol
i love this game. i still play it. i got this in 2002 and now i finally beat the story mode. and u to, that is my favourite music in this game, i never listen to anything else
I want a 3D remake of this game. Or at least a HD 2D version. No more of this cel-shaded crap. Not that cel-shading is bad, it just gives the developers the chance to be cheap with the graphics.
man this was 1 of the best dbz games considering all the games out there at that time
and if u played rite this seeming slow gameplay was actually pretty fast considering all the combos 1 could pull off if u took the time to learn each (or only the person u preferd) moves
as for the balance system honestly i played this so much with my bro that all the characters r pretty balanced itz just that it takes so long to learn what moves go into what frames and when 2 hit the button for the last hit
the weird ass counter system, characters that were unbalanced as hell, a story-mode that actually puts the mentioned unbalanced characters together (Vegeta VS cell is nearly impossible if cell goes into "lets spread energy from my body like a fucking madman-mode). Certain special moves lagged the hell out of the user.... need I go on?
So there's a bad match up and the game is unbalanced as hell? C'mon now, think about what kind of fighters were out at the time, I think it's pretty good that they have a good combo system with a cool counter system.
Dont get me wrong, I do understand it. But like with almost all DBZ games, this game was made just for the name of the series. This game lacked in speed by a horrendous amount (as you already pointed out), and while the juggle/combo system is indeed decent, the fighting itself just is a pain in the ass. Its only a recommendable fighter if you're a die-hard DBZ fan.
@ajazman This game is very deep man, you could compare it with fighters today. The only thing truly wrong with this game is the fact that it is almost prehistoric. You may not like this game, but I'm sure there are people like me, who think this is much better than all those newer (fun, but not as deep) DBZ games.
too bad they never remade it or something for DS/PSP. both could handle a lot of those multi-screen stages, more characters, bigger stages. It would be great if they make it.
awesome game but the fact that i live in germany means, that this game never came out here fpr SNES, so i had do buy an imported version but the game was worth of buying it because i played this for hours an beat up my big brother :D
do you guys think this game will come out on Vurtual Console on thw Wii, if so i'll buy it =D this game is cool, play it for a long time on mu emulator.
the polystation is one of those cheap game consoles that have like 585 games in them...they have games from sega to nintendo to other consoles and i rember playing this one
DragonBall Z Hyper Dimension is an excellent 2D fighting game. Much better fighting engine than Butoden. Also the SA-1 chip really aided in making the characters and graphics look much more how DragonBall Z should look.
how do you do the desperation attack can you say me please

This game has the best gameplay out of all DBZ games.
I said it once and I say it again:
This game is better than even Street Fighter.
Simpler controls, more beginner-friendly and yet it still kicks ass.
No professional, beginner-crushing bullcrap that Capcom always likes to implement.
(That and continuously disgracing their franchise with shitty, unfitting characters and stories).
DBZ HD is one of the best DBZ games. Hands down!
