Dragon Ball Z V.R.V.S. is a third-person fighting game based on the Dragon Ball Z franchise, and was released for Sega System 32 arcade hardware exclusively in Japan. The cabinet features motion sensors, meaning it can be played by physically punching and kicking in a similar manner to the Sega Activator.
Although the game uses 2D sprites, it uses third-person, over-the-shoulder camera angles positioned behind the characters along with sprite scaling to create a 3D-like experience. The game is controlled with a joysick and 3 buttons, while a deluxe edition of the game features motion sensors that allow the player to move his or her body to control the character in the game.
The technology used was similar to that of the Sega Activator peripheral for the Mega Drive console, but with extra sensors to pull off better reaction sensing. This was thus the first successful example of full-body motion sensing in a video game.
