Dragon Ball Z: Buyuu Retsuden
System(s): Sega Mega Drive
Publisher: Bandai, Ecofilmes (PT)
Developer:
Genre: Action

















Release Date RRP Code

Dragon Ball Z: Buyuu Retsuden (ドラゴンボールＺ 武勇列伝) is a 1994 fighting game by Bandai for the Sega Mega Drive made with the Dragon Ball Z license released exclusively in Japan — and also France and Spain, due to the great popularity of the Dragon Ball Z anime in these European countries. The French/Spanish version was renamed Dragon Ball Z: L'Appel du Destin and has the game translated to French language and the instruction booklet in French and Spanish languages.

The game was also distributed in Portugal in 1996 where it is simply called Dragon Ball Z. The distributor, Ecofilmes, would take Japanese copies of the game, replace the cover and the manual with Portuguese translated equivalents (but keep the Japanese cart), and sell the game as is, promising a free converter cart as the Japanese cartridges cannot fit into European Mega Drives. Some time after, they released a second version and switched to use the French version cartridge. Both versions are now very rare.

The game is a typical fighting game. A punches, B kicks, Up jumps, and various combination moves can be done by holding the various controller buttons together. The C button is used to switch between staying on land and flying in the sky.

An unique feature in this game is that both characters will always be on-screen simultaneously — leading to the game doing vertical split-screen with scrolling, rotating split screen, and various other neat tricks the Mega Drive was not known for doing (accomplished using various tricks with VDP layer management). This feature is in fact required by some of the strongest moves (which require both players to be far away from each other).
