I'll let others edit the article accordingly. Masterotenko (talk) 03:05, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] US release

Is a US release possible? --ÄtΘmicR€£igionesїgñ

Probably, but I don't think the chances are high. What would they do? Cross-language servers like FFXI has? I doubt it. --Zeno McDohl (talk) 23:19, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Not as hard as you might think. Take Guild Wars and World of Warcraft, for instance. The upside with Dragon Ball Online is that it has many, many Dragon Ball fans around the world already. Established fanbase = not releasing being a stupid idea. It's still too far to see, but I believe the chances of a U.S. rel they likely will). Some games require a billing adress ican't be billed, period. So if the Korean game limits billing to Asia you're basicly screwed.

I'm pretty sure they wouldn't port it to 360 if it wasn't in english. —The preceding comment is by 206.202.96.27 (talk • contribs) 206.202.96.27: Please sign your posts!

The worldwide Dragonball Fanbase is too large to ignore, with games such as the "Sparking" series doing well in games charts not only in Japan, but America and the Europe also it would be a very unprofitable and ill judged idea not to release an English language version at somepoint, but when that will happen is anyone's guess. --JinecouO.N.E 13:12, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

Its coming out for the xbox 360, confirmed by the teaser trailer —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rdollaz23 (talk • contribs) 21:58, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Can you link us to the trailer? --Zeno McDohl (talk) 23:50, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

There is not going to be any Xbox360 version 195.194.68.22 (talk) 10:22, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

  It has been confirmed that the game will be released on both the XBox 360 and PC.

will it come out in europe?? Quite frankly, I see NO reason as to why it will not be released in the US. It isn't that hard to bring up some translators and translate the entire thing. Might cost a bit more money if they want it to be good translation, and not crappy like the large amount of free MMOs coming out of Korea. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.164.15.82 (talk) 05:31, 7 March 2008 (UTC) It's not unlikely that it will be released worldwide off franchise poularity alone, with chances going up depending on the sucess of the game in Japan and Korea. Nexon has used that business model for years. But I think now would be a good time for us to remind ourselves that wikipedia is not a crystal ball.24.181.243.83 (talk) 01:10, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Is it going to be the official follow up to DBZ?

I think clarifying this subject would be a nice treatment for this article, and that would look like a job for the Japanese- speaking Wikipedians. Not to mention, it would finally shut all of those DBAF fanboys up. And the ones who argue about DBGT. Jeez, that's a very brief description about the Web DB war.--Kim Kusanagi 05:19, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

There isn't much information about the storyline yet, but it seems it's purposely set in the far future so that it doesn't have to address whether DBGT took place or not. Kariteh 08:24, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wii and Ps3?

Someone put that the game was confirmed for the Wii and Ps3? Is this fake or true? I'm pretty sure its fake since they never put no source.

[edit] Japanese incorrect...

Hello, I was contacted via PM about an edit I made earlier today to the article; basically the kana next to the words Dragon Ball Online say 'I like big breasts as well as stiff vagina' and the kana by Time Patrol Trunks reads something equivalent to 'All your base are belong to us' in Japanese. I simply assumed that these were not relevant to the article, but I apologise for failing to mention the nature of the edit when I made it. Ashiyura 14:12, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

I noticed that myself and fixed it again.Kendamu 16:05, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Beta

It states that the beta was tested in the summer, any developments on that? Atomic Religione 18:28, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Not that I've seen. Then again, it was in Korea. I can't read/write that. --Zeno McDohl (talk) 22:52, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Release Date

how is saying "Summer 2007 (Beta)" going to help us?--Blue-EyesGold Dragon 10:21, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Removed Sentence

I removed this sentence from the article:

Due to the high level of supervision from Akira Toriyama, as well as the involvement of Bird Studio and Shueisha, DBO may actually be considered the true, canon continuation of the Dragon Ball manga.

This sounds more like someone's opinion. MastaFighta (talk) 13:49, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Well, we know it has no correlation to the anime, and is being developed as a direct follow-up to the original Dragon Ball manga. Toei Animation also has absolutely no involvemenet. A recent Game Watch article also makes several comments such as, "delve into the world of the manga", and "set about 250 years after the Dragon Ball manga", even going so far as to pointing out that it shows the manga-style sound effects during combat.
Technically speaking, I believe this is the only follow up to the Dragon Ball manga, with the possible exception of some of Toriyama's gag-manga. It would seem that, any way you slice it, on one hand, you've got Dragon Ball (anime) -> Dragon Ball Z -> Dragon Ball GT, while on the other you have, Dragon Ball (manga) -> Dragon Ball Online.

[edit] PROOF THAT U CAN GO SSJ

look at the end of my vid [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEwnsbTMsnk&feature=user]here[/url]--SpartanG007 (talk) 11:22, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
