'''Story Mode''' |
||
In this game mode, the player selects one of sixteen different stories to follow a core narrative - there are three Z-Stories which roughly follow the canon of the DBZ Manga and Anime across the Namek, Android and Majin Sagas from numerous characters, and thirteen Character Stories for each of the thirteen playable characters, many of which show alternate 'What If' outcomes to the DBZ story. In each story the player fights through a series of six to eight opponents, which follow the original Dragon Ball Z anime storyline in the chosen characters’ perspective. The story mode is presented through short scenes; where long texts associated with pictures and scenery are involved.<ref name="IGNRev"/> Once a scene is done, the player must fight an opponent, continue with the scene, and fight again against computer AI, where the next opponent is slightly more difficult than the previous.<ref name="IGNRev"/> As the storyline progresses, the character gains new abilities that enhance the players’ gameplay experience, allowing for more strategic battle combinations.<ref name="IGNRev"/> Once the story is completed, the player will gain points that they can spend in the options mode to unlock new characters in order to engage in the storyline from another characters perspective, battling different opponents.<ref name="IGNRev"/> If the player is able to defeat all opponents without dying once in a story, a certain number of stories give players a bonus fight, extending the storyline as a special reward. |
|||
Neste modo de jogo, o jogador seleciona uma de dezesseis histórias diferentes para seguir de acordo com a narrativa - dessas existem três Histórias-Z que seguem aproximadamente o cânone do [[mangá]] e [[anime]] de [[Dragon Ball Z|DBZ]] com diversos personagens que giram ao redor das sagas de Namek, Androides e Majin, e treze modos de história para cada um dos treze personagens jogáveis, alguns com histórias alternativas baseadas no conceito do 'E se' a respeito da história de [[Dragon Ball Z|DBZ]]. Em cada história o jogador luta contra uma série de seis a oito oponentes, que seguem o enredo original do [[anime]] de [[Dragon Ball Z]] na perspectiva do personagem escolhido. O modo história é apresentado por meio de histórias curtas em formato de texto, utilizando imagens dos personagens e cenários envolvidos (Algo semelhante a uma [[Visual Novel]], porém sem a possibilidade de escolhas).<ref name="IGNRev"/> Quando a cena acaba o jogador devera lutar contra seu oponente, continuar com a cena, e lutar novamente contra a [[Inteligência artificial|IA]] do jogo, onde o próximo oponente é um pouco mais forte e difícil do que o anterior.<ref name="IGNRev"/> Enquanto a história avançada, o personagem ganha novas habilidades que melhoram a experiência do jogador, permitindo estratégias de batalha mais avançadas.<ref name="IGNRev"/>Quando a história é completada, o jogador ganha pontos que podem ser consumidos no modo de opções para desbloquear novos personagens com o intuito de jogar seus respectivos modo história, batalhando com diferentes oponentes.<ref name="IGNRev"/>Se o jogador conseguir derrotar todos os personagens sem ser derrotado nenhuma vez, algumas histórias darão ao jogador uma luta bónus, estendendo a história e servindo como uma recompensa especial para o jogador. |
|||
''' |
'''Challenge Mode''' |
||
The player selects three characters to form a team and must battle against pre-set enemy teams that are generated by the computer AI.<ref name="IGNRev"/> Character selection cannot exceed level four, and in order to defeat the enemy team, the player must fully utilize their three chosen characters’ abilities.<ref name="IGNRev"/> Only after defeating the first enemy team, the player can unlock new teams to fight against until the mode is completed.<ref name="IGNRev"/> Defeating the challenge mode grants the greatest number of points that can be spent in the options menu, allowing for a wider variety of character combinations for teams.<ref name="IGNRev"/> |
|||
''' |
'''Z Battle Mode''' |
||
In Z battle mode the player chooses a character, and must battle against 8 enemies, however after completing a round of Z battle mode, the chosen character is given a ranking.<ref name="IGNRev"/> As the player defeats more opponents with a single character, the ranking of that character will increase and various statistics are given, allowing players to continuously build on various characters to complete their full ranking. All rankings and statistics are viewed in the options mode under the rankings tab.<ref name="IGNRev"/> |
|||
No Modo de Batalhas-Z o jogador escolhe um personagem, e luta contra 8 inimigos, e então, apôs terminar as todos os 8 combates, o personagem escolhido ganha uma posição no Ranking do jogo.<ref name="IGNRev"/> A medida que o jogador derrotar mais oponentes com um único personagem, o Ranking daquela personagem irá crescer e várias estatísticas serão fornecidas, incentivando o jogador a continuar jogando com vários personagens para completar o Ranking de todos os eles. Todos os Rankings e estatísticas podem ser vistos no Modo de Opções na aba de Rankings.<ref name="IGNRev"/> |
|||

{{nihongo|'''''Dragon Ball Z: Supersonic Warriors 2'''''|ドラゴンボールZ 舞空烈戦|Doragon Bōru Zetto Bukū Ressen}} is the second and final game in the series. It was published by [[Atari]] and released in 2005 for the [[Nintendo DS]]. Featuring an expanded roster, the game saw the return of all thirteen characters from the first game alongside two new additional characters from the ''Dragon Ball Z'' movies - [[Cooler (Dragon Ball)|Cooler]] and [[Broly]]. It also saw a selection of support characters which could be unlocked to provide assistance in battle via special moves or a revival option. The returning Story Mode introduced a branching path system where battles would be unlocked if certain conditions are met. These alternate outcomes would lead to special "What If" storylines. |

Supersonic Warriors pits either two players or two teams composed of up to three characters from the Dragon Ball franchise against each other in large environments. The player can use strong and weak variations of close combat attacks, and charge their ki to fire strong and weak energy blasts. Each character also has three unique "Certain Kill" abilities that deal heavy damage to the opponent. The Certain Kill ability varies depending on where the player is located - above, below or horizontal to the opponent.
Games
Supersonic Warriors
Dragon Ball Z: Supersonic Warriors (ドラゴンボールZ 舞空闘劇, Doragon Bōru Zetto Bukū Tôgeki) is the first game in the Supersonic Warriors series and the ninth Dragon Ball game released for Nintendo handheld devices overall (preceded by Dragon Ball Z: Taiketsu and followed by Dragon Ball Z: Buu’s Fury.[1] It was developed by Arc System Works and Cavia for Banpresto and released for the Game Boy Advance on June 22, 2004. The game offers a variety of modes that the player can choose from, and when completed, can earn points to unlock various characters and missions.[2]

Story Mode
In this game mode, the player selects one of sixteen different stories to follow a core narrative - there are three Z-Stories which roughly follow the canon of the DBZ Manga and Anime across the Namek, Android and Majin Sagas from numerous characters, and thirteen Character Stories for each of the thirteen playable characters, many of which show alternate 'What If' outcomes to the DBZ story. In each story the player fights through a series of six to eight opponents, which follow the original Dragon Ball Z anime storyline in the chosen characters’ perspective. The story mode is presented through short scenes; where long texts associated with pictures and scenery are involved.[2] Once a scene is done, the player must fight an opponent, continue with the scene, and fight again against computer AI, where the next opponent is slightly more difficult than the previous.[2] As the storyline progresses, the character gains new abilities that enhance the players’ gameplay experience, allowing for more strategic battle combinations.[2] Once the story is completed, the player will gain points that they can spend in the options mode to unlock new characters in order to engage in the storyline from another characters perspective, battling different opponents.[2] If the player is able to defeat all opponents without dying once in a story, a certain number of stories give players a bonus fight, extending the storyline as a special reward.
Challenge Mode
The player selects three characters to form a team and must battle against pre-set enemy teams that are generated by the computer AI.[2] Character selection cannot exceed level four, and in order to defeat the enemy team, the player must fully utilize their three chosen characters’ abilities.[2] Only after defeating the first enemy team, the player can unlock new teams to fight against until the mode is completed.[2] Defeating the challenge mode grants the greatest number of points that can be spent in the options menu, allowing for a wider variety of character combinations for teams.[2]
Z Battle Mode
In Z battle mode the player chooses a character, and must battle against 8 enemies, however after completing a round of Z battle mode, the chosen character is given a ranking.[2] As the player defeats more opponents with a single character, the ranking of that character will increase and various statistics are given, allowing players to continuously build on various characters to complete their full ranking. All rankings and statistics are viewed in the options mode under the rankings tab.[2]
Free Battle Mode
Free battle mode unchains all restrictions that are placed from the other modes, allowing for a free range of battles for any combination of enemies. The player can choose from any character that is available or unlocked, and there are no limits to the levels corresponding to the characters.[2] The mode engages in either a 1on1 or team style of fighting, where the player can choose their own enemies to fight or a random enemy through the random generator.[2]
Link Vs. Mode
Within this game mode, the player leaves the domain of computer AI battles in order to battle against another human player.[1] This game mode can offer a range of battle combinations, movement, and reactions that cannot be executed by the computer AI enemies. Two Game Boy Advances, a link cable are required to play in this mode in order to connect the two players together.[3]
Supersonic Warriors 2
Dragon Ball Z: Supersonic Warriors 2 (ドラゴンボールZ 舞空烈戦, Doragon Bōru Zetto Bukū Ressen) is the second and final game in the series. It was published by Atari and released in 2005 for the Nintendo DS. Featuring an expanded roster, the game saw the return of all thirteen characters from the first game alongside two new additional characters from the Dragon Ball Z movies - Cooler and Broly. It also saw a selection of support characters which could be unlocked to provide assistance in battle via special moves or a revival option. The returning Story Mode introduced a branching path system where battles would be unlocked if certain conditions are met. These alternate outcomes would lead to special "What If" storylines.
