The fighting game 000000000000000000000
F.A.Q. for the Sega Saturn
By Henry LaPierre 2nd edition
Dragonball Z for the Sega Saturn is a two dimensional fighting game that
allows the characters to travel great distances from each other by way of
a split screen. Like the Genesis and Super Nintendo versions of the
Dragonball games, the split screen allows each side to scroll
independently. There is also the ability to fight on two different
planes. By using the float/land button your character is able to jump up
into the sky and fight from a hovering position, or land and fight from
the ground. The screen will automatically split when the two characters
are on different planes from one another. The Saturn version is not semi
three dimensional like the Playstation, however each character has the
ability to knock their opponent, or move themselves into the background.
When this happens the screen's background will rotate 90 degrees. This
will cause a different background picture. Some backgrounds have upwards
of three sections that you can rotate four times each before seeing the
same background picture. That makes for some stages with twelve different
background pictures. You fight single round matches, but your character
can have upwards of three health bars worth of life. Your character also
has a power meter which you can charge up at any time during the match.
The power is used for the energy attacks in the game. The bigger the
attack, the more power you need to have. Because of the area in which you
can go in the matches, there is no time limit. There are twenty seven
different fighters to choose from in any of the versus modes, twenty two
in the one player game. The game uses five buttons in the default
setting, six if you put dash left and dash right on seperate buttons
(highly recomended). The X, Y, and Z buttons are used, but mainly just
for character selection (unless you change the default controller
setting). Now on to the F.A.Q.
New to this edition:
I fixed some typos, and added 15 previously undiscovered moves,
most of which were meteo attacks.
Dragonball Z Shin Butouden for the Sega Saturn
Turn the power to the Sega Saturn on with your Dragonball Z game in. An
animated intro will run, showing all twenty seven fighters. This
animation is actually a cropped version of the intro that runs on the
Playstation Dragonball Z Ultimate Battle 27 game. After the animation
runs the title screen will appear. Pushing start on the title screen
brings you to a selection screen. This selection screen has the following
choices:
battle mode..........regular type matches
tournament mode......8 players compete to find a champion
Mr. Satan mode.......bet on fights to get him out of debt
options..............change certain game settings
Start, A or C accepts a choice, B declines.
Options
Choosing options brings you to option board 1
This is the controller configuration screen. It looks like this:
player 1 player 2 player 1 player 2
?....punch...........? ?....dash w/pad......?
?....kick............? ?....dash right......?
?....energy attack...? ?....dash left.......?
?....float/land......? ?....back to default.?
To change the controller settings, highlight what you would like to
change and press the button that you would like it to be on. That
button's initial will then appear beside it on the corrosponding players
side. To advance to the next option board, highlight option #1 and press
right on the directional pad.
Option Board 2 is the settings board.
You can change the following:
difficulty.........easy, normal, severe, super (normal is default)
continues..........0-9
help commands......on/off (on is default)
music test.........0-38 different music samples
sound test.........0-967 different samples
background music...mono/stereo/off (mono is default)
meters and radar...on/off (on is default)
The Help Commands are diagrams of the moves for the two characters
currently battling. It is brought up by pausing the game. In a two player
match, one player hits start, which causes the word pause to flash on the
screen. If the other player accepts the pause by hitting start at this
time, the help commands will then appear.
Option Board 3
This is the controller test screen.
You can see if your controller is working properly. Whatever
direction, or button you press, is shown in a picture of the controller.
To exit the controller test board, hold start and press left or right
on controller one.
The Command Help Board
This board shows the name and diagrams for ten of each characters
moves or attacks. Push down to highlight the characters names, then left
or right to select a character. Down then cycles through the moves.
In case you don't know the characters by their japanese written names,
they appear on the command help screen in this order:

Choosing versus mode gives you the following choices:
1 player vs. computer...single battle with opponent you choose
1 player vs. 2 player...single 2 player battles
computer vs. computer...pick 2 fighters to watch battle
Group Battle mode
Each player picks 5 characters. Both players can pick the same
character, but cannot pick a character more than once. The
winner of each match goes on to fight the next opponent,
elimination style. The remaining life bar is extended by one half
of the energy left in your powerbar at the end of the match. That
is all the health that you have for the next match. The winning
team's portraits are shown over the match results at the end of
all the battles.
Choosing group battle mode gives you these choices:
1 player vs. 2 player...you and a friend pick 5 player teams
1 player vs. computer...choose both your team and the computers
Tournament Mode
1 to 8 players can compete in elimination matches. Each player chooses
their character with the A button. After all players have selected
their characters, hit the start button on both controllers. This
causes the computer to select and control any unused tournament slots.
After all 8 slots have been filled, you are brought to the tournament
options board.
Tournament Options Board
On this board you can change some of the tournament settings.
It is set up in a grid like this:
player 1 name player 3 name player 5 name player 7 name
life # life # life # life #
power # power # power # power #
player 2 name player 4 name player 6 name player 8 name
life # life # life # life #
power # power # power # power #
% of life gained back from the set to life & end, start
powerbar at the end of a match power default tournament
The X or Z buttons raise your life meter level, Y decreases it.
The A or C buttons raise your power meter level, B decreases it.
Controller 1 controls the settings for players 1, 3, 5, and 7.
Controller 2 controls the settings for players 2, 4, 6, and 8.
After the announcer is finished announcing the days matches, both current
players must hit the start button to begin the match.
The first round of battles is the elimination round. It consists of
four matches, the winners of which advance to the semi finals. The
losers games are over.
The second round of battles is the semi finals. It consists of two
matches, these winners go on to the final. The losers battle each
other for third place.
The third round is the losers of the semi finals battling for third
place.
The fourth round is the finals, the winners of the semi finals battle
each other for the top position. After this round ends, a picture of
the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners is shown over the credits, with
black and white pictures of the various matches shown randomly.
Mr. Satan Mode
Apparently Mr. Satan owes some money and he must bet on fights to
raise it. You play Mr. Satan. A group of six fighters are choosen at
random to battle one another, and you bet on the fights. But wait,
your Mr. Satan, YOU CAN CHEAT!!! There are four different options to
choose from to help you pick the winner:
pick the winner item
and place bet configure
describe the other
items you can use options
Pick the winner and place your bet:you are given 2 characters to pick
from, choose who you think will win. You start with 1,000 units of
money, but the object of this mode is to get to 10,000 so bet wisely.
You may bet a minimum of 10 and a maximum of 3,000. After selecting
your choice of fighters, it will display their starting life level,
starting power level, and attacking powers. After you place your bet
it's off to the match.
Item configure:this lets you place your items that are in use on the
various controller buttons as you'd like them.
Item descriptions:
Row 1 left to right:
banana peel.........makes character slip and fall over
gun.................damages character, but not much
mine................goes off when stepped on
offerings...........give these to character in meeting screen
Row 2 left to right:
red bottle..........increase characters health by 10
red jar.............increase characters power by 10
flashlight..........blinds all non blocking characters
offerings...........give these to character in meeting screen
Row 3 left to right:
blue bottle.........increase characters health by 30
blue jar............increase characters power by 30
dynamite............goes off after a short time
offerings...........give these to character in meeting screen
When asked to make a choice concerning the offerings, 1st is yes, 2nd
is no. You must buy the offerings. Press start to exit this screen.
Other options:
This brings you to 3 other options:
Give gifts to a fighter
Talk with fighter
Prey to the heavens
Giving gifts:choose 1 of the fighters you'd like to give the gift to.
Choose the gift you'd like to give. The gifts raise health, power
and strength. After choosing your gift you are taken to a spinning
wheel, this determines if the fighter will accept your offering.
The white highlighted word is no, and the yellow is yes. This will
be the same for all the options in this group.
Talk with a fighter:this lets you meet with one of the fighters and
see if they feel confident about the match going their way. You
spin the wheel to see their answer.
Prey to the heavens:this lets you pray to the heavens to let the
fighter you pick win. You spin the wheel to see if you were
successful.
These last two options have no real factor in the outcome of the match.
The object is to win 10,000 to pay off your debts. When the matches start
you are on the side of the ring. You can move left and right, and throw
things into the ring to sway the outcome of the match. But remember that
both characters can be damaged or powered up by what you toss into the
ring, so throw carefully.
Preparing for battle:
After choosing your desired mode of battle, you are brought to the
character select screen. Here the characters are divided into 3 groups:
Group X:bad guys Group Y:heroes Group Z:secondary characters
Zarbon Gokou Kulilin
Recoom Gohan Tenshinhan
Ginew Goten Artificial Human #18
Freeza Vegeta Artificial Human #16
Cell Young Trunks The Great Saiyaman
Dabura (devil) Trunks Kaioushin
Majin Buu Piccolo Diamoah Gotenks
Super Buu Super Gokou 3 Kamesennin
Mr. Satan Gogeta
Young Gokou
To choose simply hit the corrosponding button to the group that the
character you want is in. Then scroll up and down to select the character
you want (left and right go into the other groups), and press start, A,
or the C button to select. B takes back the choice, and the right button
does a random select.
After you've selected your character, you are brought to the Battle
Options Board. From this board you can change a few settings:
Battle Options Board

(11 different,? is random)
After you've selected your battle options, press start. A help command
list with ten of the moves for each of the two current fighters will
appear while the match is loading. A small animation also runs by the
bottom of the screen at this time. There are 3 different animations:
Mr. Satan lighting a fuse to a pile of dynamite.
Chi Chi chasing Goten.
Bubbles the monkey dancing by.
Controls during battle:
The float/land button causes your character to jump to the sky, or drop
to the ground, depending on where you are. The screen needs to be split
to do this with just the button. If you are within the same screen as
your opponent and press back on the directional pad while pressing the
float/land button you will go to the alternate level. If you are at an
alternate height from your opponent, press the directional pad forward
while pressing the float/land button to appear right in front of them.
If both characters are in the sky and on the same screen when you press
the float/land button, your character will fly into the background,
revolving the background screen 90 degrees. Holding back on the
directional pad while trying this will cause the your character to drop
to the ground.
If you are knocked off screen, you will jump back on and power up for a
second. You get no extra power in your meter for this, it's just your
character being mad. The opponent also cannot attack you at this time.
Falling into water takes off a small amount of power.
Each character has a move that will knock the opponent into the
background, causing the screen to rotate and the background view to change.
Blocking is done by holding straight back to block high to mid range
attacks, and down/back to block low attacks.
To throw, hold forwards on the directional pad and press the punch button.
To land from a throw, do one of the following motions as soon as your
opponent grabs you to throw you. Rapidly tap the directional pad towards
your opponent to land safely from the throw. Rapidly tap the directional
pad away from your opponent to turn in the air and come diving back down
at your opponent. You can attack while this is happening.
Grappling occurs when 2 characters dash into one another. They lock hands
in a grapple and flare up with energy. To try and break your opponents
grapple, rapidly tap back on the directional pad. To try and throw your
opponent out of the grapple, rapidly tap the punch button.
Getting back up after being knocked down. You can still take damage from
hits while you are on the ground, so get up as fast as possible. To do so
you have these options:
Before you even hit the ground, tap punch or kick twice, to flip to
your feet, without falling to the ground.
While on the ground:
Rapidly tap up, to flip up.
Rapidly tap back, to flip back.
Rapidly tap down, to stand back up.
Rapidly tap forward, to do a flip kick towards your opponent.
Press punch and kick together to charge up your characters power meter.
Your character will flare with energy. Static electricity will sparkle
around your character when they are fully charged.
When dizzy from expending too much power, rotate the directional pad in
circles rapidly. this causes your power to come back quicker.
You can knock your opponent dizzy with multiple attacks.
Most meteo attacks must be performed from throwing range. Some characters
will not do their meteos against certain other characters.
If you get a perfect victory, your character will do an alternate winning
pose.
After a battle you are given 3 choices:
next battle (same mode, choose characters again)
rematch (same mode, same characters, straight to match)
end (back to the title screen)
Codes and such
Hold A, B, and C, while pressing start:this resets the game
Turbo Speed
Hold the left button on controller 1 during the title or selection
screen, and press X for slow (dark background), Y for medium (regular
background, default), and Z for fast (normal background). For hyper
fast hold the left and right buttons on controller 2, on the same
screens, and press the Z button (also on controller 2, sunset background)
There is undoubtably a code for making Gokou 3, Gogeta, Kamesennin, Mr.
Satan, and Young Gokou playablein a one player story mode. Unfortunately,
I don't have it.
Descriptions of the backgrounds
There are 13 different backgrounds. All but the jaguar dome is made up of
sections(only Mr. Satan mode happens here). A section has 4 different
background angle pictures to it. You can get to the other sections within
a background, by knocking your opponent there or flying there by the sky.
The backgrounds are as follows:
#1 the road the artificial Humans #'s 16, 17, and 18 were fought on.
This has 3 sections, 1 on top of 2.
#2 surface of the planet Namek. There are pools of water that you can
be knocked into. This has 3 sections, 1 on top of 2.
#3 the desert where Majin Buu was released. This has only 1 section.
#4 Cell's tournament grid. Very small, also has only 1 section.
#5 the room of spirit and time. This has 1 large rectangular section.
#6 Majin Buu's house. This background has 3 sections in a row.
#7 city street. This has 3 sections, 1 on top of 2.
#8 inside Babi-Di's spaceship. This has 1 large section.
#9 desert with craters, inside Babi-Di's spaceship. You can smash your
opponent through the craters, or jump on them, hide behind them,
or just destroy them with a giant fireball attack. A character
standing behind a crater during a giant fireball attack of any
kind, will not be hit. The crater will absorb the blast and explode.
This background has 3 sections in a row.
#10 under a large tree in the rain. This has 2 sections in a row.
#11 above the ocean in front of Kamesennin's house. On this background
every time you get knocked down, you fall into the ocean. This has
3 sections in a row.
#12 Tenkai-ichi Budoukai. This is the tournament arena.(tournament
mode only) It has 1 large block. There are lots of secondary
characters in the stands.
#13 Jaguar Dome. Side view only.(Mr. Satan mode only) There are tons
of minor Dragonball characters in the bleachers.

kind are possible when the exchange is in effect. The effect drains your
powerbar slowly and the characters will swap back when the bar is empty.
you can keep charging up, to keep the exchange going longer.

*Mr. Satan cannot levitate into the sky, he will just jump if you try.
He is also not capable of energy attacks, so instead of fireballs, he
swings a bat. Since he can't do energy attacks, there is no need to
charge him up, trying to will result in him getting dizzy. He cannot
catch, send back, or warp away from the giant energy attacks. However if
the motion is performed correctly, he will do something else to avoid
being damaged by the attacks.

Giant Energy Attacks
Also called giant fireballs. There are two kinds of giant energy attacks,
long range, and close range.
Long range energy attacks:
To perform a long range energy attack, you must do your characters motion
when the screen is split by a black line only. Your opponent will take
the maximum damage from the attack if hit from long range. When a long
range energy attack is fired, the screen will show the character doing
the attack on one side of the split screen, but the other side will turn
into a close up picture of the opponent's face. First they will look
surprised, then they will smile or grin. Next the screen will pan to show
them either performing a defensive manuever against the attack, or being
hit by it.
Defending yourself against the long range energy attacks:
To stop the damage from the attack, you must perform one of the following
motions while your character's portrait looks shocked. If they grin
before you've finished the motion, it's too late, you will be hit!
down to back to forward+C......this fires the attack back at your
opponent.
down/back to up/forward to down/back+C......this warps you to the
alternate level. (the instructions booklet was wrong on this one)
up, then down to forward+C......this puts an energy shield up around
your character.
back to forward+C......this catches the attack. Rapidly press the
energy attack button (C) after catching it, to deflect it away.
Note:all of these defensive actions, except for the warp, require you
to have at least a small amount of energy in your powerbar, in
order to perform them.
Close range giant energy attacks:
To perform one of these, you must be at a distance of, red lined split
screen or less. You can be right next to your opponent also. Perform
your character's correct attack motion and out it comes. Unlike the long
range attacks, the screen doesn't pan or change when close. Because of
this, to defend yourself, you'd do regular blocks, or jump over or up to
the sky to avoid them. You can also attack your opponent while their in
the attack stance and knock them out of it. One thing about the close
range attacks is the ability to charge up the energy, so that it does
more damage if it hits. To do this, instead of tapping the energy (C)
button, hold it. Your character will not fire until you release the
button, and all the while your holding it, they are building up more
power. After a few seconds your character will sparkle and crackle with
static electricity, this means they have reached their maximum power
level for the attack. Let go of the button and fire away.
Well I think that about wraps it up for this game, Let me know if I've
missed anything and I'll try and squeeze it in. I hope you liked
reading this, it's pretty much my first attempt at F.A.Q writing. I
apologize if I ran on too long, but I wanted everything to be very
clear, as the instructions are in Japanese.

I'd like to thank a few people who sent me an E mail:
Rishard Chapoteau, for sending me the speed code.
Greg Miller, for also sending me the speed code.
El pesao, for the Gotenks meteos
Michael Nguyen, for alerting me to the fact that Young Trunks and Gohan
had another meteo.
and Edward Benson for asking questions and being a generally good guy.
Special thanks go out to Steve Feldman for being such a goof :)
Scott Deyesso for being player 2 through all my annoying
"wait a minute, I want to try something" 's
and Kaiya
Once again, this F.A.Q. was written by Henry LaPierre. If you have any
questions send them to me at freeza@ix.netcom.com I'll try to answer
them. This F.A.Q. may also be available through FTP at Andy Eddy's
