Dragon Ball: Revenge of King Piccolo (2009)

I have to thank this game for showing me just how bad games can be. It's a pretty bare bones beat em up with little complexity or depth. Combos don't always connect for some reason, there aren't a lot of options in combat or movement, platforming is tedious, looking for treasures is pretty difficult with few indicators of where they could be located, sometimes you're forced to use a non-power pole moveset even when Goku is wearing it on his back, it feels like they ran out of budget half way through because of the shift from levels to boss battles exclusively, the game doesn't show what the criteria for a S rank is which can lead to replaying the same levels several times, I have no idea what the criteria for unlocking shop items is, and flicking the control stick back and forth (it's probably worse if I'm playing with a wiimote) is not really a fun mechanic and they keep forcing me to do it for every boss. I'm pretty frustrated I'm not going to 100% the game despite all of the effort I put into getting a S rank in all of the levels. I'm glad the multiplayer exists, but I can't see this being anything more than a distraction instead of something I look forward to playing with friends. The game really should have kept the Japanese title because the localized title is very misleading.
