Super
Buu's absorption technique: Get over 10,000 Kili on Babidi's Ship.
Control
opening screen: Rotate the Right Analog-stick to spin Master Roshi. Press
the Left Analog-stick to change his position on the screen.
When the loading screen appears
and you see Master Roshi on a hover disc, quickly rotate the Right
Analog-stick to control the speed and the Left Analog-stick to
control the movement.
When you see Master Roshi
spinning in the opening/loading screen, you can press R1, R2, L1,
L2 instead to spin him You can still control him with the Left
Analog-stick. Note: This does not work when you perform a special move
such as Continuous Kamehameha.
Use the following trick to make
Master Roshi fly. Note: It requires a controller with an auto-fire features.
Set the auto-fire to L1 + L2 + R1 + R2 and use
it to make Master Roshi spin fast enough to fly. You can also move him
around with the Left Analog-stick.
To make Master Roshi fly,
rotate the Right Analog-stick with your palm very quickly. If you are
fast enough, you can also use R1, R2, L1, L2.
Slow down the spinning to make him hover.
Alternate
costumes: When fighting in training or duel modes, you can change your
character's costume by pressing Square so that you will turn to the
question mark. Then, press X to choose a character. They will have
different costumes. For example, Piccolo will look like Nail and Gohan will
fight in his father's costume.
To change costumes, go to the
character and press Up or Down. You will be able to select a
different costumes. Some characters may have three choices but most have
only two.
Alternate
stage: When you go into the arena selection screen and have highlighted
the stage you want to fight at, press Triangle. The stage will be
selected, and you will go to a different arena. Red Ribbon Base is the only
arena that is actually in a different area. All the other stages, except for
Planet Namek, the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, and the Kai's planet (the one
with the sword stuck in the hill) are a different time of day (either dusk
or night, depending on the stage).
Hint:
Easy transformation: Instead of having to press the P + K + G,
press R1 + R2 to transform. This works with all characters who
transform in any way. This can be very useful if you want to knock the guard
off your opponent while standing next to them.
Go to options menu and set one
of the shoulder buttons(L1, L2, R1, R2) to P
+ K + G. By doing this, you only have to press one button.
Hint:
Easier Fusion (Gotenks), Spirit Ball Attack (Yamcha), and Burning Slash
(Trunks): When doing the three attacks mentioned, pause game play when the
button combo is halfway up the screen. Normally you cannot pause game play
when it is totally on the screen. Memorize the button combo, then press Start
again and execute it.
Hint:
Easy capsules: Select the Capsule Skill Shop by pressing X. You will
usually see Bulma in the lower right side usually. When there, hold R1
+ R2 + L1. This will sometimes cause the selector to highlight
a capsule, but it does not matter if it does not. While still holding R1
+ R2 + L1, press Triangle(2) to exit the Capsule Select
window. This will randomly give you one free capsule. That means that it can
still give you one that you already have, so you must repeat the trick a few
more times to get a new capsule. If your percentage is very low, like in the
single digits to the teens, you should see a change in the percentage
immediately. If it is over 50%, it probably will not change the first time
you do the trick. Thus, you must do it a few more times. This trick will
give you breakthroughs, stages, moves, new outfits for bulma, etc.
Note: You must go to "Edit
Capsules" and edit any one of your characters before going to the main
menu, or you will have to start where you last saved.
Use the following trick to get
easy double capsules. Go to the skill store and look for the capsule that
you want two of. Buy it (even if it does not say "New"). Then, if
you did not have it before you must leave and buy it again. Put it on your
character twice. Note: This only works for red and blue capsules. It does
not work for green or black capsules.
Go to the Skill Shop (Bulma's
Shop). If you cannot find your capsule there, go back and go to the shop
again. Keep doing this until you find what you need.
Hint:
Get all Breakthrough Capsules: To get all Breakthrough Capsules, complete Advanced Tournament
with a good character (to get all the good side breakthroughs), then
complete it with an evil character to get theirs. Note: You may have to
complete every tournament level with a good and an evil character.
Hint:
Golden Capsule on level 1: On the first level, where you have to get to the Dragonball
before Raditz and Nappa, defeat all the Saibamen that pop up until a red one
appears. Fight that one and win. You should get a new capsule for Hercule.
Equip the capsule, and whenever Hercule's health drops below one sixth he
will now receive a boost of energy. This may require a few attempts.
Hint:
Easy money: On the last level where you fight Kid Buu, when you start dig
(press Square) until a question mark appears over your head. Note:
You can use any character.
Dig around in the final stage
of Dragonworld. Have Sparking!-!!! as your custom character. You will gain
twice as much as usual from just having one of them.
In Babidi's Spaceship. go to
stage 1 and select Dr. Gero. Put on the Life Drain skill and Perpetual
Energy. Also, set Life Drain twice then put on a guard or attack power-up.
Keep using Life Drain. If you charge it all the way, you should kill your
opponent instantly. You will not lose any health. Go against someone large
and slow, such as Nappa or Android 16, so that you can hit them easier. You
can easily kill them 50 to 100 times, getting between 1000 to 2000 Killi.
Hint:
Silver Card: Buy all red capsules that you can get at the beginning.
Alternately, have a saved game from the original Dragon Ball Z: Budokai
on your memory card.
Hint:
Gold Card: Buy all the red capsules that you can get with the Silver Card.
Hint:
Black Card: Buy all the red capsules that you can get with the Gold Card.
Hint:
Kibitoshin: In Dragon World, do not take the Potara Earrings from the Supreme
Kai to fuse into Vegito. Complete the game without taking them.
Hint:
Bulma's costume: To get Bulma's costumes, get all the Dragon Balls. Then, summon
the dragon. If you are lucky, you can get Bulma's costumes. Bulma's costume
will change the way that Bulma appears in the capsule shop.
Hint:
Make Bulma move in the shop: Press R2 and she will move.
Hint:
Restore health during fight: Note: This trick requires two players and Babidi's Spaceship.
First, go to Babidi's Spaceship. When asked how many players are playing,
select "2P". One of the mini-games involves locking your Ki and
Health together. Select that game. You can now recharge your health during a
fight. Note: Since this trick locks your Ki and Health together, you can now
lose health by using any Ki-draining special attack.
Hint:
Wishes: When you get all seven Dragonballs you get one wish. Do not buy
Bulma's costumes. Instead, you should buy Breakthrough, Fusion, and Potera
capsules. Breakthrough capsules take all seven slots but give every move for
that person. Others allow secret fusions between people.
Use the following trick to get
all the wishes. At the very end when you must defeat Kid Buu you will get
one wish after the credits by obtaining all seven Dragon Balls. Before you
defea Kid Buu, save the game and exit. Then, copy the saved game file for
the game onto another memory card. Start the game again and defeat Kid Buu
(again) and get another wish. When done, copy or transfer the capsule that
you obtained.
Hint:
Picking up a Dragon Ball: To pick up a Dragon Ball after it is in the center of the Dragon
Ball Radar, just select the character that is on top of the Dragon Ball and
press Square.
Hint:
Babidi's Spaceship: Easy wins: To win and get some skills from Babidi's spaceship, try the
following:
Put a Senzu Bean on a custom
character. Include the best armor they have. Then, go to Babidi's
Spaceship on level 2. Select the custom character, then guard and dodge
the attacks. When you die, the Senzu Bean will be used and you will have
full health. Then, guard and dodge. You will easily win Kili by doing
this, and collect the Majin Buu capsules, Dabura, Skills, etc.
Put a Senzu Bean on a custom
character. Also use Gero's Perpetual Energy and a favorite death move. Go
to level 1 on Babidi's Spaceship and keep doing the death move. Be careful
not to lose any health. When you die, the Senzu Bean will be used and you
will be resurrected. Then, continue to fight and do the death move
repeatedly. If they start to dodge, then try fighting them.
Use Yamcha on level 3. Make
sure he has Wolf Fang Fist. Keep doing Wolf Fang Fist and they will easily
get hit by you if you activate the move and keep pressing E. This
should get you a lot of Kili.
Use this in the stage where
you fight enemies until you die. Attach Dr. Gero's Perpetual Energy
Capsule to any character with a strong energy attack, such as Trunks or
Kid Buu. You can keep pressing the button for the attack repeatedly
without losing any Ki. However, you cannot transform during the battle.
This also works well with a Senzu Bean.
Go to level 2 and pick a
character, then edit skills. If you have it, get Mysterious Vest. If not,
use another guard power-up. Next, pick Senzu Bean. If you put on
Mysterious Vest you should not have any more room. Then, start the fight.
When you lose your first bar, your character will use Senzu Bean and
recharge to full health in the green. Note: Do not use your capsule space
for attacks, this is endurance.
Note: This trick requires a
controller with an auto-fire feature. Go to the game where you have to
deflect the Ki blast back and forth. Before the round starts, take one
jump back, set X to auto-fire, then shoot and hold X. This
should give you 193 hits in the round and result in about 600 Kili.
Use Vegeta with Final
Explosion and keep doing it as long as possible. Note: You must be very
good at doing Final Explosion; if you do not get it to a full bar the
level is over.
Hint:
Babidi's Spaceship: Easy Kili: Go to Babidi's Spaceship and select one player and stage 2.
Choose Vegeta and go to "Edit Skills". Take out whatever skills he
currently has and replace them with Bulma's Armor and a Senzu Bean. Then,
select custom Vegeta. Next, select Hercule to be your opponent. Go anywhere
you want, but somewhere simple with nothing in the way like the Hyperbolic
Time Chamber is recommended. Then, block the entire time. You can easily
last 500 seconds, and get over 1000 Kili. Repeat this until your meter is
full.
Hint:
Babidi's Spaceship: Restore health: On Babidi's Spaceship, change into Captain Ginyu and your
opponent's character. Go to number 1, and when your health gets into the
red, switch bodies. Then, kill your regular body. After that, switch back
and your health will be back in the green.
Hint:
Red Ribbon Base: Activate Red Ribbon Robot: Go to the Red Ribbon Base and knock your opponent into one of the
generators. A robot will fly out from the ceiling and launch missiles. This
will cause 400 points of damage to your opponent. Knock your opponent
through the large bay doors to fight outside.
Hint:
Dragon World: Extra move turnips: In Dragon World mode, there are extra move turnips that allow you
to move two spaces instead of one. In level 2, where Frieza starts the level
is a hexagon shape, the move turnip is located at the top of the hexagon. In
level 4, move downward and diagonal one space from where Goku starts and
search there. In level 7, the move turnip is where your ally starts. Have
them check the area. In level 9, it is where Goku starts from. Just have him
search there.
Hint:
Dragon World: Faster wins: Play as Goku and give him the following skills:
King Kai Fist x20
Super Saiyan
Super Saiyan 2
Super Saiyan 3
Saiyan Spirit
Warp Kamehameha
Warp Kamehameha
In every fight you can just
power up to 5 Energy Levels, Transform, and press P(2), K(2), Circle.
If they livem you will only need 3 Energy Levels to do it once more.
Hint:
Switching To Goten or Kid Trunks in a duel: Equip Goten or Kid Trunks with the Fusion. While you are
fighting, press P + K + G (Triangle + Square
+ X). You will have all of their moves as if you chose that character
at the start. Note: No transformation is possible.
Hint:
Easy wins: Get a Viral Heart Disease Skill and put it on for support. Then,
get a Vaccine to not make your Power decrease, but your opponent's will.
Just block until their health is in the orange. You should now be able to
defeat them.
When you initiate Burst mode in
battle, instead of just randomly pressing buttons (as the game suggests),
use the palm of your hand to rotate both Analog-sticks either
clockwise or counter-clockwise, depending on which is more comfortable for
you. Note: For optimal performance, use your dominant hand (if you are
right-handed, use your right hand; and if left-handed, use your left).
Go to edit skills and choose
any character. Then put Viral Heart Disease, Vaccine, and Senzu Bean. You
will have one space remaining to put anything desired. If you die even if
using Viral Heart Disease and Vaccine, you always have the Senzu Bean.
When your opponent uses his
special that does not need to be in contact with you (such as Destructo
Disc), if you are far enough away you can press Down + X to
dodge the attack, and then press Over + Circle to shoot your
special, which almost always hits them.
When fighting a short opponent,
kick them into the air. You will be able hit and kick them as if you were
fighting Cell or someone similar.
To defeat any villain easier
(especially Fat Buu, Super Buu, and Kid Buu), choose any character and go to
the skill sheet. Add some good Ki attacks then choose the Vital Heart
Disease. The opponent's health will slowly decrease. The best partners
against Kid Buu are Gohan and Trunks. Use Gohan until Kid Buu does not let
up. On the last health block, use Trunks. Also, the character that defeats
Kid Buu will receive the best attack one would need with that person.
Hint:
Easy characters: To unlock the characters easily, try to complete the Dragon World
(the real game). About every time you defeat a character, you will unlock
the person that you were battling against.
Hint:
All characters: Successfully complete novice and adept modes in tournament and
save the game to a memory card. Get a different memory card with no file
from the game. Complete story mode and go to Mr. Popo's shop. Put the memory
cards in slots one and two. Trade the Dragon Ball from the new saved file on
memory card two to memory card one. Remove both memory cards. Put the memory
card that was in slot two into slot one. You will now have all the
characters from the saved game file on memory card one.
Hint:
Unlock everything: This trick requires two memory cards. Put in memory card A in
slot one. Start a new game, and enable the normal unlock everything code
until you get to 99%, and save. Then, switch memory cards and start a new
game again. Enable the hidden capsule code twice to get two hidden capsules.
Insert memory card A, and trade one of the hidden skills. Then, earn or
cheat for all other skills on memory card B. You should now have two games
with everything unlocked.
Hint:
Acquiring Super Saiyan: Defeat Android 17 (the girl android) with a Saiyan to acquire
Super Saiyan with that character. This works with any Saiyan. This works
with any Saiyan but only in Dragon Ball mode.
Hint:
Continue customizing character: When on Stage 2 on Babidi's ship, you can still customize your
character. Before you continue with Stage 2, add a full Senzu Bean onto you
customized character. After your one bar of life is gone you will use the
Senzu Bean and regain three full bars of life, extending the time that you
can "endure your opponent's attacks".
Hint:
Gain everyone's Devastation move: At the end of Dragon World, defeat Kid Buu With the desired
character to gain their devastation move. For example, Goku's Super Spirit
Bomb, Vegeta's Big Bang Attack, Gohan's Super Kamehemehe, etc.
Hint:

Put anything in the last slot
Hint:
Gohan: Recommended moves:

Hint:
Goku: Recommended moves:
King Kai Fist x20
Super Saiyan
Warp Kamehameaha
Kamehameaha
Spirit Bomb
Continuous Kamehameaha
Meditation
(You should not have other levels of SS because they take up too much
room)
Use the following setup. Charge
until you have five full capsule charge things, then press K(2), Right,
K(2), E. Try to rotate the Left Analog-stick and Right
Analog-stick faster than your opponent and you will be Super Saiyan and
deal 1,980 damage. If your opponent is still up, use Spirit Bomb (Left,
P, P(2), K, E).
King Kai Fist x20
Super Saiyan
Super Spirit Ball
Super Spirit Ball
Spirit Ball
Spirit Ball
Kamehameha
Hint:
Goku: Super Saiyan 2: After defeating the Supreme Kai on the Supreme Kai planet, fight
Vegeta and kill him to receive the Super Saiyan 2 capsule for Goku. You need
four Ki bars to transform into Super Saiyan 2.
Hint:
Gokule: Change appearance: First get the Gokule capsule for either Goku or Hercule. Then,
before selecting either character, first change the appearance to their
alternate costume by pressing Up or Down. Next, select the
character along with the capsule. When you use the fusion and it is
successful, Gokule will appear differently. You can do with other fusions,
but their costume will only change.
Hint:
Goten: Immortal: On the "5" place, chose Kid Trunks and Goten as allies.
Have Goten and Trunks stand at the same location. They will do the spin
power-up and Goten will get +30 defense and trunks will get +30 attack.
There are two more +20 armors on the lower area (the area where you start).
Pick those up and he will be at 210 defense. Then, equip Goten with
Mysterious Vest and he will not be able to be hurt, and you will get all
"Perfects", unless you fight on a location that drains your
health.
Hint:
Goten: Easy wins: Unlock Mysterious Vest and Super Holy Water. Equip them and
something else to Goten. Every time in Dragon World, get Goten as an ally.
Have Goten and Goku stand next to each other. Then, try to get an armor
thing or two. If you get two worth +20%, you will be almost invincible.
Hint:
Goku: Extra defense: Put the following in the capsule slots: Mysterious Vest, Saiyan
Spirit, Ki Flash (optional), and Kamekameha (optional). You will not need to
block because you will have 175% defense.
Note: This also works for
Hercule. Put the following in the capsule slots: Saiyin Spirit (or Hercule's
False Courage), Miracle Power (or Kings Confidence), and the Study Vest
(World Champion Vest). If Super Buu gets the Tien and Yamcha Absorption, you
will be invincible.
Hint
Great Saiyaman: Ki returns: Enter practice mode as Great Saiyaman facing and Krillin (CPU).
Have Great Saiyaman do a Justice Flash. After you charge up the blasts,
press Select three or four times. His Ki energy will be gone, then it
will reappear and come back again.
Hint:
Kid Trunks: Recommended moves:
Super Saiyan (one slot)
Double Buster x2 (one slot each)
Potential (two slots)
Mixed Blood Power (one slot)
Ki Control (one slot)
Hint:
Krillin: Jackhammer Disk attack: Press R2 and wait until you can punch your opponent in
mid-air. Then, use Destructo Disk.
Hint:
Krillin: Kiss from Android 18: Defeat Android 18 as Krillin to get a kiss.
Hint:
Super Saiyan 3 Goku: Defeat Fat Buu the first time you see him, in the level where he
gets resurrected and kills Babidi, with Goku. Super Saiyan 3 requires five
Ki gauges to use. Once you transform your Ki will begin dropping very
quickly. However, Super Saiyan 3 also super-charges your attacks. This means
that Warp Kamehameha and Super Spirit Bomb (and your other attacks such as
Kamehameha and Zanku Fist) will now be even more powerful than they already
were.
Hint:
Teen Gohan: Recommended moves:
Super Saiyan
Super Saiyan 2
Fatherson Kamehameha x2
Potential
Mixed Blood Power
This make him very powerful and
difficult to kill. You can also use Ki-Blast Cannon in place of Dodompa.
Hint:
Trunks: Recommended moves:
Super Saiyan (one slot)
Finish Buster x2 (one slot each)
Potential (two slots)
Mixed Blood Power (one slot)
Ki Control (one slot)
Note: You can replace Ki Control with Super Saiyan 2 for added power.
Use the following for a
near-death move. This will bring your opponent's health down to 1
(3000>1). Using Super Kami Water is recommended.
Super Saiyan
Mixed Blood Power
Trunks' Sword
Super Kami Water or Potential
Burning Slash x2
Use the following for a 2,999
damage move. You just have to hit the opponent once after the Burning Slash.
Super Saiyan
Mixed Blood Power
Trunks' Sword
Super Kami Water
Burning Slash x2
Hint:
Vegeta: Big Bang attack: Defeat Kid Buu as Vegeta on the Supreme Kai's Planet.
Hint:
Vegeta: Recommended moves: Note: Once you are under Babidi's Control, get your Ki Gauge up
to 5 (not very easy) and do Final Explosion. You will hit for 3,00 damage,
which is the highest possible in the game.
Babidi's Mind Control
Super Kami Water
Desperate Resolution
Use the following capsules.
With Angel's Halo on, you will not lose any Ki when you are transformed, so
Bulma's Wish is constantly raising your Ki. You can use techniques other
than Galick Gun, but it is easy to execute and is fairly strong when used at
full power.
SS1
SS2
Galick Gun x2
Angel's Halo
Bulma's Wish
The best moves for Vegeta are
as follows. Even though you only have one real move, you may not need it;
and if you do, Meditation gives you twice as many.
Hint:
Vegita: One Hit K.O.: Use Vegeta and equip Babidi's Mind Control. When you get down to
your last health bar, let the CPU hit you. Make sure you hit the ground.
After you hit the ground, you will see a short FMV sequence and Babidi will
appear and turn you into Majin Vegeta. You now have access to two of the
best moves in the game; Atomic Blast which takes up nearly an entire health
bar, and Final Explosion which is the most powerful attack. If you manage to
pull off Final Explosion, you will get a one hit K.O., even if the CPU is at
full health. However, the charge-up meter for Final Explosion grows
incredibly slow; and unless you fill the meter up completely, the only thing
you will do is destroy Vegeta. To fill up the meter faster, do not rotate
the Analog-sticks. Instead, repeatedly press X. This is the
only way to fill the meter without destroying yourself.
Hint:
Vegeta (Majin form): Recommended moves:
Babidi's Mind Control
Angel's Halo
Galick Gun
Final Flash
Nose Dive Crash/Meteor Break
Hint:
Vegeta (Majin form): Use S Final Explosion without dying: Go to training mode and select "Practice". Choose
Vegeta as your character, add Babidi's Mind Control, and select
"Custom". Then, select any character and add Viral Heart Disease.
Next, add the vaccine and select "Custom". Start the game. Wait
until Vegeta's health gauge is red. Then, let the CPU hit you. You will now
turn into Majin Vegeta. You can practice trying to perfect Majin Vegeta's
final explosion without dying.
Hint:
Videl: Recommended moves:
Eagle Kick
Viral Heart Disease
Vaccine
Falcon Rush x2 (or one Falcon Rush and Meditation)
Videl's Close Call
Hint:
Yamcha: Easy unlocks: Play Stage 3 of Babidi's Spaceship with Yamcha only using Wolf
Fang Fist to unlock Dabura, Majin, Super and Kid Buu along with some of
their moves much faster than if someone else was used.
Hint:
Yamcha-Tien switch: In practice or duel mode, give either Yamcha or Tien their
Tiencha fusion ability. Play with that custom character and press Punch,
Kick and Guard during a match. Yamcha and Tien will switch.
Hint:
Invincible characters: On a level where three characters are playable (Goku, Gohan, and
Goten), take one of the three and walk onto the same space as another one.
They will power up. With the same character, walk onto the same space as the
other one. They will power up again. Next, search for defensive power-ups
and equip Sturdy Vest. By now, these characters' defense should be at 200
(at least). A normal attack will do half of 1 point damage.
Hint:
Defeating Buu: To defeat Buu easily in story mode, use Custom Goku with the
following capsules:
20x King Kai Fist
Super Saiyan
Super Saiyan 2
Kamehameha
Vaccine
Viral Heart Disease
Use your allies to run own
Buu's health. Recommended allies are Piccolo and Vegeta (Galick Gun, S.S. 1
and 2, Meteor Break, Meteor Flash).
Hint:
Defeating Kid Buu: Play as Goten or Kid Trunks. Have them be Super Saiyan and have
two capsules of Kamehameha or Buster Cannon. Also get a quick fire type move
such as Continuous Kamehameha (if Trunks has one). This works well because
if you are tall (like Goku), you will kick over Buu's head.
When fighting Kid Buu for the
final time, first destroy everything outside of his little place. Then, move
your character and your allies all in the place and gang up on him.
Select Goten and Gohan as your
partners. Have Gohan go to Goten. This will give Goten 20 defensive points.
Then, make Goku go to Goten. This will give Goten 30 defensive power-ups
(160 defensive points). Then, go to the carpet that Mr.Popo has close to
where you start. Go to Kid Buu and fight him with Goten. Make sure you have
Super Saiyan and block frequently.
Hint:
Charge special faster: Hold X when charging up for a special to charge faster.
This the only way to get Majin Vegeta's Final Explosion move without getting
destroyed.
Hint:
Powered down: Turn Super Saiyan or Super Namek. While in this form, change to
any character. Notice the character you changed from will be powered down to
normal.
Hint:
Maximum Ki: When you fighting someone, charge your Ki for one second. Then,
press Select and you will have maximum Ki. You can do this as long as
desired.
The best way to get maximum Ki
for Goku and Vegeta is to win their Angel Halos. When you transform into any
form of Super Saiyan or Majin Vegeta, your Ki will not decrease. The only
way for your Ki to go down is if you use an attack such as Spirit Bomb, Big
Bang Attack, or Final Destruction.
To gain Ki faster, press Z.
This is very helpful when you are in the SSJ stages.
Hint:
Lower opponent's Ki faster: Set the taunt (P + K + G + E) to any
of the shoulder buttons (L2 recommended). Then, perform the taunt
during the battle. Your opponent's Ki will drop one level. This is very
useful when preventing your opponent from performing high damage moves or
going Super Saiyan.
Hint:
Continuous and fast Kamehameha meter: Turn you controller vertically and place your hand over both Analog-sticks.
Rotate them both with your hand.
Hint:
Double attacks: Equip two of the same type of beam attacks (such as Galick Gun,
Kamehameha, Buster Cannon, etc.) to your fighter. They will be twice as big
and powerful as before.

Hint:
Move references:
Buu's Long-Arm Punch: King
Piccolo in Dragon Ball.
Android 16's Rocket Punch: Justice League.
Piccolo's Destructive Wave Combo (not the move): Batman Beyond.
Gotenks's Victory Cannon: General Rilldo in Dragon Ball GT.
Android 20's Photon Wave: Android 19 in the original Budokai.
Tien: Dodompa: Spirit Gun in Yu Yu Hakusho.
Frieza's Death Wave: Refers to how people throw a bowling ball.
Hint:
Hidden FMV sequence: On planet Namek, face Captain Ginyu with Vegeta. Do not fight him
while he has the dizzy symbol over his head or you will take two lives and
likely kill him. Instead, beat him once and make him challenge you. If done
correctly, you will see an FMV sequence where Ginyu asks Vegeta to join the
Ginyu Force. Vegeta will reply that he would never do that stupid pose.
Also, after you take away one life and fight him again, Vegeta will tell
Ginyu that the Ginyu Force has been changed to the Vegeta Special Forces and
Captain Ginyu is welcome to join.
Hint:
Whereabouts of the other Ginyu Force members: Fight Captain Ginyu on Namek with Vegeta and he will tell you
that the other Ginyu Force members are on their way to another planet, and
that he and Recoome are all that will be needed to take you down.
Hint:
Recommended controller configuration: Have L1 set to Triangle and X. Keep R1
as it is. Set L2 to Square, Triangle, and X. By
doing this, you can transform and do power moves and throws easier.
Hint: Dragon
Ball GT reference: After the stage where Vegeta get s taken over by Babidi, Freeza
and Cell come back to life. This happens in Dragon Ball GT.
Hint: Dragon
Ball and Dragon Ball Z references: If you look closely when fighting in the Budokai arena, some of
the fans resemble characters from Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z.
For example, Emperor Pilaf and Mai from the original Dragon Ball, and
King Kai.
When you get one of Bulma's
alternate costumes, it will be a black one piece swimming suit with bunny
ears on her head. This is from Dragon Ball, the television show;
Olong gives it to her to wear.
Hint: Dragon
Ball Z Budokai reference: When fighting Kid Buu in Dragon World mode, when he does the
vanishing drop technique it is exactly the same as the Missing Screw move
that Zarbon used in the original Dragon Ball Z: Budokai.
Hint: Power
Rangers reference: When fighting Dr. Gero's colored Saibamen, he calls them Saiba
Rangers. The colors are Blue, Green, Yellow, Red, and Pink and are a
reference to the Power Rangers.
Glitch:
Buy everything easily: Go to the tournament and play under the "Novice"
difficulty setting. Win to get 50,000. Then, go to the shop. Buy something
with the money and while the money is being deducted, quickly select each
one. The money will not stop deducting, allowing you to buy everything with
only 50,000.
Glitch:
Z-sword in rock: On Namak, even after you grab the Z-Sword, it remains in the rock
when fighting.
Glitch:
Wrong voice: When you get the fusion technique for Tiencha equip it to Tien
and Yamcha. Go to training as Yamcha with the custom setting. Press P
+ G + K to switch to Tien then press P + K + G
again and switch back to Yamcha. Use the Kamehameha Wave and "Take
this" will be said in Tien's voice instead of Kamehameha.
Play as Goku or Vegeta and use
the move Potara. If you and your opponent press the same button, the earring
will be destroyed. Do the Kamahamaha or the Galick Gun and you will hear
Vegetto's voice instead of Goku's or Vegeta's.
Play as Trunks and do his
Double Buster move. You will hear him say "Du-du-du-dum!", which
is said when Gotenks does the Victory Cannon. However, because you are
Trunks you should have heard "Double Buster!". This only works if
you have the Fusion capsule on Trunks.
When playing as Perfect form
Cell, oddly enough he will speak in the voice of his form before absorbing
17 and 18.
Sometimes when you absorb
another character. Super Buu's voice changes when you do a certain attack.
Glitch:
Full bar for Android 20: Select Android 20 (Dr. Gero), go to training mode and select
"Practice". Choose any character for the CPU. Set the Ki Blast to
deflect back then use. Press Circle then use Ki Blast Absorption. You
will get one bar full.
Glitch:
Not a move: As Tiencha, press K(2), Right, K, Right,
K, P, E. It will not show any move, but appears as if
you are about to do one.
Glitch:
Time stop: At the main menu, go to options and set your controller settings
to have your taunt at R2. When you battle in Duel or World Tournament
mode, play as Android 17, Android 18, or Cell. As you do an Energy Field
attack (Left + Circle), press R2 immediately before it
happens. This will stop the attack and you will taunt, but freeze the screen
as if you are doing a devastation move. You are now free to move and power
up as desired, but once you do another devastation move, your opponent will
be able to move again. In the World Tournament mode, you can do this and
push the enemy to the edge of the ring. Then, hold Square + Triangle
to knock them off. Cell is recommended for this, as he has the Spirit Bomb
and you can go behind the enemy while they are frozen and execute it. The
ultimate attack is to freeze them, back off slightly, then start shooting
regular energy balls. After about four bars of energy, back up a little more
and do a Kameheha attack with Cell to do 1,820 or more points of damage.
This is the strongest attack in the game besides Vegeta's Final Explosion.
Note: The game may occasionally freeze if this lasts too long.
