The Mystery of Shenlong
System: Famicom
Release Date: November, 1986
The first ever Dragon
Ball game! Kick and punch your way alongside Goku and Bulma
in this action game as they journey for the 7 Dragon Balls to
summon Shenlong.
This game is the
same as Dragon Power in the US, except that there is no censorship
or nonsensical character and plot changes. Some of the music was changed for the American
version, too. The title screen and between stage screens play
the old Dragon Ball theme song in this version. It is
an action game in which you play the part of Goku and roam around,
fighting though the first couple of seasons from the show. The
screen shots to the right are from the same parts of the game as the ones I took for the
American version, so that you can compare them to Dragon Power.
All in all, it's
not a great game, but it was the beginning of the entire Dragonball
video game phenomenon, so I think it's worth owning.
