Its really weird how little acknowledgment the Original Db gets in most games!
Youz might rightly say doesnt the Original db get little Acknowledgment in general?
While yeah it does not get that much attention it still gets more than Movies like the turles and slug one!
I mean Dragonball Xenoverse 2 has over 90 Chracters and loads of Costumes yet none of them are from Dragonball?
Same with Fighterz which had classic Db Goku as one of the mosrt wanted but still they added Gt goku Weird right?
Whats your Opinion on this?

I also noticed how nothing from the first arc of Gt makes it into DBZ Games not even Rildo!
Im on Episode 21 BTW!

The first arc of GT is the main reason it initially did poorly in Japan. It's smart that they ignore it.

Anyways, most OG Dragon Ball fighters can't fly so making them work in the games is difficult but you do get some OG Dragon Ball love with the mobile games so there's that.

But they do Stuff like Including Slug who is Just a Ripoff From DEmon King Piccolop and is from a Movie that was a Cash grab

And The Whole Flying Bit Shouldnt be A Problem for The Current DBZ GAmes Xenoverse has ZTime Manipulation as a Excuse and DBFZ takes Mostly Place on the Ground

Also WHy For Example is Chao Zu Not Playable after all He Can Fly? And Is More Important than Guldo!

Those GBA games were epic imo; there was one based on Kid Goku which was cool. Hair colors seem to be DB bread and butter now and days.

This is a good point, but FighterZ did make Roshi work without making him be able to fly, so I do think they could've gotten at least proper Kid Goku in there (or they could've just had him use Nimbus).

I can't say the lack of OG Dragon Ball really bothers me too much, I don't think most of them are fit for the fighting games and most of my favourite Dragon Ball characters are also in Z, but I did hate how FighterZ gave us Goku (GT), rather than Kid Goku or SSJ4 Goku. Felt like trying to get a best of both worlds representation but kinda just made it disappointing. If I want to play as a little Goku, I want OG Goku. If I want to play as Goku from GT, I want to play SSJ4. Didn't like how they handled him.

To be fair i would even say that GT Goku isnt even a good Representation of GT Kid Goku i mean Gt Base Ku uses tons of Ki Blasts burt you cant do that in fighterz!
Still i rather have Gt Kid Goku Instead of only SS4 Gt Goku!
I would be fine with both Gt SS4 Goku and Classic Kid Goku Tho!

FighterZ doesn't have actual flight mechanics so it was able to work although Roshi struggles a bit because of he lacks the jankiness of super dash.

Right but the point stands that if they want to they can work around it. Like how the older Budokai games gave Hercules a jetpack. I'm mostly just saying FighterZ should've been able to add a proper Kid Goku just fine.

I made a Bit of a Moveset for Goku in this case He Uses the Nmibus to superdash until hes Down Heavied after that he reverts to using reverse Kame HAme ha like Roshi!
