===================
1). Introduction
===================
  The Dragonball Z series has been an enormous hit in Japan, and then when it
made its way to the United States, was made an equally big bang. It is
currently on Cartoon Networks Toonami, and merchandise and other video games
including this one have all been great success's. Video's that go farther into
the DBZ timleline than seen on television can also be purchased.
  This game was very popular, for the limited number of people who were lucky
enough to get there hands on it. The game picks up around the time Goku and
Picollo are fighting eachother, before they became friends. They face enemies
all the way through until the epic battle with Cell.
  Graphic wise the game was very ahead of its time, although it was only a
preview of what games we would soon see after in some of the other Dragonball
games, The only problem with the game was how hard and expensive it is to
acquire, usually having to be imported and usually not for a price under 50 or
60 dollars.


======================
2). Game Information
======================
Genre: Fighting
Release Date: 3/20/93

=====================
3). Basic Controls
=====================
- X Button: Allows you to fly up into the sky, or to land on the
ground. This is only possible when the split screen is on. This cannot
be done when both fighters are on the same screen.

- A Button: Is what throws your basic fireball. It is a burst of energy
that go across the screen and hits your opp. Note, it has a limited range. It
can also be used in some combination moves.

- B Button: This is your basic kick. Can later be used in some combos.

- Y Button: This is the punch button, it can be used to do some combos
Like the Y button.

- Start Button: Pauses and unpauses the game, is used to highlight options.

- Left+Right Buttons: Allows you to fly forward or back really fast.
Caution, it takes a second to stop so you will be helpless for a sec.

- Select Button: This isn't used in fighting. But when the game is paused
pressing it will bring up the options key.

So in short:
Y:Punch
B:Kick
X:Ground or sky
A:Fireball
R:Fly forward/back
L: Same as R

======================
4). Character Guide
======================

---------
 Goku
---------
  Goku is one of the last of the saiyajin race. His planet was destroyed by
Freeza, while he was away from it. His father, Bartok was killed trying to
defend his planet against Freeza. Goku was on earth while this happened so he
didn't find out until Vegeta died. While he was on the planet earth,Goku was
hit in the head. This is why he does not have the Saiyajin instinct to fight
like Vegeta does. He met Bulma when she hit him with her car. Since then he has
made many friends. After the defeat of Raditz,his older brother, Goku and the
rest of hisfriends defeated Napa and Vegeta. After this he wentto Snake road
with Kami to train for the battle withFreeza. In the battle with Freeza Krillin
is killed, the loss of his best friend drove him  over the edge. He then
transformed into a SuperSaiyajin level 1. After this he defeats Freeza and
narrowly escapesthe exploding planet of Namek.
 In the game, Goku is by far the most powerful player. He is only selectable at
certain time though.

---------
 Gohan
---------
   Gohan is the son of Goku. He has more fighting potential than anyone but
never really reaches it.At first he is spoiled, but then Piccolo takes the
young Saiyajin. The begin preparing for the arrivalof Napa and Vegeta. During
this period Piccolo and Gohan become life long friends, even if Piccolo won't
show it. Also during this time, Gohan turns into a Giant Ape, beacause he still
has his tail.
   When the time comes for the Earth Warriors to fight Napa and vegeta Gohan
really doesn't do anything. He to will become a super saiyajin like his father.
But when he grows up he becomes this stupid super hero guy. What a waste of
power.

-----------
 Piccolo
-----------
  Piccolo is a Namek. His father spit out his egg right before he was killed a
fight. This is why Piccolo has never been to his home planet. At first
he is a bad guy but now he is a Z Fighter. He is the one who hold of Freeza
long enough for Goku to get up his Spirit bomb attack. Piccolo does not show
his emotions. He is also the one that delivered the death blow to Raditz. He
has the ability to regenerate his body parts if they are destroyed.
   He saves Gohan in the battle with Napa and Vegeta. When he goes to King
Kai's he refused to train with the others but managed to get wished back by
Gohan. Piccolo is a never say die fighter,which got him killed. Overall he is a
good fighter.

-----------
 Krillin
-----------
   Krillin is an earthling. He was trained by Master Roushi in exchange for an
xxx Magazine. His inner power was later unlocked by Guru. Krillin , Gohan and
Dende are responsible for Piccolo being wished back to earth.
   He really didn't anything to the Ginew Team, and even after Guru he is still
pretty weak. In the battle with Freeza he is killed, atleast he was the cause
of Goku going SS.

----------
 Vegeta
----------
  Vegeta is my favorite character. He is a Saiyajin, and a mean one at that. He
is resposible for the deaths of hundreds of creatures.As a child he was taken
away from his father by Freeza. He was prince of all Saiyajins. He was forced
to
do Freeza's bidding or else he would kill his father. Vegeta, Napa and Raditz
conquered planet after planet for Freeza. After the deaths of Napa and Raditz,
Vegeta starts looking for the Dragonballs so he can gain Immortality. He is
also responsible for the deaths of Jace, Guildo and Zarbon.
  When he is killed by Freeza he spills his heart out to Goku. He also
destroyed about 1/4 of Namek.

--------
 Tien
--------
 Tien is a human with a third eye. He is always with chaizo. When chaizo is
killed he launches a huge attack and almost kills Napa, the saiyajin. Tien has
the ability to split into Four illusions of himself and they all shoot a beam.
He proves to be a very strong fighter towards the end, but is never any match
for the fights Goku usually has to handle.

--------
 Nail
--------
   He is a Namek. He combines with Piccolo on Namek. He stalls Freeza so Dende
can get the Password to the Dragonballs. He is 95%identical to Piccolo. He was
the strongest Namekian Fighter other than Picollo, having a Power Level of over
40,000, he was Guru's most watchful protector, as well as a good friend to
Dende.


----------
 Yamcha
----------
  Yamcha is a Goku look alike. He was with Bulma, until his death in the fight
against Napa and Vegeta. He has a scar over his eye and is very arrogant, even
though he is pretty weak compared to the saiyajins. He was also at one time a
baseball player, I am not sure what league he was in, but he was apparently a
superstar, because he used his super human fighting skills and strength while
he played baseball, mainly hitting HR's. But he always prefers a good fight
anyday.


----------
 Chaizo
----------
Chaizo is that little guy that looks like a doll. He has no real moves and is
pretty worthless. All he does is drain energy. He also gets killed trying to
destroy Napa by self destructing on his shoulder. The blast barely scratched
Napa. He is the emporer of something (not sure) he is always weaker than
everyone else, although he is stronger than most humans.

----------
 Raditz
----------
Brother of Goku, helped Napa and Vegeta conquer planets. He is also the
Son of Bartok. He was killed when he fought Goku and Piccolo. He warned them of
the two Saiyajins on their way to earth. He was un-aware of Gohans sleeping
rage of power and was caught by surprise, this gave Picollo and Goku a chance
to work together and kill Radditz, even though he was considered a weakling by
Napa and Vegeta, he still had a power level of 1,000, and that was pretty
strong for the time they were fighting in.

-------
Napa
-------
He was Vegeta best friend until Vegeta killed him because he said he was to
weak. He helped Vegeta in the battle against earths final forces. He Is the
really big bald headed guy that destroys the air force.

--------
Zarbon
--------
Freeza's first henchman, he has the ability to transform onto a stronger
monster. He is killed by Vegeta on Namek. He was present when
Freeza destroyed planet Vegeta and killed Vegeta's father.

--------
Freeza
--------
Only second to SS Goku. He has 4 stages each more powerful than the next. He is
killed be Goku on Namek. His father is King Cold. Freeza Is very arrogant and
uses his tail to gain an advantage. But he was no match for the Super Saiyajin.

-------------
Ginew Force
-------------
 Jace,Recoome,Burte,Guildo and Cpt. Ginew form the Ginew force. They are
Like Freeza's little special task force. Each extremely powerful, but
They were easily defeated by Vegeta and SS Goku.
