Goku’s punches don’t always connect when or where they should, whiffing too many for comfort.

Coupled with poor hit boxes on most enemies, this makes combat feel frustratingly imprecise. His movement is stiff, arbitrarily locked to four directions. Poor game feel is one of Legacy of Goku’s biggest problems. Gameplay is made up of mundane side quests - find the egg, find the rocks, find the porn - with painfully stiff controls that fail to emulate the series’ elegantly choreographed action in any meaningful capacity. To say that LoG does not capture the action-packed energy of Dragon Ball Z would be an understatement. Then there’s The Legacy of Goku, a Game Boy Advance action RPG that butchered its source material and squandered its genre’s potential in an incredibly formative year for Dragon Ball. The original Dragon Ball anime was in the midst of adapting the Red Ribbon Army arc, Dragon Ball Z made it halfway through its final arc, Legendary Super Warriors adapted all of DBZ into a deck-based RPG for the Game Boy Color, and Budokai 1 captured the spirit of the anime in an endearing - if rough around the edges - PS2 fighter that fans still look back on fondly today. Revisiting Dragon Ball Z: The Legacy of GokuĢ002 was a big year for the Dragon Ball franchise in North America.
