Based on the original DRAGON BALL series, Dragon Ball Origins for NDS is
the latest edition to the Dragon Ball franchise. Players will experience
a thrilling adventure that is more fun and lighthearted compared to later
Dragon Ball stories. Gamers can collect the 7 Dragon Balls while traveling
around with their CPU controlled partner, Bulma, who is protected by the
character Goku. In the shoes of Goku, the player must protect Bulma from
incoming enemy attacks using special skills, such as fighting with his
power pole, or unleashing a kamehameha. Combined with Bulma’s ability to
invent machines and weapons, the intrepid pair make a formidable team able
to defeat even the strongest enemies or trickiest of obstacles. If either
is defeated it is game over!

The innovative controls mean the player uses only the touch pad to control
Goku. Players must draw lines or shapes to direct the character and control
the action by tapping on the screen, for example a double tap on Goku
followed by tapping on the Ka-me-ha-me-ha letters unleashes his
devastating signature move.
